Very excited by the new range being released, so I thought I'd do a bit of an internet search for Korean War related resources.I'm mostly looking at  pdfs at the moment, and ignoring Americans as there is literally oodles of stuff bout 'em. 

US Army evaluation of the Chinese. dated 1960 but talks a lot about the Korean War and there are many interesting pictures.

Got what I needed. A NKA infantry company was strength 125: 
   HQ of 2 officers, 13 men
   HMG of 1 officer 13 men with 2x HMG
   3 x platoons of HQ (1 off, 1 man) + 3 x sections (10 men incl LMG)
