Ready to Fire: Memoir of an American Artilleryman in the Korean War

 
Ready to Fire: Memoir of an American Artilleryman in the Korean War

Beschreibung

This memoir begins with the author's transition from civilian to newlywed soldier, training at Fort Lewis (Washington state), the voyage across the Pacific, and the readying of a Fire Direction Control Center for 105 howitzers near Kaesong. It covers the early days of the conflict, the problems faced as the unit retreated south of Seoul, and the efforts put forth as the unit struck north again. The major campaign covered is the crossing of the Han River in March 1951. In addition to the action, the daily happenings, hopes and fears of soldier life are detailed, including the often-contentious relationship of enlisted reserve to regular army. It concludes with his rotation back to civilian life.
