Chosin Reservoir

I realize this isn't exactly an UWOA briefback however out of this event did come some UWOA warriors.
While at Ft Bragg I crossed paths with a Mr. Foxworth who was Army at Chosin. My understanding he was a 10th SFG Plank Holder asked to stand up the unit at it's inception. No doubt he was a tough individual, when I meet him has was battling cancer and had no upper palate...that didn't seem to slow him down a bit. I think of him and his kindness often. While I had heard of the Chosin Reservoir I had never followed the Korean Conflict much.

A startling portrayal of that battle...Note it is nearly two hours in length.
