Lewis (Chesty) Puller, was the most decorated soldier in the Marine Corps. Having received five Navy Crosses and attaining the rank of General, Chesty will always be a legendary Marine. During the Korean War, the Marines were greatly out-numbered at Chosin Reservoir. When told that his troops were surrounded Chesty said "we have them right where we want them. We won't let them get away this time". There are various versions of this quote that have been attributed to Chesty Puller concerning this battle, but this is the one I like the best.
