In the third year of the Korean War, a young Army officer arrived in Korea for combat duty. He was assigned to the U.S. 31st Infantry Regiment, code name Bearcat. For almost two years he had been preparing to lead infantry soldiers in combat. Little of that training, however, had equipped him for what now awaited him as the new commander of Bearcat I&R (the regimental Intelligence and Reconnaissance platoon)--a unit best described in retrospect as a cross between "F-Troop" and "The Dirty Dozen."
