A Fusilier Patrol on the Hook in Korea 1953 | Memories of the Korean War

Mike Mogridge is a veteran of the Royal Fusiliers and served during the Korean War. In this film he remembers one patrol to a place called "Green Fingers" on the Hook north of Seoul. This is a short film of a patrol that got into trouble and from which the patrol members were lucky to return. In telling this story Mike takes us through the risks that a young fusilier from Peckham in London faced on a daily basis during that war. The Royal Fusiliers amalgamated with three other fusilier regiments, the Royal Northumberland Fusiliers, the Royal Warwickshire Fusiliers and the Lancashire Fusiliers in 1968 to create the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers. This film is part of their regimental project to gather and tell the stories of fusiliers who have served across the world.
