Americans Repel NK Raid Near Panmunjom Front
Thirteen U S soldiers fought off seven grenade throwing North Korean raiders in a pre dawn clash on the Korean front. Five Americans were scratched by grenade fragments in the two hour battle near a DMZ outpost about 13 miles from Panmunjom. The unit faced a night attack guided by whistle signals as UN forces warned Pyongyang to halt cross border assaults. Captain Jerry Scott of Ada Oklahoma led the defense aided by Warrant Officer Kenneth Grambialer of Alexandria South Dakota. The outpost withstood the assault though the names of the wounded were withheld awaiting kin notification.
