The campaign in North Korea was truly brutal and is a fascinating story. The Army's 2d Inf Division and 1st Cav Division were decimated and 8th Army was lucky to extricate itself at all. In the East X Corps was also badly beat up. But the USMC and Chesty Puller secured it's place in history with its running fight south across the Chosin Reservoir. Interesting article in Stars and Stripes on the 64th Anniversary of that battle. http://www.stripes.com/military-lif...calls-battle-that-began-64-years-ago-1.316334
