TF Smith, comprised of a makeshift battalion of the Japan-based U.S. Army 24th Infantry Division, was sent to South Korea to delay the advance of North Korean forces. Inexperienced, understrength and ill-equipped, TF Smith sustained 60 killed, 21 wounded, and 82 captured, during its battle against North Korean forces.
