Outpost Harry

Outpost Harry was a remote Korean War station located on a tiny hilltop in what was commonly referred to as the "Iron Triangle" on the Korean Peninsula.

Since the outpost was defended each night by only a single company of American or Greek soldiers, the Chinese had anticipated an easy capture.
