    Cover: During World War I, convoys carried almost two million men to Europe. In this 1920 oil painting “A Fast Convoy” by Burnell Poole, the destroyer USS Allen (DD-66) is shown escorting USS Leviathan (SP-1326). Throughout the course of the war, Leviathan transported more than 98,000 troops. Naval History and Heritage Command 1 United States Navy and World War I: 1914–1922 Frank A. 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.

MIDWAY ATOLL (June 4, 2007) - Commander, U.S. Pacific Fleet, Adm. Robert F. Willard, delivers his remarks during the 65th anniversary of the Battle of Midway commemoration ceremony on Midway Atoll. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 1st Class James E. Foehl) 2 The Jerseyman Battle of Midway Commemoration... MIDWAY ATOLL – Distinguished visitors and more than 1,500 guests of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, International Midway Memorial Foundation and the U.S. Pacific Fleet, assembled on Midway Atoll, June 4, to commemorate the 65th anni- versary of the Battle of Midway. “We‟re gathered here today at one of the most re- mote and special places on earth. Midway, is where the course of history was changed,” said the Honorable Linda Lingle, Governor of Hawaii. The Battle of Midway was fought June 4 – 7, 1942, and served as a turning point in the Pacific during World War II. “No one knew it at the time, but the tide of war in the Pacific had turned because of the heroism and sheer determination of those who fought on June 4, 1942,” said Dr. James M. D’Angelo, president and chairman, International Midway Memorial Foundation. “It‟s not hard to imagine what we would‟ve heard if we‟d have been here this day 65 years ago.

  • July Slater Signals
    SLATER SIGNALS The Newsletter of the USS SLATER's Volunteers By Timothy C. Rizzuto, Executive Director Destroyer Escort Historical Museum USS Slater DE-766 PO Box 1926 Albany, NY 12201-1926 Phone (518) 431-1943, Fax 432-1123 Vol. 18 No. 7, July 2015 It’s hard to believe that the summer is half over and I’m already writing the July SIGNALS. We had some very special visitors this month. First and foremost were Dale and Linda Drake. This was special because Linda is the daughter of the late Master Chief Gunner’s Mate Sam Saylor and, it’s safe to say, without Sam Saylor, there would be no USS SLATER preservation. Linda recalled that for years her visits were constantly interrupted with Sam's words, "Well, I take care of some SLATER business." It was the ship that was Sam's focus and sustained him through the last 20 years of his life. Linda and Dale made the trip from Omaha specifically to see USS SLATER because this was Linda’s first chance to see the fruit of all her father’s effort. Board President Tony Esposito greeted them as they toured the ship from stem to stern. Linda’s husband Dale is a former Marine, and he left Linda on the Observation Deck so he could take the bilge tour. He wanted to see everything. I do believe if we could get them to relocate to Albany we’d have two more dedicated volunteers. Linda brought along Sam's burial flag which we will fly for the month of August and then retire it to the USS CONNOLLY display in Sam’s honor.
