I enjoyed the scope of the text. It took reviewed not only the combat that encured during the war years, but also the things that let up to the war itself. Good read for those of us who served in Korea after the war was over.
Well, starts right in with the invasion on 6/25/50, no background. (OK, so there's an introduction). Lots of good guys and bad guys (you know the fat South Korean is going to be incompetant, the soldier that joined the army at 16 is going to be heroic, and at least one Chinese is wiley). It's not unsympathetic to the Chinese, they gave plenty of warning to us not to get too close to their borders (though kind of difficult to hear when you don't have diplomatic relations), and I guess Mao lost a son in a bombing raid.
