Title: For Those Who Wonder
Review: My cousin was in the same regiment. However, he was never one to talk much of it. Ciliberti provides a very good accounting of most of the involvement of the 5/1 Marines in Korea, along with a fair dose of commentary from the soldier's point of view. It made good reading and I am glad some of my cousin's family also read the book. It is not so deep as to bog down the light reader, so even those not familiar with the military were enlightened. This is one of the Marine's greatest battles. Korea (the war) is so little understood by Americans. The book helps bring it into focus. A recent book "The Last Stand of Fox Company" is a good supporting book for this one - for the student of history who wants to dig deeper - especially into the Chosin Campaign. me3tv.org
