I consult with the Naval History and Heritage Command and provided material to the Center for Military History as well as seventeen foreign countries. Hyperwar has 200 terabytes of files on WWII, a twenty-five year project to date. I have my Masters in History from Purdue.
Other than that and some more things, you're right, I got nothing.
The circumstance we are talking about is unprecedented in the history of modern US military, and the closest analogue would be with germany’s Wehrmacht under Hitler.
Not at all. The German officer corps followed the Prussian school, and an oath (like the one they swore to Hitler personally) was beyond sacred to them. I swore an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. There is a difference there.
BTW, look up "The Newburgh Conspiracy".
