    Retired Army Sgt. Maj. Elliott Sortillo is overcome with emotion and sheds tears after receiving a standing ovation from medical students and staff in the Anderson Hall amphitheater. The audience had just finished watching "Chosin" a documentary about the bloody battle at the Chosin Reservoir, Korea, during the Korean War. Sortillo was taken prisoner while fighting the Chinese in Korea just south of the Chosin Reservoir.
