It's the Roman Empire vs the Mongol Empire: https://www.polltab.com/m0-WBnT9jDKLo The Fat Electrician ‪@the_fat_electrician‬ tells the incredible story of Hiroshi "Hershey" Miyamura, a Japanese-American soldier whose Medal of Honor citation was the only one in U.S. history to be classified as Top Secret. During the Korean War in April 1951, Miyamura’s position was targeted by a massive Chinese assault, prompting him to order his squad to withdraw while he stayed behind to cover them. He single-handedly held off the enemy for hours, killing more than 50 soldiers using machine guns, his rifle, and even a bayonet in desperate hand-to-hand combat before being wounded and captured. Because the U.S. government feared his captors would execute him for such a devastating blow to their forces if they learned of his heroism, his award was kept strictly confidential for the 28 months he spent as a prisoner of war. Miyamura only learned he had received the nation's highest military honor upon his release in 1953, when a general finally revealed the "Top Secret" decoration that had been waiting for him.
