  • The Fairmiles
    October 31, 2007 This is the Seventh Section of the manuscript “Radio Stations Common? Not This Kind” by Spurgeon G. Roscoe Radioman Special Royal Canadian Navy 1956-1961 Graduate Radio College of Canada, Toronto Graduate National Radio Institute, Washington First Class Certificate of Proficiency in Radio # 6-108 Coast Guard Radiotelegraph Operators Certificate # 054 Amateur Radio Station VE1BC THE FAIRMILES When I realized I was never going to have a book on this history I kept adding to it for my own enjoyment especially this section on the Fairmiles. Joan and I will have been married 46 years on September 7th, 2007. Joan is one of the Kinney girls from Kinney Road, Ashmore, Nova Scotia and her family helped construct these Fairmiles so the 15 Weymouth built copies are like family. Jerry Proc VE3FAB now has his version of this section on his web site under Fairmile Radio Fit. Our shipyards were to turn out 456 merchant ships and some 300 naval vessels during World War II. These ships were built by a number of shipyards and the size of the yard normally dictated the size of the ships it constructed. The little ships known by the name Fairmile fascinate me most of the naval ships constructed. The British Fairmile Company designed them, so the British and British Commonwealth navies called them Fairmiles. They were designed as a sister ship to the Submarine Chaser of the United States Navy. At the outbreak of World War II steps were taken for the smaller Canadian shipyards to build a fleet of these little ships for the Royal Canadian Navy.

  • Wolf Pack Operations in the North Atlantic, 10 February-22 March 1944
    Failure at Sea: Wolf Pack Operations in the North Atlantic, 10 February-22 March 1944 David Syrett Despite the turning point in the Atlantic campaign in May 1943, the great strategic objective during the first months of 1944 for German U-boats still remained to try to cut the transatlantic supply lines between North America and Great Britain. If this could be done, German planners reasoned, the Allies would be incapable of mounting an invasion of northwestern Europe in the spring of 1944.1 The U-boats in 1943 thus undertook large- scale attacks on convoys in the North Atlantic in an attempt to sever the Allies' maritime supply routes. In a series of convoy battles in which the submarines suffered heavy losses but sunk few Allied ships, the Germans were decisively defeated and the U-boats were forced to withdraw from the mid-Atlantic convoy routes.2 This was a major defeat and ended any realistic chance the Germans had of cutting the transatlantic convoy routes. The defeat of the U-boats in 1943 was due to Allied superiority in tactics, weapon systems, and above all in communications intelligence.3 Not only were the locations of U-boats betrayed by communications intelligence but, by the beginning of 1944, the Allies had the resources in the form of both carrier-borne and land-based aircraft, as well as surface escorts, to operate with overpowering force against the Germans in any part of the North Atlantic.4 Moreover, these surface escorts and aircraft were equipped with the latest and most sophisticated types of detection devices and weapons.5 To make matters worse for the Germans, they did not at the time fully understand the reasons for the defeat of their U-boats in the mid-North Atlantic in 1943.6 Nor at the beginning of 1944 did they know that an Allied invasion of northwestern Europe was imminent and that it would most likely occur in the spring of 1944.7 Hence, they saw no real strategic alternative other than to continue the U-boat offensive against Allied convoys despite the losses they had sustained in the previous months.

    Military History Anniversaries 1 thru 15 MAR Events in History over the next 15 day period that had U.S. military involvement or impacted in some way on U.S military operations or American interests Mar 01 1781 – American Revolution: Articles of Confederation are Ratified » The Articles are finally ratified. They were signed by Congress and sent to the individual states for ratification on November 15, 1777, after 16 months of debate. Bickering over land claims between Virginia and Maryland delayed final ratification for almost four more years. Maryland finally approved the Articles on March 1, 1781, affirming the Articles as the outline of the official government of the United States. The nation was guided by the Articles of Confederation until the implementation of the current U.S. Constitution in 1789. The critical distinction between the Articles of Confederation and the U.S. Constitution —the primacy of the states under the Articles—is best understood by comparing the following lines. The Articles of Confederation begin: “To all to whom these Present shall come, we the undersigned Delegates of the States” By contrast, the Constitution begins: “We the People of the United States do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.” The predominance of the states under the Articles of Confederation is made even more explicit by the claims of Article II: “Each state retains its sovereignty, freedom, and independence, and every power, jurisdiction, and right, which is not by this Confederation expressly delegated to the United States, in Congress assembled.” Less than five years after the ratification of the Articles of Confederation, enough leading Americans decided that the system was inadequate to the task of governance that they peacefully overthrew their second government in just over 20 years.
