December 1944. Marshall reorganized and mobilized the military during WWII by
coordinating training, planning for rearmament, supplying Great Britain with
important material and finally directing the war. As Truman's Secretary of
State (1947-1949), after succeeding in getting Congress to send aid to Greece
and Turkey, he fostered the European Recovery Program (called the Marshall
Plan) to promote postwar economic recovery in Europe. He was awarded the
1953 Nobel Peace Prize for the Marshall Plan. Fine
