TAEJON, Korea, Sunday, July 2—The first Amer- : fcan GI's ordered into battle since World War II swung
off a troop train here today and rolled to the north into no-man’s land as South Koreans cheered. Battle-clad young infantrymen, looking tough but cheerful, filed off the train and climbed into trucks. They roared north under clear skies but over roads and bridges flooded by yesterday's heavy rains. A crowd of cheering South Koreans greeted the vanguard of the much-needed American troops, flown to
Korea from Japan for battle against the horthern Com_munist invaders.

A local brass band even turned out before dawn await their arrival. The sight of the soldiers and their modern war equipment was a tremendous morale booster for the South Korean people and the army, who had witnessed two American withdrawals before the invaders in the weekold war, They came at a time when & no-man’s land of some 80 miles exists between Taejon and the North Korean lines at the Han River south of Seoul. The Americans will take up advanced positions as rapidly as they can be trucked north and formed for bat-. tle. Their modern weapons were expected to stiffen the resistance of the South Korean army which is now virtually denuded of heavy weapons.

“This is what we had been waiting for,” exclaimed | Gen. Chung II Kwon, South Korean army chief of staff, as he watched the troops, loaded with battle packs and full war equipment, leave for the front. : A high ranking American officer of advance head_quarters requested correspondents not to use the names of arriving trodps. “There's a war on,” he said. The GI's who arrived today were flown from Japan before further airlift operations Saturday were Saimpered hy heavy clouds and rains.
