To the Yalu
A few minutes after midnight on Saturday, October 14, 1950, President Truman left Hickam Field, Hawaii on the final, 2300-mile leg of his flight to a remote island in the Pacific. There he would indeed discuss with MacArthur the "final phase of United Nations action in Korea." Instead of being an end, however, the conference would really mark the beginning of a series of events that would result in one of history's greatest examples of human fallibility, bring the United Nations Command to the brink of destruction, and poise the world on the edge of a general war in which the opposing sides both possessed nuclear weapons. - Author to reader.
