Abstract:
When Chinese Communist forces joined North Korea with the intention of annihilating an entire Marine Division at the Chosin Reservoir, Steve Jordan was there. These authentic Korean War sketches reflect what he witnessed while serving with the 1st Marine Division in one of the most epic battles in Marine Corps history. These drawings give true insight into the view of an enlisted man caught up in an immense happening, enduring cold, deprivation and combat, but still prevailing. The text is intended to provide the reader with necessary background and to encourage further reading about the Korean War.
