PDF The Islamic Drama by Jamshid Malekpour in History

Description

The Korean War marked an important point in the development of Commonwealth defence co-operation. World War II had accelerated the loosening of such ties; and the immediate post-war period confirmed the process. Militarily the Commonwealth retained a capacity to interact effectively on the battlefield even when the political inclination was waning. This is a study of alliance relations; both between the national forces of the Commonwealth countries involved and between the Commonwealth armies and the Americans. It focuses on problems of command; administration; logistics; finance and manpower; as well as operations. It concentrates upon the co-operation; or otherwise; of forces in the field and the policies directly affecting them; in the belief that the military effectiveness of allied forces is the real test of success in coalition warfare.
