i met a fellow who manned one of those quad 50s at a  lawyer freinds office ( i swear everyone in texas over 40 is a vet)he told us about it said they had to have special guys to go push the bodys that piled up near the guns down with special long sticks between waves,
 as they would form a ramp and get in the field of fire (and the guns were on elivated posittions!! ( he said it went on for days) and almost none of them had guns, just sticks and such. he was a texas cowboy, type where if you arent a freind/kin killin you is just a thing ( zen masters in a way) he wouldent even estimate the numbers, said he couldent even guess hundreds of thousands at his small, 4 guns in a valley pass position


make you wonder anout the chinese side of the story why the heck did they allow this to be done to them ? anyone know the chinese side of this ?

dang sad all around didnt acomplish anything,
like pickets charge an anacranism

Towd, it's HATRED.

Just imagine Russian soldiers in a bayonet attack. Everyone knows that only one of ten will survive, but they rise and attack.

Once I talked to a former infantry platoon commander. (very few of them survived at all) He said he just can't remember what happened during bayonet attacks...

Another man told me that they didn't even take their "narkom's" 100grams of vodka before the attack. The ones who drank it died first. They just HATED. That's all...

sheesh what did we do to them? i dont mean to be sarcastic for once.

russians not needen any help to attack a larger force with greatly inferior wepons i can see (you boys wanted a pound of flesh and got it).

but he chinese soldier had to be more of a farmer herded into war. unless they have a huge "mass of unarmed cannonfodder corps" in the chinese army.
 hey i dont say they dont i just think they must have to misslead those poor stick armed fellows.

unlike your galent forfathers in russian who were fighting a uninvited  war of genocide.

and cool that they gave you a belt before dieing think it would help 100grams is 1/10 a right just enough to get a good buzz if you belt it on a empty stomach.

you boys got my respect. im still tryin to decide about the motivations of our chinese freinds
