The enemy continued aggressive pressure during the period, ex-
ploiting penetrations in the eastern and east-central sectors. Hostile
groups of up to regimental strength attacked at some twelve points from
Chunchon east to the eoast. In other sectors, enemy units were encoun-
tered closer to friendly lines, and one hostile attack ten miles northeast
of Seoul was repulsed after initial penetration. (FECOM) (SECRET)

GROUND
a. General: ROK units in the eastern sectors withdrew to new
defensive positions and fought to contain penetrations along the X US
Corps-III ROK Corps boundary, south of Pupyong. One company of the
2nd US Infantry Division was cut off east of Chunchon, and friendly units
were attacking to close the penetration. Farthest UN withdrawal placed
the 7th ROK Division, in the X US Corps sector, eighteen miles south of
the 38th parallel and 25 miles east of Hongchon. Friendly patrolling
continued against increasing resistance in the vicinities of Munsan, Uijong-
bu, and Kapyong, in the western sectors. (FECCM) (SECRET)
