Nah just kidding
There is an interesting project at Kickstarter for an animated movie on Chosin. Not too sure they will generate enough interest or have a big enough market but i wish them well

...wait until Kayoz find out, and start ranting about the suffering of Zipperheads will not be displayed right, and doubt that the producer know enuf about the military in general, and the Marines especially ;)
It is indeed odd that Chosin has been somewhat overlooked by popular media outlets when you consider what an incredible fight it was. I've read a couple accounts of the battle and it was by every measure a true test of tenacity, professionalism, sacrifice and heroism.
I like that he is thinking of doing this with animation...a format that allows certain kinds of artistic interprettation and engagement that, if and when used properly, create compelling emotional engagement.
I haven't "kick-started" anything, but I probably will this.
I think that back in the 50s, the marines made a documentary movie on Chosin in Black&White.
There was a TV show, "Uncommon Valor" and it was either on that, or perhaps Walter Cronkite's show, The Twentieth Century.
Probably not available, but you never know.
