  • The Urgency for the Acquisition of the Danish
    THE URGENCY FOR THE ACQUISITION OF THE DANISH WEST INDIES By Aimery Caron Presented to the Caribbean Genealogy Library on the occasion of the 97th anniversary of Transfer Day March 31, 2014 ABSTRACT. Unlike 1867, 1890 and 1902, in 1916, already two years into World War I, the US Navy was not looking for an added coaling station or naval base in the Caribbean. However, since 1902, it had been clear to Admiral George DEWEY that Kaiser WILHELM II coveted the Danish West Indies to be used as a naval base, through which he could exert military and political power in the Caribbean. After the improvements made to the St. Thomas Harbor facilities just prior to World War I, and Admiral von Tirpitz’ U-boat campaign to sink all commercial and naval ships aiding the Allies, it became obvious that the Hamburg-American Line facilities in St. Thomas Harbor might be used as a U-boat supply base for the control of maritime traffic in the Caribbean and the Mid-Atlantic. Aware of this serious German threat, Admiral DEWEY convinced President Woodrow WILSON and the US Congress that the acquisition of the Danish West Indies was a matter of great urgency. He should be credited for speeding the sale negotiations, which successfully ended on 4 August 1916, for persuading the US Senate to ratify the treaty only a month later, and for saving the Caribbean from the scourge of German U-boats during World War I. EARLY INTERESTS IN THE DANISH WEST INDIES The US Purchase Attempt of 1867 On January 7, 1865, US Secretary of State William H.

  • United States Navy and World War I: 1914–1922
    Cover: During World War I, convoys carried almost two million men to Europe. 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. All errors and omissions are solely those of the author.

  • Appendix As Too Inclusive
    Color profile: Disabled Composite Default screen Appendix I A Chronological List of Cases Involving the Landing of United States Forces to Protect the Lives and Property of Nationals Abroad Prior to World War II* This Appendix contains a chronological list of pre-World War II cases in which the United States landed troops in foreign countries to pro- tect the lives and property of its nationals.1 Inclusion of a case does not nec- essarily imply that the exercise of forcible self-help was motivated solely, or even primarily, out of concern for US nationals.2 In many instances there is room for disagreement as to what motive predominated, but in all cases in- cluded herein the US forces involved afforded some measure of protection to US nationals or their property. The cases are listed according to the date of the first use of US forces. A case is included only where there was an actual physical landing to protect nationals who were the subject of, or were threatened by, immediate or po- tential danger. Thus, for example, cases involving the landing of troops to punish past transgressions, or for the ostensible purpose of protecting na- tionals at some remote time in the future, have been omitted. While an ef- fort to isolate individual fact situations has been made, there are a good number of situations involving multiple landings closely related in time or context which, for the sake of convenience, have been treated herein as sin- gle episodes. The list of cases is based primarily upon the sources cited following this paragraph.

  • US Navy Supply Corps
    SEPTEMBER / OCTOBER 2017 SUPPOs Supplying the Fight A Message from the Chief of Supply Corps Recognizing the central importance of supply to establishing the Navy, President George Washington laid the foundation for the U.S. Navy Supply Corps in 1775 with the appointment of Tench Francis, a Philadelphia businessman, as the country’s first Purveyor of Public Supplies. Francis provided vital support to the first Navy ships, and started our tradition of selfless service. The Navy’s trusted providers of supplies, our supply officers (SUPPOs) keep operations running smoothly to support the mission. But they can’t do it alone. Working as a team with their skilled and experienced enlisted members, our SUPPOs are experts in our field who know inventory and financial management, food, retail, postal operations, and disbursing management. They are leaders and problem solvers who tackle complex challenges to implement effective and efficient management solutions, ensuring our customers’ needs are met. To be “Ready for Sea,” we must be professionally ready with the skills to operate in all our lines of operation. We also need character readiness, demonstrated by our integrity, accountabili- ty, initiative, and toughness. Lastly, we need to be individually ready; to be fit, healthy, and ready to meet the demands of the fight. This issue provides insights from our SUPPOs’ important work as they meet the unique needs of their various commands. Like the pursuers and paymasters who have gone before, SUPPOs uphold our rich heritage, and embrace their responsibilities to support the warfighter with a servant’s heart. Our SUPPO’s success depends on their character and competence, knowledge of the shore infrastructure, relationships with our professional civilian workforce, and on the enlisted members they lead and serve with.

  • The USS BRAINE-DD630 Was Laid at the Bath Iron Works on October 12, 1942
    USS Braine (DD-630) The keel for the USS BRAINE-DD630 was laid at the Bath Iron Works on October 12, 1942. Accelerated construction continued until launching on March 7, 1943. During the construction period, the assembly of officers and crew began. The first officer to report was Ensign Arthur F. Moricca, a graduate engineer of Rennsalear Polytechnic Institute. The first Commanding Officer, Commander John F. Newman, Jr., USN soon reported to Bath. He was followed by officers Ensign John D. Hotchkiss, Asst. Engineering Officer; Lieutenant John T. Evans, First Lieutenant; Lt(jg) Henry J. Watters, Communications Officer; Ensign William M. Eastman, Supply Officer; Lieutenant George W. Montgomery, Gunnery Officer. The new officers and crew observed the construction of the ship to become familiar with its components and operation.
