[QUOTE="Robert High Hawk, post: 1107476, member: 12429"] Puerto Ricans do contribute in outsized proportions to the US military, as far as I know. In Korea in particular they were heavily volunteered, and the Puerto Rican 65th Regiment covered the retreat of the Marines from the Chosin Resevior. That particular Regiment earned fully half of all the distinguished service crosses for the entire division during the Korean war for their actions covering the Marines retreat. In Korea they participated (and had more casualties) proportionally more than many US states. [/QUOTE]
