He will speak on Massachusetts during World War I including the 26th Infantry Division, Army and Navy installations, military and naval recruiting, and related topics. Since the centennial of the entry of the United States in World War I is April of 2017, this should be a very interesting subject. We also expect to have with us LTC Sheryl “Double” Ott, USAF, the Commander of Detachment 365 and Professor of Air Science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. LTC Ott’s unit was recently recognized as the best AFROTC unit in the nation. A full profile of Detachment 365 appeared in last month’s bulletin.

He retired from the Army in 1991 after four years in charge of the Army Chief of Staff’s Assessment and Initiatives Group. As a White House Fellow during the Ford and Carter administrations, he served as a special assistant to the Federal Energy Administrator and to the President’s National Security Advisor. A graduate from the U.S. Military Academy, he holds masters degrees from Yale University in international relations and political science. His most recent publications include a policy paper for The Atlantic Council of the United 2 1747552_1 States: The United States, NATO, and Security Relations with Central and Eastern Europe; studies for the RAND Corporation, Los Alamos National Laboratory, and Science Applications International Corporation on military strategy, technology, doctrine, training, and force structure, and on Persian Gulf lessons learned.

This meeting, with Region I Commander LTC Dennis Christo, USA (Ret.), is an opportunity to join the leaders and companions of other New England chapters in relaxed discussions of the challenges facing the MOWW both locally and nationally. There will be detailed information circulated to all companions concerning the meeting later in the year. CHAPTER NOTES MG Bob Davenport Still Ailing. General Davenport, one of our most stalwart companions, continues to suffer the consequences of a stroke. According to BG Fred Lincoln, Bob was recovering and sent a message to the Chapter regretting what he saw as an inability to be with us for several months,, but then he slipped into a coma, although the stroke had been immediately recognized and treated. At left, General Davenport is shown with Al Mundo (on the right) at the December holiday party. Our thoughts, prayers and best wishes go to Bob in this difficulty, We hope to see him back at our meetings very soon. We regret to announce the passing of COL F. Gorham Brigham, Jr., USAR (Ret.) of West N, who died on 1 September, 2016, at the age of 101. COL Brigham, a descendant of a prominent family of the earliest Massachusetts settlors, was a graduate of Harvard College and the Harvard Business School, of which he was the oldest living graduate prior to his death. Universally described as a great gentleman of the old school and an icon of the banking community, COL Brigham was a familiar figure in the Boston financial world, spending his career as an executive at the old Boston Five Cents Savings Bank, and, after its acquisition by Citizens Bank, on the leadership staff of that bank until his retirement at the age of 90. He also served on the board of many corporations, approximately six hospitals, and many other charitable, historical and fraternal organizations, including the Museum of Fine Arts. He was especially proud of being a co- founder and board leader of the Carroll School for children who suffer from dyslexia and language comprehension difficulties, and was also active in Harvard alumni activities. Called to service in World War II, he served in the office of General George C. Marshall’s chief of staff, concluding his 3 1747552_1 service in the grade of Lieutenant Colonel. He received the Legion of Merit for his wartime service, and remained in the Army Reserves until 1967 when he retired in the grade of Colonel in the Finance Corps. COL Brigham was a member of this Chapter for many years, but very recently allowed his membership to lapse as he became less active. We send our condolences to his widow, Hester, to who he was married for 75 years, a daughter, two sons, their spouses, grandchildren and a great- grandchild. A son, Dana, predeceased him. Above: Chapter Commander LCDR Dave Graham Presides at the 3 January Meeting The Chapter Commander’s Corner: Our January meeting was another in a long line of successes. Harold Shaw made a terrific presentation on where the FBI stands today. In spite of some political hoopla on the national scene of the past few months, Harold presented a “no nonsense” picture of true professionalism attributed to the Boston office in which he is in charge! Hats off to our Chapter’s staff for pulling together a truly magnificent program! And while I am at it, please stay tuned - - - for we have pulled together an exceptional list of speakers as we head down the road.

    Military Tribunals: the Quirin Precedent

    Order Code RL31340 CRS Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web Military Tribunals: The Quirin Precedent March 26, 2002 Louis Fisher Senior Specialist in Separation of Powers Government and Finance Division Congressional Research Service The Library of Congress Military Tribunals: The Quirin Precedent Summary On November 13, 2001, President George W. Bush issued a military order to provide for the detention, treatment, and trial of those who assisted the terrorist attacks on the two World Trade Center buildings in New York City and the Pentagon on September 11. In creating a military commission (tribunal) to try the terrorists, President Bush modeled his tribunal in large part on a proclamation and military order issued by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1942, after the capture of eight German saboteurs. This report describes the procedures used by the World War II military tribunal to try the eight Germans, the habeas corpus petition to the Supreme Court, and the resulting convictions and executions. Why was the tribunal created, and why were its deliberations kept secret? How have scholars evaluated the Court’s decision in Ex parte Quirin (1942)? The decision was unanimous, but archival records reveal division and disagreement among the Justices. Also covered in this report is a second effort by Germany two years later to send saboteurs to the United States. The two men captured in this operation were tried by a military tribunal, but under conditions and procedures that substantially reduced the roles of the President and the Attorney General. Those changes resulted from disputes within the Administration, especially between the War Department and the Justice Department.

    A Counterintelligence Reader, Volume 2 Chapter 1, CI in World

    CI in World War II 113 CHAPTER 1 Counterintelligence In World War II Introduction President Franklin Roosevelts confidential directive, issued on 26 June 1939, established lines of responsibility for domestic counterintelligence, but failed to clearly define areas of accountability for overseas counterintelligence operations" The pressing need for a decision in this field grew more evident in the early months of 1940" This resulted in consultations between the President, FBI Director J" Edgar Hoover, Director of Army Intelligence Sherman Miles, Director of Naval Intelligence Rear Admiral W"S" Anderson, and Assistant Secretary of State Adolf A" Berle" Following these discussions, Berle issued a report, which expressed the Presidents wish that the FBI assume the responsibility for foreign intelligence matters in the Western Hemisphere, with the existing military and naval intelligence branches covering the rest of the world as the necessity arose" With this decision of authority, the three agencies worked out the details of an agreement, which, roughly, charged the Navy with the responsibility for intelligence coverage in the Pacific" The Army was entrusted with the coverage in Europe, Africa, and the Canal Zone" The FBI was given the responsibility for the Western Hemisphere, including Canada and Central and South America, except Panama" The meetings in this formative period led to a proposal for the organization within the FBI of a Special Intelligence Service (SIS) for overseas operations" Agreement was reached that the SIS would act

    Tsetusuo Wakabayashi, Revealed

    Tsetusuo Wakabayashi, Revealed By Dwight R. Rider Edited by Eric DeLaBarre Preface Most great works of art begin with an objective in mind; this is not one of them. What follows in the pages below had its genesis in a research effort to determine what, if anything the Japanese General Staff knew of the Manhattan Project and the threat of atomic weapons, in the years before the detonation of an atomic bomb over Hiroshima in August 1945. That project drew out of an intense research effort into Japan’s weapons of mass destruction programs stretching back more than two decades; a project that remains on-going. Unlike a work of art, this paper is actually the result of an epiphany; a sudden realization that allows a problem, in this case the Japanese atomic energy and weapons program of World War II, to be understood from a different perspective. There is nothing in this paper that is not readily accessible to the general public; no access to secret documents, unreported interviews or hidden diaries only recently discovered. The information used in this paper has been, for the most part, available to researchers for nearly 30 years but only rarely reviewed. The paper that follows is simply a narrative of a realization drawn from intense research into the subject. The discoveries revealed herein are the consequence of a closer reading of that information. Other papers will follow. In October of 1946, a young journalist only recently discharged from the US Army in the drawdown following World War II, wrote an article for the Atlanta Constitution, the premier newspaper of the American south.

    The Influence of Ex-Parte Quirin and Courts

    Copyright 2008 by Northwestern University School of Law Vol. 103 Northwestern University Law Review Colloquy THE INFLUENCE OF EX PARTE QUIRIN AND COURTS-MARTIAL ON MILITARY COMMISSIONS Morris D. Davis* Professor Greg McNeal was an academic consultant to the prosecution during my tenure as the Chief Prosecutor for the military commissions at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. We had similar perspectives on many issues, and we still confer on detainee matters. I concur with the views expressed in his essay.1 I write to address two issues Professor McNeal identified and com- ment on how they affect the military commissions. First, I examine the case of the Nazi saboteurs—captured, tried, and executed in the span of seven weeks in 1942—and its influence on the decision in 2001 to resurrect military commissions. Second, I assess the conflicting statutory provisions in the Military Commissions Act and the impact on full, fair, and open tri- als. I. ATTEMPTING TO REPEAT HISTORY Professor McNeal argues that the administration chose military com- missions to protect information collected for intelligence (intel) purposes from disclosure. Safeguarding intel, particularly the sources and methods used to acquire information, was a key factor, but I believe the decision had a broader basis heavily influenced by a precedent-setting trial in 1942 that became the template for the President‘s Military Order of November 13, 2001.2 Shortly after midnight the morning of June 13, 1942, four men left a German submarine and came ashore at Amagansett Beach, New York.3 * Morris D. Davis served as Chief Prosecutor for the military commissions at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, from September 2005 to October 2007.

    Reference abstracts of KV 2/564 This document contains materials derived from the latter file Its purpose: to be used as a kind of reference document, containing my personal selection of report sections; considered being of relevance. My input: I have in almost every case created transcripts of the just reproduced file content. However, sometimes adding my personal opinion; always accompanied by: AOB (with- or without brackets) Please do not multiply this document Remember: that the section-copies still do obey to Crown Copyright By Arthur O. Bauer Please notice: For simplicity, I have this time not completely transcribed all genuine text contents, therefore I would like to advise you to read these passages also. This concerns a unique Story, where two spies had been brought ashore on the beach of Frenchman’s Bay in the US State Maine, on 29th November 1944. One was Erich Gimpel the second one was Colepaugh a US born ‘subject’. Erich Gimpel passed finally away in 2010, living Sao Paulo, at an age of 100 years! As to ease to understand the context I first would like to quote from Wikipedia. Quoting from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erich_Gimpel Erich Gimpel From Wikipedia, the free encyclopaedia Erich Gimpel (25 March 1910 in Merseburg – 3 September 2010 in Sao Paulo) was a German spy during World War II. Together with William Colepaugh, he traveled to the United States on an espionage mission (operation Elster) in 1944 and was subsequently captured by the FBI in New York City.[1] German secret agent Gimpel had been a radio operator for mining companies in Peru in the 1930s.
