The battle portrayed in the painting was the last recorded battalion-sized bayonet attack by the U.S. Army. The painting by Dominic D'Andrea was done in 1992 and was commissioned by the National Guard Heritage Foundation. The assault began on Jan. 31 and took three days. On the morning of the third day, two battalions of the 65th Infantry Regiment fixed bayonets and charged straight at enemy positions. The Chinese fled. (Courtesy illustration)
