Dwight D. Eisenhower - People's Liberation Army began shelling the islands of Quemoy and Matsu
Time: Sep, 1954
Place: Quemoy and Matsu
Details: Eisenhower continued Truman's policy of recognizing the Republic of China (Taiwan) as the legitimate government of China, not the Peking (Beijing) regime. There were localized flare-ups when the People's Liberation Army began shelling the islands of Quemoy and Matsu in September 1954. Eisenhower received recommendations embracing every variation of response to the aggression of the Chinese communists. He thought it essential to have every possible option available to him as the crisis unfolded.
