Qggs i The amphibious operation was the springboard from which the Armed Forces of the United States launched every maior invasion of enemy lands during World War ll. Amphib is a word with which veterans of the Korean conflict are familiar. Any future war involving this country would doubtless see this type of warfare again playing Q vifgl role.
