The Marines battle at Chosin is rightly remembered, as they went through the Chicoms like
Caesar through Gaul. (Wasn't that where Chesty Puller said, "They've got us
surrounded--they won't get away this time!) But the Army was there, too

According to _Breakout_ by Martin Russ, the Army units up north were
so inept they were a burden on the marines, rather than help. They had
to be rescued by the marines as the latter fought their way out.

The Army's performance was so bad the U.S. Congress conducted an
investigation to determine what went wrong and why.
