Description du livre Soft cover. Etat : New. No Jacket. On June 25, 1950, nearly 7 divisions of elite North Korean troops, many of whom had fought for the Communist side in the Chinese Civil War, crossed the border into South Korea, with the intention of conquering the entire South in 3 weeks. Some 6 months earlier, Secretary of State Dean Acheson, in a colossal gaffe, had neglected to include South Korea in Americs's Asian defense perimeter, and the only American forces then in the country, part of a tiny advisory mission, were almost completely unprepared for the attack. In the early weeks of the invasion, the Communist offensive was a stunning success. Every bit of news from the battlefield was negative. The Korean War would last 3 years, not 3 weeks, and it would be the most bitter kind of war, in which relatively small American and United Nations forces worked to neutralize the superior numbers of their adversaries by the use of vastly superior hardware and technology. It was a War fought on strikingly harsh terrain and often in ghastly weather, most particularly a numbing winter cold that often seemed to American troops an even greater enemy than the North Koreans and Chinese. The Americans who fought in Korea often felt cut off from their countrymen, their sacrifices unappreciated, their faraway War of little importance in the eyes of contemporaries. This vast disconnect between those who fought and the people at home, the sense that no matter the bravery they showed, or the validity of their cause, the soldiers of Korea had been granted a kind of second-class status compared to that of the men who had fought in previous wars, led to a great deal of quiet--and enduring--bitterness. Contains a Glossary of Military Terms and a List of Maps. N° de réf. du vendeur 806
