Funny you mentioned that, as last night I was watching some videos from Chosin, and not too long ago watched the PBS "Battle of Chosin".

It was bad enough to be grossly outnumbered, but to have weapons not work, and to be stuck out in such horrible conditions without being able to get/stay warm had to be beyond brutal and demoralizing.

Not to mention watching friends die due to exposure, lose fingers and limbs due to frostbite, etc had to be one of the worst things in their lives to ever deal with.


Plus watching the trucks haul away dead Americans who were frozen stiff and stacked like wood, had to have been heartbreaking.

Those guys who suffered through that have my utmost respect.
