Bill. Keene shows how citizen-soldiers established standards of discipline that the army in a sense had to...

The United States Navy and the Vietnam Conflict: Volume I, The Setting of the Stage to 1959
ISBN: 9781780390062 / Angielski / Miękka / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

"The United States Navy and the Vietnam Conflict: Volume I, The Setting of the Stage to 1959", the first in a series, provides the needed historical background for the period up to 1959...
