From 1950 to 1953, US troops faced significant changes in their appearance during the Korean War. This informative study, featuring exclusive artwork and never-before-seen photographs, explores the evolution of their uniforms and gear throughout the conflict. As an expert on the period's military attire, author Robert C. Mackowiak explains and illustrates the soldiers' adaptation to new technologies and harsh conditions. With the introduction of flak jackets and customizable gear, the troops were able to lighten their load and improve their effectiveness in combat. This 48-page softcover offers a comprehensive look at the impact of improvisation, shortages, and the changing nature of the war on the appearance of US ground forces.
