Choose from one of the following three questions to demonstrate understanding of Section 7 of This Kind of War.

HAMMER: Korea was the first war where the US Army rotated Soldiers in and out of theatre in significant numbers, a practice that has continued ever since. In doing practical and instructional knowledge is lost and lessons have to be re-learned, sometimes at great cost. How would you change the manner in which we now rotate Soldiers into different conflicts across the globe? Are the benefits worth the cost, when our enemies remain in place and continue to learn? What are the pros and cons of each system?

S2: Dr. Sygnman Rhee pushed for complete unification by requesting: CCF must withdrawal; nK Communists must disarm; Soviet and Chinese assistance must stop, under UN guarantee; ROK participation in settlement; no settlement conflicting with ROK sovereignty. Essentially complete surrender. If Dr. Rhee had his conditions for peace approved, what UN capability existed to guarantee no Soviet and Chinese assistance in north Korea?

S3: What can we learn from this section on the theme of readiness? What examples of readiness were presented and what tertiary effects were seen from readiness or lack thereof?
