Rebecca Liscum, a journalist and living descendant of Col. Emerson Liscum, speaks to an audience of 4th Battalion, 9th Infantry Regiment "Manchus," 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, veterans, Soldiers, friends and family about her research into the life and character of the former Manchu commander during the unveiling of the ornate puch bowl bearing his name at the Fort Carson Museum April 25, 2018. Liscum was killed at the Battle of Tientsin during the Boxer Rebellion in China in 1900. When the Chinese government presented the regiment with more than 90 pounds of silver bullion as a token of thanks, the unit had the bowl fashioned out of the silver and named in honor of the late colonel.
