Combat Support in Korea: The United States Army in the Korean Conflict by John Glendower Westover is a comprehensive account of the role of the US Army's combat support units in the Korean War. The book covers the period from the initial North Korean invasion in June 1950 to the armistice in July 1953. Westover's book provides a detailed analysis of the challenges faced by the US Army's combat support units in Korea. These units included engineers, signal corps, transportation, medical, and other support services. The author examines how these units were organized, trained, and deployed to support the combat troops in the field. The book also covers the major battles and campaigns of the Korean War, including the Inchon landing, the Chosin Reservoir campaign, and the final offensive to the Yalu River. Westover provides a vivid account of the role of combat support units in these operations and the critical role they played in the success of the US Army in Korea. The author also examines the impact of the Korean War on the US Army's combat support doctrine and organization. He shows how the lessons learned in Korea influenced the development of combat support units in subsequent conflicts, such as Vietnam and the Gulf War. Overall, Combat Support in Korea is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Korean War or the development of combat support units in the US Army. The book is well-researched and provides a detailed and insightful analysis of the role of combat support units in one of America's most significant conflicts of the 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
