Summary |
From the U.S. Army's The Big Picture television series, 1950-1975. "As filmed by combat cameramen of the Army Signal Corps, the history of the "Tropic Lightening" Division in Korea is told ... this film presentation follows the battle from a perimeter defense in the north near Sangju, through a dramatic shift under cover of darkness of 150 miles south to meet the Pusan-bent enemy, and back up the Korean Peninsula. ... As the war progressed, excellent footage was taken of the division on the outskirts of Seoul in January, 1951, as U.N. troops retired from the city. With the start of Armistice negotiations in July 1951, the division took up defenses along "The Iron Triangle." Here, cameras caught the searchlight company in action, psychological warfare in extensive use, and finally, in May, 1953, the division's last major battle."--National Archives and Records Administration |
