1 Several of the cases referred to in the text involved the Korean conflict in the early 1950’s. Only Hammond v. National Life & Ace. Ins. Co., supra, involved Vietnam. The conflicting views are fully set forth in the majority and dissenting opinions in Beley v. Pennsylvania Mutual Life Ins. Co., 373 Pa. 231, 95 A.2d 202 (1953), involving substantially the same question as that before us, and New York Life Ins. Co. v. Bennion, supra, involving a somewhat different question. A text writer far surpasses the acerbity of the dissenting judges. 1A J. A. and J. Appleman, Insurance Law and Practice § 561 at 381 (1965).
