25 nov 1950 - Truman's limited war and MacArthur's insubordination

Description:

Chinese soldiers attack on this date and greatly push back UN troops. MacArthur favored an invasion of China, but Truman wanted a limited war (not as much bloodshed, fought to achieve specific goals). MacArthur was enraged by this idea and sent a letter attacking president's policies. As a result he was fired later for insubordination by Pres. Truman.
