Book Description
Military blood bank experiences are reviewed, especially the highlights encountered in the period 1941-1971 during World War II, Korean and Vietnam campaigns. The activation, including staff study and growth of the Blood Transfusion Division and The Blood Bank Center of the US Army Medical Research Laboratory, Fort Knox, Kentucky, is used as an example of planning for large-scale blood banking in the military (operations, training, and research) and, consequently, civil disaster blood bank planning. Large-scale blood bank operations in being at Fort Knox are illustrated and described. The growth and rapid expansion at Fort Knox paralleled the Vietnam campaign in both timing and activity. (Modified author abstract).

The Korean War
Author: Stanley Sandler
Publisher: University Press of Kentucky
ISBN: 0813157218
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
The Korean War has been termed "The Forgotten War" or the "Unknown War." It is a conflict which never assumed the mythic character of the American Civil War or World War II. However, this book asserts, it would be impossible to understand the Cold War and indeed post 1945 global history without knowledge of the Korean War. Providing a history of the Korean peninsula before the war and including a detailed analysis of the fighting itself, The Korean War goes beyond the battlefield to deal with the war in the air, ground attack, and air evacuation. The study also evaluates the contributions of the UN naval forces, the impact of the war on various homefronts and issues such as defectors, opposition to the war, racial segregation and integration, POWs and the media. Recently-released Soviet documents are used to assess the role of China, the Soviet Union, North and South Korea and the allied forces in the conflict. This fascinating work offers a unique analysis of the Korean War and will be invaluable to students of twentieth-century history, particularly those concerned with American and Pacific history.
