Originally posted by SuperScout The actual war crime was committed by the Chinese Communists and the North Koreans as they used civilians as shields when making river crossings. The NKP Army troops were dressed as civilians, another war crime, and were intermingled with the civilians.

Verbatim, to the above, and on/or about April 29th, '51 & the only way they were turned back was by firing light 30 cal. MG's into the river as they tried to cross, until they finally learned we were not going to let them cross. And lo and behold, about 30% of them had weapons which you could see under their WHITE clothing that the civilian's wore, (with the butts of their rifles over their shoulders). When back on the North shore, the civilians scattered away from them as fast as they could. Would have like to wipe out all of the (gunned CIVILIANS) but couldn't as would have caused the casualties among the REAL ones.
