Hal and I read the review in Naval Institute Press and spent the end of November 2007 reading the book.


We found many of our pen pals featured in this powerful treatise of the battles of 1953.


This is a powerful book, to say the least.


Reviews by Joe Galloway and Hal Moore, Lt. General, USA (Ret), co-authors of We Were Soldiers Once  And Young.


Ron Freedman put us in touch with Bill and we are grateful for that.


Excerpt from email:  and On Hallowed Ground, which tells the story of the July 1953 battle for Pork Chop Hill - while summarizing the first 36 months of the Korean War, and the two previous battles for the outpost, in March and April. As David Davino wrote in his article in Military History magazine, the battles for Pork Chop in essence became a single metaphor for the entire Korean War.
