The Korean War Week 105: Destroy Suiho Dam! - June 23, 1952

Overview

Since the beginning of the war UN air power has studiously avoided hitting North Korea's hydro-electric complex, since the power the dams provide is mainly for civilian use, but that changes this week! Meanwhile on the ground, the focus has turned to capturing Communist POWs for information, but that task has suddenly proved impossible now that the UN POW camps are firmly back in UN control, and it seems the Communists now prefer even death to capture.
