The first US forces in Korea after they invaded were Americans occupying Japan, which was a cake deployment.

They weren't prepared at all.

they pretty much got pushed right the ocean didnt they

around pusan i think

By July 1, American combat boots were on the ground, in the form of Task Force Smith—a scratch force commanded Lt. Col. Charles Smith that was centered around two understrength rifle companies from the Twenty-First Infantry Regiment of the Twenty-Fourth Infantry Division. The scratch force had just over four hundred officers and men, plus a few 105-millimeter howitzers from attached artillery battalion. It had no tanks, no close air support and poor communications. Instead of the latest antitank rocket launchers, most of its tank-killing firepower consisted of 2.36-inch bazookas that hadn’t even been able to destroy German tanks five years before.

bloody hell

the korean war was all kinds of fucked

the terrain was hellish

MASH made it seem comfy

We had Nukes so the bugmen in charge decided it was time to gut everything else.

Hell, even right now our tactics are tech only

imagine if macarthur got his wish

and they nuked beijing

We dont really have tactics

Assumed infantry would just mop up after strategic bombing.

Strategic nuclear bombing that is

rip SAC

Btw thank commie kikes for making nuclear armageddon possible.

Rosenbergs smuggling nuke secrets

@NSJW unfortunately that concept is still in the forefront thanks to gulf war

muh shock and awe

who needs infantry to hold ground

im reminded of the war in kosovo

the serbians had like 6 triple A emplacements that kept moving around

that kept back a significant portion of NATOs airpower

it was pathetic

It works when it works

works very well against low morale conventional forces with large numbers like iraq

WHERE THE FUCK IS LAST NIGHTS SWEAT

On paper iraq was very strong

Read h jon poole

But we carved them up and they folded

Basically, one specially trained soldier can absolutely dick over technologically superior armies depending on the strategies

What should i read of his

Phantom soldier and tigers way
