I walked off the dock at Pusan August 8th instead of having to land under fire. For that I am grateful.

But they performed the "delaying tactic" which is what MacArthur knew, obviously, was
the only thing they were capable of at the time and how swiftly he moved

Gernilee, those men performed  delaying tactics for nearly 3 months until we could relieve them with the invasion at Inchon. And they performed these tactics splendidly. To me, they were the real heroes of that war
