The 65th Infantry Regiment arrives in Korea from Puerto Rico-with half of its outfit following it, and still to show up-and is immediately thrust into battle.
From the outset, the 65th proves to be one of the premier combat units of the Allied Army, participating in countless skirmishes, and repelling scores of assaults from the North Koreans. Then, the Regiment aids the 1st Marines to withdraw from the Chinese encirclement in the Chosin Reservoir, and keeps the Communist Armies at bay while the evacuation from the port of Hungnam of Allied troops, equipment, and thousands of refugees takes place. The book further describes how the 65th enters Seoul, the Capital of South Korea, before any other Allied unit after it is recaptured from the Communists, and describes many other significant historical events, as viewed through the eyes of the fictional squad from Bravo Company, 1st Battalion, of the Regiment.
Follow the truly inspiring story of the 65th Infantry Regiment in the Korean War, as it proves it is not a Rum and Coke Outfit.
