America vs The ’North Korean’ Tree #shorts | Countryballs
This is PART 1 -- In August of 1976, a brief but epic territorial battle was fought. On one side: the US, South Korea, and her allies; on the other: North Korea. Over... a Korean tree. This, is the story of that fateful battle: Operation Paul Bunyan
Video in CountryBalls / PolandBall format.
Historical overview:
Occurred in August 1976, in the “Joint Security Area” of demilitarized zone between North and South Korea. Basically there was a poplar tree blocking line of sight between a United Nations Command checkpoint and an observation post near “The Bridge of No Return.” The North Koreans said it was planted by their leader at the time, Kim Il-sung.
Part 1 of the video: August 18: small team of Korean military, and a UN Command team and of about 13 personnel, were sent to prune the tree. 15 North Korean military came out, watched for a bit, sent for and got reinforcements, demanded the pruning stop, and then attacked. The South Korea/UNC were injured, and two American commanders were axed to death.
Part 2 of the video: Operation Paul Bunyan (named after a mythical American lumberjack) was the South Korean/American response, a wild show of force: 23 American and South Korean vehicles with 16 military engineers with chain saws, accompanied by two 30-man security platoons from the Joint Security Forces (pistols and axes), another vehicle with a massive machine gun on it, (aimed at the bridge but we can fudge it), another group building rafts on the nearby river in case evac was needed, and then ALSO a 64-man Korean special forces brigade with clubs who were trained in taekwondo... who also then pulled out a bunch of machine guns. And some had claymores strapped to their chests. Cobra helicopters circling overhead, B-52 bomber fortresses, F-4’s, other fighter jets, and even more (trucks etc.) waiting at the edge of the demilitarized zone ‘just in case.’
