Into the Breach at Pusan: The 1st Provisional Marine Brigade in the Korean War: Campaigns and Commanders, cartea 31
Autor Kenneth W. Estesen Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 apr 2012
Drawing on combat records, command reports, and biographical materials, Estes describes the mobilization, organization, and operations of First Brigade during the first three months of American participation in the Korean War. Focusing on the battalions, companies, and platoons that faced the hardened soldiers of the North Korean army, he brings the reader directly to the battlefield. The story he reveals there, woven with the voices of soldiers and officers, is one of cooperation rather than interservice rivalry. At the same time, he clarifies differences in the organizational cultures of the U.S. Army and the Marine Corps.
Into the Breach at Pusan is scrupulously fair to both the army and the marines. Estes sets the record straight in crediting the Eighth Army with saving itself during the Pusan Perimeter campaign, but he also affirms that the army s suffering would have been much greater without the crucial, timely performance of the First Provisional Marine Brigade.
