Battle of Chosin Reservoir
長津湖戰役 is the Chinese title for the Battle of Chosin Reservoir.
Occasionally this is spelled Chosen. The pronunciation has led surviving Marines who fought there to call themselves “The Chosen Few” or “The Chosin Few.”
Even The 100-Foot Bamboo Can Grow One More Foot
百尺竿头更进一步 is a proverb that literally translates as: [Even a] one-hundred foot [tall] bamboo [can] progress even one [more] step.
Figuratively, this means: After having achieved a fair degree of success, one should try to do still better.
Old, But More Vigorous in Spirit
Age is just a number
老當益壯 is a Chinese proverb that means “old but vigorous” or “hale and hearty despite the years.”
Said of someone who is more spirited when he/she grows older.
The story behind this Chinese proverb:
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a man named Ma Yuan. He had been planning to herd animals on the frontier since he was young. When he grew up, Ma became a minor official of a county.
Once, he was sending some prisoners to another location. He felt pity for them, so he set them free, and then he fled to another county in the north. He herded animals there, and thus his dream came true. He always said: “If you want to be a great man, the poorer you are, the firmer in spirit you have to be; the older you are, the more spirited you should be.”
Later, when he was even older, Ma Yuan became a famous general of the Eastern Han Dynasty and contributed to many battles.
The More We Sweat in Training, The Less We Bleed in Battle
There is more than one way to translate the ancient Chinese military proverb, 平时多流汗战时少流血. Here are a few interpretations:
A drop of sweat spent in a drill is a drop of blood saved in war.
More practice will give one a better chance of success in real situations.
The more you sweat in training, the less you bleed in battle.
I heard this many times when I was a U.S. Marine but I had no idea at the time that it was actually an old Chinese proverb.

Time is more valuable than Jade
不贵尺之壁而重寸之阴 literally translates as: Treasure not a foot long [piece of] jade, [rather] treasure an inch of time.
Figuratively, this suggests that time is the most important/valuable thing in life.
