Enter the Korean War Archives.
Return to the winter of 1950 as Chinese communist troops swarm across the Yalu River to reinforce their North Korean allies, drastically escalating the ongoing conflict. This rare primary footage captures American GIs already grappling with plunging temperatures now steeling themselves against a fierce new enemy. Witness relentless fighting amid endless snow, helicopter medical evacuations, and the towering demands placed on ill-equipped Cold War warriors.
