"They deserve the respect of having the flag they fought and died under, U.N. Police Action or not, draping their flags."

Which is precisely the point. Whether you like it or not, they fought under the UN flag. This is historically accurate and appropriate.

Most of those soldiers were fighting for the U.S., not the U.N..

“This is historically accurate and appropriate.”

Historically accurate? Unfortunately, yes. Appropriate? No. Those Americans probably did not like the idea of being policemen and cannon fodder for the UN bureaucrats. But it is a convenient face saving dodge from the North Koreans.
