Frozen Chosin: American Warrior

H. never discussed his time in the Pacific with others, especially his wife. He continued not to tell his family about all the dangers he would face when he was called to go to North Korea under the most extraordinary circumstances. Traveling from the Great Lakes of Chicago to Washington, Tokyo, and finally Korea, H. was one of the countless young men who made up those called "The Greatest Generation." These were the warriors who were called upon once again to make huge personal sacrifices while answering the call of duty, which trickled down through the orders from the elite military brass in Washington and beyond.

Over ten thousand U.S. Military servicemen sacrificed their lives on the Chosin Reservoir; an additional seven thousand or more dedicated Marines perished due to missteps from the military leaders and the brutally cold conditions. Frozen Chosin is a dedication to the bravery and avoidable sacrifice made by so many young American soldiers fighting on foreign soil in service to their government.
