Description
On June 25, 1950, most Americans barely noticed the headlines about civil unrest in Korea, unaware that this distant peninsula would soon become the backdrop for one of the most significant military campaigns in U.S. history, marked by tremendous sacrifice in both lives and resources. The Marines of the 1st Brigade, renowned for their expertise in amphibious assaults, were called to demonstrate their adaptability in intense ground combat. Throughout the fierce battles within the Pusan Perimeter‚Aîadvancing south toward Sachon and engaging the enemy twice along the Naktong River‚Aîthese courageous Marines steadfastly held their ground, only retreating when commanded. Their exceptional performance during the harrowing days of the Pusan Perimeter not only solidified their role as vital contributors to the United Nations forces but also earned them enduring respect and recognition for their Corps. - Summary by Montross and Canzana and Lemuel Shepherd
