The Battle of Gapyeong

During the nights of April 23-25 1951, the 2nd Battalion
Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry,
withstood heavy attacks in the Gapyeong River
Valley by forces of the Chinese People's
Volunteer Army, which were attempting
to push forward and capture Seoul.

Isolated from other units of the 27th British
Commonwealth Brigade and at one point,
completely surrounded by the enemy,
the Patricia's gave up not one foot of ground,
they halted the huge enemy offensive and
saved the Capital of the Republic of Korea.

For the gallant action, the Princess Patricia's
2nd Battalion, which was in the chain of command
of American Army Corps, was awarded
the United States Presidential Unit Citation.
