Further Notes on the North Sea Mine Squadron Decoration North Sea Mine Squadron Decorations FURTHER NOTES ON THE NORTH SEA MINE SQUADRON DECORATION GEORGE MENEGAUX The advertisement illustrated is from the October 1942 issue of "T.N.T." This magazine was later NORTH SEA called "North Sea Mine Barrage." The latest copy which I possess is MINE SQUADRON from the late 1950’s, so it is not known whether it is still in exis- DECORATIONS tence. As can be seen, the medal was struck by Bailey, Banks & Biddle Co. The silver medal in my col- lection has "B.B.&B." struck on the rim at 6:00 o’clock. There was also a lapel button vailable in 14 karat gold. I hope that this information will shed some light on this somewhat elusive medal.

Organized in 1878, it provided an opportunity for one of the first joint endeavors of military officers from both northern and southern States following the Civil War. Many of the senior officers of the National Guard of the several States had been in action against each other during that bitter conflict. The first President of the NGAUS was Major General George W. Wingate of New York (who later organized the National Rifle Association to promote marksmanship). General Win- gate. served as a Union officer in the war. The first Vice Presi- dent was a southern officer, the Adjutant General of Louisiana, Major General (General, CSA) Pierre G. T. Beauregard. The NGAUS was in existence for 72 years before it established a decoration for distinguished service. In 1950, the Executive Council of the NGAUS established its Distinguished Service Medal to provide recognition for any individual who, while serving in the military forces (active or reserve) of this nation or its allies, in a position of great responsibility, distinguished him- self by outstanding and exceptionally meritorious service to the United States government, the Armed Forces of the United States, or to the National Guard Association of the United States. The NGAUS Distinguished Service Medal is 32 mm. in diameter. Its obverse bears the raised seal of the NGAUS. The medal is suspen- ded by a scarlet silk moire ribbon 40 mm. long and 36 mm. wide, which is attached to a 38 mm. wide bar inscribed "DISTINGUISHED SERVICE." The medal and the bar are gold. The reverse of the medal is plain, but is inscribed prior to presentation with the recipient’s name, date of presentation, and medal number. The award is accompanied by a miniature, which replicates the medal. However, only the medal number is inscribed on the reverse of the miniature. One hundred and fifty-seven NGAUS Distinguished Service Medals have been awarded over the past 32 years. Medal number one was conferred on the long-time Adjutant General of Maryland, and for- mer President of NGAUS, Major General Milton A. Reckord. The most recent award was medal number 157, presented to General Charles A. Gabriel, Chief of Staff of the U.S. Air Force. Although by nature of the award it is usually conferred on those of high rank who have had opportunities to assume great responsibilities and demon- strate outstanding service, it is not limited to senior officers. Medal number 134 went to Army National Guard Chief Warrant Officer- 4 Leonard T. Tallas, of Texas, and medal number 145 went to Cap- tain Robert B. James of the Ohio Army National Guard. The highest ranking recipient is General of the Army Douglas MacArthur, medal number 55. Foreign recipients include Major General Herluf Nygard, Commander, Norwegian Home Guard, medal number 112; and Major Ber- nard Marmaduke Fitzalan-Howard, the Duke of Norfolk, KG, PC, GCVO, CBE, medal number 76. 32 The nominations for this award are made by members of the NGAUS Executive Council, officers of the Association, and members of the Association Awards Committee. All nominations are reviewed by the Awards Committee, and must be approved by majority vote of the NGAUS Executive Council. There is no minimum or maximum number of awards that must be made each year. Although the NGAUS Distinguished Service Medal or its ribbon is often seen on the uniforms of National Guardsmen when they are participating in NGAUS functions~ the award is not authorized for uniform wear by military personnel serving in active Federal status.

Blazich Jr., PhD Naval History and Heritage Command Introduction This document is intended to provide readers with a chronological progression of the activities of the United States Navy and its involvement with World War I as an outside observer, active participant, and victor engaged in the war’s lingering effects in the postwar period. The document is not a comprehensive timeline of every action, policy decision, or ship movement. What is provided is a glimpse into how the 20th century’s first global conflict influenced the Navy and its evolution throughout the conflict and the immediate aftermath. The source base is predominately composed of the published records of the Navy and the primary materials gathered under the supervision of Captain Dudley Knox in the Historical Section in the Office of Naval Records and Library. A thorough chronology remains to be written on the Navy’s actions in regard to World War I. The nationality of all vessels, unless otherwise listed, is the United States.

  • U-Boat Campaign (World War I) 1 U-Boat Campaign (World War I)
    U-boat Campaign (World War I) 1 U-boat Campaign (World War I) The U-boat Campaign from 1914 to 1918 was the World War I naval campaign fought by German U-boats against the trade routes of the Entente Powers. It took place largely in the seas around the British Isles and in the Mediterranean. The German Empire relied on imports for food and domestic food production (especially fertilizer) and the United Kingdom relied heavily on imports to feed its population, and both required raw materials to supply their war industry; the powers aimed, therefore, to blockade one another. The British had the Royal Navy which was superior in numbers and could operate on most of the world's oceans because of the British Empire, whereas the German Kaiserliche Marine surface fleet was mainly restricted to the German Bight, and used commerce raiders and unrestricted submarine warfare to operate elsewhere. The successful blockade of Germany contributed to its military defeat in 1918, and, still in effect, enforced the signing of the Treaty of Versailles in mid-1919. 1914: Initial campaign North Sea: Initial stage In August 1914, a flotilla of ten U-boats sailed from their base in Heligoland to attack Royal Navy warships in the North Sea in the first submarine war patrol in history.[1] Their aim was to sink capital ships of the British Grand Fleet, and so reduce the Grand Fleet's numerical superiority over the German High Seas Fleet. The first sortie was not a success. Only one attack was carried out, when U-15 fired a torpedo (which missed) at HMS Monarch.

To: Advocates for Harvard ROTC Subject: World War I - Harvard alumni veterans Medal of Honor Legion d’Honneur Distinguished Service Order Distinguished Service Cross Navy Cross The President, in the name of Congress, awards the Medal of Honor to the individual who, while as an active member of the US Armed Forces distinguishes himself or herself conspicuously, at the risk of his or her life above and beyond the call of duty, by courage and intrepidity. The act or acts of heroism must have required a risk of life and the individual have displayed personal bravery or self-sacrifice so extraordinary as to set the individual apart from his or her comrades. The 2nd highest US military decorations for valor have a different name and date of origination by service. For the US Army, this award is called the Distinguished Service Cross and was established by the US congress in 1918. The equivalent award for the Navy and US Marine Corps is the Navy Cross, which was first awarded in 1917 and formally approved by the US congress in 1931 (note: the Navy Cross may also be awarded to deserving US Coast Guard personnel during a formal war when the USCG is operating as part of the USN). The Air Force Cross was established by the US congress in 1960 (note: previously deserving personnel in the US Army Aero Squadrons of the Signal Corps (WW I), US Army Air Corps (1920’s to 1947) or US Air Force (1947 to 1960) were awarded the Distinguished Service Cross).
