Books
This study casts light on the tactics, weapons, and combat effectiveness of the US Marines and North Korean soldiers who fought one another in August and September 1950. Equipped with Soviet tanks and bolstered by a cadre of combat veterans returning from the Chinese Civil War, North Korea's army launched its surprise offensive against the Republic of Korea on 25th June 1950; within days Seoul had fallen and the majority of South Korea's divisions had been shattered.
