honoring those that had selflessly

The Incheon Landing Operation was

a well known operation

that played a critical role

during the Korean War.

 

This operation called

Operation Chromite

took place on September 15, 1950. 

 

 It was a surprise landing operation

in Incheon led by General McArthur.

 

It was due to this operation

that the South and UN Forces

were able to cut the North’s supply lines

and recapture Seoul.

 

At the memorial there are photos

from the operation,

military armaments used by both

the South and North’s militaries.

 

Outside of the hall,

there is a memorial tower,

with the 16 national flags

of the countries that fought

beside Korea.

 

This is an important part

of Korea’s history one

that should not be forgotten.

 

Also, located next to this memorial is

the Incheon City Museum.
