One of my Great Uncles fought in WWII and in Korea. Hought in the Pacific Theater when he learned his brother was a POW so he enlisted. He actually fought in the Chosin Reservoir against the Chinese after MacArthur denied that there were Chinese opposition. The Last Stand of Fox Company is a fantastic book if you were ever looking for a good book on the Korean War. My Great Uncle fought with those guys in the B Company Marines out of Minnesota.
> About 18 of 22 of North Korea's major cities were "at least half obliterated
Backed by real statistics and quotes for which you give no source.
Also, your more legitimate question shows an amount of hyperbole that I would expect you to be unhappy with if someone else said it. Don't you think that claiming that "bombarding the entire peninsula to the ground" is an extreme exaggeration?
If you doubt the veracity of the story, I recommend the following book:

The authors are Bob Drury who has a Pulitzer and Tom Clavin who wrote for the New York Times for 15 years and various magazines including Smithsonian.
I'm gonna have to check that one out. The Last Stand of Fox Company is another great book for those interested.
It focuses on the 234 men of Fox Company and how they held Fox Hill against thousands of Chinese.
