  • At a meeting in Taegu, between U.S. Army and South Korean Army officials, a joint plan was made for dealing with the problem of South Korean refugees being infiltrated by North Korean soldiers. Six policies were implemented immediately, with the first one being "Leaflet drops will be made north of U.S. lines banning the people not to proceed south, that they risk being fired upon if they do so. If refugees do appear from north of U.S. lines they will receive warning shots, and if they then persist in advancing they will be shot." A secret letter, sent the next day from by John H. Muccio, the U.S. Ambassador to South Korea, to Assistant U.S. Secretary of State Dean Rusk described the policy. The policy would be carried out the next day at No Gun Ri. The existence of the letter would not become public until 2006, when historian Sahr Conway-Lanz discovered it in declassified documents in the National Archives.[96]
