The Last Stand of Fox Company: A True Story of U.S. Marines in Combat

“Bob Drury and Tom Clavin have set the standard for wartime accounts on the Korean conflict. Packed with fascinating personal accounts of courage and sacrifice on the part of a handful of marines assigned to keep thousands of Communist Chinese soldiers from breaking through the strategic Toktong Pass in 1950, this is a story that is almost too incredible to be true. Told largely in the words of the participants, The Last Stand of Fox Company deftly captures the spirit of the marine corps and its legendary tenacity on the battlefield.” – Dr. Charles P. Neimeyer
“Bob Drury and Tom Clavin have written a paean worthy of one of the most extraordinary battles in marine corps history. You can almost feel Korea’s biting cold, and hear the terrifying bugles in the dark. Most of all, they remind us that although the places and dates change, the valor of America’s fighting forces remains the same. A magnificent book.” – Nathaniel Fick
