The Korean War, fought from 25 June 1950 till 27 July 1953, is sometimesdescribed as the Forgotten War. Coming soon after WWII had ended, it sawNorth Korea take on South Korea, which was supported by the USA and 21members of the United Nations. Within two months of North Korea’sinvasion, allied forces were on the point of defeat after havingretreated within the Pusan Perimeter. A daring US amphibious assault atIncheon set North Korean forces back on their heels, and the battlehenceforth seesawed back and forth. An armistice ended the conflict,whichwas one of the most destructive in modern times. Approximately 3 million fatalities occurred, of which most were civilians.
