“Inchon Landing: MacArthur’s Korean War Masterstroke, September 1950” recounts the pivotal counteroffensive led by General Douglas MacArthur, turning the tide of the Korean War. Despite skepticism from Washington and logistical challenges, MacArthur’s daring plan for an amphibious assault on Inch’ŏn succeeded. The surprise landing on 15 September allowed US forces to recapture Seoul and break the North Korean siege of the Pusan Perimeter. This bold maneuver not only pushed North Korean forces back across the 38th Parallel but also marked a significant shift in the war’s momentum, reinstating the South Korean government in their capital.
