Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The modern US Army has its roots in the Continental Army, which was formed in 1775 during the American Revolutionary War. Forged in the crucible of the fight for independence, the US Army has always guaranteed Americas autonomy and territorial integrity, and represented American interests overseas. The Army came of age during the Civil War, when the Union Army was able to defeat the highly-experienced Confederates; in 1917 the US sent hundreds of thousands of troops to fight on the Western Front; while in World War II the Army proved its expertise and valour during the Normandy Landings, the Battle of the Bulge, the campaign in Italy, and at Guadalcanal. During the Cold War, the Army stood as a bulwark against communist aggression and defender of the free world, with troops stationed from Korea to Germany to Panama, and every point in between. The Army is a colorful guide to Americas leading military arm, a half-million-strong force with a glorious history that continues to play a key role in US defense and overseas operations today. The book includes photographs from the Civil War up to the present, with a particular focus on recruitment, weaponry, and modern training methods, as well as soldiers on tour during the recent conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq. Highly illustrated with more than 200 photographs, The Army is a colorful celebration of Americas primary fighting force.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. African American leaders such as Frederick Douglass long advocated military service as an avenue to equal citizenship for black Americans. Yet segregation in the U.S. armed forces did not officially end until President Harry Truman issued an executive order in 1948. What followed, at home and in the field, is the subject of Brotherhood in Combat, the first full-length, interdisciplinary study of the integration of the American military during the Korean and Vietnam Wars. Using a wealth of oral histories from black and white soldiers and marines who served in one or both conflicts, Jeremy P. Maxwell explores racial tension - pervasive in rear units, but relatively rare on the front lines. His work reveals that in initially proving their worth to their white brethren on the battlefield, African Americans changed the prevailing attitudes of those ranking officials who could bring about changes in policy. Brotherhood in Combat also illustrates the schism over attitudes toward civil-military relations that developed between blacks who had entered the service prior to Vietnam and those who were drafted and thus brought revolutionary ideas from the continental United States to the war zone. More important, Maxwell demonstrates how even at the height of civil rights unrest at home, black and white soldiers found a sense of brotherhood in the jungles of Vietnam. Incorporating military, diplomatic, social, racial, and ethnic topics and perspectives, Brotherhood in Combat presents a remarkably thorough and finely textured account of integration as it was experienced and understood in mid-twentieth-century America.
