RECORD GROUP 127 RECORDS OF THE UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS THE ELLS-DRAN FILING SYSTEM ARCHIVIST NOTE: The description of the ELLS-DRAN filing system included in this finding aid is an abridged and revised version of the text originally created by the Marine Corps. This original text addresses arcane variations of ELLS-DRAN that would be rarely encountered, and have therefore been omitted from this abridged/revised version. The complete text may be seen in Appendix 1 of the RG 127 Inventory No. 2 compiled by Maizie Johnson and published in 1970. The listing of ELLS-DRAN headings that follows this introductory text has also been revised to make the information more easily readable, and omits some erroneous cross-references and other information that would rarely be utilized. Information added to the ELLS-DRAN headings appears in [brackets]. For addenda mentioned in the body of ELLS-DRAN, see page Keep in mind that ELLS-DRAN is not an index to Marine Corps records. It was developed to provide guidance to Marine Corps personnel maintaining records as they were originally created, gathered and received. As such, the system was open to varying interpretation; therefore not every Marine Corps record series will contain records under every heading listed, and documents related to a particular subject filed in one series of records may have been filed differently in another series. The ELLS-DRAN system derives its name from first four letters of the surname of its creator (Captain Harry A. Ellsworth), and the acronym that comes from the phrase “Direct Reference, Alphabetical, Numerical.” The ELLS-DRAN system is subject based, with very broad or “Major” subjects appearing in alphabetic order. Each Major subject (or heading) is assigned a 4-digit numeric designation. Each Major subject are usually divided further into three subcategories (or subheadings), known (in descending order), as “Primary,” “Secondary,” and “Minor.” These subheadings never consist of more than 3 digits. As an example, the Major heading for Education is “1520.” Marine Corps schools are identified by the Primary heading “30,” which reads “1520-30.” The Marine Corps schools for officers are then identified by the Secondary heading “120,” which reads “1520-30-120.” The Marine Corps Basic School for officers is then identified by the Minor heading, “10,” or “1520-30-120-10.” This sequence is well illustrated in outline form: Major Subject 1520 Education Primary Subject 1520-30 Marine Corps Schools Secondary Subject 1520-30-120 Officers Minor Subject 1520-30-120-10 Basic School For the addendums mentioned in the main body of ELLS-DRAN below, see the Appendix, Page 64.

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.

Inouye Chairman, Subcommittee on Defense Committee on Appropriations United States Senate Dear Mr. Chairman: As you requested, we reviewed the Navy’s flying hour program to determine l what types of aviators are flying carrier-based aircraft, l the types and amounts of flying performed by such aviators, and . the relevancy of the flying to operations and training. We focused on the A-6, F-14, and F/A-18 carrier-based aircraft, although we also reviewed the flying hour program as it relates to other carrier-based aircraft. The information pertains to naval aviation prior to the commencement of Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm. While the concepts discussed in the report and the prior years data presented are still relevant, the fiscal year 1991 budget data do not reflect the commencement of the air war in January 1991. The Navy and Marine Corps need well-trained, highly skilled aviators to Background effectively and successfully accomplish their aviation missions. The skills demanded of an adept aviator include the ability to strike naval and land targets, protect ships from air threats, and take off from and land on aircraft carriers. An aviator’s primary means of gaining and maintaining proficiency is through hands-on training funded by the flying hour program.

  • United States Navy Hospital Corpsman

    United States Navy Hospital Corpsman

    HOSPITAL CORPSMAN “Health is necessary in war and cannot be replaced by anything else. Napoleon The primary mission of the Medical Department of the United States Navy, of which the Hospital Corps is a part, is s To keep as many men at as many guns as many days as possible As a member of the Hospital Corps you can contribute directly to the job of keeping our guns firing. There is no better way to serve your country and your fellow man. If you can qualify for admission to the Hospital Corps, the Navy will train you for your duties. Prepared for the Occupational information and Guidance Service, Vocational Division, U. S. OFFICE OF EDUCATION, Federal Security Agency, by the Hospital Corps Section, Bureau of Medicine and Surgery, UNITED STATES NAVY . December 1, 1943 INTRODUCTION From its very beginning as an established Corps in 1898 the Hospital Corps of the United States Navy has been devoted to humanitarian service. It has administered first aid and nursing care to the sick and injured of the Navy and Marine Corps during three of the Nation’s wars, and through the many years of intervening peace. For more than a century prior to its organization by act of Congress* the pioneers of the Hospital Corps—the Hospital Mates, the Hospital Stewards, the Surgeon’s Stewards, the Apothecaries, the Nurses and the Bay men—served faithfully and energetically in the Medical Department of the Navy. On numerous occasions of the past members of the Hospital Corps have been assigned to civilian areas for first-aid and relief work in times of disaster.

    Principal Fortifications of the United States (1870–1875)

    Principal Fortifications of the United States (1870–1875) uring the late 18th century and through much of the 19th century, army forts were constructed throughout the United States to defend the growing nation from a variety of threats, both perceived and real. Seventeen of these sites are depicted in a collection painted especially for Dthe U.S. Capitol by Seth Eastman. Born in 1808 in Brunswick, Maine, Eastman found expression for his artistic skills in a military career. After graduating from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, where offi­ cers-in-training were taught basic drawing and drafting techniques, Eastman was posted to forts in Wisconsin and Minnesota before returning to West Point as assistant teacher of drawing. Eastman also established himself as an accomplished landscape painter, and between 1836 and 1840, 17 of his oils were exhibited at the National Academy of Design in New York City. His election as an honorary member of the academy in 1838 further enhanced his status as an artist. Transferred to posts in Florida, Minnesota, and Texas in the 1840s, Eastman became interested in the Native Americans of these regions and made numerous sketches of the people and their customs. This experience prepared him for his next five years in Washington, D.C., where he was assigned to the commissioner of Indian Affairs and illus­ trated Henry Rowe Schoolcraft’s important six-volume Historical and Statistical Information Respecting the History, Condition, and Prospects of the Indian Tribes of the United States. During this time Eastman also assisted Captain Montgomery C. Meigs, superintendent of the Capitol Brevet Brigadier General Seth Eastman.

This battle was fought on August 16, 1777, in a British effort to capture American storehouses in Bennington to restock their depleting provisions. Baum had entrenched his men at the bridge across the Walloomsac River, Dragoon Redoubt, and Tory Fort, which Stark successfully attacked. Colonel Warner's Vermont militia arrived in time to assist Stark's reconstituted force in repelling Breymann's relief column of some 600 men. The British forces had underestimated the strength of their enemy and failed to get the supplies they had sought, weakening General John Burgoyne's army at Saratoga. Baum and over 200 men died and 700 men surrendered. The Americans lost 30 killed and forty wounded The Site: Hessian Hill offers picturesque views and interpretative signs about the battle. Directions: Take Route 7 east to Route 22, then take Route 22 north to Route 67.
