This is a picture taken at the seawall during the invasion. Overall, its a pretty recognizable picture to any historians, as it is one of the more famous ones. The man who is at the top of a seawall is noted to have died seconds later.

There are not many characters in the book at all, after all (yet again) it is more of a documentary read than it is a story. The main 'characters' are numerous officers and enlisted who are on the 'frontline', and MacArthur. The book doesnt really well represent any of the characters or any of their actual actions, so there is not much to go by.

some of the huge dilemmas (some already mentioned in earlier posts) are the slow advance, the pedantic planning, and the lack of forward HQs and effective frontline command as a result.
As already mentioned, the slow advance gave the enemy more than enough time to respond and restabilize, which is obviously, not good for the American forces.
The pedantic planning with phase lines and nobody being able to do anything without everyone else in position, caused many delays, because one group could hold up everyone else, and often did.
the lack of forward HQs caused communication problems and slow responses to attacks and such, the trouble behind that is obvious.

What surprised me about the whole operation was how slow the advance from the beach head was. The commanders here knew what could have happened (another Anzio), and failed to fix it. despite the fact that this is considered one of the most successful military operations ever, that is one of the flaws that people say negates it as 'noteworthy'.

I think that the author should have written the book in more of a story form rather than how it was written. A lot of the smaller things seem to be left out of the book, like details from the personal experiences of the many smaller characters in the book. There is a large amount of information overall though.

The books title is simply "Inchon"
sounds more like a tourist guide, or the next generation of HEADON, APPLY DIRECLTY TO FOREHEAD! products
The title is named for the location of the battle. There is not much else that can be said beyond that. It could have been more creative though, as in how the book on operation market garden is titled "a bridge too far", or "the Steel Wave" about operation neptune and overlord. All I can really say is, it isnt a very creative title, but im not even really sure what I would have named it. Maybe something to spin off of MacArthurs quotes, considering he planned the whole thing.
the most uncreative and annoying advertisement after ditech.
