Tootsie Rolls…

An odd little story from the Marine Corps history…

Chosin Reservoir Korea, December 1950…

It’s ALWAYS about communications… And the ‘fog of war’…

  1. Isn’t it something that the Pogies in the back can screw up and actually do something that turned out to be right? Now I will enjoy a Tootsie Roll even more.

  2. Yep, every once in awhile, the rear echelon folks get something right … even if it’s for the wrong reason. 🙂

  3. LL- Me neither! Although I ‘still’ don’t care for them…

    CP- Good point!

    Rev- LOL, yep!!!

  4. Very few outside of the Corps understand the significance of the Chosin.

    “They don’t make em like they used to.”

  5. Brighid- True!!! OH so true!!!

    Anti- Yep, and having met a couple of those folks, truer words were never said…

    Fuzzy- Understood!
