During the Korean War, American troops in the Chosin Reservoir were outnumbered 8 to 1, supplies were running low, temperatures plummeted to minus 25 degrees, and food was almost impossible to warm up. They were also running low on mortar shells. In ordering mortar shell resupplies, they used a codename established for the munitions: Tootsie Rolls. Somebody took that literally, however, and airdropped the beleaguered troops crates of the candy, instead. The story is, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise, enabling the American forces to be recharged and break out of the Chosin Reservoir, and fight their way to safety, and the men who survived the battle started calling themselves the “Chosin Few.” Is this story true, and if so, was the lucky misunderstanding a divine intervention?520 views0 answers0 votes
