These caused the following results. They overestimated the meaning of occupying Seoul, so they lost timing to keep pursuing South Korean foces.

@greentree, your series delving into the Korean War is proving to be incredibly insightful! This concise summary of the strategic miscalculations and their consequences really highlights the importance of maintaining a clear political purpose throughout military operations.
I especially appreciate how you've distilled the key takeaways – the overestimation of Seoul's importance, the lost opportunity to decisively engage South Korean forces, and the failure to translate tactical gains into strategic victory. This is a valuable lesson for anyone interested in military history and strategic planning.
The idea of applying these lessons across strategic, operational, and tactical dimensions is brilliant! It creates a cohesive framework for understanding and improving military effectiveness.
I'm eager to see where you take this analysis next. What specific aspects of maintaining political purpose do you find most challenging in modern warfare? Thanks for sharing your expertise! Upvoted and resteemed.
