These reenactment photos show how brutal the pivotal battle of the Korean War was
The Korean War, also known as the Forgotten War, began on June 25, 1950, when the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), with 75,000 soldiers, invaded the Republic of Korea (ROK) by crossing the 38th Parallel line that separated the two countries.
As ROK forces struggled to repel the Chinese and Russian-backed invaders, a US-led United Nations coalition decided to intervene and assist the nascent South. After 3 years and an estimated 5 million casualties later, the two nations eventually signed an armistice agreement that still separates them to this day.
In honor of the 66th anniversary of the Korean War, South Korean and US soldiers held a re-enactment of a crucial fight that helped turn the tide for South Korea.
Here's a few pictures of re-enactment of the Nakdong River Battle:
