Soldiers of the 187th Airborne Regimental Combat Team pause at a field mess point somewhere in Korea's rugged interior. Known as the 'Rakkasans,' the 187th executed two of the only combat parachute jumps of the Korean War, at Sukchon-Sunchon in 1950 and Munsan-ni in 1951, and spent long stretches fighting and living in the harsh mountain terrain seen here. Photographs like this one document the everyday realities of sustaining frontline troops far from the drama of combat jumps. Project: 218535
