North Korea, October 30, 1950. The night sky erupts in chaos as Chinese forces launch a massive assault on the 8th Cavalry Regiment near Unsan. Amidst the deafening roar of gunfire and explosions, one soldier stands out – Corporal Ted Rubin.

For 24 grueling hours, Rubin mans a .30 caliber machine gun. Three previous gunners have already fallen, but Rubin remains. His last stand slows the enemy's advance, buying precious time for his comrades to retreat southward. Only when his ammunition is completely exhausted does Rubin's gun fall silent.

As dawn breaks on October 31, Rubin finds himself severely wounded and in the hands of the Chinese. His captors smirk, believing they've snared just another American soldier. But they couldn't be more wrong. Beneath that uniform lies a secret that will become their worst nightmare. COL Randall C.
