  • Únicos En Su Especie
    úNICOS EN SU ESPECIE Javier YUSTE gONZÁLEZ Licenciado en Derecho UANDO la imaginación nos transporta hasta caudalosos ríos o nos permite reposar sobre la inmensidad de los grandes lagos de América del Norte, se pueden ver las altas copas de los árboles rasgar el cielo y las turbulen- tas aguas surcadas por canoas y kayaks, pero también por sus extraños y curiosos barcos provistos de palas. Molinos flotantes en movimiento. Fieles representantes de un tiempo pasado que se quedó estacionado, un poco más, en aquellas frías latitudes. Algunos llegaron a participar en la Segunda guerra Mundial. De necesidades imperiosas La misma naturaleza que nos ha dotado de ingenio, ofrece claros ejemplos de cómo varios individuos pueden acechar, atacar y vencer a otro mucho más grande y peligroso con un mínimo de coordinación, planificación, arrojo y, claro, suerte. Posiblemente nuestro primer gran éxito en esta táctica se materia- lizó cuando el hombre primitivo se organizó con otros miembros de su tribu y abatieron a un mamut para proveerse de carne; también para exterminar a otros depredadores con los que competía en una feroz lucha por la supervivencia. En la Historia de la guerra naval, por ejemplo, vemos cómo los navíos de línea sucumbían ante las ligeras y rápidas, pero mortales, fragatas. Incluso las pequeñas cañoneras, bien comandadas y provistas de dotaciones entrenadas, hacían verdaderos estragos. Mismo destino tuvieron los grandes buques acora- zados ante los zarpazos de gatos como los destructores y las lanchas, unidos al ingenio del torpedo y al posterior submarino. Ya el siglo XX vio alas metálicas para la guerra.

    TELESCOPE September 1961 Vol. 10 N o . 9 published by the Great Lakes Maritime Institute 162 Telescope In Umonam Insvpll IE* Intynntnn JOSEPH E. JOHNSTON 1892 1961 Last month, on the day that TELESCOPE went into the mails, the Institute, and this column, lost a dear friend. He was the first member of the Institute, for he founded the old Great Lakes Model Shipbuilder's Guild. He started TELESCOPE as a mimeographed monthly "newsletter", back in 1952. There is no point in trying to tally his contributions, for it can only lead back to the beginning, and he was the beginning. Because Captain Johnston was a dear friend to this column, it would be impossible to untangle sentiment from our think­ ing, and we won't even try. We loved him, and we respected him in much the same way we would a father. We looked upon him with reverence and awe. To most people he was “Cap", but we were among the very few to whom he was Joe. We can call to mind many impressions of this man; spinner of yarns, a teacher, an artist, and of course, a sailor. But most of all he was a gentleman and a gentle man. The accompanying picture says a great deal of what we think when we think of Joe. “Winky, the ship's cat", was a personality in his own right and well known to the old readers of TELESCOPE. That personality was but one facet, in reflection, of the "old man" himself. There are many more of these facets which reflect Joe for what he was, and for what his having been here has meant to us.

That elbow grease and TLC would come from DYC members Penny and Doug Breck, who both possess remarkable talent and skill. After seven months of work, Miss Pepsi is now ready to greet museum visitors and show off her graceful mahogany lines, twin Allison engines and the most beautiful finish on the lakes. This will be the last issue of Telescope typeset on the Compugraphic machine. Many members will remember back to May, 1978 when we switched from the Varityper to the Compu­ graphic. Because of the advances in computers, especially in the area of laser printers, the GLMI Board voted in February to purchase a desk-top publishing unit with the computer. In the past two years we’ve had a few problems with the Compugraphic machine (in one issue the letter “k” quit on the keyboard) and rather than spend over $1,000.00 for repairs, the Board voted to buy a computer. When the repairman came to look at the Compugraphic Execuwriter II for the last time, he informed us that the GLMI had the last model in the State of Michigan.

    MARITIME MUSEUM AND BRIG NIAGARA TOUR COMMODORE OLIVER HAZARD PERRY ON HIS WAY TO HISTORY AND THE FLAGSHIP NIAGARA Kathie Walter has been very active in trying to provide the association with opportunities for a memorable weekend. She is a member of the Flagship Niagara League so she was able to get us discounted fees to visit the Erie Maritime Museum. This is her latest offer for those interested in seeing the museum and Brig NIAGARA on the same visit: On Friday, June 1st, Alpha Association is being offered a guided tour that will include the Erie Maritime Museum and the Flagship Niagara. It will take place at noontime and last about two hours. The cost per person will be $7.00 per person, a bargain for those interested. We were very fortunate that the Flagship Niagara will be at the museum during the weekend of the reunion. Much of the time, it is out touring the Great Lakes serving as an ambassador of Pennsylvania. THE HISTORY OF THE USS NIAGARA FLAGSHIP NIAGARA ‘CROSSING THE T’ MANEUVER Everyone recalls from their grade school text books that Commodore Perry became famous for defeating the British during the Battle of Lake Erie coining the phrase, “We have met the enemy, and they are ours.” Perry commanded a group of nine American warships who engaged a fleet of six British frigates off the coast of Ohio. Perry’s fleet was led by the ships USS LAWRENCE,(named after Captain James Lawrence, who had his own famous iconic plea as he was dying, ‘DON’T GIVE UP THE SHIP’), and the USS NIAGARA.

  • A Centennial of Naval Aviation 100 Years of Progress and Achievement
    A Centennial of Naval Aviation 100 Years of Progress and Achievement United States Navy United States Marine Corps United States Coast Guard A Curtiss “Hydroaeroplane” is pushed into the water in preparation for flight at North Island in January 1911. On the 26th of the same month this aircraft achieved a notable aviation “first” by being the first aircraft to operate from water. Note that the engine has a pusher propeller and the ailerons are independent of the wings. On 8 May 1911, Captain Washington Irving Chambers, United States Navy, officer in charge of aviation, prepared the requisition for the Navy’s first aircraft to be purchased from aviator and inventor Glenn H. Curtiss. After 98 years, Naval Aviation has grown from a tactical afterthought and support capability to a primary instrument of our national security. From the Curtiss A-1 Triad, to the F/A-18 Super Hornet, from the USS Langley (CV 1) to the USS George H.W. Bush (CVN 77), Naval Aviation has scored an impressive list of achievements in peace and war. The first crossing of the At- lantic by air, victory at the Battle of Midway, and the first American in space, to name a few, have put Naval Aviation at the forefront of our national destiny. The Centennial of Naval Aviation kicks off January of 2011 and continues as a year-long celebration with a variety of events and commemorations through- out the year. Airshows, art exhibits, flyovers and tactical demonstrations are but a few of the events being planned.
