Don’t knock infantry tanks. The Churchill infantry tank was better protected than the Tiger I and the Panther, and provided good service through the Korean War.
An aside, the sitcom MASH had me believing the Korean war went on for a decade. It wasn't until a couple years ago I looked it up and found out how short it was in reality for the time America was involved. The other thing is, I they had a motion graphic of the entire war,, the push back and forth, the graphic was only about a minute and half, from start date to the agreed DMZ. The allies almost got to China, then almost got pushed south to the sea, then at the end the country was split.
