About the battle
The Battle of Hill Eerie (Tagalog: Labanan sa Burol ng Eerie; Korean: 이리고지 전투) refers to several Korean War engagements between the United Nations Command (UN) forces and the Chinese People's Volunteer Army (PVA) in 1952 at Hill Eerie, a military outpost about 10 miles (16 km) west of Ch'orwon. It was taken several times by both sides; each sabotaging the others' position.
