  • I Corps was a Corps of the US Army deployed in Korea during the Korean War. Together with IX Corps and later X Corps, I Corps was subordinate to the Eighth United States Army (EUSA or 8th Army), the field army which was the commanding formation for ground forces operations during the Korean War. I Corps is pronounced "Eye Kor" although the "I" actually means 1st or Number 1. Like other Corps in the US Army, it would typically be commanded by a Lieutenant-General (three stars). During the Korean War, I Corps had under its command, at various times, several divisions of army troops, including the US 1st Cavalry Division, the US 2nd, 3rd, 7th, 24th and 25th Divisions, the 1st Marine Division, the British 27th Infantry Brigade, the British 1st Commonwealth Division and divisions of the ROK Army. Corp HQs like I Corps served as the superior headquarters for the MASH units in Korea. Although Army doctrine stated that each division would be supported by its own MASH, in practice there were never enough MASH units to go around. I Corps had two MASH units, 8063rd and the Norwegian Mobile Surgical Hospital (NORMASH), which supported all the divisions under its command.
