Two points for improvements....[edit]

I'm apologize not being able to directly lend a hand on this Wikipedia first, and I also apologize in advance for being somewhat nitpicky, but before this article reach the GAN review, I would like to point out two coverage gaps for further improvement.

1) The Logistics situation at the Battle of Pusan Perimeter during the Korean War is widely recognized to be among the most decisive factors in determining the outcome of the battle. For a bold statement that affects this article's notability, it is somewhat strange that there are no footnotes nor discussions between historians on this statement in this article. Is there anything that can be added to show that this statement is a widely supported scholar opinions?

2) Unlike the UN section, the North Korean logistics sections does not have an introduction on North Korean logistics organizations. If possible, please write a brief summery on which department in NKA is responsible for Logistics and the North Korean logistics doctrine before the Pusan Perimeter battle.

No, those are good points. I'll address them in the next day or so. —Ed!^(talk) 04:13, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've added everything I can find in my sources. —Ed!^(talk) 05:19, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Just added one little thing...which department in NKPA is responsible for which part of the supply chain. Jim101 (talk) 21:57, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for that. I am only able to access that book online and so I can't see most of its pages. —Ed!^(talk) 02:04, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
