DIISSLMINATION NUMBERED (b)(3)
1. Along the seawall of the Inchon Tidal Basin area (126..3645, 37-27-30 to
126-37-55, 37-27-10) there are concealed machine gun positions. There
are approximately 40 guns, placed in positions which would cover any
landing attempts in this area; these guns can also cover the channel�
2. The guns are entrenched immediately behind the seawall and fire through
openings made by removing stones in the wall. The gun positions are
covered with planks and dirt. Access from the rear is through an open
trench.
Field Comment� It is probable but not confirmed that there are also
guns concealed along the northwest side of the basin area.
This document is hereby regraded to
