This volume records briefly, by text and photograph, the Korean conflict from January 1951 to the cessation of hostilities in July 1953.  Like its predecessor, Korea 1950, it attempts to provide an accurate outline of events in order to show the U.S. Army veteran of the Korean conflict how the part he played was related to the larger plans and operations of the United Nations forces.  For this reason Korea 1951-1953 focuses on the operations of the United States Army but summarizes the achievements of the sister services and of the other United Nations troops in order to make clear the contributions of all to the successful resistance against army aggression.

NOTE: NO FURTHER DISCOUNT FOR THIS PRINT PRODUCT--OVESTOCK SALE -- Significantly reduced list price while supplies last An Unknown Future and a Doubtful Present: Writing the Victory Plan of 1941 covers the work of then Maj. Albert C. Wedemeyer, the principal author of the Victory Plan. In just forty-eight months America raised and equipped a modern army seemingly overnight, a feat that owed much to sound military planning. As Wedemeyer makes clear, mobilization transcends purely military matters and must be understood to embrace the capacity of nations. His work underscores the fact that even in 1941 warfare had become so vast in scope, so expensive, and so technologically complex that nations could never again afford to maintain in time of peace the armies needed in time of war. The conclusion seems inescapable: The United States Army must keep mobilization planning at the center of all its military planning. Military planners and all those studying mobilization and logistics will benefit from processes Wedemeyer and his colleagues used in reaching their decisions on the units and material needed. The Victory Plan provides a clear picture of how they approached the challenge of preparing for modern war. This text includes photographs, footnotes, a bibliography, and an index. This book may appeal to military leaders, active duty soldiers, strategic analysts, and students researching the reform of military operations and future military planning priorities for War and Politics courses as part of American Government, Social Studies, or History high school credit requirements, or military science, political science courses or leadership course certificates.
