Contact seller5-star sellerWraps. Condition: good. Presumed first printing thus. vii, [1], 94, [2] pages. Wraps. Illustrations. Bibliography. Covers has some, erasures, wear and soiling. This publication includes the report of the Secretary of Defense's Advisory Committee on Prisoners of War. The Code of the U.S. Fighting Force is a code of conduct that i…s an ethics guide and a United States Department of Defense directive consisting of six articles to members of the United States Armed Forces, addressing how they should act in combat when they must evade capture, resist while a prisoner or escape from the enemy. It is considered an important part of U.S. military doctrine and tradition, but is not formal military law in the manner of the Uniform Code of Military Justice or public international law, such as the Geneva Conventions. The contents include a Letter of Transmittal, Background, A Brief Look at History, The American Fighting Man and Korea, A Code of Conduct for the Future, Korean Summary, The Road Ahead for America and the Armed Forces and an Addenda. During the Korean War in the early 1950s, Chinese and North Korean forces captured American military personnel as prisoners of war. Unlike America's previous wars, these American prisoners then faced a deadly new enemy, the Eastern World's POW environment. It was the first American war that U.S. prisoners of war were viewed by an enemy as more than soldiers from the other side temporarily restrained from conducting war and whose desire to control the minds of U.S. prisoners extended the war into the POW camps. North Korean and Chinese communists were not hesitant to use brutal and bloody torture as gruesome tools in their efforts to exploit U.S. prisoners of war into making public statements that appeared favorable to the communist war effort. For the American prisoners brutal torture, lack of food, absence of medical aid, and subhuman treatment became a daily way of life and many of them found that their training had not prepared them for this new battlefield.

Contact seller5-star sellerPamphlet. Condition: Good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. The format is approximately 5 inches by 7 inches. 40 pages, including covers. Illustrations (color). Cover has some wear and soiling. Covers the Uniforms of Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Greece, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Turkey, United… Kingdom, and the United States. Presents images of battle dress, shoulder straps, cap badges, gold braid, collar insignia, rank insignia, Officers, Warrant Officers, noncommissioned officers, and other ranks, gold leaf, hat band, cap strap, and other features. A military uniform is a standardized dress worn by members of the armed forces and paramilitaries of various nations. Military dress and styles have gone through significant changes over the centuries, from colorful and elaborate, ornamented clothing until the 19th century, to utilitarian camouflage uniforms for field and battle purposes from World War I (1914-1918) on. Military uniforms in the form of standardized and distinctive dress, intended for identification and display, are typically a sign of organized military forces equipped by a central authority. Military uniforms differ not only according to military units but tend to also be offered in different levels of formality in accordance with Western dress codes: full dress uniform for formal wear, mess dress uniform for semi-formal wear, service dress uniform for informal wear, and combat uniform (also called "battle/field dress") which would equal casual wear. Sometimes added to the casual wear category is physical training uniforms. A distinction should be made between uniforms and ethnic dress. If a particular people or culture favored a distinctive dress style this could easily create the impression of uniformly dressed warriors. The issue is further complicated by the distinctive features (weapons, armor, fighting style and native dress) of particularly effective warrior classes often being copied. Thus the distinctive and colorful clothing of the Hungarian hussars became a model for hussar units all over Europe. The kilts and sporrans of Scottish Highland clans were distilled into regimental dress when the British Army started to recruit from these tribal groups. Mercenary or irregular fighters could also develop their own fashions, which set them apart from civilians, but were not really uniforms. The clothing of the German Landsknechte of the 16th century is an example of distinctive military fashion. Special units such as Zouaves developed non-standard uniforms to distinguish them from troops of the line.
