Editorial Review Product Description Army Chief of Staff George C. Marshall's Pentagon office was the nerve center for United States ground and air forces during World War II. This fourth volume of The Papers of George Catlett Marshall covers the nineteen months that constituted the heart of American participation in the war, a period during which Marshall was operating at the peak of his abilities as a politician, strategist, and coordinator. Marshall was undoubtedly disappointed in late 1943 not to be chosen Supreme Allied Commander in Europe -- a job that would have been granted to him had he demanded it. But many people, including President Roosevelt, considered him too important to America's war effort and to the alliance to move him out of Washington, D.C. As the documents in this volume demonstrate, Marshall directed great energy at maintaining and strengthening the crucial Anglo-American alliance through his participation in the great wartime decision-making conferences at Quebec, Cairo, and Teheran, and through his perseverance over strategic direction. This volume also reveals Marshall's efforts to maintain the alliances of army and navy services, ground and air forces, regular and reserve components, home front and combat theaters, military and civilian, and Pentagon and Congress. Army personnel increased to eight million by the end of these nineteen months, and Marshall moved vigorously to complete the creation, training, and transportation of combat units. He continually faced problems of logistics and shipping, research and development, finding exceptionally able leaders, and supplying support personnel. All the while, Marshall was planning for the postwar military by advocating Universal Military Training and a unified Department of Defense. "You are doing a grand job," he told General Eisenhower at the end of 1944, "go on and give them hell." The same might have been said of Marshall himself. |

Editorial Review Product Description The war against Japan seemed far from over, however, and Marshall was deeply involved inplanning for the massive and difficult redeployment of troops and materials from Europe to thePacific. The debate with the U.S. Navy over supreme command of the invasion of Japancontinued through the first six months of the year until Marshall secured Douglas A. MacArthur'sappointment. In May and June, the chief of staff was involved in the decision to use the newatom bomb. Military-related political problems continued to consume much of Marshall's time as the SecondWorld War drew to a close, although he was only peripherally involved in the Big Threeconferences at Yalta and Potsdam. Instead, demobilization and readying U.S. Army ground andair forces for the postwar era were Marshall's chief concerns. He pressed for a unified militarydepartment against navy opposition and also lobbied incessantly for universal military trainingfor all physically fit eighteen-year-old males as the key element in the nation's military readinessand deterrent value. After the fighting ceased, Marshall expected to retire, having served on active duty since 1902,but President Truman kept him in office until late November 1945. The day after his retirement,the president asked him to go to China to mediate in that country's increasingly violent civil war.Despite his initial success in negotiating a cease-fire between the Nationalists and Communists,irreconcilable differences soon led to renewed fighting. Marshall's continued hopes for achievinga political compromise, along with knowledge that his mission was the only hope for avoiding adisaster in China, kept him in the country until early 1947. He returned to the United States onlywhen the president announced that General Marshall would join his cabinet as secretary ofstate.From The Papers of George Catlett Marshall "The one great element in continuing the success of an offensive is maintaining the momentum.This was lost last fall when shortages caused by the limitation of port facilities made itimpossible for us to get sufficient supplies to the armies to continue their sweep into Germanywhen they approached the German border. Once additional ports had been captured and reopenedthere was a shortage of rail and transportation facilities with which to get supplies forward. Nowthe port facilities and the interior supply lines are adequate. Subject to the worldwide shortage ofboth cargo and personnel shipping, there is no foreseeable shortage which will be imposed byphysical events in the field."—Speech to the Overseas Press Club, March 1, 1945 "Today we celebrate a great victory, a day of solemn thanksgiving. My admiration and gratitudego first to those who have fallen, and to the men of the American armies of the air and groundwhose complete devotion to duty and indomitable courage have overcome the enemy and everyconceivable obstacle in achieving this historic victory."—Marshall V-E Day Radio Address, May8, 1945 "Just a few months ago the world was completely convinced of the strength and courage of theUnited States. Now they see us falling back into our familiar peacetime habits. They witness thetremendous enthusiasm with which we mount demobilization and reconversion, but they see asyet no concrete evidence that we are determined to hold what we have won--permanently. Are wealready at this early date inviting that same international disrespect that prevailed before thiswar? Are we throwing away today what a million Americans died or were mutilated to achieve?Are we already shirking the responsibility of the victory?"—Speech to the New York HeraldTribune Forum, October 29, 1945 |
