This volume covers the period from the close of World War 2 to the present day. It gives information on the role of the US during the Cold War and the nuclear arms race, as well as the conflicts which arose from the post-war clash of ideologies - the Korean, Vietnam and Gulf Wars. Each volume examines its period by means of the following: military organizations and locations; chronological events of each conflict; biographies of prominent military, political and civilian personnel; accounts of individual battles and engagements, honours and awards; and a glossary of technical terms.
