The 7th Infantry Division was a military formation of the Republic of Korea Army during the 20th Century.
After the fall of Taejon, only had a few hundred survivors to participate in the Battle of Pusan Perimeter.[1]
After the Chinese intervention and attacks in November 1950, the U.S. 2d Infantry Division, the Turkish Brigade, and the ROK 6th, 7th, and 8th Infantry Divisions suffered substantial loss that they needed extensive rest and refitting to recover combat effectiveness.[2]
