The 13th Psychological Warfare Battalion (13th Psy War Bn) was activated during the Korean War to provide psychological operations (PSYOP) in support of United Nations forces. Specializing in leaflet dissemination, radio broadcasts, and loudspeaker operations, the unit aimed to undermine enemy morale and encourage defections. Throughout its service, the battalion played a crucial role in information warfare, often operating near the front lines to maximize its psychological impact. After the conflict, the 13th Psy War Bn continued to develop and refine PSYOP tactics, contributing to U.S. Army psychological operations doctrine in subsequent decades.
