“Frozen Chosin” High Power Match

The Frozen Chosin High Power Match is held to commemorate the fight of the 1^st Division Marines
from the Chosin Reservoir in North Korea. The cold weather of December will be a reminder
of the bitter conditions of that battle where the Chinese enemy had greater troop strength,
excellent spirit and training, and good supplies for the weather. The U.S. Marines facing them
were outnumbered, facing a fierce and competent foe, and had not been
properly supplied with winter gear.

are not allowed in the match. Both permitted weapons must be in as-issued condition.
