Focuses on the substantial role of US military advisors to the Republic of Korea Army (ROKA) from 1946 until 1953 in one of America’s early attempts at nation building. Gibby describes ROKA’s structure, mission, challenges, and successes, thereby linking the South Korean army and their US advisors to the traditional narrative of this ‘forgotten war’.

Bryan R. Gibby, a lieutenant colonel in the US Army, served in Iraq as the intelligence officer for the 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, and at the US Military Academy at West Point as an assistant professor in the Department of History. He has published on military history in Military Advising and Assistance: From Mercenaries to Privatization, 1815-2007 and the International Encyclopedia of Military History.
