Looks like a beach-head after an amphibious landing - WWII vehicles - Normandy, June 1944?

No -----

The landing at Inchon, Sept 10 -19 during the Korean War.

Congrats to Mike who has gotten the right answer.

Sparty said...

Darn, that was my next guess. But, Mike, you didn't indicate the year.:) Anybody here old enough to remember this landing? A daring move by MacArthur that trapped a major part of the North Korean army and emboldened MacArthur to push north toward the Chinese border - not a good idea.

Technically it was the Korean conflict. No war was ever declared. The last declared war was WWII.

Irish Mike said...

Sorry, I know the year is 1950, but I can't remember it because it happened three months before I was born.

Mike ; you have a terrific memory for not having been born yet ----
