  • Aleutian World War II National Historic Area 2009 Calendar for It Is a Lonely Front—The Least-Known and Loneliest of All Our Far-Flung Fronts
    Aleutian World War II National Historic Area 2009 Calendar For it is a lonely front—the least-known and loneliest of all our far-flung fronts. These pilots are not fighting a glamorous war of blazing guns and gallant encounters in mid-air; they fight an unseen foe, and they fly and die alone. Their enemy is the weather. Their battlefield is a boulder-strewn beach scattered with tell-tale bits of twisted metal, or a snow-covered mountainside where the torn wing of a plane flaps emptily in the wind, or an icy strait into which a flaming bomber hisses into silence like an extinguished cigarette. They do not parachute to safety and a hero’s medal; they struggle for a few minutes in the numbing water until their ‘chute fills and drags them out of sight forever. Their citation reads, ‘Missing….’ Collier’s, March 27, 1943 The bombing of Dutch Harbor on June 3-4, 1942, just six months after the attack on Pearl Harbor, marked the beginning of the Aleutian Campaign. For 15 arduous months Allied airmen struggled to take the fight to the Japanese who were entrenched on Kiska and Attu in the western Aleutians. The American and Canadian military were forced to battle the weather as well as the enemy – and it was the weather that claimed more lives than the Japanese. With the Japanese driven from the Aleutians in August 1943, the stage was set for the US military to take the fight directly to enemy territory. The targets for the Empire Express missions were facilities on the islands of Paramushiro and Shimushu in the Kurile Islands of Japan and shipping.

  • Held up My Hand and Became a Sailor
    Lt William L. Maris, USN. (Ret) After graduating from HS in June 1938 and while still working part time as a “Deckhand” on the Guemes Island Ferry, that fall I went back to AHS in the spring and took a PG course in Business Math and typing. My Father and my Boss, decided it was time for me to get a real job (my Boss who had been a Chief Boatswain Mate in the Navy in WW-1), so off we went to the Navy Recruiting Office in Bellingham, WA. The Chief Petty Officer in Charge, asked Dad why he wanted me to join the Navy and Dad told the Chief there was no work in Anacortes and he was tired of feeding me so please sign me up! I was 20 years old the October 16th, 1939 and required my Fathers signature to Enlist. After getting the paper work done, four months on the waiting list, after we finally got a proper Birth Certificate with a “Gold Seal”, The Chief wouldn’t accept the Birth Certificates the State Statistics Office kept sending without the Seal on it. I ended up being 26 on the waiting list in the 13th Naval District. Around the first of December I received correspondence from the Naval Recruiting Office Seattle that I had been accepted and to report in to the Recruiting Office in the Federal Building in Seattle on 10 December 1939. After reporting in they logged me in and gave me a Voucher and sent me to the YMCA for dinner and berthing for the night and to report back to the Recruiting Officer at 0800 the next day.

  • The Coldest Front: Cold War Military Properties in Alaska Revised and Expanded ______
    1 United States Department of Defense Legacy Resource Management Program _________ The Coldest Front: Cold War Military Properties in Alaska Revised and Expanded _________ Prepared in Cooperation with the Alaska State Historic Preservation Officer February 1996, August 2012 Stewardship ● Leadership ● Partnership 2 Legacy The Legacy Resource Management Program was established by the Congress of the United States in 1991 to provide the Department of Defense with an opportunity to enhance the management of stewardship resources on over 25 million acres of land under DoD jurisdiction. Legacy allows DoD to determine how to better integrate the conservation of irreplaceable biological, cultural and geophysical resources with the dynamic requirements of military missions. To achieve this goal, DoD gives high priority to inventorying, protecting, and restoring biological, cultural and geophysical resources in a comprehensive, cost-effective manner, in partnership with federal, state and local agencies and private groups. Legacy activities help to ensure that DoD personnel better understand the need for protection and conservation of natural and cultural resources and that the management of these resources will be fully integrated with and support DoD mission activities and the public interest. Through the combined efforts of the DoD components, Legacy seeks to achieve its legislative purposes with cooperation, industry and creativity, to make the DoD the federal environmental leader. ________________________________________________________________________ This document was prepared in partnership with Alaska State Historic Preservation Officer Judith E.
