In the archives of the Belgian foreign ministry, a unique letter was discovered recently. A woman in her 20s had written the Belgian armed forces to volunteer as a medic for the Korean War.
It was a hand-written note dated August 19, 1950 by Flore Jean-Pierre. She seemed to be aware of Belgium’s decision at the time to dispatch a battalion to fight in the Korean War. Jean-Pierre noted that she completed a first-aid training course and wanted to devote herself to her country because it was small and not always backed up. Investigators are still finding out whether she was successful in her request.
