Summary: Discreet to the point of obscurantism.
Comment: Colonel Arnold's chronicle (with a Fifth Army patch oddly misidentified on the cover as that of the 473rd Inf. Reg. (sic)), is remarkable mostly for what it doesn't reveal. The author was G-3 (Plans and Operations Officer) for Division Commander Major General Edward M. "Ned: Almond, one of the most controversial officers of the American Army of World War II, and the man many consider responsible for the poor combat performance of the 92nd.
"Buffalo Soldiers" is useful for the detailed accounts of troop movements and Orders of Battle of the division and related units, but readers seeking a detailed analysis and evaluation of the division should see Shelby Stanton's excellent "Ten Corps in Korea", which organization also had racial difficulties and was commanded by: Ned Almond.

(The "score" rating is an ineradicable feature of the page. This reviewer does not "score" books.)
