Items related to One Bugle, No Drums: The Marines at Chosin Reservoir
Korea, December 1950. The temperature has plunged to 20-degrees below zero. Cold enough to crack rocket-launcher ammo wide open. But not cold enough to stop a massive Communist assault against U.S. forces. As the 8th Army retreats, the Marines dig in at Chosin Reservoir and are quickly cut off and surrounded. This is the riveting account of what happened next. The brilliant Marine attack that was to become a classic in military operations. The personal heroism, private ordeals, bitter fighting, and final victory. Told in the powerful words of a man who was there, it is a story you will never forget.

About the Author:
From Library Journal:

Hopkins was a reserve Marine captain who was recalled to active service when North Korea invaded South Korea in 1950. He was assigned to Headquarters Company, 1st Battalion, 1st Marine Division, and his unit was one of those encircled at Chosin when the Chinese entered the war. Hopkins describes the action as the Marines fought their way south in the sub-zero weather. Included are his observations on MacArthur's headquarters, intelligence estimates, and the pluses and minuses of indiscriminate use of air power. There is also a hitherto unpublished classified report on the action by S.L.A. Marshall. Maps and photos not seen. A popular account recommended for appropriate collections. Military Book Club selection. George F. Scheck, Naval War Coll. Lib., Newport,
