The Sino--Soviet border conflict was a seven-month military conflict between the Soviet Union and China at the height of the Sino--Soviet split in 1969. The most serious of these border clashes occurred in March 1969 in the vicinity of Zhenbao Island, also known as Damanskii Island in Russia. Chinese historians most commonly refer to the conflict by the Zhenbao Island Incident. 60,000 ethnic Uyghurs in China's Xinjiang Province crossed the frontier into the Soviet Union, fleeing the desperate economic conditions. Beijing immediately accused the Soviets of subverting the Uyghur population.

On March 2, 1969, a group of Chinese troops ambushed Soviet border guards on Zhenbao Island. The Soviets suffered 58 dead, including a senior colonel, and 94 wounded. They retaliated on March 15 by bombarding Chinese troop concentrations on the Chinese bank of the Ussuri and by storming Zhenbao Island.

China's relations with the USSR remained sour after the conflict, despite the border talks, which began in 1969 and lasted inconclusively for a decade. Domestically, the threat of war, caused by the border clashes, inaugurated a new stage in the Cultural Revolution; that of China's thorough militarization. Overall, the Sino--Soviet confrontation, which reached its peak in 1969, paved the way to a profound transformation in the international political system and shattered post-World War II bipolarity.

Also don't judge by age, I taught some mini-Marines bounding and angles, they sponged up the knowledge and we wasted a few sniper teams. Good Times!
