8th Army G-2 warns units that the North Koreans are preparing for a general 
attack in the 2nd and 25th Infantry Division areas and the attack could be 
launched at any time.

ROK troops regain the ground lost during the night but again lose it after 
dark to an enemy counterattack.

The 23rd Infantry, 2nd Infantry Division, is relieved from the Taegu Front 
and sent south to rejoin the 2nd Division at Miryang.  Meanwhile, the 1st 
Cavalry Division area is ordered to shift to the east so the Taegu-Sangju 
road is part of their area and the 2nd Division area is expanded 
north.  The 7th & 8th Cavalry Regiments are ordered to the mountains north 
and west of Taegu while the 23rd Infantry, 2nd Division or ordered to fill 
former 7th Cavalry Regiment positions on the Naktong.
