  • The Vietnam War an Australian Perspective
    THE VIETNAM WAR AN AUSTRALIAN PERSPECTIVE [Compiled from records and historical articles by R Freshfield] Introduction What is referred to as the Vietnam War began for the US in the early 1950s when it deployed military advisors to support South Vietnam forces. Australian advisors joined the war in 1962. South Korea, New Zealand, The Philippines, Taiwan and Thailand also sent troops. The war ended for Australian forces on 11 January 1973, in a proclamation by Governor General Sir Paul Hasluck. 12 days before the Paris Peace Accord was signed, although it was another 2 years later in May 1975, that North Vietnam troops overran Saigon, (Now Ho Chi Minh City), and declared victory. But this was only the most recent chapter of an era spanning many decades, indeed centuries, of conflict in the region now known as Vietnam. This story begins during the Second World War when the Japanese invaded Vietnam, then a colony of France. 1. French Indochina – Vietnam Prior to WW2, Vietnam was part of the colony of French Indochina that included Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam. Vietnam was divided into the 3 governances of Tonkin, Annam, and Cochinchina. (See Map1). In 1940, the Japanese military invaded Vietnam and took control from the Vichy-French government stationing some 30,000 troops securing ports and airfields. Vietnam became one of the main staging areas for Japanese military operations in South East Asia for the next five years. During WW2 a movement for a national liberation of Vietnam from both the French and the Japanese developed in amongst Vietnamese exiles in southern China.

Asbestos-containing products and equipment were widely used across every branch of the military between 1930 and the late 1970s. 2. 44% of all Sokolove Law mesothelioma cases are U.S. Veterans – representing nearly every state in the U.S. 3. Symptoms of mesothelioma can take 20-50 years to appear. 4. An estimated $30 Billion in court-ordered trusts has been set aside to provide funds for victims and families. 5.

  • 403 on the Twenty-Ninth Day of May, 1919, Robert Bacon, a Life Mem
    EDITOEIAL COMMENT 403 IN MEMORIAM—ROBERT BACON' On the twenty-ninth day of May, 1919, Robert Bacon, a life mem­ ber of the American Society of International Law, and at one time Assistant, and Secretary of State, Ambassador to France, Major, Lieu­ tenant-Colonel, and Colonel in the American Expeditionary forces in France, died, in the fifty-eighth year of his age, in a hospital in the City of New York. The thing at hand he did, and did well, in college, in business, in civil life and in the military service of his country. As undergraduate of Harvard, in the class of his life-long friend Theodore Roosevelt, he was a good student and easily first in athletics. In business he became the partner and confidant of the late John Pierpont Morgan. Appointed Assistant Secretary of State by Secretary Root, that great statesman and competent judge of men said of him and to him: You have proved yourself far more able and forceful than I dared to hope— possessed of courage to take responsibility and conduct great affairs without flinching or the loss of judgment or nerve—competent to fill any post of govern­ ment with distinction and success. More than that, you have had the imagina­ tion to realize the ultimate objects of policy, and tireless energy and enthusiasm and self-devotion in pressing towards those objects, and your brave-hearted cheer­ fulness and power of friendship and steadfast loyalty have been noble and beautiful. I am sure you have a still more distinguished career before you for all who love you to rejoice in.

  • The Employment Situation of Veterans
    February 2013 The Employment Situation of Veterans Today, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported that the overall unemployment rate for all Americans (population 16 and over) edged down to 7.7%. The employment situation for veterans overall has also experienced a decrease in unemployment. The unemployment rates for all veterans decreased from 8.3% in January to 7.8% in February. For Gulf War era II veterans (post-9/11 generation), the unemployment rate has also decreased from 11.7% to 9.4%. However, the youngest post-9/11 veterans, those ages 20-24, saw a 6.6% increase in their unemployment rate from January to February, which remains the highest unemployment rate of all age groups at 38.0%. This rate of the young post-9/11 veterans is more than twice as high as their nonveteran counterparts. About 60% of the young post-9/11 veterans, ages 20-24, have been unemployed for more than five weeks. Of the 203,000 unemployed post-9/11 veterans ages 20 and over, 13% have been unemployed for less than five weeks, 30% unemployed for five to 14 weeks and 57% have been unemployed for 15 weeks or more.
