  • This Index Lists the Army Units for Which Records Are Available at the Eisenhower Library
    DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER LIBRARY ABILENE, KANSAS U.S. ARMY: Unit Records, 1917-1950 Linear feet: 687 Approximate number of pages: 1,300,000 The U.S. Army Unit Records collection (formerly: U.S. Army, U.S. Forces, European Theater: Selected After Action Reports, 1941-45) primarily spans the period from 1917 to 1950, with the bulk of the material covering the World War II years (1942-45). The collection is comprised of organizational and operational records and miscellaneous historical material from the files of army units that served in World War II. The collection was originally in the custody of the World War II Records Division (now the Modern Military Records Branch), National Archives and Records Service. The material was withdrawn from their holdings in 1960 and sent to the Kansas City Federal Records Center for shipment to the Eisenhower Library. The records were received by the Library from the Kansas City Records Center on June 1, 1962. Most of the collection contained formerly classified material that was bulk-declassified on June 29, 1973, under declassification project number 735035. General restrictions on the use of records in the National Archives still apply. The collection consists primarily of material from infantry, airborne, cavalry, armor, artillery, engineer, and tank destroyer units; roughly half of the collection consists of material from infantry units, division through company levels. Although the collection contains material from over 2,000 units, with each unit forming a separate series, every army unit that served in World War II is not represented. Approximately seventy-five percent of the documents are from units in the European Theater of Operations, about twenty percent from the Pacific theater, and about five percent from units that served in the western hemisphere during World War II.

  • Instances of Use of United States Armed Forces Abroad, 1798-2010
    Instances of Use of United States Armed Forces Abroad, 1798-2010 Richard F. Grimmett Specialist in International Security March 10, 2011 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R41677 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Instances of Use of United States Armed Forces Abroad, 1798-2010 Summary This report lists hundreds of instances in which the United States has used its armed forces abroad in situations of military conflict or potential conflict or for other than normal peacetime purposes. It was compiled in part from various older lists and is intended primarily to provide a rough survey of past U.S. military ventures abroad, without reference to the magnitude of the given instance noted. The listing often contains references, especially from 1980 forward, to continuing military deployments especially U.S. military participation in multinational operations associated with NATO or the United Nations. Most of these post-1980 instances are summaries based on Presidential reports to Congress related to the War Powers Resolution. A comprehensive commentary regarding any of the instances listed is not undertaken here. The instances differ greatly in number of forces, purpose, extent of hostilities, and legal authorization. Eleven times in its history the U.S. has formally declared war against foreign nations. These eleven U.S. war declarations encompassed five separate wars: the war with Great Britain declared in 1812; the war with Mexico declared in 1846; the war with Spain declared in 1898; the First World War, during which the U.S. declared war with Germany and with Austria- Hungary during 1917; and World War II, during which the U.S.

  • The Korean War Veteran Battle of Kapyong Memorialized by 6.5 Ton
    The Korean War Veteran Internet journal for the world’s Veterans of the Korean War January 28, 2019 Battle of Kapyong memorialized by 6.5 ton Kapyong Stone, shipped to Langley, British Columbia by Gapyeong County community Two veterans who fought in the Battle of Kapyong in April, 1951 joined with Canada’s Senator Yonah Martin in Langley, British Columbia, when a 6.5 ton boulder from Kapyong, Korea was dedicated as a lasting memorial to the Canadians who served in that battle. They are (left) Ted Adye, Senator Martin, John Bishop, and John’s wife, Judy Bishop. Kapyong (now spelled Gapyeong) is a very small city some 60 miles north by northwest out of Seoul. In April, 1951 the 27th Commonwealth Brigade blocked the advance units of two Chinese Divisions which were bent on reaching the crossroads at scenic Chungchong. From there it would be a rush down the unpaved highway to Seoul, at least in theory. U.S. reserve forces, included massive artillery and fighter bombers that had complete air mastery could have decimated the units on open ground. Yet many of the rear force units, including logistical bases, would have to be rolled back from the field of battle. To reach the Canadian, Australian, British, New Zealand and American defenders of the Kapyong River Valley the Chinese units in the spring offensive had marched 40 miles. This after savage battles with Republic of Korea units. They had outpaced their supply source, were fatigued and had no artillery support to conclude the drive. But their infantry were many and vastly outnumbered the 2nd Battalion, Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry (PPCLI), which held blocking positions on the west side of the Kapyong River valley, and the 3rd Battalion, the Royal Australian Regiment (RAR), which held key hills on the eastern side.

This conflict has been categorized as a "police action", not a war, therefore little has been published by the Chief of Military History, Department of the Army or by individuals. However, the material available to our historian is believed to be of such importance as to justify its publication in this volume of our official history. While Washington National Guard units did not actually serve in Korea during this "police action", our Air National Guard and certain artillery units were inducted into service to replace like regular air and army units withdrawn for service in Korea. However, many Washington men participated in the action as did the 2nd and 3rd Infantry Divisions, both of which had been stationed at Fort Lewis and other Washington military installations.
