1-999561 Lai, Benjamin 561 GROUND FORCES IN THE KOREAN WAR 1950-53 (2): The US Army and US Marine Corps Examines the evolving uniforms and personal equipment used by US ground forces in the Korean War. In June 1950, US soldiers and Marines deployed in the Korean War were dressed and equipped largely as they had been in the closing stages of World War II. By 1953, major innovations had transformed their appearance. Features eight pages of specially commissioned artwork alongside carefully chosen photographs, some never previously published, this study charts the evolution of the US troops' uniforms and gear through three years of bitter fighting. Details the uniform and equipment shortages that led to the need for cold-weather clothing. In 1951, the beginnings of position warfare offered the opportunity for soldiers and Marines to customize their uniforms and gear. Flak jackets were introduced in both services. The infantryman's basic load lightened substantially, with men on the line often requiring little more than their fatigues, flak vest, and helmet. All of these developments are explained and depicted. Contains eight color artwork plates; black & white photographs and illustrations.1 vol, 48 pgs 2025 UK, OSPREY PUBLISHING

2-226990 Turnbull, Stephen THE LOST SAMURAI: Japanese Mercenaries in South East Asia, 1593-1688 Reveals for almost 100 years, samurai were employed as mercenaries in the service of the kings of Siam, Cambodia, Burma, Spain, Portugal, and Dutch East India Company. They were used in dramatic assault parties, as royal bodyguards, as garrisons, and as willing executioners -- developing a stereotypical image of the fierce Japanese warrior that had a profound influence on the way they were regarded by their employers. While the Southeast Asian kings tended to employ samurai on a long-term basis as palace guards, Europeans usually hired them for specific campaigns. Also, whereas the Southeast Asian monarchs tended to trust their well-established units of Japanese mercenaries, the Europeans, whilst admiring them, also feared them and led to a great suspicion that the Japanese might one day turn against them.

1-248210 Smith, Steven THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR IN SOUTH CAROLINA: Profiles in Leadership An examination of the panorama of individuals whose leadership helped make the Patriot cause successful in South Carolina -- Henry Laurens was the President of the Council of Safety, Richard Furman was the pastor of a church, John Rutledge was the Governor of South Carolina, and Rebecca Motte was a plantation owner. William Moultrie and Andrew Pickens-perhaps most familiar as soldiers-are discussed in their non-combatant roles: Moultrie as a prisoner of war and Pickens as a post-war civic leader. Military leaders William Jasper, Thomas Sumter, Francis Marion, Isaac Shelby, Nathanael Greene, Daniel Morgan, Tadeusz Kosciuszko, Hezekiah Maham, and Henry Lee round out the selection of profiles. Each entry is preceded by a historical overview of the Southern Campaign and the Revolutionary War in South Carolina in order to provide the reader the background necessary to understand the leadership profiles in context. The book's conclusion highlights that the Revolutionary War was a landmark in the democratization of war, and that the choices made by these leaders and their followers reflect the same element of choice inherent in the democratic process.

The first day of the Battle of Gettysburg is often overshadowed by fighting on the following days, but July 1 was one of the bloodiest single engagements of the entire Civil War. Many of the decisions leading to and through Gettysburg's first day remain steeped in controversy. Did Meade intend to fight on the Pipe Creek line in Maryland until subordinates such as Major General John Reynolds forced the engagement at Gettysburg? Did the absence of J. E. B. Stuart's cavalry really leave Lee blind to his opponent's movements? Was Lee's desire to avoid a general engagement ignored by his own officers? With neither commanding general on the battlefield for much of the day, crucial decisions remained in the hands of subordinates such as John Buford, John Reynolds, A. P. Hill, Richard Ewell, and Oliver Howard. Contains over 120 photographs and illustrations.1 vol, 128 pgs 2025 US, CASEMATE

Explains how the annexation of German-speaking Sudetenland in 1938 and, subsequently, of Czechoslovakia itself delivered an unexpected bonus for the Panzerwaffe in the form of two Czech Army light tanks, introduced into German service as the PzKpfw 35(t) and PzKpfw 38(t). Covers the considerable operational service of these tanks in Poland, France and the invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941. From late 1941 onwards, they were withdrawn from front-line service, but the chassis were used until the end of the war for self-propelled artillery and tank destroyers.

1-248200 Winkler, David THE MIGHTY A: The Short Heroic Life of the USS Atlanta (CL-51), America's First Warship Commissioned After Pearl Harbor Comprehensive account of USS Atlanta covers her construction, commissioning, and full WWII service. Prior to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the U.S. Navy's leadership discovered that the surface fleet was highly vulnerable to air attack, thanks to the introduction of drone aircraft that could simulate attacks on its warships. The Navy's gunners simply did not have the coordinated firepower to knock them down. Recognition of this vulnerability resulted in a new class of warship led by USS Atlanta. The commanding officer, Captain Samuel Jenkins, had just weeks to ready a group of nearly 700 sailors-the majority having no seagoing experience-into a crew that could effectively fight the ship in combat. Joining the Pacific Fleet in time for the epic Battle of Midway, Atlanta's guns would fire the first salvos in the vicious Naval Battle of Guadalcanal early on November 13, 1942. Heavily damaged by gunfire and torpedoes, Atlanta would be scuttled later that day. Atlanta was awarded five battle stars for her World War II service and a Presidential Unit Citation for her fighting spirit in the Naval Battle of Guadalcanal.
