Super Bazooka KW (id:#63125)

(ASL 15 - Forgotten War ID: 205)   [next]   [previous]

Taegu, South Korea 1950-07-20 (5 others)

Overview:

One serious problem that plagued both American and South Korean units in the early stages of the war was the lack of an effective anti-tank weapon that could penetrate the armor of KPA T-34/85s. The U.S. Army sped delivery of the new "super bazookas" to Korea. At the Nonsan-Kongju road junction, these new weapons were put to the test.

Defender: American (2nd Platoon, G Company, 19th Infantry Regiment, Engineer Section, C Company, 3rd Combat Engineer Battalion, and Bazooka Section, 24th Reconnaissance Company, 24th Infantry Division)
