Thanks!

No. The US dropped two nuclear bombs in WWII on Japan but none were used in the Korean war unless they were very small and kept secret. It is very difficult to hide a nuclear weapon blast.

No nuclear have only ever been used once by the Americans against Japan in WW2. Although they have often been criticized by the anti brigade, it is one reason why there has not been a major war since then. There are only a few countries in the nuclear club America, Britain, France,Russia,Israel, China, Pakistan and India.Too many in my opinion but nobody dare use the bomb as it would be the end of the world as we know it.

No, they did not use any Atomic weapons in Korea, BUT General MacArthur did want to use them and was restrained by President Truman, and then sacked by Truman.
