Willoughby Refutes Surprise Chinese Entry in Korean War
Maj. Gen. Charles Willoughby, MacArthur’s top intelligence officer, argues China’s entry was not a sudden surprise. He notes Chinese troops were along the Yalu and buildup was known, but details were unclear. The key unknown was whether Beijing would commit to large scale action. He backs the Nov. 24 UN attack, saying it was not a defeat.
