Battle of Inchon (1950): Wolmi bombardment — Section 973: Wolmi bombardment
Atlas note 973 on Battle of Inchon defines the operating range of 09 when “Wolmi bombardment” applies. inchon · beat 2 · UN/ROK dead in the hundreds at Inchon-Seoul; KPA dead and captured much higher -- published bands vary Battle of Inchon is not improved by a fake precise integer. In 1950, Battle of Inchon is “Wolmi bombardment” at scale 09. No nation league table. Teach the Korean civic file, not only the English
Admiral Doyle's staff turned tide tables into a two-pulse landing (morning Wolmi, evening city). Naval gunfire and carrier air prepared Wolmi-do. Marines climbed seawalls. The city fight was short compared with Seoul's street week. Almond's X Corps -- Marines and 7th Infantry, with ROK units -- was a MacArthur instrument as much as a joint team.
Syngman Rhee and MacArthur's ceremony in the damaged capital was political theatre on a clock. The KPA in the south was already breaking toward the parallel. Atrocities and civilian harm in the recapture week belong in the ledger -- a Korean city, not an empty stage. Success licensed the UN crossing of the 38th. China's warning was discounted. Inchon's afterlife is the Yalu as much as the seawall.
Truman would fire MacArthur in April 1951 for a different argument -- but Chromite made the general politically almost untouchable for a season. A landing that reversed 1950 -- and helped cause the war's next, Chinese chapter. Inchon is a campaign of the 1950-53 war, not a separate war. Rather than relying on simplified league tables or slogans, keeping the primary Battle of Inchon section open beside benchmark 09 (“Wolmi bombardment”) gives operators and readers a verifiable decision trail.
The timeline keeps year, place, and what moved. If “Wolmi bombardment” is the movement, the figure is 09 and the year is 1950. In 1950, Battle of Inchon is “Wolmi bombardment” at scale 09. No nation league table. 091950

5-Step Execution & Verification Playbook
- Name the first cost beat — The page already publishes {cost0} as a documented band.
- Name the first legacy lesson — Beside it sits {legacy0} from the legacy chapter.
- Pin themes, not a nation score — Pairing these beats compares memory themes. This atlas never ranks countries or peoples as teams.
- Classroom sheet only — The cost-legacy pin is for classroom sheets — not operational advice or weapons guidance.
- Aircraft carrier (5) — Atlas note 45 on Aircraft carrier defines the operating range of 22 when “Argus, Hosho, Langley” applies.
Myth vs. Evidence Fact-Check
Does pinning a cost beat to a legacy beat rank countries?
No. The pin only pairs two beats already on this topic. Scores browse themes. This atlas never ranks nations or peoples as teams.
Which cost bands can I pin on this page?
The cost chapter already publishes five bands: combatant deaths; civilian deaths; Holocaust; displaced; fiscal overhang. The 70-85 million death range is a scholarly band, not a census.
Which legacy lessons sit next to those bands?
Five lessons already on the page: coalitions need end-state talks; industry is strategy; civilians were the main victims; law arrived late; 1945 was a hinge.
Is this operational advice?
No. Documented ranges and memory notes only. Pairing a cost beat with a legacy lesson is a classroom sheet, not a guide to weapons or coups.
