RED DRAGONS: THE 2ND CHEMICAL MORTAR BATTALION IN KOREA

By Walter J Eldredge

With Red Dragons Walter Eldredge continues in Korea the story of the 2nd Chemical Mortar Battalion that he began in World War II with Finding My Father's War. This was the only Chemical Mortar battalion to serve in Korea. As the unit they supported were relieved, the mortars remained in the line for 1007 consecutive days to support the replacements. More than 18 divisions of four nation relied on their accuracy and massive weight of fire. Eldredge captures the confusion and courage of gun position overwhelmed in night attacks, of ceaseless enemy barrages, of dirt and bad water and bitter cold, the fatigue yet another move to support another unit in another fight for another hill.
