Arrowhead Hill (Hill 281) was in the Iron Triangle, formed by Pyonggang at its peak and Gimhwa-eup and Cheorwon-eup at its base, a strategic transport route in the central region of the Korean peninsula.
At the same time, the ROK Army 9th Division was fighting CPVA on their right side at White Horse Hill.
As the French battalion defended the hill until the end, they were able to subdue the CPVA and make a contribution to the defense of White Horse Hill located on their right side.
In June and July 1953, there was a second battle that involved the ROK Army 2nd Infantry Division and CPVA.
From April 2019 to June 2020, Arrowhead Hill, which is in the Korean Demilitarized Zone was undergoing a remains recovery operation.
