Negotiated
Joint Command Relationships: Korean War Amphibious Operations, 1950
DONALD CHISHOLM
Issues include getting the right commander, with the relevant combat and amphibious experience, in the right place at the right time; and properly locating that place in the military hierarchy, assigning it responsibilities appropriate to the task at hand and discretion sufficient to the task.
