미육군 6･25전쟁 공식전사 서술의 특징과 한계— Ebb and Flow의 1951년 춘계전역 관련 내용을 중심으로 — = Some Questions about the Narrative of the U. S. Army’s Official History of the Korean War

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The U.S. Army’s Official History of the Korean War, United States Army in the Korean War series is a standard work on the military operations of the U. S. Army and its allies during the Korean War. This 4 volumes study has great prestige in the English speaking world. But these studies have some problems. One of the problems is that this work didn't pay enough attention to the operations of the Army of the Republic of Korea. Ebb and Flow, the work of Billy C. Mossman and the last book of this series, also have the same problem. In Mossman’s work, the South Korean Army is depicted as an inexperienced and incapable organization. Of course, this kind of narrative has enough historical basis. But during the Korean War, the South Korean Army carried out some successful military operations. So it is very unrighteous to only focus on the negative aspect of the South Korean Army. There is a need for more balanced works about the Korean War.
