| #5 #3 As I recall the Marine commander, General O.P. Smith, when he was asked why the landing was so successful, replied that "it was done by professionals", i.e., the USMC and the USN. The Chinese might want to ponder that comment before they launch the million-man swim. |

| #4 The more I read about the landings the more ...Insane choosing it as an invasion site. Looking at The Big Mapâ„¢ it is an obvious choice -- all, repeat all the communication routes cross between Inchon and Seoul. Take that nexus and supply to the south is near impossible, but taking the place is so hard the North Koreans barely garrisoned at all. |
