"It seems strangely difficult for some to realize that here in Asia is where the communist conspirators have elected to make their play for global conquest, and that we have joined the issue thus raised on the battlefield; that here we fight Europe's war with arms while the diplomats there still fight it with words; that if we lose the war to communism in Asia the fall of Europe is inevitable, win it and Europe most probably would avoid war and yet preserve freedom. As you pointed out, we must win. There is no substitute for victory."

Who knew Europe would fall to Islam anyway?

When I've been outside during a particularly cold western NY winter (like today), I've often thought of what those Marines endured at the Chosin - and throughout the entire war.
