description In the summer of 1950 the United States asked Italy for a military contribution, even symbolic, to be used in the war in Korea.

After the armistice was signed, Italy decided to quickly withdraw the hospital, despite local requests to stay, showing little interest in developing a political and economic presence in the Far East.
