The operation was a massive redeployment of UN forces designed to put more South Korean Army units on the Main Line of Resistance. The 1st Marine Division was reassigned to the far western end of the United Nations line defending a 35-mile line that encompassed the Pyongyang to Seoul corridor. For much of the next year, in what would be termed the "Outpost War", action along this line consisted of small, localized actions because much of the fighting revolved around the hold- R.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

  • AN ACT Designating the Portion of State Route 2044, Also Known As
    AN ACT Designating the portion of State Route 2044, also known as Commonwealth Avenue, between Homestead-Duquesne Road and Hoffman Boulevard in West Mifflin Borough, Allegheny County, as the Colonel Mitchell Paige Memorial Highway. The General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania hereby enacts as follows: Section 1. Colonel Mitchell Paige Memorial Highway. Findings.--The General Assembly finds and declares as follows: Colonel Mitchell Paige was born on August 31, 1918 in Charleroi, Pennsylvania, and his family later moved to the Camden Hills section of West Mifflin. On September 1, 1936, he enlisted in the United States Marine Corps at the age of 18 after graduating from McKeesport High School, and would go on to serve during World War II. On October 26, 1942, on the small island of Guadalcanal in the Solomon Islands, Colonel Paige and his 32-member unit held off more than 1,000 attacking enemy soldiers in the Battle of Guadalcanal. During the battle, all 32 Marines under Colonel Paige’s command were killed or wounded so badly that they could not fire their weapons. Colonel Paige, who was stabbed through the hand with a bayonet and wounded by shrapnel, fought on alone. When his machine gun was destroyed, he bounded to another and then another, fighting off the enemies until U.S. reinforcements arrived. Colonel Paige then led a bayonet charge that maintained American control of Henderson Field, an important landing strip in the Solomon Islands. For his actions, Colonel Paige received the Medal of Honor at the age of 24. He continued to fight in World War II for the next two years, and retired from the United States Marine Corps in 1964.
