IMEX 529 Us Army Korean War 1:72

The Korean War (1950-1953) was fought between the troops of South Korea, supported - on behalf of the United Nations - by American, Australian and British troops, and the troops of the DPRK, i.e. North Korea, supported more or less officially by the USSR and the PRC. Infantry, of course, was the largest type of US armed force fighting in Korea. The US Army and USMC sent several infantry, infantry and marines divisions to Korea, including: 2nd Infantry Division, 7th Infantry Division and 1st Marine Division. The main strike force of the infantry division were three regiments of infantry, supported by divisional artillery and various types of support units (e.g. sappers, communication and logistics). On average, in 1950-1951, the division had between 12,500-13,650 officers and soldiers. Over time, the division structure turned out to be ineffective and the infantry units were reorganized into brigade formations, relatively well saturated with artillery, communications and sapper units.
