Did Communists Gain by Halting Peace Talks
A detailed assessment from the Eighth Army in Korea notes that nearly 80,000 Chinese and North Korean soldiers have been killed wounded or captured since peace talks broke off on August 23. Allied losses remain undisclosed, with up to 250 square miles of North Korea gained by the Allies. The piece summarizes the high price paid and argues the Communist setback likely reduces but does not eliminate the possibility of renewed offensives, suggesting the armistice talks could resume may come closer.
