Kagnew Battalion : ウィキペディア英語版 | Kagnew Battalion
The Ethiopian Kagnew Battalions ((アムハラ語:ቃኘው)) were three successive battalions drawn from the 1st Division Imperial Bodyguard sent by Emperor Haile Selassie I between June 1951 and April 1954 as part of the United Nations forces in the Korean War. Even after the armistice, a token Ethiopian force remained in the country until 1965. Altogether, 3,158 Ethiopians served in Kagnew Battalions during the war.〔 ==Naming== "Kagnew" was the name of the warhorse of Ras Makonnen, Menelik II's General and the father of Haile Selassie during the First Italo-Ethiopian War.〔Edwards, Paul M. ''To Acknowledge a War: The Korean War in American Memory''. 2000, page 117.〕 Military units from Imperial times would often adopt a name of a favored military commander and Ethiopian Warriors were often referred to interchangeably by the names of their war horses.
