When the Chinese Communist armies came piling down from Manchuria to drive General MacArthur's UN forces back from the Yalu River dams in North Korea in 1950, the 1st US Marine Division at the icy Chosin Reservoir was cut off and quickly surrounded. Captain William B Hopkins was commanding officer of H&S Company, 1st Battalion, 1st Marines. In sub-zero darkness he and his men moved up Hill 1081 with other 1st Battalion units. A chinese Communist regiment occupied the heights that prevented rebuilding of a blown-out bridge span below, on the only road by which the 1st Division could extricate itself. The attack that followed has ever since been known as a classic in military operations.
