Abstract:

Scholarly debate about the reasons for Korea’s division at the 38th parallel in August 1945 has not been particularly intense. Early historical accounts accepted the u.s. government’s claim that the United States and the Soviet Union made a hasty decision to partition the country as a matter of military convenience to coordinate the acceptance of the surrender of Japanese forces at the end of World War ii. By the early 1980s, however, new research had established that President Harry S. Truman planned to occupy all of Korea after using the atomic bomb, which was designed to force Japan’s surre

Abstract:

To create and maintain a navigable entrance for small craft between the Pacific Ocean and the natural lagoon now referred to as Bodega Harbor, the construction of two rubble-mound jetties and the associated dredging of interior channels were authorized by the United States Congress in the late 1930s. The jetties were built by the United States Army Corps of Engineers in the early 1940s. Elements of the planning, design, construction, monitoring, and maintenance of the jetties are discussed herein.

Abstract:

The Battle of Okinawa was the last major ground battle of World War ii. The Tenth u.s. Army that invaded this small piece of Japan was a unique force composed of units from the u.s. Army and others from the u.s. Marine Corps. Much historical literature has focused on the different approaches to ground combat of the two armed services, but they also employed very different policies towards support of the news media. The u.s. Marines were much more supportive than the u.s. Army. The two different policies and styles of news coverage that reporters employed led to coverage favoring the u.s. Marin

The authors study the military potential of the Japanese Empire and its changes during the Pacific War in order to understand the role of the Pacific Theater of Operations in World War II. In this regard, the authors basing on the losses suffered by Japan on various fronts define the role of the USSR in the defeat of militaristic Japan. They argue that the contribution of the USSR to the victory of the Anti-Hitler coalition in Asia consists mainly in shackling significant forces of the Japanese army in Manchuria and Korea until the end of the summer of 1945, which did not allow the Japanese mi

Abstract:

Historians John W. Dower, Craig Cameron, and Ronald Takaki argue that the Pacific War was a war of extermination fueled by race hate. Therefore, the clash between the military forces of the Japanese Empire and United States of America yielded a "kill or be killed" environment across the battlefields of the Pacific. This work examines the conduct of the Second Marine Division during its campaign of conquest against the Japanese held island of Saipan from June 15, 1944-July 9, 1944. It is based upon traditional military history sources to test their theories in context of the conduct of Marin

Abstract:

In the eyes of the American public excellence is often overshadowed by brilliance of personality. This is particularly true in the portrayal of many of the country's military leaders in World War II. A prime example of this phenomenon is Douglas MacArthur, whose larger than life persona made him a newspaper fixture during the war despite a series of strategic and tactical blunders that would have led to the sacking of a less visible (and publicly popular) leader. At the level of divisional commanders, this triumph of brilliance over excellence is best exemplified by the two primary leaders of

Abstract:

In 1943 five junior officers in the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve made their way to Boulder, Colorado, to join a course at the US Navy Japanese Language School. The US Navy had turned its attention to Japanese language training before the outbreak of war, largely thanks to the efforts of two intelligence officers who had grown up in Japan. While the US Army began training Japanese Americans, the US Navy Japanese Language School did not accept Japanese Americans as students but did use them as teachers. Most of the five RNVR officers already had extensive naval experience, including combat on the high seas, but they finished their 18-month course too late to be able to play much of a part in the war, unlike their American fellow students, who saw action in the Pacific.

Abstract:

Almond relinquished command of the 92nd Division and assumed command of the 2nd Infantry Division at Camp Swift, Texas, for the planned Japanese invasion. The end of the war in the Pacific, changed that, and Almond went to Japan to work on the staff of Gen. Douglas MacArthur. He found success as a staff officer and trusted agent to one of the Army’s most powerful and legendary officers. Basking in the light of MacArthur’s favor, he tried to put the shame he felt over the 92nd Division’s collapse behind him. The Army had begun to change, however, taking its first small steps toward desegregation and universal service. The Army was, in effect, divided between those soldiers in the States and those on occupation duty, especially those in Far East Command. That separation became all too evident when war came to Korea.

Abstract:

The attempt of United States government personnel in postwar China to effect an end to the resumption of the civil war by offering military training and support to both sides foundered on the assumptions of both the Nationalists and Communists that each would be victorious in the conflict. Nonetheless an American military training mission was authorized. The American goal was to establish a democratic, economically viable nation with a modern military to offset the expansion of Soviet influence in Asia.The goals of the Nationalist government did not necessarily align with those of the United States, although support and aid were continuously sought. However, the Nationalist political and organizationalstructure was difficult to adapt to American models even when the Chinese saw an advantage in doing so. For reasons explored in this chapter, the mission failed.

Abstract:

The Pacific War was particularly difficult for the media to cover. The long distances, the terrible weather, the tendency of Douglas MacArthur and Ernest King to prioritize operational security, especially during the defeats of 1941 and 1942, and media bosses in the United States who focused more on Europe than Asia all meant that the fighting in the Pacific was often shrouded from the American public. The situation did not start to improve until 1943 and 1944, as US forces took the offensive, and the army and navy engaged in a dynamic rivalry to grab the biggest share of the headlines. But while the war continued in Europe, even major battles like those fought on Saipan and Okinawa were often buried on the inside pages.

Abstract:

As World War II approached, the mobility of Japanese immigrant fishers gave rise to ever more strident allegations of smuggling and spying in both Canada and the US. Along the Alaska coast, reported intrusions into US waters by Japanese fishing vessels were depicted as the vanguard of a coming invasion. The growing pressure Japan brought to bear along the North Pacific coast, reflected in ongoing disputes over oceangoing fisheries and the pelagic sealing industry, combined with Japan’s resentment of the race-based exclusion and unequal treatment of Japanese immigrants by both the United States and Canada, heightened tensions among all three nations. Canada and the United States forcibly removed people of Japanese ancestry from the Pacific coast and interned or incarcerated them during World War II. Alaska Natives with a Japanese forebear were among those forcibly uprooted. Chapter 5 also addresses the forced relocation of the Aleut by the US government, as well as that of the Aleut taken prisoner by the Japanese Imperial Army during the Aleutian campaign and taken to Japan. Japanese Canadians were forced to choose between moving east or being repatriated or expatriated to Japan and were not permitted to return to the B.C. coast until 1949.

Abstract:

This chapter provides an overview of the second German war. It highlights how Britain found itself with an army in readiness of just five under-equipped infantry divisions. Despite the Armistice, Britain—and its empire's largest navy in the world, the largest air force, and the most efficient army—had insufficient tanks to deploy even one armoured division and respond to the war. The level of expenditure on armaments in the last years of the war was unsustainable and increasingly reliant on loans from the United States. The chapter discusses the British political and military leadership of Britain amidst the season of war in 1939.

Abstract:

This chapter focuses on the establishment by the Signal Corps of the Army Command and Administrative Network (ACAN) in the Pacific Theater where unique challenges of distance, climate, and terrain faced the Army’s communicators.Initially a manually operated system, ACAN eventually adopted automatic radioteletype equipment that enabled faster and more accurate transmission of the rapidly growing message workload.ACAN made possible significant innovations, such as teleconferencing, that enabled Allied leaders to communicate with their commanders thousands of miles away. By war’s end, the system was carrying fifty million words per day over its circuits—an estimated eight words for every bullet fired.With the return to peace, the United States Government decided to dismantle ACAN.Not until the war in Vietnam would the Army operate another globe-spanning system, this time using the latest satellite technology to bridge the distance between Washington and the fighting front.

Abstract:

This chapter explores how three war correspondents—Iris Carpenter, Lee Carson, and Ann Stringer—outmaneuvered rapidly shifting battlelines and military regulations to become part of an elite group attached to the “Fighting First” Division of the United States Army in the European Theater of Operations. Despite military policies preventing female war correspondents from covering the front, all three women—Carpenter for the Boston Globe, Carson for International News Service, and Stringer for United Press—used their reporting skills, and the military connections these skills earned them, to find and break news so often that by March 1945 their bylines appeared regularly beneath front-page headlines, often internationally syndicated. In 1946, Carpenter, Carson, and Stringer received theater medals from the United States War Department for “outstanding and conspicuous service with the armed forces under difficult and hazardous combat conditions.”

Abstract:

Winfield Scott Featherston's Brigade of William W. Loring's Division, in Alexander p. Stewart's Army of Mississippi, attacked to the left of Hardee. Opposing Featherston was William T. Ward's division of the Twentieth Corps. Because of Hooker's lackadaisical attitude, Ward was not yet in position on the high ground south of Peach Tree Creek. Taken by surprise, Ward's brigade commanders reacted quickly and led their men in a desperate counter charge up the steep bluffs bordering the south side of the creek, met Featherston's men part way up, and pushed them all the way up the slope. The result was an impressive victory for the men of Ward's division. They established and fortified their line on top of the bluff in line with Newton's division to the left and Geary's division to the right. It is true that Ward's three brigades heavily outnumbered Featherston's lone brigade. Moreover, about one-third (820 out of 1,230) of Featherston's men merely stopped on top of the bluff and failed to move down the slope to engage the 4,000 Federals in Ward's three brigades which were led by John Coburn, Benjamin Harrison (a future president of the United States), and James Wood, Jr.

Interservice rivalry between the United States Army and Navy over the 1946 Bikini Atoll atomic bomb tests was an example of a larger rivalry over roles, missions, and budgets that was endemic to U.S. defense policy immediately after World War II.The tests became embroiled in this larger conflict because of the perception that they could be employed by either service to argue its case for the lion’s share of resources in the postwar world.Therefore, each service went to great lengths to try to assure the press and public that the tests were not “rigged.”What is most interesting, however, about the atomic bomb tests of Operation Crossroads was the fact that the test results were so inconclusive.

Water flow in dams is commonly regulated using Tainter or miter gates, which are extensively employed in the navigation network of locks and dams managed by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). Tainter gates are well known for their effectiveness in managing the flow of water through dam spillways. Post-tensioned Tainter gate anchorages are widely utilized in numerous dams across the nation, particularly within the Mississippi Valley Division (MVD), the Great Lakes and Rivers Division (LRD), the Southwestern Division (SWD), and the Northwestern Division (NWD). Between 2010 and 20

Abstract:

Until recently, Operation Ivory Soap, a secret World War II collaboration between the United States Army, Navy, and Merchant Marines, to reconfigure six Liberty Ships into floating maintenance shops for repairing damaged aircraft in the Pacific, remained in obscurity. Sikorsky R-4B and R-6A helicopters were based on these ships to ferry mechanics and parts wherever needed. This secret project proceeded as planned until an emergency request for medical evacuation of wounded soldiers came in June 1945. Until then, the newly-developed helicopter had rarely been used for aeromedical rescue and nev

Abstract The United States Army is in the process of developing the next generation of 155mm self propelled artillery through the Armament Systems Division of United Defense in Minneapolis, Minnesota. This next generation artillery system, called Crusader, is fully automated and can fire up to 10 rounds a minute at distances in excess of 40 km. The weapon system employs a new Modular Artillery Charge System (MACS). MACS consists of a low zone charge, the M231, and a high zone charge, the XM232. Both are rigid combustible cylinders filled with propellant and they are approximately 15 cm in diam
