war in korea. so, the next several slides i just want to demonstrate most of the military activity on the peninsula. in part to show how it ranged all the way across. so the war officially begins on june 25, 1950, when north korean forces move across the d.m.z., it was not the d.m.z. at that point, it was a temporary demarcation line between the northern government and the southern government in the hopes that at some point soon, the korean people would be able to elect a single government. in any case, the north korean army moves past -- across the demarcation line and captures seoul and moves into south korean territory. within a few weeks, the north koreans have moved all the way down to what is called the perimeter. so they have all but eliminated the south korean army and its ability to retaliate against them and this is what brings the united nations into the war. september 15, we have operation cromite. this is mc-rgter's quite brilliant plan to, rather than pushing entirely by land and tryi
