Thanks Don for the clarification. 

Wonder if you'd look in your reference book and tell me if there is a 
breakdown for the Marine non-battle casualties. How many deaths, injuries, 
disease, frostbite, etc. 
Stanton said there were over 3,200, but I notice in Col. Harry Summers book 
"Korean War Almanac" he sets the figure at over 7,300, and says they were 
mostly frostbite. perhaps Stanton did not include frostbite???
