These men were completely beat. They lay huddled in foxholes, unable to move. They all had the thousand-yard stare of men who'd seen too much fighting, too much death. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lloyd%20L.%20Burke | 8266911 | 8 | 48f09d1303196f06f6032887beaae867105e7606389cbf64cb9c1e6e775cc885 | 167 | 39 |
Burke dragged up a 57 mm recoilless rifle and shot three rounds at the closest enemy bunker. The bunker itself was a wooden-fronted structure covering a cave, which was dug into the overall hillside. The Chinese attacked American troops by hurling grenades from their trenches. Burke aimed his M1 rifle at the trench lin... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lloyd%20L.%20Burke | 8266911 | 9 | 2bc1f0b2d299638dff1eef054b4667ce50c2adf823a7a268360d51146448da49 | 630 | 132 |
After laying down his rifle, Burke took a grenade and ran approximately to the Chinese trench line. He avoided enemy fire by hurling himself at the base of a dirt berm that was high. When the Chinese momentarily stopped firing, Burke jumped into one of the trenches with a pistol in one hand and a grenade in the other... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lloyd%20L.%20Burke | 8266911 | 10 | b8080f331f09713c2fa335ff0b037e7240ebcf954635a7af642782e4c4d42879 | 968 | 196 |
Burke abandoned the dirt berm by crawling off to the side, where he found cover in a gully. The gully itself ended further up Hill 200 at a Korean burial mound. After edging his way up the hill, Burke peeked over the top of the burial mound. He saw the main Chinese trench, which was approximately away.

Meanwhile, Sergeant Foster led a small group to Burke's location and was told by Burke to provide extra firepower. Burke and the others were convinced that they were under siege from a full-sized force instead of a few adamant skirmishers.
