Master 1848 - Tape 1 Aerial shots of war-torn, devastated Inchon, South Korea, shortly after yet another recapture by U.S. military forces: port and harbor, leveled industrial section, rubble, bombed-out buildings and houses, etc. Massive destruction. VO: " The port of Inchon, recently recaptured. This town, where the dramatic U.N. landing took place last September, is now in shambles, leveled by a naval bombardment... The systematic destruction pored on Inchon has left almost no building unscathed. Enemy strongpoints were eliminated before landing parties went ashore. For the fourth time in seven months Inchon changes hands."
