[quote="Fluffy_Bunny":0854c]Maybe kus in the first Korean War China & NK whipped not only US azz but the UK/Australia/Canada & some other members of the United Nations.[/quote:0854c]
For the sake of pride, nobody whipped anybody's ass in that war. It was a flip-flop match that ended in a stalemate.

Middle 1950 - NK invades

Middle/Late 1950 - NK pushes UN/SK back to what's called the "Pusan perimeter" where about 100 miles of land was still under UN control.

Late 1950 - Incheon landings, UN/SK pushes back NK all the way back up north, and in some parts, to the Chinese border.

Early 1951 - China enters on the NK side. Pushes the UN/SK forces down 2/3 of the way into SK.

1951-53 - UN/SK pushes Chinese and NK back to the 38th parallel - war becomes a standsill until the ceasefire.
