What is the Christmas stalk of Changjin Lake?
MacArthur of Changjin Lake said: If you hit the Yalu River, you can go home for Christmas. As a matter of fact, soldiers from the 1st Marine Division went home for Christmas. And our volunteer soldiers still maintain the posture of taking the lead.

1950, the South China People's Volunteers fought against the US military in the Changjin Lake area of North Korea. Chinese people's Volunteer Army's 9th Corps divided and surrounded the US 1 division in the Changjin Lake area, annihilated the enemy 1.3 million people, and reversed the battlefield situation.
This campaign recovered the vast area north of the 38th parallel, which was a key battle to turn the situation around, and Chinese people's Volunteer Army also paid a painful sacrifice. In the extreme weather of MINUS 30 degrees Celsius, many martyrs were shot, which reflected the revolutionary spirit that volunteers obeyed orders and refused to retreat even if they were frozen into ice sculptures.
