dbo:abstract | The Jamestown Line was a series of defensive positions occupied by United Nations forces in the Korean War. Following the end of the 1951 Chinese Spring Offensive and the UN May-June 1951 counteroffensive, the war largely became one of attrition and trench warfare, fought along static defensive lines reminiscent of the First World War. As a consequence, major UN ground operations from late spring—under the direction of Lieutenant General Matthew Ridgway—were primarily conducted to recapture or establish durable defensive lines, including the Wyoming, Missouri, Kansas and Jamestown Lines. The Jamestown Line stretched from the Imjin River near Munsan-ni then arched northeast 35 miles (56 km) in the strategically important sector of front from the Kimpo peninsula on the Yellow Sea coast to a point east of Kumhwa. The line was subsequently established during the UN counteroffensive between May and November 1951, just north of the 38th Parallel (38°N) during Operation Commando (1951). Held by the US I Corps, this sector was just 30 miles (48 km) from the South Korean capital, Seoul. Five UN divisions of I Corps were used in its capture, including the US 1st Cavalry Division, the US 3rd and 25th Infantry Divisions, the South Korean 1st Division and the 1st Commonwealth Division. The Jamestown Line was fought over almost continuously until the armistice on 27 July 1953; due to its strategic position, it was the scene of much heavy fighting, including the Battle of the Samichon River just hours before the armistice agreement, which ended the war. (en) La ligne Jamestown était une série de positions défensives occupées par les forces des Nations unies pendant la guerre de Corée. À la suite de la fin de l'offensive chinoise du printemps 1951, la guerre est devenue une guerre d'usure et de tranchées, combattue le long de lignes de défenses fixes rappelant celles de la Première Guerre mondiale. En conséquence, les principales opérations terrestres de l'ONU – dirigées par le lieutenant général Matthew Ridgway – ont été menées dans le but de reprendre ou d'établir des lignes de défenses durbales, avec notamment les lignes Wyoming, Missouri, Kansas et Jamestown. La ligne Jamestown s'étend de la rivière Imjin à côté de Munsan-ni, puis se courbe de 56 km vers le nord-est dans le secteur d'importance stratégique faisant face à la péninsule de Kimpo sur la côte de la mer Jaune à l'est de Kumhwa. Par la suite, la ligne a été établie, pendant la contre-offensive des Nations unies de mai à novembre 1951, juste au nord du 38e parallèle au cours de l'opération Commando. Tenu par le premier corps d'armée américain, ce secteur était à seulement 48 km de la capitale de la Corée du Sud, Séoul. Cinq divisions de l'ONU du premier corps d'armée ont été mobilisées pour sa capture avec notamment la 1re division de cavalerie, la 3e division d'infanterie, 25e division d'infanterie, la 1re division d'infanterie sud-coréenne et la 1re Division du Commonwealth. La ligne Jamestown a été l'objet de combat continuels jusqu'à l'armistice du 27 juillet 1953. À cause de sa position stratégique elle a été la scène de lourds combats, notamment la bataille de la rivière Samichon qui a eu lieu quelques heures avant la signature de l'accord d'Armistice qui a mis fin à la guerre.
