Nope: That quote is from Gen Chesty Puller, United States Marine Corps, who was in command of the First Marine Division at Chosin, Korea, when he found the allied flanks on either side of him had collapsed and he was facing roughly seven Chineese divisions trying to encircle and demolish his command. He got his division out, and ground up a few chineese divisions in the process.
