 STRIFE! History's Conflicts Podcast: In October 1952, the Battle of Jackson Heights became a defining trial for the65th Infantry Regiment, the Borinqueneers. This Puerto Rican unit was orderedto hold a contested outpost complex against determined Chinese assaults. Thefighting was a brutal, close-quarters struggle for tactically insignificanthills that commanded a high cost in blood. The ordeal of the 65th at Jackson Heights and the subsequent mass court-martial of its soldiers laid bare the harsh realities of a stalemated war, where immense human sacrifice was weighed against obscure tactical gains, and where the loyalties of colonial subjects were tested by the pressures of combat and discrimination.
