Korean War maps

[Ed Evanhoe <evanhoe@arbuckleonline.com>]

Out of curiosity I dug out my 1950 copy of Rand-McNally's Road Map of 
Korea, scale 1:1,000,000 (as is the L451 series road map Sandy mentioned) 
to see if they called the reservoir "Changjin" or "Chosin."  On this road 
map the Changjin River was shown and the outline of the reservoir but 
didn't have the reservoir named.  The 1952 AMS Series L-751, 1:250,000 
scale, shows the reservoir as the "Changjin Reservoir."

As a sidebar:  Apparently the 1:1,000,000 road map Sandy got from the 
National Archives is the only map from the AMS Series L-451 set they have 
on file but they do have complete sets of AMS Series L-551 and L-751.  I 
know the University of Arizona has Korean War maps, down to 1:50,000 scale, 
in their holding but don't know what AMS series.
