The landing followed two days of heavy bombardment of jtfce port by US and British warships and American planes.

Backed by a mighty armada of ships of eight nations, land forces stormed ashore on both coasts behind communist lines in invasions which may break the back of the three-months-old north Korean invasion. U.

S. marines and infantry stormed ashore in force at Inchon, west coast port of the fallen south Korea capital, Seoul, opening a second front roughly 160 miles behind the tight battle cockpit in the southeast. Spearheaded by tanks, the Americans knifed swiftly two miles into Inchon, 22 miles west of Seoul. The Navy in Washington said the marines suffered only "negligible losses.

The Mo had made an dash to the sea of Japan from Norfolk, Va.

On the west coast, the Americans went ashore under billowing clouds of brown smoke from the great bombardment, while carrier-based planes whipped rockets and machinegun fire into concealed Red shore installations.
