  • Statement from Merrill Newman Dated December 9, 2013 Over the Past
    Statement from Merrill Newman dated December 9, 2013 Over the past two days, I've been able to reunite with my wonderful family, rest, and try to recover from the difficult ordeal that began when I was prevented from leaving North Korea on October 26th. I can't begin to tell you how good it is to be home, to be free, and to begin to resume my normal home life. Let me repeat my thanks to the U.S. State Department for the amazing job they did in getting me out of North Korea and bringing me home safely. I want to thank Vice President Biden, who called me in Beijing to wish me well and even offered to give me a lift back to the United States on his plane. Thanks also to the Swedish Embassy in Pyongyang for their great work, especially their visit to me and their help in ensuring that I had the medicine I needed. Let me also express deep appreciation to friends, family, members of the First Congregational Church, wonderful people of faith and from all walks of life, residents and staff of our home at Channing House, and Members of Congress for their prayers, vigils, hard work, and moral support on my behalf. I want to single out Evans Revere for his extraordinary help. It wasn't until I got home on Saturday that I realized what a story I had become in the press here. During my detention I had no access to any outside news, and wondered whether anyone was even aware of my situation.

    MILITARY SEA SERVICES MUSEUM, INC. SEA SERVICES SCUTTLEBUTT June 2018 A message from the President Greetings, Summer arrived in Sebring. It has been very hot (high 80s, low 90s) the last couple of weeks. June also is start of the rainy and hurricane seasons in Florida and we have been receiving almost daily showers since late May. Hopefully our Northern members are enjoying cooler and drier air. So far this year we have had close to 600 visitors, hopefully headed for a record number of visitors for the year. Summer normally brings a decline in the number of visitors. This is a great time for visits from Scouts and other groups----can pretty much have the Museum to John Cecil themselves. Just let us know in advance when your group wants to visit (863) 385-0992 or [email protected]. We received many favorable comments on our Memorial Day observance. It was held in front of the Museum with attendees seated under a large tent. Towards the end of the observance, it began to rain and all attendees came inside the Museum where the observance was concluded. This also worked out well as we had a cake cutting ceremony planned inside to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Museum which opened its doors as the Military Sea Services Museum on Memorial Day 1998. See additional comments and photos elsewhere in this "Scuttlebutt." Photos were provided by Fred Carino, Cris Carino, Diana Borders and Donald Laylock. Have a great summer. Stay safe! John Military Sea Services Museum Hours of Operation 1402 Roseland Avenue, Sebring, Open: Wednesday through Saturday Florida, 33870 Phone: (863) 385-0992 Noon to 4:00 p.m.

  • Cold War Allies: Commonwealth and United States Naval Cooperation in Asian Waters Edward J
    Cold War Allies: Commonwealth and United States Naval Cooperation in Asian Waters Edward J. Marolda L’interaction entre les gouvernements canadiens, australiens, des États- Unis et du Royaume-Uni au cours de la guerre froide en Asie a été le plus souvent caractérisée par un désaccord sur les objectifs et la politique des États-Unis. Tel n’était pas le cas, cependant, avec l’expérience opérationnelle des marines de ces pays. En effet, les liens tissés entre les chefs des marines et des commandants de combat pendant les guerres de Corée et du Viêtnam ainsi que l’effort pour ramener la stabilité en Extrême-Orient, ont eu un impact positif sur la solidarité alliée et sur les mesures de sécurité collectives à la fin du 20ème et au 21ème siècles. Ce document traite de la nature de la relation opérationnelle entre les quatre marines dans la guerre de Corée; des actions navales américaines, britanniques et australiennes dans la gestion des conflits en Asie du Sud- Est au cours des années 50 et 60; l’expérience sous feu de la Marine royale australienne et la Marine américaine; et l’interaction vers la fin de la guerre froide pour faire face à la la présence et la montée en puissance de la marine soviétique dans les eaux asiatiques. The navies of the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand operated side by side with the navy of the United States throughout much of the Cold War in Asia. Despite often contentious policy disagreements between Washington and Commonwealth capitals, their navies functioned at high levels of coordination, interoperability, and efficiency.
