It describes how the Army's involvement began with an expedition to seize Manila from Spain in 1898, which led to a protracted campaign against Philippine insurgents. When Japan attacked in 1941, the Army fought back as part of a joint and multinational team in some of the most far-reaching campaigns in history, after which the Army became responsible for post-conflict operations in Japan, Okinawa, South Korea, and the Philippines. During the Cold War, the Army fought hot wars in Korea and Vietnam. After the Vietnam War, the Army provided regional stability, a shield against aggression, and engagement with allies and partners as the region experienced unprecedented growth. This broad historical perspective reveals some enduring lessons: the vast distances and diversity of terrain and weather, the necessity for joint and multinational operations, and the need for a versatile, adaptive, and agile force"--Publisher's website. 000455703 61010 $$aUnited States.$$bArmy$$xHistory. 000455703 650_0 $$aMilitary art and science$$zPacific Ocean. 000455703 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xHistory, Military. 000455703 651_0 $$aPacific Ocean. 000455703 7102_ $$aCenter of Military History,$$epublisher. 000455703 77608 $$iOnline version:$$aMcNaughton, James C.$$tArmy in the Pacific$$w(OCoLC)828858485 000455703 830_0 $$aCMH pub ;$$v70-120-1. 000455703 85200 $$bgen$$hUA26.P16$$iM45$$i2012 000455703 85640 $$zOnline access$$uhttp://purl.fdlp.gov/GPO/gpo34505 000455703 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:455703$$pGLOBAL_SET 000455703 980__ $$aBIB 000455703 980__ $$aBOOK 000455703 983__ $$aOnline
