    General Lesley J. McNair: Little-Known Architect of the U.S. Army By [Copyright 2012] Mark T. Calhoun Submitted to the graduate degree program in History and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ________________________________ Dr. Theodore A. Wilson ________________________________ Dr. Robert F. Baumann ________________________________ Dr. Christopher R. Gabel ________________________________ Dr. Jeffrey P. Moran ________________________________ Dr. Brent J. Steele Date Defended: April 6, 2012 The Dissertation Committee for Mark T. Calhoun certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: General Lesley J. McNair: Little-Known Architect of the U.S. Army ________________________________ Dr. Theodore A. Wilson Date approved: April 6, 2012 ii ABSTRACT General Lesley J. McNair demonstrated an innovative spirit and exceptional intellectual capacity in his efforts to organize and train the U.S. Army for World War II. The influence he exerted on Army doctrine, training, equipment development, unit organization, and combined arms fighting methods placed him among the handful of generals most responsible for both the effectiveness and the flaws of the force that the United States sent to war in 1942. Through his strong views and aggressive leadership, McNair played a key role in guiding the Army’s interwar mechanization and doctrinal development efforts. Many studies of this period have described aspects of his participation in that process. However, no comprehensive study of McNair’s forty-year military career exists, largely because he did not survive the war, and he left behind no personal memoirs or diaries when he died of wounds inflicted by errant American bombs in Normandy on July 25, 1944.

OUR GARST FAMILY in America Compiled and Published by WILLIAM TELL GARST KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI All Material Edited and Arranged and Typed for the Printer by CLAUDIA COVINGTON GARST First Edition BROWN-WHITE-LOWELL PRESS KANSAS CITY 1950 COPYRIGHT, 1950 By WM. T. GARST Printed in the United States of America DEDICATION Lovingly dedicated to the memory of Benja­ min Franklin Garst and Arminta Hackett Garst, my well-beloved and very worthy parents. FOREWORD Philadelphia, the City of Brotherly Love, was the only specific destination for our earliest ancestors, when they boarded those slow­ moving ships, "Patience," "Molly," James Goodwill," "Isaac," et al, and came in search of freedom and justice. Next we hear of them located in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Bethel Township was to be their home. At that time Lancaster County was a wilderness. In 1785 the northern part of Lancaster County was cut off and called Dauphin County, with Harrisburg as the county seat, and in 1813 the eastern part of Dauphin County was cut off and called Lebanon County with Lebanon as the county seat. Hence records of Bethel Township are in Lebanon County, Pennsylvania. It is said that the early settler came with a gun on his shoulder, an axe in his hand, and a Bible in his pocket-the gun for protection from savages and wild beasts, the axe to clear the forest and build log houses, churches and schools, and the Bible to strengthen faith and lend spiritual guidance and courage for the task ahead.

Department of Social Services2 that there was no constitutional right to counsel for indigent parents facing involuntary termination of parental rights.3 The Lassiter Court mandated a case by case evaluation of the need for counsel based upon the balancing test described in Mathews v.

  • “Battles Were Not Fought in Lines”: Nationalism, Industrialism and Progressivism in the American Military Discourse, 1865-1918
    “Battles Were Not Fought In Lines”: Nationalism, Industrialism and Progressivism in the American Military Discourse, 1865-1918 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Leif A. Torkelsen, A.B., M.A., J.D. Department of History The Ohio State University 2018 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Geoffrey Parker, Adviser Dr. Nathan Rosenstein Dr. Bruno Cabanes Copyright by Leif A. Torkelsen 2018 Abstract Although notably modest in size compared to its European counterparts, the United States Army was still acutely aware of the technological and tactical developments occurring overseas in the decades prior to the First World War. Nonetheless, in the years 1914-17, US military planners were stubbornly reluctant to accept the extraordinary innovations then taking place on the battlefields of Europe. Worse still, when the United States finally did enter the war, the American Expeditionary Forces (AEF) in France resisted adopting the techniques and tactics of their allies, developed in battle at such great cost. Instead, the U.S. Army’s Field Service Regulations clung to a vision of lines of riflemen, advancing in open order, overcoming all resistance with controlled rifle fire followed-up with the bayonet. Trained in such outmoded and linear tactics (“open warfare”, as Pershing called it), the American troops fighting in France needlessly suffered heavy losses. This, despite the fact that the American army possessed a modern general staff, numerous service schools and journals, military attachés and observers the world over. The reasons for this failure lay in the development of the military discourse developed by the U.S.
