The imagined Alaska basically as a whole lot of land that is good for nothing. Although he got a good price in comparison, Alaska is huge and cost a lot of money. Just imagine what you think of the Arctic, then having the US pay one trillion dollars for it. Not great.

Based on eyewitness accounts describe America's readiness for the Korean War
GuDViN [60]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there is no context or specific reference, we can say that based on eyewitness accounts America' indeed was ready for the Korean War.

Let's have in mind that during these Cold War years, the United States and the Soviet Union lived tense moments, competing in the arms race, and later in the space race, and permanently in spreading Communism(in the case of the Soviet Union), and trying to stop it(in the case of the United States).

American and Korean troops landed at Inchon on September 15, 1950. Inchon was a key port in Korea. This allowed them, with the support of the troops sent by the United Nations, to capture the important city of Seul, the capital city of South Korea. After this great victory, General Douglass MacArthur reinstated the President of South Korea, Syngman Rhee.
