Between those hills flowed the Imjin river below. The winters were cold enough to freeze the river, and to Canadians a frozen ice surface is always an irresistible attraction to play the national winter sport. Reacting to requests, and considered a necessary morale booster, hockey equipment from Canada was flown to Korea and then trucked to the front lines. Immediately the ice was cleared while sandbags and bits of wood were set up to define the rink boundaries. Right away the regiments organised teams and began playing against each other. Matches were held with the sounds of war echoing between the hills as a backdrop to the sounds of cheers and jeers from spectating troops. Veterans later recalled that it gave them a couple of hours to forget about the war even if you could still clearly hear it.   \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e(radio-canada)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EmbassyProJerseys","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43413595062530,"sku":"","price":120.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0633\/8114\/3810\/products\/Screenshot2022-11-11130422.png?v=1668793446","url":"https:\/\/embassyprojerseys.ca\/products\/korea-imjin-vip-jersey","provider":"EmbassyProJerseys","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
