520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. |
Summary, etc |
June, 1950: the North Korean army, a formidable force backed by Soviet arms and training, invades South Korea, with the intent of uniting the country under Communist rule. In response, the United States mobilizes a force to defend the over matched South Korean troops. But the American and United nations troops are fighting for their lives against the most brutal weather conditions imaginable, and an enemy that outnumbers them more than six to one. We follow the battle for the Chosin Reservoir from multiple points of view: Oliver P. Smith, the commanding general of the American 1st Marine Division; Marine Private Pete Riley, a World War II veteran who now faces the greatest fight of his life; and the Chinese commander Sung Shi-Lun, charged with destroying the Americans he has so completely surrounded. |
