Summary
U.S. Soldiers from 501st Sustainment Brigade, 19th Expeditionary Sustainment Command, and 201st Commando Brigade, 2nd Operational Command and other leaders commemorated one of the fiercest battles of the Korean War with historical re-enactments and ceremonies Sept. 24-26 in Waegwan, South Korea, before an audience of more than 1,500 Korean War veterans and nearly 20,000 others in attendance. As North Korean forces advanced south in the fall of 1950, waging a vicious war, the nation of South Korea and the United Nations forces were pushed to a small southeastern area on the tip of the Korean peninsula, known as the Pusan perimeter, where they would stand to defend the suddenly prominent Nakdong River, later to be known as the "pivot" of the Korean War.
