In reply to: Revised Eisenhower Topic 's message, "Mr. Davis" on Friday, February 08, 10:09:55am

Truman left Eisenhower in a very difficult situation when he left office. The confrontation in Korea looked like it could have drawn on for a very long time, Eisenhower, using in part nuclear threat, was able to effectively deescalate the situation, creating the still standing demilitarized zone around the 38th parallel. Yes, the Korean war was horrible, as is any war, but had it not been ended when it was, the war could be dragging on even now. President Eisenhower's action effected the US and the world for the long term.
