The North Korean Tree That Almost Started WW3

Fun Fact : Park Chung-hee, the then South Korean president, said, "Bring my helmet and boots right now. Crazy dogs must be clubbed." Then, he ordered an attack on a North Korean guard post. The U.S. military was unaware of what would happen because this order was not notified to them So, The U.S. military was very embarrassed to see the South Korean paratroopers who were escorting them, suddenly running to a North Korean guard post with clubs and guns When an Us army driver, fearful of WW3, tried to stop them, the paratroopers threatened him with a pistol and made him get out of the way. The North Korean soldiers tried to restrain them several times while the South Korean paratroopers smashed their guard posts, But every time the North Korean soldiers approached them, the South Korean paratroopers threatened them with a swearing, so north koreans retreated in fear. Park Chung-hee ordered that the North Korean soldiers be killed immediately if they approached within 30 km, but none were killed because the North Korean soldiers was scared This operation was obviously a reckless Operation, so all South Korean paratroopers wrote a will before attacking

The North Korean officer who led the axe murder incident was eliminated by the South Korean military two years later. At that time, the South Korean leader mobilized 60 South Korean airborne troops to destroy two North Korean outposts, and the United States was furious that this increased the risk of war. However, the South Korean military retaliated and killed the North Korean officer two years later. After that, North Korea's Kim Il-sung issued his first apology to the South Korean government.

1976 Korean axe murder incident On August 18, 1976, North Korean soldiers killed two United States Army officers, Captain Arthur Bonifas and First Lieutenant Mark Barrett, in the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ). The officers were part of a work party cutting down a poplar tree in the Joint Security Area (JSA). The incident is also known as the hatchet incident, the poplar tree incident, and the tree trimming incident. Arthur Bonifas and Mark Barrett, U.S. Army soldiers, were killed in the Korean Demilitarized Zone by North Korean forces by their own axes they were using to trim trees in what was called the Korean axe murder incident.

I'd also like to point out that all of the weapons carried by the South Koreans in Operation Paul Bunyan were smuggled into the DMZ. Several of them hid claymore mines under their shirts. Others hid M16 rifles behind garden tools and wooden clubs inside their truck. The commanders of the mission had no idea that the ROK soldiers had brought the guns with them.

Also, part of the tour was going up to Propaganda Village and seeing the rather gy-normous North Korean flag flying above the village.
