Nah, no mines. The Chinese were not really that well dug into the hill at the time. They were getting situated when the Marines decided to pay them a "visit."

The last of the three will be going up today. This is a little different also.

In the first fight, you have single man units. In this one, regular squad units. Now in the last one, I've taken the Marine "fireteam" concept and developed it for a defensive fight.

On the next morning, December 6th, part of the battalion was ordered to hold off any Chinese who might come over the hill with the intent of disrupting the Marine withdrawal to the south.

So what you have in the last one are "fire team" of a platoon holding off the Chinese advance. It gives you a new perspective on how a fireteam works.

For those who might not know, in the last years of WW2, the Marines developed a squad of 13 men, a squad leader and three fireteams, each based around a BAR man.

Look for it today or tomorrow, J2K
