Dodd Seizure at Koje Island Sparks Military Critique
General Dodd's capture on Koje Island exposed a flawed policy of meeting prisoners at gates rather than moving POWs to guarded offices. Pace's letter warned of Communist propaganda hindering Panmunjom talks and urged action by General Clark to restore order. Colson secured Dodd's release without bloodshed but faced risks, while Koje troops reinforced with the 187th Airborne, an 8th Army tank battalion, and tightened barricades and fortifications.
