In western Korea, along ?ain lines of resistance,?men of the 1st Marine Division patrolled from lonely outposts. Thus began ?he outpost war,?a forgotten period of the ?orgotten war?but one during which 7800 Marines lost became casualties. Lee Ballenger? THE OUTPOST WAR tells the story of the division? move to the Jamestown Line in western Korea where the assaulttrainedandequipped troops must dig in and learn to fight an unusual defensive war. It describes their steep, deadly learning curve and reports on major battles of the period, including Bunker Hill and The Hook, while including the trials and tribulations of individuals who were there.
