In September 1945 a line of 11 U S Navy transports moved to Inchon as Americans aided Korea's move toward a democratic government. While U S troops aided disarmament and repatriation of Japanese and assisted Korean governance, Russians quickly set up a puppet regime in the North, clashing with U S efforts over the 38th parallel and delaying joint surveys. American forces numbered about 72,000 in the South, but Russian forces ranged from 220,000 to 360,000 and helped mold the North Korean crisis.
