This absorbing study casts light on the tactics, weapons and combat effectiveness of the US Marines and North Korean soldiers who fought one another in August and September 1950.
Equipped with Soviet tanks and bolstered by a cadre of combat veterans returning from the Chinese Civil War, North Korea's army launched its surprise offensive against the Republic of Korea on 25 June 1950; within days Seoul had fallen and the majority of South Korea's divisions had been shattered. American ground troops rushed to Korea also seemed incapable of stopping the rapidly advancing North Koreans. By August, the remnants of the South Korean and US Army divisions had been pushed into a small corner around the port of Pusan, their backs to the sea. Time was also running out for the North Koreans; virtually all of their planning and preparations were based on a two-month campaign. Although the North Korean People's Army had enjoyed an impressive string of victories, its losses were no longer being replaced in the needed quantity or quality. It was truly a do-or-die moment for both sides.
In the wake of World War II, the United States Marine Corps had shrunk from 473,000 men in 1945 to only 70,000 in 1950. Despite its heavily slashed budget and manpower, the Marine Corps responded swiftly and decisively. Active-duty Marines from all over the globe gathered and for once the Marine Corps even received some of the latest American military equipment; it was the Marines' esprit de corps that made the real difference, however. Using first-hand accounts and specially commissioned artwork, this study assesses the KPA and US Marine Corps troops par

fast bathroom touch-ups
Great for fast bathroom touch-ups -- that four-times-a-day wiping away drips, toothpaste, and splashes. Sensitive formula won't dry out your skin. These are great to have on hand.
I buy tons of these for disaster prep -- when there's no water, it's nice to have a way to keep fresh. Also good for barter, if SHTF.

Great Makeup Wipes
These baby wipes are, hands down, the best baby wipes I have ever used. I use them for taking off my makeup before washing my face (much cheaper than buying makeup wipes). They are durable wipes and they really break down the makeup, yet they are super soft on the skin. They have a light fresh smell too, which is good because I use them on my face.

Perfect for my babies
The Pampers Sensitive Wipes, 448 count, seem to be the best for my children/ babies. After using Costco and other cheaper wipes that caused rashes and other issues, we discovered Pampers Sensitive Wipes. They not only worked great cleaning up the typical baby messes, they did not cause any rashes after use. P & G seem to always be on top of providing quality products to their customers.

Sensitive and Versatile
Wow! This is a big box. I wanted to try some new wipes for the barn and camping. The fact that they were labelled sensitive attracted me to them. It might have been a good idea to try a smaller package first. Fortunately I'm delight with these.
The wipes have a soft cloth feel that's not as thin and synthetic feeling as some others. They seem to pick up more of what I'm trying to wipe when some others just smear stuff around.
With such a big supply, it's been easy to spread these around to several places to have them on hand. The Prime Pantry price was low enough that I don't feel bad using disposables.

Great for sensitive skin but they could use more texture
I am glad these don't cause a rash on my son's sensitive skin but I don't really like how slippery/slimey these wipes are since it makes it harder to clean my kid's bottom. I have to use more wipes than I'd like because a single wipe doesn't really have the texture to get all the mess off. I do like these wipes to give my kids to wipe their faces and hands since my kids say they are soft, but their softness makes them less effective at wiping off messes on the bottom of my toddler. I think I will stick with less expensive brands of wipes that have a texture that is better at cleaning off my little guy.
