Military Specification MIL-DTL-11589 Ribbons
Illustrated Guide United States Military Specification MIL-DTL-11589 Ribbons by Steven G. Haskin Current as of March 11, 2018 Illustrated Guide – United States Military Specification MIL-DTL-11589 Ribbons This guide is designed to illustrate the ribbons found in The Institute of Heraldry's Military (TIOH) MIL-DTL-11589 ribbon specifications to assist researchers, collectors, historians and those with a general interest in United States ribbons. Since the specifications change over time, the document is dated so the user can determine if they have the latest information. The source document is MIL-DLT-11589F, Ribbon, Awards, General Specification For and its associated specification sheets. These are commonly referred to as "slash" sheets because of the forward slash in the specification sheet number. Each sheet is award specific and listed numerically in MIL-DTL-11589F, Sup 1 which is the supplement to the general specification. For example; MIL-DTL-11589/1G is Ribbon, Commendation, U.S. Air Force. When first published, the initial specification sheet will not have a suffix letter. The first revision would be MIL-DTL-11589/1A and each successive change will be identified by the next letter. The letters "I" and "O" are not used due to possible confusion with 1 and 0 (zero). Suffixes are not used in this guide to ease the task of updates. Each specification sheet is designed to provide ribbon manufacturers the necessary information to ensure uniform quality, color, and dimensions irrespective of the manufacturer. Not all United States ribbons are included in the slash sheets. Either the governmental agency did not use TIOH to design or develop their award or because the ribbon is described in a different specification sheet, drawing or other document. -

Jacob Brown as depicted3 in an engraving published in 1862 4 1 INITIAL SUPPORT Daniel T. Tompkins, New York’s governor since 1807, and Peter B. Porter, the U.S. Congressman, first elected in 1808 to represent western New York, were leading advocates of a war of conquest against the British over Canada. Tompkins was particularly interested in recruiting and training a state militia and opening and equipping state arsenals in preparation for such a war. Normally, militiamen were obligated only for three months of duty during the War of 1812, although if the President requested, the period could be extended to a maximum of six months. When the militia was called into service by the governor or his officers, it was paid by the state. When called by the President or an officer of the U.S. Army, it was paid by the U.S. Treasury. In 1808, the United States Congress took the first steps toward federalizing state militias by appropriating $200,000 – a hopelessly inadequate sum – to arm and train citizen soldiers needed to supplement the nation’s tiny standing army. -

It was during this period that U.S. Army policy required that African Americans serve in separate military units from white soldiers.

Korean War Forgotten - No More
MAY 27, 2019 KOREAN WAR FORGOTTEN - NO MORE MEN OF BURLINGTON COUNTY, NJ WHO WERE CASUALTIES IN THE 1 The Cover is of the Korean War Veterans Memorial (19 stainless steel statues). The statues were sculpted by Frank Gaylord of Barre, VT and cast by Tallix Foundries of Beacon, NY. They are approximately seven feet tall and represent an ethnic cross section of America. The advance party has 14 Army, 3 Marine, 1 Navy and 1 Air Force members. The statues stand in patches of Juniper bushes and are separated by polished granite strips, which give a semblance of order and symbolize the rice paddies of Korea. The troops wear ponchos covering their weapons and equipment. The ponchos seem to blow in the cold winds of Korea. NOTES This booklet was prepared on behalf of the Burlington County War Memorial Committee. It is interrelated to the Korean War Monument that was dedicated May 27, 2019. The men contained herein are those, from Burlington County, New Jersey, that are listed on the National Archives web site. https://www.archives.gov/files/research/military/korean-war/casualty-lists/nj-alpha.pdf The lists are based on the "home of record - state" data provided by the serviceman or woman upon last entrance into military service. "Home of record" does not necessarily refer to the place of birth, residence of next of kin, place of longest residence, nor other common uses of the term "hometown."

A Soldier and His Many Hats: The volutE ion of American Military Headgear Abstract Military headgear is a fascinating topic. It exists on a spectrum from the gaudy to the protective, but how did headgear evolve with the military? Interestingly, changes from the decorative to the practical can be examined through this blog’s favorite topic, the 1800s and the American Civil War. By tracing key changes in American military headgear in the 1800s, ideas about the nature of war, as well as how the United States was distancing itself from Europe, become clear. -

Report on the History of Matthew P. Deady and Frederick S. Dunn
Report on the History of Matthew P. Deady and Frederick S. Dunn By David Alan Johnson Professor, Portland State University former Managing Editor (1997-2014), Pacific Historical Review Quintard Taylor Emeritus Professor and Scott and Dorothy Bullitt Professor of American History. University of Washington Marsha Weisiger Julie and Rocky Dixon Chair of U.S. Western History, University of Oregon In the 2015-16 academic year, students and faculty called for renaming Deady Hall and Dunn Hall, due to the association of Matthew P. Deady and Frederick S. Dunn with the infamous history of race relations in Oregon in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. President Michael Schill initially appointed a committee of administrators, faculty, and students to develop criteria for evaluating whether either of the names should be stripped from campus buildings. Once the criteria were established, President Schill assembled a panel of three historians to research the history of Deady and Dunn to guide his decision-making. The committee consists of David Alan Johnson, the foremost authority on the history of the Oregon Constitutional Convention and author of Founding the Far West: California, Oregon, Nevada, 1840-1890 (1992); Quintard Taylor, the leading historian of African Americans in the U.S. West and author of several books, including In Search of the Racial Frontier: African Americans in the American West, 1528-1990 (1998); and Marsha Weisiger, author of several books, including Dreaming of Sheep in Navajo Country (2009). Other historians have written about Matthew Deady and Frederick Dunn; although we were familiar with them, we began our work looking at the primary sources—that is, the historical record produced by Deady, Dunn, and their contemporaries.
