Abstract:
Late 1946 was a time of anticlimax in the history of Sino-American relations. For four years since the outbreak of the Pacific War, thousands of American servicemen had been in China rubbing shoulders with the Chinese. When victory finally came, more United States troops (mainly the marines of the Third Amphibious Corps) poured in, and the Chinese hailed them as heroes. In less than a year, however, as hostilities between the Kuomintang (KMT) and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) closed in, the Americans were caught in the crossfire. Along the communication lines in North China, armed clashes

Abstract:
ABSTRACTAlthough the American Civil War is perhaps the most written about event in American history, the issue of desertion has often retained a neglected position in the conflict's dense historiography. Those historians who have studied military absenteeism during the war have tended to emphasize socio-economic factors as motivating men to leave the army and return home. The Register of Confederate Deserters, a list of southern soldiers who crossed into Union lines and took an oath of loyalty in order to try and return home, can provide a different look at these men.

The article examines the distribution of burdens from Russia’s participation in the First World War. During this period, dissatisfaction with the balance between those who went to the front and those who remained in the rear could be expressed openly. By 1917, the human reserves of the Russian empire were practically exhausted. At the same time, a large part of the population enjoyed deferrals from serving in the army. After the revolution, servicemen, many of whom had already been on the front line and were wounded, were very active. They demanded that soldiers who served in rear units should

Abstract:
This paper examines the profound disillusionment with soldiering, caused by sheer physical hardship and psychological trauma, experienced by New Jersey servicemen during the Civil War. While not unique to New Jersey soldiers, ample sources are cited in the footnotes examining this phenomenon endured by soldiers from other states. The paper is also placed in a larger historiographic debate, spearheaded by military historian Gerald F. Linderman, surrounding soldiers‟ motivations regarding enlistment and the more varied and complex reasons for remaining in the ranks. Such motivations encompassed

Abstract:
This essay examines the influence of the social purity movement on the U.S. government's campaign to protect servicemen from the temptations of drink and illicit sex during World War I. This influence had been forged in the context of U.S. imperialism in the two decades prior to American entry into the war, as purity reformers linked the sexual morality and temperance of soldiers serving in occupied territories overseas to racial purity and national character at home. War Department policymakers who were allied with the purity movement likewise understood male moral restraint and sexual self-c

À la Libération, vu les pénuries et les restrictions, le troc, entre civils et militaires américains, s’organise tout naturellement. Mais, les produits de l’U.S. Army font rapidement l’objet de trafics, essentiellement basés sur un échange monétaire. En Seine-et-Oise, au cours des premiers mois de liberté, ce phénomène économique enregistre un développement au processus rapide, favorisé par l’installation de troupes et d’infrastructures américaines ainsi que par le désenchantement de la Libération. En 1945, vu le contexte militaire, économique et social, l’expansion des trafics est fulgurante.

Abstract:
This dissertation challenges the idea that the United States “home front” in World War II escaped the violence and disorder visited upon overseas cities by military forces. It examines American “liberty ports”— from San Francisco and Los Angeles to New York and Boston— where millions of GIs and other Allied servicemen took leave and liberty. Emboldened by the privilege of their uniforms and near immunity from civilian laws and authorities, these troops caroused, fought with locals, rioted in the streets, and assaulted women. A near constant presence in many large ports and transportation hubs,

Abstract:
This chapter centers upon the US military in Korea between 1945 and 1953. While Koreans experienced war violence firsthand, American and international audiences grew increasingly aware of and concerned about the devastation wrought by the US military as the war raged on. It was in this context that US military officials actively paired US servicemen with Korean orphans to help narrate the unpopular war. This chapter demonstrates how the American soldier was transformed from the bringer of bombs to the rescuer of children. Using US military records, army chaplain logs, Department of Defense raw footage, newsreels, photographs from popular US magazines, as well as US and Korean newspapers, this chapter traces how violent soldiers were transformed into caring fathers. Mandated by the US military and perpetuated through media, these relationships helped to recoup the losses of war and deflect international accusations of US imperialism, while drawing Americans together with Koreans in intimate ways. The chapter closes with a look at the symbolic purposes of these actions, goals made clear by military officials who blocked Korean houseboys from living in the barracks and stopped servicemen from formally adopting Korean children, intimacies that exceeded the intentions of these rescue narratives.

This chapter focuses on Snoopy, the character who was one of the more surprising critics of the American approach to the Vietnam War. In particular, Snoopy’s imaginary conflict as the World War I flying ace fighting the Red Baron became a unique commentary on the impact of war on the American homefront. The character also became a popular symbol among American servicemen, both to register their dedication to the fight and their frustrations with the war itself. For his part, Schulz mapped a path of support for troops, but disdain for the unpopular war and especially for the continuance of the draft.

Abstract:
The First World War witnessed an unprecedented scale of amputation. Traditionally, it has been argued that design and innovation were a direct result of the numbers of prostheses required to re-embody the many thousands of amputees from the war. This chapter argues that innovations in artificial limbs were well-established in the nineteenth century. Furthermore, there were a number of reputable companies that maintained a good trade in artificial limbs. The surgical profession and the commercial arena, while aware of each other, operated separately in two spheres. The First World War physically narrowed this division, relocating the limb fitter and the surgeon in close proximity in specialist hospitals established for amputees. Many manufacturers, including some from overseas, were required to provide the amputee servicemen with limbs, yet the relationship between the two professions was not improved. Nevertheless, the specialist hospitals staffed with experts in surgical technique and artificial limb fitting benefitted a number of patients. Focusing on Queen Mary Roehampton Hospital, this chapter explores the relationship between physical spaces and professionals, and the impact that it has on medical care in the First World War.

Abstract:
Chapter 1 addresses sexuality and prostitution as key elements in the emergence of postwar Japanese nationalism. It tackles the imaginary encounter of occupier and occupied in the post-surrender period before the actual arrival of the occupation forces, analyzing Japan’s authorities’ conceptualization to build a “female floodwall.” The second half of the chapter deals with the first physical encounter between occupiers and the occupied, in which nationalistic fears and desires imagined prior to the occupiers’ arrival were resurrected. It assembles accounts of sexual violence, in particular the rape and molestation of Japanese women by American and Allied servicemen, which Japan’s authorities heavily exploited and integrated into narratives of the victimizing of defeated Japan by vengeful occupiers.

Abstract:
Lucas Morel’s “‘In a Strange Country’: The Challenge of American Inclusion” interprets Ellison’s 1944 short story as a civics lesson for a republic struggling with the legacy of race. The story follows a black Merchant Marine, Mr. Parker, during World War II as he recovers from a mugging by white American servicemen while on shore leave in Wales. Ellison presents a lesson of civic inclusion by showcasing a “black Yank” being rescued by Welshmen. Parker witnesses how his Welsh hosts transcend class conflict through a common devotion to music, which he likened to the racially mixed “jam sessions” back in America. Herein Ellison articulates the obstacles and pathways to black American citizenship—a reminder that “the land of the free” requires one not only to be “brave” in the face of majority tyranny, but also good-humored, self-disciplined, and hopeful as one seeks full participation in the American regime.

Abstract:
This chapter examines how anxieties around race and sexuality during World War I produced overlapping projects of black masculine perfectibility and restraint within the U.S. military’s campaigns against venereal disease (VD) at home and in France. The belief that African American troops were members of a “venereal race” led efforts by white army doctors to enact novel and conventional modes of control in their efforts to discipline the bodies and desires of Black servicemen stationed overseas. While some of these doctors claimed the experimental regulation of Black male sexuality through the use of prophylaxis as a technocratic success, Black leaders touted the “clean” body of the African American soldier as a matter of masculine will rather than medicine. As subjects of these contradictory and competing discourses, Black troops in France developed a new consciousness of race and sexuality abroad. Through a consideration of stigmatized sexual practices, the sexual economy of French brothels, and the movement of African American military bands in France, this chapter shows how African American soldiers renegotiated meanings of race and nation in their travels outside of the United States.

Abstract:
This chapter glances outward again to show how the postwar internationalization of the BSA worked hand in hand with its militarization. This correlation manifested itself most clearly in the rising presence of U.S. servicemen and their families on the outer frontiers of the Cold War. Starting in the early 1950s, Boy Scout troops sprang up on every major military base in Western Europe and East Asia, giving boys the opportunity to enact both the goodwill and resolve of U.S. intervention. Still, the ideals of a military masculinity and of young ambassadors projecting amity and democracy did not go together easily. Not only did frequent redeployment and the self-contained nature of U.S. military communities hamper intercultural exchange; the celebrated practice of American Scouts earning their badges on the “frontiers of freedom” also bred paternalistic attitudes towards local allies.
