3 - They came from the north
from Wars That Shaped The World · host Goalhanger
They came out of the gloom of the Manchurian winter, bugles blowing, and swept all before them – the Chinese had arrived and once again the Korean War took a dramatic turn. The threat of China’s Red Army had been dismissed by General MacArthur, but it proved a catastrophic mistake. The United Nations force was swept out of North Korea, a humbling for MacArthur as his forces endured the worst retreat in US military history.
