[New-Poetry] Re: Where are the war poets?

[David Graham]

Etheridge Knight served in Korea as a medic, I believe.  Was badly  
wounded, and got hooked on narcotics, which in turn led to him going  
to prison.  Though he wrote many poems about his prison experiences,  
I'm not aware of any about his war experience, and only a couple that  
glancingly refer to Korea.
