Inchon

Description

On 25 June, 1950, North Korea surprised the world by sending ten divisions south across the 38th parallel into the Republic of Korea (ROK). Within three days, they had captured Seoul, sending shocked and demoralized ROK units falling back across the country. In the desperate weeks that followed, it was a race against time as the North Korean People’s Army (NKPA) pushed south, hoping to overwhelm ROK forces before sufficient reinforcements could arrive. Initially, US troops from Japan rushed to the peninsula to secure the critical southern port of Pusan (now Busan). For weeks, the war was touch-and-go, until Gen. Douglas MacArthur launched a bold amphibious assault at the western port city of Inchon. This historic turning movement caused the North Korean attack to collapse, radically changing the war.
