Not even a guess? C'mon!
You figured out the one that was nothing but a wall with a few holes in it. Compared to that this picture is teeming with clues!

How about Korean war?

mTk · May 7, 2017

@steve knows his black & white photos re the Korea guess.

So,
How many hills were fought over in the Korean War........dunno, so that's about as far as I can get other than saying that it was sometime between 1950 and 1953.

Hope someone else can enlighten us all.

Heartbreak Ridge?

mTk · May 7, 2017

Nope.

Ulvjager · May 7, 2017

If its not Heartbreak Ridge, is it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Bloody_Ridge?

mTk · May 8, 2017

Good guess. I came close to selecting that one, but incorrect.
A little more help.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Pork_Chop_Hill? Is that Gregory Peck perchance?

mTk · May 8, 2017

Absolutely! I was a big Peck fan back in the day. Not many better war movies ever made than "Pork Chop Hill"!
"Why is that, mTk"?
"Because there are no girls in the entire movie, that's why"!
