Evasion Escape and Rescue - Korea

1 Jan 1952

TOP SECRET In addition, it nullifies to a certain extent the morale effect of Evasion and Escape briefing in that the persons so briefed are presented with a most difficult situation, should they become evaders. 8. Geographically and tactically, Korea lends itself to the type of recovery operation carried out extensively in the 1939/45 war. The situation is analogous to that which existed in Italy in that the main ground fighting is taking place within forty miles of the coast. The United Nations possess complete air superiority to a depth of approximately sixty miles behind the battle front and in addition, the coastal areas are dominated by United Nations' Naval craft.
