THE WORD “BRAINWASHING” ENTERED THE DICTIONARY IN THE FIFTIES
Many months back I wrote an article which touched on the technique of “brainwashing.” Decided to write about it again as a result of all that is happening currently, politically and educationally.
These are events as I recall them in the fifties. The Korean war was in full force. I was married to a military officer, who was in Air-Sea Rescue flying those large banana-shaped helicoptors. He was ordered for a tour of duty in Korea, where he spent a year in air-sea rescue, frequently going behind enemy lines to rescue wounded American soldiers.
