1. Situation in Brief:
GROUND
The enemy continues his probing attacks in the sout's and west and
is still endeavoring to push forward in the northeast. An enemy attack
succeeded in seizing high ground southwest of Haman, and a friendly
counterattack failed to regain the position. The position of the 2d U. S.
Infantry Division is substantially unchanged. In the 1st U. S. Cavalry
Division sector, an enemy attack the night of 9-10 September caused
slight withdrawals of elements of the 7t1: U. S. Cavalry RCT. The enemy
was forced by ROK attacks to yield ground in the Yongchon area. Farther
east, however, the enemy regained positions south of Angang, previously
lost to counterattacking ROK forces. The enemy also made slight gains
elsewhere in the eastern sector against U. S. and ROK forces. (FECOM)

in west central Korea with good results. (FECOM) (SECRET)
AIR
