About This Item
(Subject: World War II - Pacific) The Saipan operation by the 2nd and 4th US Marine and 27th US Army Divisions. The amphibious assault having taken place, the 27th was lagging behind the Marine advance. The US Marine Corps Commander (Lt Gen "Howlin' Mad" Smith) relieved his subordinate, Maj Gen Ralph Smith, of command of the 27th. It was a conflict in command and gave rise to a media controversy opening up old arguments of the suitability of Marines vs Army for commanding large bodies of men. (Published: 1986) (Publisher: Presidio Press) (ISBN: 0891412425) (Pagination: 278pp, 12 photos, 6 maps.) (Condition: Mint. Storage wear only) UL-XXXXXX
