Caption: "Men of the 1st Cavalry Division debark from ship to waiting LSU at P'ohang-Dong, Korea." The 1st Cavalry Division (First Team) is one of the most decorated combat divisions of the United States Army. In the summer of 1950, North Korea attacked South Korea, and the 1st Cavalry Division was rushed to Korea to help shore up the Pusan Perimeter. After the X Corps attack at Incheon, a breakout operation was launched at the Pusan Perimeter. The 1st Cavalry Division remained in the line until it was relieved by the 45th Infantry Division from the United States Army National Guard in January 1952. Following the relief, the division returned to Japan. The division returned to Korea in 1957, where it remained until 1965.
