I met this man. The unit he served in during the Korean War is the same unit I went to Iraq with. Before we deployed, he came and spoke with us in the Barracks. He might look like an unassuming old man, but we all felt like we were in the presence of a giant. Amazing human.
he barely touched on it but this mans love for his brother and the pain of his loss gave him the one thing you need to get the metal of honor, fearlessness. he needed to protect his soldiers because he saw his brother in all of them, incredible
He was the man that the U.S. government wanted all our boys to be. For lack of a better term he was a killing machine. Well versed in all forms of being a solider. I say that with all due respect. Also as I listen it’s respectful that he address the interviewer as “sir” every single time.
You probably like actors like Arnold Swartznegar! Yet when it's real life all of a sudden a person cant defend themselves or their country which is more honorable than any actor has ever been!
I met this awesome man and his lovely wife in the Dayton airport back in 2008, and I was awestruck at his story. After he showed me the CMOH that he carried in his fanny pack (watershed moment for me), he leaned over close to me and said “and I would do I all again in a heartbeat”. He was truly a larger than life Soldier. God bless him and his wonderful wife.
Do you truly believe the whole story? Like just between you and I lol. You have to admit fighting off being pinned down by 12 men just to kill them all. Even if they didn't have weapons that's hard to believe but these guys had guns too lol
Yeah crazy man lol he had a guardian angel fr maybe he was a virgin di wonder if that helps? Like. Lol like your extra holy like anyway lol he said it was hard for him to make friends lol that’s why I thought maybe it had something to do with him surviving lol
I wonder if he's as honest as Marcus lutrell? He's a compulsive liar as well.. never seen someone who was so cool with talking about killing thousands of people... sounds like he thinks hes Rambo... and he ain't. He's a liar
Lmfao you believe this story? "I killed thousands" lol come on. That's not how war works. Some how he went Rambo killing thousands of people lol come on
Man oh man ,to hear a soldier talk this way with such brutal honesty is really something ! A movie should be made about his war experiences. God Bless and RIP
U actually beleive everything he said?? 1 man vs hundreds soldiers? With machine guns and theyre all missing the target but yet hes killing them all lol gtfoh! This guy is lying
@jlo7770 not any more. Back then there were allot. Today's generations are trash. Scared little boys who couldn't put out half the effort of these men.
Rosser's official Medal of Honor citation reads: Cpl. Rosser, distinguished himself by conspicuous gallantry above and beyond the call of duty. While assaulting heavily fortified enemy hill positions, Company L, 38th Infantry Regiment, was stopped by fierce automatic-weapons, small-arms, artillery, and mortar fire. Cpl. Rosser, a forward observer, was with the lead platoon of Company L when it came under fire from 2 directions. Cpl. Rosser turned his radio over to his assistant and, disregarding the enemy fire, charged the enemy positions armed with only carbine and a grenade. At the first bunker, he silenced its occupants with a burst from his weapon. Gaining the top of the hill, he killed 2 enemy soldiers, and then went down the trench, killing 5 more as he advanced. He then hurled his grenade into a bunker and shot 2 other soldiers as they emerged. Having exhausted his ammunition, he returned through the enemy fire to obtain more ammunition and grenades and charged the hill once more. Calling on others to follow him, he assaulted 2 more enemy bunkers. Although those who attempted to join him became casualties, Cpl. Rosser once again exhausted his ammunition, obtained a new supply, and returning to the hilltop a third time hurled grenades into the enemy positions. During this heroic action Cpl. Rosser single-handedly killed at least 13 of the enemy. After exhausting his ammunition he accompanied the withdrawing platoon, and though himself wounded, made several trips across open terrain still under enemy fire to help remove other men injured more seriously than himself. This outstanding soldier's courageous and selfless devotion to duty is worthy of emulation by all men. He has contributed magnificently to the high traditions of the military service.

My father was an 18 year old mortar crew member and carried a M-1 carbine during the battle for Chosin. When we would dear hunt as a child I would ask my father why wasn’t he cold. He said he was one of the frozen Chosin. He didn’t get cold anymore. He would tell other veterans stories and I would hide and listen. He hated the m-1 carbine. He had shot several Chinese in the upper torso, saw the hits and then had to use the rifle to beat them in the head before they would stop charging. Everybody thinks my dad was a marine but he was army.
My dad was there also, but as a radioman in the Marines. Never heard him speak about it when I was a kid -at least not that I recall, but when I reached about 35 I asked him about it and he told me enough to realize it would have been terrifying. He said there were times/places where they were out numbered 200 to one.
My dad broke up an M-1 carbine over a coconut log on Saipan after he emptied a magazine on a Japanese officer charging down a hill with a sword only for him to collapse at his feet. His gunnery sergeant said that’s government property, but my dad said he wanted a BAR. His gunny said that they were heavy, but there were plenty lying around. My dad was a .50 machine gunner. He’d had malaria and appendicitis and weighed under 130 lbs. , 6 feet tall by then. He’s a skinny rail in the photos from Saipan. He had a .45 pistol in a shoulder holster, a BAR, and as many hand grenades as he could fit. He got hit in the hand, but he also rejected the purple heart. He also talks about defending his Marines.
@@edhodapp6465 my dad always bent over slowly and stood up slow. He got hit in the lower back by a Chinese weapon that he had a copy of. They threw him on a jeep that had the tires shot up. When he got to aid station they couldn’t lift him off the jeep. Where he had bled was frozen and he was stuck. They used bayonets to un-stick him. I watched a lot of war movies growing up and asked was he in ww2. He said he was too young.
@@dennismcleod7391 No one remembers the Korean War. I do, but then my wife is Korean. I learned enough from my dad that war is horrible beyond belief. When I hear these celebrities saying we should send our young people to some god-forsaken part of the globe I always think, “Hey dummy! I’ll buy you a rifle and you can go!” I remember meeting a Navy corpsman in a bar after work who was at the Second Battle of Fallujah. He might as well have had PTSD tattooed on his forehead. It’s not worth fighting a war unless the survival of the nation is at stake.
This soldier asked not what his country could do for him rather what he could do for his country. This is what every combat soldier who has ever been down range should aspire to be. Semper Fidelis sir.
This is the best military interview I’ve seen. Talk about a guy with true gallantry and grit, Rosser used his grief over his little brother to literally execute the enemy with prejudice. I guess every fighting man was afraid except him!

Thank you so so much for fighting against communists in Korean War and saving our country. As a third generation of N Korean refuge family, I grew up listening all the wartime and postwar stories, ya'll are heroes and have very special place in our hearts. And we wouldn't be here today without your help and sacrifice. God bless you.
My Uncle Homer Lawson fought in Korea commanding a sherman tank, was wounded twice and lost the hearing in his left ear. For many yrs after he had terrible nightmares the war really haunted him. I've read comments like yours a few times and it truly warms my heart.
@@warrenchambers4819 Hi Warren, thank you for your kind comment. Pls give my warm regards and respects (with many thanks) to your uncle Homer next time you talk to him. Both my maternal and paternal families are from North, so we are probably more grateful for these brave young soldiers who fought and rooted for us to the end. Because of the individual heroes like your uncle, South Korea has become what we are today and being able to achieve a lot of things, we never forget this as a fact. I hope your uncle feels proud of himself saving many lives during the war and still affecting lives of future generations after the war. I mean, if it wasn't for US and these soldiers, ppl like me and my brother wouldn't have gained any chance to study in the states in the first place if we were living under so-called communkst's democratic regime. Current Korea president is visiting US this week and our alliance is strong as ever, your uncle should feel proud of himself for playing the part from the beginning. I know Korean War was named "fogotten war" by many, but the truth is Koreans never forgot them. It just broke my heart however when you mentioned he has nightmares and post war traumas.. hope my comment could help ease his pain away a little more when you get a chance to tell him. Thanks, Warren. From Seoul, Jung.
I met his niece two weeks ago who told me about this man who is her uncle. I was in Korea for 31 months in the army 50 years ago. I am honored this generation fought before me.
My Dad was a Dirty Man in Korea, very Faithful to His duty. He told me several combat stories that my siblings never knew. That generation was tougher than Hell. Thank You Dad for making Me a tough S.O.B. Love You Dad. And thanks to All tough veterans.

It is well documented on the casualties from the enemies due to his battalion. The story was confirmed. The reason the enemy was attacking him is because they ran out of ammo like him so he beat them to death in hand to hand combat.

America is free because of his sacrifices. We live under the umbrella of the freedom this man and others like him gave us. Don't ever forget that, I won't and neither will my children. Thank you! God bless all who serve, fight and died for us.
Thank you for your service 🙏 I assume you're a Marine by your screen name. You are part of the reason why I have my rights and other Americans. Thank you again for your service 🫡
Wish I had the chance to sit down and talk to my grandpa's about their experience in World War II they both died before I was old enough to understand the gravity of the situation they went through
He was able to infiltrate enemy lines to the point they ran out of ammo and so did he and he would just beat them to death. He was a menance on the battlefield and to the enemies. What a true hero
@@JohnDavis-yz9nq yes. That was my biggest cause of stress. I almost killed a civilian one day, who jumped out of a car and came running toward shouting in arabic. I raised my weapon and was about to fire, but my buddy knew some Arabic, and stopped me, and said he is only asking directions. So glad I didn't have his death on my conscience! Thank you for your service, bro!
Shame on u for killing innocent iraqi civilians who had nothing to do with 9/11 to begin with. U were lied to by israel who controls the US president/ government! Netanyahu told bush iraq had weapons of mass destruction just so they can eliminate him for israel.
My grandfather was a marine pilot during Korea. Man never spoke a word of it. Didn't know he was a Marine until he died. I knew he loved planes tho. Had a whole aviation library.
My father who died last year, fought in Korea and his unit was surrounded by the Chinese for 5 days. God bless this brave man and ALL of those who served our Nation in the Forgotten War! Vietnam vets talk about no recognition, and that was true. But Korean veterans got even less !! That is why it was called the Forgotten War !
In all fairness, most of the recognition the Vietnam boys got was unwanted. I'm sure they would rather have received none at all. But it is sad how little is known about the Korean war by younger generations today
This man went from a paratrooper to a forward observer! I worked with a lot of forward observers. One of my good friends was an observer in the marines. To this day, forward observers have been my favorite soldier. I love those guys.
I sure like this hero soldier. Did his job as he was trained to do and never stopped doing it until his job will be over someday. Thank you for your service to America.
He said, “In fact, when things would get real hot, I’d start to laughing. I never was afraid of those people.” I believe this is one of the first times I’ve seen a soldier make the claim that they weren’t afraid in the heat of the battle where I truly believed them. What a true to life badass! Thank you for your service, Sir!!
You know, I've heard a hundred vets at this point say, "If you ever meet someone who claims they were never afraid during combat, they're a liar." But when you take in this man's story and you look in his eyes, I'll be damned if anyone thinks this man has lied about a single thing.
One in a million chance of getting through that alive. After Hearing many stories of battle. It’s when you the soldier has already come to terms with the likelihood that your not getting out of this situation alive that the fearlessness gets them through it. Amazing could make a movie out of the battle he’s talking about him ending up being the main character. Hopefully someone with a brain looks into it cause I love a good legit war movie. And this story is perfect. Not leading with it off the get go but ending with it being the main story that unfolds. Sorry just thinking out loud
This man is the biggest liar, wake up and use common sense! Yah 1 man vs 35 chinese ppl only 3 ft away and they couldnt kill him? Yet they all ran away from him or got killed. Then he runs out of ammo and goes bk down the hill while everyone shooting at him but they all miss?? He comes bk and 1 vs 200 soldiers now and he wins?? Come on man use ur head! Some ppl have a habit of lying and making stories up. I knew someone who use to talk like this but was a coward

This dude is the real deal, and why America is the greatest country ever. Thanks for your service. 🇺🇸
Greatest Country 😂😅
Too many illegals invading usa now
@@jaywalker3087The fact that you can laugh at this proves Patty's argument.
Thank you so so much for fighting against communists in Korean War and saving our country. As a third generation of N Korean refuge family, I grew up listening all the wartime and postwar stories, ya'll are heroes and have very special place in our hearts. And we wouldn't be here today without your help and sacrifice. God bless you.
My Uncle Homer Lawson fought in Korea commanding a sherman tank, was wounded twice and lost the hearing in his left ear. For many yrs after he had terrible nightmares the war really haunted him. I've read comments like yours a few times and it truly warms my heart.
@@warrenchambers4819 Hi Warren, thank you for your kind comment. Pls give my warm regards and respects (with many thanks) to your uncle Homer next time you talk to him. Both my maternal and paternal families are from North, so we are probably more grateful for these brave young soldiers who fought and rooted for us to the end. Because of the individual heroes like your uncle, South Korea has become what we are today and being able to achieve a lot of things, we never forget this as a fact. I hope your uncle feels proud of himself saving many lives during the war and still affecting lives of future generations after the war. I mean, if it wasn't for US and these soldiers, ppl like me and my brother wouldn't have gained any chance to study in the states in the first place if we were living under so-called communkst's democratic regime. Current Korea president is visiting US this week and our alliance is strong as ever, your uncle should feel proud of himself for playing the part from the beginning. I know Korean War was named "fogotten war" by many, but the truth is Koreans never forgot them. It just broke my heart however when you mentioned he has nightmares and post war traumas.. hope my comment could help ease his pain away a little more when you get a chance to tell him. Thanks, Warren. From Seoul, Jung.
@@warrenchambers4819has no reason to be there
I met his niece two weeks ago who told me about this man who is her uncle. I was in Korea for 31 months in the army 50 years ago. I am honored this generation fought before me.
Glad you made it home Ronald and I hope you are well. I was a first Lieutenant of Artillery Forward Observer in the central highlands of Vietnam.
Thank you Sir for your service. I do not have enough words to express my sincere gratitude. God bless you!
My Dad was a Dirty Man in Korea, very Faithful to His duty. He told me several combat stories that my siblings never knew. That generation was tougher than
Hell. Thank You Dad for making Me a tough S.O.B. Love You Dad. And thanks to All tough veterans.
Thank you for your Service & Sacrifice S.F.C. Ronald E. Rosser! Sincerely, a Combat Veteran!
My father is a Korean War vet. He passed in April from cancer! This dude here is a true bada** though
Is that an April's fools joke? This man can obviously kill cancer with a blunt object.
Yup. Floyd (at Boeing) had been there.
This guy is hard as hell! He smiles when he talks about it. I love it!
They should make a movie about this veteran
They don’t have enough Chinese actors to play dead.
I agree! I want to read of his record.
It's the Audie Murphy story done Korean...
They should 4 real
@@fredbowles4721 same luv 2 have a drink with this man!
God Emperor bless this sweet old man. His happiness when describing liberty saving events is priceless.
The machine gunner who spared this man's life, is beyond honorable, and should be respected. I hope he survived the war.
Definitely more honorable than the guy being interviewed
@@ticket2space621 You're out of line in few ways.
Are you a U.S citizen?!
@@robr1656 oh I'm in line just fine I'm just not on my knees where you want me. I am a citizen here cause I was born here not cause I was sold a dream. Your beloved country can't give me any rights either so don't start. Most you can do is take them away. Also, this guy's the bad guy in a LOT of civilians stories so you can suck him up all you want but you're not gonna convince me of anything. why is it when someone kills people over here theyre called a terrorist? But when we do it we're heroes? Idek which video this one is. Is this the guy who killed civilians? Or the pos that said he tried to kill as many people as he can? Either way what a loser
@@robr1656 let's be honest bro I really don't care what you have to say about it. Anyone that brags about killing or talks about it like a fond memory or feels like they did it for any other reason than to save their own life is a shtbag. Save your time cousin lover go whine about how murica is so cool to someone with a low enough iq to believe it
@@ticket2space621 How so?
Wow: A Military Superman: Was Col. Ronald Rosser. Born 10/24/1929 -08/26/2020 (aged 90) RIP Sir. Salute! 👍
15 minutes in and his stories become tales and fables
Fables? That’s quite an accusation.
lol 😂 well.. the survivors accounts were almost identical
Anyone who served with him knows Yvonne is misinformed at best.
It is well documented on the casualties from the enemies due to his battalion. The story was confirmed. The reason the enemy was attacking him is because they ran out of ammo like him so he beat them to death in hand to hand combat.
This Mr. Ronald Rosser is truly a warrior. He had/has no fear
I love this man, what a legend!!
@@glockspecific7757 no the story of that soldier from new jersey WW2 at Guadalcanal story on Band of Brothers series was a real bad dude not this fugasie story teller unbelievable this soldier from jersey was a real deal they have a celebration every year go look him up not this clown 🤡
Crazy. Just looking at this guy, u would never know this little old man is a staight up savage!
BAD ASS. Thank you for your service, Sir.
What an absolutely incredible man. He deserves a super sized Medal Of Honor. An American hero.
He's dead so getting nothing.
He's a psychopath. If he wasnt in a war he'd be a serial killer. Man enjoys reliving the kills a little too much
Unbelievable , this is the first I've heard of Ronald Rosser , what a crazy man !! God was looking after him !
This man is incredible---a true superhero. I wish all men had his courage and resolve to protect others.
This interview needs to be shown in every middle and high school. This is the kind of person worthy of celebration and respect, not Hollywood celebrities and politicians.
MoH citation reads:
"Cpl. Rosser, distinguished himself by conspicuous gallantry above and beyond the call of duty. While assaulting heavily fortified enemy hill positions, Company L, 38th Infantry Regiment, was stopped by fierce automatic-weapons, small-arms, artillery, and mortar fire. Cpl. Rosser, a forward observer, was with the lead platoon of Company L when it came under fire from 2 directions. Cpl. Rosser turned his radio over to his assistant and, disregarding the enemy fire, charged the enemy positions armed with only carbine and a grenade. At the first bunker, he silenced its occupants with a burst from his weapon. Gaining the top of the hill, he killed 2 enemy soldiers, and then went down the trench, killing 5 more as he advanced. He then hurled his grenade into a bunker and shot 2 other soldiers as they emerged. Having exhausted his ammunition, he returned through the enemy fire to obtain more ammunition and grenades and charged the hill once more. Calling on others to follow him, he assaulted 2 more enemy bunkers. Although those who attempted to join him became casualties, Cpl. Rosser once again exhausted his ammunition, obtained a new supply, and returning to the hilltop a third time hurled grenades into the enemy positions. During this heroic action Cpl. Rosser single-handedly killed at least 13 of the enemy. After exhausting his ammunition he accompanied the withdrawing platoon, and though himself wounded, made several trips across open terrain still under enemy fire to help remove other men injured more seriously than himself. This outstanding soldier's courageous and selfless devotion to duty is worthy of emulation by all men. He has contributed magnificently to the high traditions of the military service."
This man's a savage.
I seem to have dropped my jaw on the floor.
America is free because of his sacrifices. We live under the umbrella of the freedom this man and others like him gave us. Don't ever forget that, I won't and neither will my children. Thank you! God bless all who serve, fight and died for us.
Thank you for your service 🙏 I assume you're a Marine by your screen name. You are part of the reason why I have my rights and other Americans. Thank you again for your service 🫡
@patrickperez6743 Thank you. Means a lot.
Wish I had the chance to sit down and talk to my grandpa's about their experience in World War II they both died before I was old enough to understand the gravity of the situation they went through
"Hit" means either shot or shrapnel..."never even saw a doctor, just took care of it myself".....HOORAH
A real story teller he is isn't he?
B s story teller that’s for sure smh
hoooooraaaah!! once a marine always a fkn marine!!!
jarheads for life
What a great interview. This is what an American is made of , make no mistake this is us folks.
Amazing story. This man is a true example of the saying that hard times make hard men.....but wow....what a life.
Thank you sir for your brave service and our freedom. Thank you for sharing your story. Truly an American hero.
A fascinating man to listen to , great to hear history from a soldier who made it .
Thank you Sir, God bless you all....
Thank you A.V.C for your quality content
God bless you Ron
He was able to infiltrate enemy lines to the point they ran out of ammo and so did he and he would just beat them to death. He was a menance on the battlefield and to the enemies. What a true hero
Thank you, Sir, for your service! You are an amazing man!
Served in Iraq, 2004, thank you for your service, bro! That was a real war, up close and personal! Proud to be your brother- in-arms!
Don’t discredit yourself, both of your service is valued
I was hard to distinguish the enemy in Afghanistan and I am sure that it was the same in Iraq.
@@JohnDavis-yz9nq yes. That was my biggest cause of stress. I almost killed a civilian one day, who jumped out of a car and came running toward shouting in arabic. I raised my weapon and was about to fire, but my buddy knew some Arabic, and stopped me, and said he is only asking directions. So glad I didn't have his death on my conscience! Thank you for your service, bro!
@@JohnDavis-yz9nq Yeah bro, I feel you! I got you! War is not humane.
Shame on u for killing innocent iraqi civilians who had nothing to do with 9/11 to begin with. U were lied to by israel who controls the US president/ government! Netanyahu told bush iraq had weapons of mass destruction just so they can eliminate him for israel.
Thank you
Thank you Ron! RIP
I definitely wouldn't want him pissed off at me !
What a powerful story. 👍🇺🇸
He'd kill you just for fun
My grandfather was a marine pilot during Korea. Man never spoke a word of it. Didn't know he was a Marine until he died. I knew he loved planes tho. Had a whole aviation library.
How is it remotely possible that you or your family didn't know your grandfather was a marine aviator in korea??>> That is nuts
This guys deserves his own movie!
Think you, Mr. Rosser for your service and being a true American hero. God bless you, sir.
My father who died last year, fought in Korea and his unit was surrounded by the Chinese for 5 days. God bless this brave man and ALL of those who served our Nation in the Forgotten War! Vietnam vets talk about no recognition, and that was true. But Korean veterans got even less !! That is why it was called the Forgotten War !
In all fairness, most of the recognition the Vietnam boys got was unwanted. I'm sure they would rather have received none at all. But it is sad how little is known about the Korean war by younger generations today
As someone said before me, “You can’t be traumatized when “YOU” are the trauma!” that was a great comment.
Amazing warrior truly. Wow
We were so blessed by this generation of brave men doing what they had to do.

This man went from a paratrooper to a forward observer! I worked with a lot of forward observers. One of my good friends was an observer in the marines. To this day, forward observers have been my favorite soldier. I love those guys.
Basically this guy played COD multi-player in real life and never lost one game 😮
he was the mc of the campaign you mean
What a Warrior, in all essence of the word. Big Salute 🫡 to this man, and my unwavering thanks always 🙏🏻 god bless them all
7:06 so unbelievably respectful. Living legend
Amazing story. Thank You
You are one Brave human thank you sir
I sure like this hero soldier. Did his job as he was trained to do and never stopped doing it until his job will be over someday. Thank you for your service to America.
Rare to hear anything other than humble murmuring from living MoH guys... I'm not sure what to think of his account here
It was a pleasure to listen to this man ?what a pleasure I could listen to him all night
"I made up my mind I was gonna kill a lot of people...which I did" HAH!
lame
Wow! Amazing bravery and personal fortitude!
People seem to forget this conflict...along with the men that suffered thru it.
Thank you for your service sir.
What a total badass, holy crap God bless America.
Thank You Sir !
SFC ROSSER..... YOU ARE AN AWESOME LEADER!!!!! MANY THANKS FOR ALL YOU HAVE DONE FOR US ALL 💋💘💋💘💋
Thank you for your service sir
He said, “In fact, when things would get real hot, I’d start to laughing. I never was afraid of those people.”
I believe this is one of the first times I’ve seen a soldier make the claim that they weren’t afraid in the heat of the battle where I truly believed them. What a true to life badass! Thank you for your service, Sir!!
This dude is a BADASS and one of my new heroes. Hes amazing
One of the best interview ever this was the original Rambo
“LEGEND” is a great way to describe this man
B s is another one lol
You know, I've heard a hundred vets at this point say, "If you ever meet someone who claims they were never afraid during combat, they're a liar."
But when you take in this man's story and you look in his eyes, I'll be damned if anyone thinks this man has lied about a single thing.
One in a million chance of getting through that alive. After Hearing many stories of battle. It’s when you the soldier has already come to terms with the likelihood that your not getting out of this situation alive that the fearlessness gets them through it. Amazing could make a movie out of the battle he’s talking about him ending up being the main character. Hopefully someone with a brain looks into it cause I love a good legit war movie. And this story is perfect. Not leading with it off the get go but ending with it being the main story that unfolds. Sorry just thinking out loud
This man is the biggest liar, wake up and use common sense! Yah 1 man vs 35 chinese ppl only 3 ft away and they couldnt kill him? Yet they all ran away from him or got killed. Then he runs out of ammo and goes bk down the hill while everyone shooting at him but they all miss?? He comes bk and 1 vs 200 soldiers now and he wins?? Come on man use ur head! Some ppl have a habit of lying and making stories up. I knew someone who use to talk like this but was a coward
