1st Division (North Korea)

The 1st Infantry Division is a military formation of the Korean People's Army.

During the initial offensives in 1950, the 1st Division was part of the North Korean advance from Seoul to Taejon.

The division fought in the Battle of Pusan Perimeter.

The intelligence section of U.S Far East Command headquarters listed the divisions order of battle as of 31 July 1952 as follows:

This same report listed the 1st Division as being in III Corps Reserve at the same time period.

Though the present status of North Korean military units is often difficult to confirm, the last public information from the former Far East Command indicates the 1st Division is currently garrisoned in Kosong County, Kangwon Province.
