Today:
Welcome to this week's instalment of /r/AskHistorians' Sunday Digest (formerly the Day of Reflection). Nobody can read all the questions and answers that are posted here, so in this thread we invite you to share anything you'd like to highlight from the last week - an interesting discussion, an informative answer, an insightful question that was overlooked, or anything else.
I really enjoyed /u/Imperial_Affectation's answer on why Turkey sent so many soldiers to the Korean war
Weekly rundown:
/u/vonadler on "Just how important was Gustavus Adolphus in military history? What were his major innovations in the art of war?"
/u/pitchblack23 on "What's the deal with Damascus Steel?"
/u/svendskov answered about Zhang Heng's seismoscope
I very much enjoyed Waritter's posts on the secondary market for armor in 14th and 15th century europe.
I always enjoy reading about new stuff about the Czech Republic/Prague so this tickled my fancy: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/3hrcal/who_was_in_charge_of_prague_in_1440/
