During this time 13,444 UNC prisoners returned to UNC countries, and 89,493 KPA and CPV prisoners returned to their countries. Once the choice was made there was no turning back-hence the name Bridge of No Return. Each prisoner was then asked if he wished to cross the river and return to his countrymen or remain with his captors. During Operation Big Switch, prisoners were brought to Panmunjom, on the banks of the Sachong River. Based on the success of the repatriations undertaken earlier, a general exchange of prisoners began in late April. Operation Big Switch, April–September 1953.605 sick, wounded, and/or injured UNC prisoners were exchanged for 6,030 sick or injured North Korean prisoners. This operation was a test case for prisoner repatriation, one of the four main issues of contention during two years of negotiation. According to a report on CNN, the US government has offered to fix the bridge or even replace it, but North Korea has denied permission. As of 2003, the bridge is considered in need of repair. Billboard.Because of this proximity to North Korean territory, being surrounded on all access routes by North Korean checkpoints, and repeated attempts to kidnap the UNC personnel working there, CP#3 was often referred to as 'The Loneliest Outpost in the World'. ^ 'Capone-N-Noreaga Chart History (Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums)'.^ 'Capone-N-Noreaga Chart History ( Billboard 200)'.'Tuesday Rap Release Dates: Gucci Mane, Bun B, Nappy Roots | Get The Latest Hip Hop News, Rap News & Hip Hop Album Sales'.

#CAPONE AND NOREAGA CNN WAR REPORT ALBUM ZIP#
Nashiem Myrick & Carlos '6 July' Broady for The HitmenĬastro, Musaliny (From Musaliny-N-Maze), Mendosa & Troy Outlaw The album was originally scheduled to be released on June 15, 2010, almost exactly 13 years to the original, but it was pushed back a month later to July 13, 2010. The success of the album managed the group to make a sequel titled The War Report 2: Report the War. Upon the release of The War Report, however, Capone and Noreaga brought new life into the gangsta rap subgenre, becoming an instant underground phenomenon that foreshadowed the rise of similarly styled emcees who went on to cross into the mainstream for the remainder of the mid 1990s (i.e., Royal Flush and Mic Geronimo), into the late 1990s (i.e., DMX, and Ja Rule) and into the following decade (i.e., 50 Cent and Jadakiss). As it crossed over into the mainstream, the concept was becoming increasingly generic (as seen with the hip hop supergroup the Firm, which rhymed almost exclusively about the mafioso life). Beginning in the end of 1996 and throughout 1997 (during the commercial height of Puff Daddy's pop-oriented Bad Boy Records during its Arista Records years), mafioso hip-hop gradually lost its critical acclaim within the underground scene from which it originated. More importantly, The War Report is often credited with reviving East Coast and hardcore hip hop, signaling a return to realistic and gritty hardcore street aesthetics (defined by unapologetic tales of violence and drugs) and spelling an end to the surrealistic, ostentatious, and narratives of mafioso rap.
