Amazing day today. We interviewed a veteran named Jerry who served with the Army in the 31st RCT on the east side of the Chosin Reservoir. His unit was drastically short on everything from ammo to communications equipment, but his story was proof that this battle was hard fought by Soldiers as well as Marines. Probably one of our best interviews yet, and the first that we've had with a gentleman who was a part of Task Force Faith-- a crucial piece of the Chosin Reservoir story. Jerry and his wife Phoebe welcomed us into their house as if we were family, and we enjoyed some home-made Lebanese food and good conversation before it was time for us to get back on the road. We were truly honored to be so welcomed.
We've got a long drive back north tonight, then it's time to get started on planning for California. May is just around the bend.
Semper Fi,
Anton
