13 Mar 51, PW deserted and voluntarily surrendered to 8th US Cav Regt in vicinity of PUNJIRI (CS8363).

b. Location and Activities of Unit:
Heard from Bn CO that 125th Div mission was to “entice” UN forces to chase it in its rapid retreat in YONGMUNSAN (CS7157) area so 124th Div and 126th Div on its east and west flank would be able to trap any rapidly advancing UN troops.

PW had observed none in KOREA.

Bn and higher echelon units used telephones; lower echelon units employed runners.

g. Morale:
Morale of troops was low because of battle fatigue coupled with no hope of being relieved.

PW surrendered voluntarily because he abhored communism. He saw many leaflets which urged all former CNA soldiers to surrender immediately for it was meaningless to fight Americans who had helped them through last war.
