X Corps (U.S. Army) Pint Glass 16oz

The X Corps was a United States Marine Corps unit established during the Korean War as part of the U.S. I Corps. Its formation was a response to the need for a rapid reaction force capable of conducting amphibious and ground operations in the Korean Theater. The X Corps, consisting primarily of the 1st Provisional Marine Brigade, was under the operational control of the Eighth Army but retained its own command and logistical structure. The unit saw significant action during the Battle of Inchon and the Battle of Chosin Reservoir before being disbanded in 1954 at the end of the Korean War. The X Corps represents an example of U.S. military adaptation and innovation in responding to evolving combat situations, demonstrating the versatility and flexibility of the Marine Corps.
