  • A Bird's Eye View of 305 Bomb Group and The
    ABSTRACT MCDOWELL, MICHAEL NORWOOD. War Eagles: A Bird’s Eye View of 305th Bomb Group and the Eighth Air Force from the experiences of David C. Cox and Joseph B. Boyle (Under the direction of Joseph Caddell and Nancy Mitchell) The purpose of this study is to document the history of the 305th Bomb Group and the Eighth Air Force during the critical early period (late 1942 through 1943) in World War II through the experiences of two members who served during this era. This thesis will take a personal view of the aerial combat through the wartime diary of David C. Cox and the oral history of Joseph B. Boyle. Cox and Boyle were friends who served in the 305th Bomb Group from its beginning until they were shot down during different missions in 1943. After the downing of their planes by the Germans, both men became re-acquainted as they became roommates in Stalag Luft III, the German POW camp where events depicted in the movie The Great Escape happened. Other studies have documented the history of the Eighth Air Force and the 305th Bomb Group. During this time, the Eighth Air Force was just beginning to learn the difficulty of conducting daylight bombing missions over Europe. During the period from October 1942 through December of 1943, the losses for the Eighth Air Force were very high, mostly due to the lack of a fighter that could escort the bombers all the way to their targets and back. Other historians have documented the difficulties that the Eighth Air Force, and the 305th Bomb Group in particular, faced during this stage of World War II.

  • Communication, Interpreting and Language in Wartime Historical and Contemporary Perspectives
    PALGRAVE STUDIES IN LANGUAGES AT WAR Communication, Interpreting and Language in Wartime Historical and Contemporary Perspectives Edited by Amanda Laugesen · Richard Gehrmann Palgrave Studies in Languages at War Series Editors Hilary Footitt Department of Modern Languages and European Studies University of Reading Reading, UK Michael Kelly Department of Modern Languages University of Southampton Southampton, Hampshire, UK Languages play a crucial role in war, conflict and peacemaking: in intel- ligence gathering and evaluation, pre-deployment preparations, opera- tions on the ground, regime-change, and supporting refugees and displaced persons. In the politics of war, languages have a dual impact: a public policy dimension, setting frameworks and expectations; and the lived experience of those ‘on the ground’, working with and meeting speakers of other languages. This series intends to bring together books which deal with the role of languages in situations of conflict, including war, civil war, occupation, peace-keeping, peace-enforcement and humanitarian action in war zones. It will offer an interdisciplinary approach, drawing on applied linguistics, sociolinguistics, translation studies, intercultural communication, his- tory, politics, international relations and cultural studies. Books in the series will explore specific conflict situations across a range of times and places, and specific language-related roles and activities, examining three contexts: languages and the military, meeting the other in war and peace-­ making, and interpreting/translating

  • Consider the Few Men When They Made Their Success
    Capt. Curran L. 'Jack' Jones, a 5-kill ace, flew with Lynch in the 39th squadron. In Eric Bergerud's Fire in the Sky: The Air War in the South Pacific, Jones describes how Lynch balanced aggressivess and calculation. Thomas J. Lynch, born in Catasauqua, Pennsylvania, was a precise pilot, a technician. One measure of his skill was the fact that he shot down three Japanese planes while flying the decidedly inferior P-39 Airacobra. Lynch achieved 3 victories in a P-39: 2 over New Guinea on May 20, and another on May 26. The squadron's combat diary include these comments on the P-39 from the pilots: "Could have done better with a truck. It's more maneuverable and will go higher." "Could have done damn good with an altitude ship." But they gave as good as they got in these two months: losing 10 Airacobras (but no pilots), while claiming 10 Zeros. "All good fighter pilots were aggressive. Some were exceptionally so. My dear friend Bob Faurot was like that. ... Tommy Lynch was our leading ace. He was cold-blooded. I think he was the best fighter pilot in the Pacific. In combat he was calculating. ... I preferred flying Tommy's wing compared to Bob's because when Faurot saw the enemy he'd say "Tally Ho! There they are, let's get 'em." He'd climb up straight underneath them and try to attack. Now that's risky against a Zero. You want to maneuver and find a good position to begin your attack before closing.

  • Special Oversight Challenges in National Security Interrogations Erik Jens, J.D., National Intelligence University March 2017
    A Brief History of Scandals: Special Oversight Challenges in National Security Interrogations Erik Jens, J.D., National Intelligence University March 2017 INTRODUCTION:1 Remember in the United States there are no secrets, only delayed disclosures. One day, whether one year away or ten years away, people will be looking at what we did, so make sure you act with the utmost integrity. –Mark Fallon, FBI counterterrorism official, quoted in Ali H. Soufan’s The Black Banners: The Inside Story of 9/11 and the War Against al-Qaeda A history of (at least) American national security operations and initiatives shows fairly convincingly the need for external oversight. Time and again, executive branch agencies have, with the best of motives as they perceived them, violated Americans’ civil rights, compromised foreign relations, or otherwise behaved in ways irrelevant or counterproductive to national defense. The Church Committee report, the Pentagon Papers, Iran-Contra, and a number of other exposes during and since the Cold War, have illustrated the range of abuses committed by executive branch agencies in the name of national defense. More recently, a partly declassified Senate report on the CIA’s post-9/11 interrogation and detention program has shown once again that in the intelligence arena, “there are no secrets, only delayed disclosures.” History has amply demonstrated that interrogation succeeds best, and with the least amount of excess and abuse, when conducted by trained and certified personnel, pursuant to a formal program of instruction, 1 with provisions for regular oversight by both the local chain of command and by outside observers.

  • The Interrogator: Story of Hanns Joachim Scharff Master Interrogator of the Luftwaffe Pdf
    FREE THE INTERROGATOR: STORY OF HANNS JOACHIM SCHARFF MASTER INTERROGATOR OF THE LUFTWAFFE PDF Raymond F. Toliver | 352 pages | 07 Mar 1998 | Schiffer Publishing Ltd | 9780764302619 | English | Atglen, United States | Interrogator, Raymond F. Toliver | | Boeken When thinking of master interrogators, cruel individuals come to mind. Individuals who are able to inflict a great deal of physical or emotional pain on another without feeling empathy. A completely inhuman occupation but in the realms of society, it has always been an essential commodity, especially during times of war. The same thought applies when thinking about the NAZIs, an idea of evil individuals. While this is untrue for the majority who were simply following a regime, others — many of those at the head of the party — took pride in their policies and practices. So when the two are combined — a NAZI interrogator — the phrase has a very dark connotation. This particular interrogator worked his way up the ranks and by World War II oversaw prisoner camps known as Dulag Lufts. When enemies of the state were captured they were brought to the attention of the specialist known as Hanns Scharff. Scharff was born inin the East Prussian Empire. On reaching adulthood he was sent to South Africa which made him fluent in English. He excelled in the sales division of a company, handling clients who considered him to be a gentleman to do business with. This information would be a coincidence to some extent later in the story. The newly-wed Hanns and Margaret went on holiday to Germany one summer but it would turn into a longer stay than first hoped.
