The First Forty Days
On June 25, 1950, North Korean forces attacked South Korean positions south of the 38th parallel. U.S. President Truman ordered air, sea and land armed services to give support to the overrun South Korean army and people.

The Turning Of The Tide
After six weeks of holding the last position in Korea, the Pusan Perimeter, the 95,000 men defending it were looking for a way out. The actions that followed appeared to turn the tide of the war.

The New War

The Peace Saga
The beginning of the end began when all parties agreed with the Red Cross to exchange sick and wounded prisoners as a "gesture of peace." When Joseph Stalin died, the Allies were convinced that at long last, the Communists were looking for a peaceful solution.
