Korea War Near End Sees Seoul Captured by UN Forces
After three bloody months the Korea conflict neared its end with the capture of Seoul, the 500 year old Korean capital, and the junction of UN troops from Inchon and Pusan. The invasion begun with Seoul’s fall, then a UN beachhead period, then the Inchon assault and push toward the 38th parallel. Mopping up fights and anticipated guerrilla resistance followed as the UN considered crossing the 38th parallel. Dr. Ralph Bunche won the 1950 Nobel Peace Prize for mediating Palestine peace, with details on his career and remarks. The article also covers Truman’s veto of the Communist control bill, congressional filibuster, and the bill’s provisions on registration and powers.
