11-199 Garand Picture of the Day - Chosin Reservoir

[Bob Seijas]

Read "The Last Stand of Fox Company" by Drury and Clavin if you want the whole fantastic story. It is one of the greatest feats of arms in American history. I recently wrote up the story of Hector Cafferata who also was awarded the MOH for that battle ... his CO said, "I am personally convinced that Hector accounted for over 100 of the enemy on that first night, but I was afraid it would not be believed so cut it down to 35." The citation said, "More than 15." Go here: http://www.montvillenj.org/docs/GCAJournalCafferata.pdf
