HIST 1463 - Military Hist/Second World War

Institution:

Barton County Community College

Subject:

Description:

This course presents the military history of World War II. As background for the war, this course will first examine the political, diplomatic, economic, and military events from 1919 to 1941 that led to war in both the Pacific and European Theaters. The course will then concentrate on the military, naval, and air campaigns and battles from 1941 to 1945. This portion of the course will cover the major campaigns and battles in all the major theaters of the war. The campaign/battle studies will not consist merely of an examination of the events of each campaign/battle. The studies will also examine the political, diplomatic, economic, and strategic context in which they occurred. Thus, the campaign/battle studies will address the events that precipitated each campaign/battle; the strategy, tactics, and leadership of the belligerents; and the result of the battle on the outcome of the war.
