KOREA ToO, TIGER SPIRIT CAMPAIGN, DAY 4 @ 0500HRS
OPERATION "WAR IN THE WEST"
SITREP DAY4 @ 0500HRS
the north korean army is in full retreat. reduced airpower and huge terrain gains by the combined forces have forced them to give up current lines of defense in order to reassemble troops in the PYONGYANG area to make a final stand. this opens the door for the combined forces to move troops into the western part of the peninsula and capture vital military installations, crucial for the final push to take the capital PYONGYANG and therefore ending the conflict.
AIR TASKING ORDER
while in full retreat, the north korean army destroyed almost every bridge in the western sector, significantly slowing the combined forces down. since engeneer batallions are spread all over south korea, repairing these bridges is not a suitable solution. therefore, once again, AIR COMMAND calls upon helicopters to insert troops to key locations by air.
