Publisher's Synopsis

Once North Korean forces crossed the 38th parallel in 1950, the lives of many Americans were disrupted. This memoir begins with Richard Holmsten's transition from civilian to newly-wed soldier. It covers training in Fort Lewis, the voyage across the Pacific, and the early days of the conflict.
