Women at War
• Women played a big role during WW2• They replaced men in many industries,
including warfare• Women were not treated equally
![Page 13: War Correspondence By: Charley Xi Arthur Man Nelson Lewis Jack Hyslop](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062719/568131ce550346895d983653/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• Women gained Power• They were every where, even in the Military• Even gave name to their own Air Force—WAAF
![Page 14: War Correspondence By: Charley Xi Arthur Man Nelson Lewis Jack Hyslop](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062719/568131ce550346895d983653/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Governments used women to Hire Soldiers
• The Governments were not afraid of the Correspondents, one of the reason was that they learnt how to provoke women to be used as “Propagandas”
![Page 15: War Correspondence By: Charley Xi Arthur Man Nelson Lewis Jack Hyslop](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062719/568131ce550346895d983653/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Women craved For Power
• During WW2, women had power they have never possessed before
• They learnt that if men returned, their power will be gone.
• Government conveyed a huge amount of power to women, letting them enjoy all the privilege that enjoyed.
![Page 16: War Correspondence By: Charley Xi Arthur Man Nelson Lewis Jack Hyslop](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062719/568131ce550346895d983653/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Objective was to let them feel the fall of social status as much as possible.
![Page 17: War Correspondence By: Charley Xi Arthur Man Nelson Lewis Jack Hyslop](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062719/568131ce550346895d983653/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• Therefore, women would and did encourage men to go back to war.
• Correspondents had only a little influence
• The objective of the Government was
Achieved

“As young men increasingly immured in the muck and blood of the battlefields, increasingly abandoned by the civilization of which they had ostensibly been heirs, women seemed to become, as if by some uncanny swing of history’s pendulum, ever more powerful.”
-----Vera Brittain
![Page 19: War Correspondence By: Charley Xi Arthur Man Nelson Lewis Jack Hyslop](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062719/568131ce550346895d983653/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• How else can we explain that amazing outburst in August 1914, when the daughters of educated men who had been educated thus rushed into hospitals, some still attended by their maids, drove lorries, worked in fields and munitions factories, and used all their immense stores of charm, of sympathy, to persuade young men that to fight was heroic, and that the wounded in battle deserved all her care and all her praise? The reason lies in that same education. So profound was her unconscious loathing for the education of the private house with its cruelty, its poverty, its hypocrisy, its immorality, its inanity that she would undertake any task however menial, exercise any fascination however fatal that enabled her to escape. Thus consciously she desired 'our splendid Empire'; unconsciously she desired our splendid war.
--------Virginia Woolf

Brief Overview• 1950-1953• Between the Republic of Korea• Result of political division of Korea
![Page 22: War Correspondence By: Charley Xi Arthur Man Nelson Lewis Jack Hyslop](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062719/568131ce550346895d983653/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
War Correspondence• Media freedom was strict for fear of a more
intense war, as well as demoralizing Korean civilians
• However, some reporters were very “free” to do whatever they wanted
![Page 23: War Correspondence By: Charley Xi Arthur Man Nelson Lewis Jack Hyslop](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062719/568131ce550346895d983653/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Leaflets• Leaflets, or flyers, were one
source of media that proved advantageous to, for example, the South Koreans
• They threatened the North Koreans
• They demoralized enemy troops• More importantly, they were to
give hope and confidence to the South Koreans
• Some quotes were, “good soilder-bad leaders”, “We shall give you every support.”
![Page 24: War Correspondence By: Charley Xi Arthur Man Nelson Lewis Jack Hyslop](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062719/568131ce550346895d983653/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Broadcasts
• Very similar to leaflets• They also instilled fear among enemy troops• The messages reached a considerable amount
of audience, which stirred some opposition• Many Chinese enlisted men believed such
messages.
![Page 25: War Correspondence By: Charley Xi Arthur Man Nelson Lewis Jack Hyslop](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062719/568131ce550346895d983653/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Outcome of media influence
• Leaflets proved effective at the end of the Korean War
• One in three Communist Chinese prisoners were compelled to surrender via the leaflets
![Page 26: War Correspondence By: Charley Xi Arthur Man Nelson Lewis Jack Hyslop](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062719/568131ce550346895d983653/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Wilfred Burchett• A key reporter during the
Korean War• Often known for covering
news from the “other side” of the battlefield
• He had great bias in his reports
• Many of his facts, were actually fiction
• Fickle in his communications
• In a sense, he was a very “loose” form of media
![Page 27: War Correspondence By: Charley Xi Arthur Man Nelson Lewis Jack Hyslop](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062719/568131ce550346895d983653/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Frank Gibney, Keyes Beech, Burton Crane
• Not much is about them• They were war correspondents who
reported on the rapid developments of war
• All three were together during the Korean War
• They had to retreat to safer spots in order to continue observing
• Unknowingly, they were to be part of one of the disasters of the Korean War
• Unlike Burchett, these three reported truthfully the events that occurred

• In Conclusion War Correspondents were always present during WW1, WW2 and the Korean War, and they all had profound influence on the War and people’s way of thought.
• Most risked their life for their passion of revealing to the outside world the Real War rather than the Virtual Wars the Media portrayed.
