As the fesult of its (1st Marine Division Reinforced) attack, the Division drove the hostile forces in hasty retreat—completely severed vital hostile communica- tions and supply lines and greatly relieved enemy pressure on other friendly ground units, thereby permitting these units to break out frém their Pusan beachhead and contributed materially to the total destruction of hostile forces in South Korea .. .” LTJG.
