Summary

“If I were God, what would you want for Christmas?” With a thousand-yard stare, a haggard and bloodied marine looked incredulously at the war correspondent who asked him this question. In an answer that took “almost forever,” the marine responded, “Give me tomorrow.”

After nearly four months of continuous and bloody combat in Korea, such a wish seemed impossible. For many of the men of George Company, or “Bloody George” - one of the Forgotten War’s most decorated yet unrecognized companies - this would be their last day.

This is the epic story of George Company, Spartans for the modern age. After storming ashore at Inchon and fighting house-to-house in Seoul, America’s last reserve unit found itself on the frozen tundra of the Chosin Reservoir facing an entire division of Chinese troops. Little did this small band of men - green troops who had been rushed through training to bring fresh forces to the war - know they would soon be saviors. This is their story, and it will never again be forgotten.

An important source about a forgotten war

A very honest and gripping story about a forgotten war. It becomes really clear how numb people become of war.

Fascinating gritty and enthralling

As a brit, American narration can sometimes grate but Lloyd James has a great tone and timbre to his voice that I can and have listened to for hours on end. it suits this fascinating story perfectly. I highly recommend this book and narrator.

Chilling

Lee

What an incredible story, the narration makes it even more hard hitting. I knew nothing of the Korean War and this book has inspired me to find out more about these heroic and inspiring souls who gave everything.

Very vivid picture of combat

I really enjoyed this book of this very epic story. Brilliantly written without being too graphic but you understand the true warriors were. I recommend it to all people who want to understand the horror of war
