Captioned: "A Korean orphan boy adopted by a motor pool battalion at Inchon, Korea and nursed back to health. He is called "Number One" by the boys of the motor pool." The Korean War had a tremendous impact on the growth of orphanages. It has been estimated that over 100, 000 homeless and parentless children were left in the war's wake. By the end of 1954 there were over 400 registered orphanages in the Republic of Korea, almost all of them sustained in great part by donations from US Armed Forces personnel. During 1954 the orphanage population was still growing by over one thousand children a month as children came in off the streets. Photograph credited to USN June 6, 1951.
