Stillwell, nicknamed "Vinegar Joe," was sent to China to shore up the U.S. ally, Chian Kai-shek. Among the men he took with him was his aide, Lt. Colonel Frank Dorn. At Stilwell's request, Dorn kept a record of the daily events of this time and this record initially served as the basis for Stilwell's official report to Washington D.C. after the collapse of the Burma front. This account gives a portrait of Stilwell and his mission.
