General Schmidt skillfully directed the attack of his troops to capture and occupy this strategic island. He handled the various units under his command with brilliant tactical skill. His sound judgment, distinctive administrative ability and unfailing devotion to duty were vital factors in the success of the entire operation." Following the conclusion of hostilities, the General led the Fifth Corps in the occupation of the Japanese homeland. In 1946, he was ordered back to the United States to assume command of the Marine Training and Replacement Command, San Diego Area, California.

The bachelor's degree, the baccalaureate, takes its name directly from the medieval practice of "bachelors" wearing a garland of bayberries. The master's degree was equivalent to a license to teach, and sometimes was followed by the express words Licentia Docendi.

FOR THE RUTGERS ORAL HISTORY ARCHIVES WORLD WAR II * KOREAN WAR * VIETNAM WAR * COLD WAR INTERVIEW CONDUCTED BY KATHRYN H. TRACY SYRACUSE, NEW YORK JANUARY 13, 2001 TRANSCRIPT BY KATHRYN H. TRACY Kathryn Tracy: This begins an interview on January 13, 2001 in Syracuse, New York with Charles Sedgwick Tracy, Sr. I want to begin by talking about the family history. Let us talk about your paternal side, first. Charles Sedgwick Tracy, Sr.: My father was born in 1873, son of Colonel Osgood V. Tracy, who was in the 122nd New York Volunteer Regiment during the Civil War. … His brother, Will Tracy, had also joined up in that same regiment, and they fought all during the Civil War. … My Uncle Will, who had gotten commissioned through the influence of a very strong mother, decided that he didn't deserve the commission and resigned. He went out to Indiana and entered as a private in an Indiana regiment, where he first was in battle. He later ended up on the staff of General [Henry Warner] Slocum of the VI Corps. At the Battle of Chancellorsville, he was taking a message to one of the division commanders, and in that wilderness of woods and thickets, he got lost. … He found that all of a sudden, on his horse, that he had wandered into what appeared to be a Confederate battery. He realized that he had a very important message to deliver, and the Confederates didn't recognize him at once, because he was all covered with dust.

  • “Getting Rid of the Line:” Toward an American Infantry Way of Battle, 1918-1945
    “GETTING RID OF THE LINE:” TOWARD AN AMERICAN INFANTRY WAY OF BATTLE, 1918-1945 ________________________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board ________________________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Earl J. Catagnus, Jr. May, 2017 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Gregory J.W. Urwin, Advisory Chair, Department of History Dr. Jay Lockenour, Department of History Dr. Beth Bailey, Department of History Dr. Timothy K Nenninger, National Archives and Records Administration ii © Copyright 2017 By _Earl J. Catagnus, Jr._ All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the development of America’s infantry forces between 1918-1945. While doing so, it challenges and complicates the traditional narrative that highlights the fierceness of the rivalry between the U.S. Army and Marine Corps. During the First World War, both commissioned and enlisted Marines attended U.S. Army schools and served within Army combat formations, which brought the two closer together than ever before. Both services became bonded by a common warfighting paradigm, or way of battle, that centered upon the infantry as the dominant combat arm. All other arms and services were subordinated to the needs and requirements of the infantry. Intelligent initiative, fire and maneuver by the smallest units, penetrating hostile defenses while bypassing strong points, and aggressive, not reckless, leadership were all salient characteristics of that shared infantry way of battle. After World War I, Army and Marine officers constructed similar intellectual proposals concerning the ways to fight the next war. Although there were differences in organizational culture, the two were more alike in their respective values systems than historians have realized.

  • War Correspondent and USMC Staff Sgt
    War correspondent and USMC Staff Sgt. Solomon Israel Blechman (son of Rabbi Nathan and Esther Blechman of Mamaroneck, NY), was born in New York City on 26 January 1921. His father had worked on the Jewish Welfare Board concerning military hospitals and was also part of the Jewish Theological Seminary, which is the main educational organization for Conservative Judaism. Solomon was raised with an understanding that having a strong military, strong educational institutions and a strong faith community in one’s country was very important. Solomon joined the Marine Corps in the summer of 1942 right after he had graduated from Union College in May. By the summer of 1943, he was promoted to staff sergeant, which was an explosive climb through the ranks (private, private first class, corporal, sergeant, staff sergeant). Many people would require years to do this, yet he did this in a year showing his strength of character and intelligence (also having a college education helped him tremendously). Some clear evidence that this guy was a thinking Marine, as he traveled through the Pacific, along with all his combat gear that he carried to fight the enemy, he also had the following books on his person: “Emerson’s poems,” “The Picture of Dorian Gray,” “Festival Synagogue Service,” “Vanity Fair,” “Mother Russia,” “Marines and Others,” “Tristran Shandy,” “Holy Scriptures for Jewish Soldiers,” and “Jewish Prayer.” He showed that the ultimate weapon is an educated mind and he loved reading (evidenced by the fact he added probably 10-15 pounds of books to his pile of 70 pounds of combat gear that he had to lug around during marches, drills, and deployments).

During President Barack Obama's first primetime press conference, reporters asked primarily about the state of the economy and terrorism. Wedged between questions on these two vital issues was a query from the Washington Post's Michael Fletcher: Question: What is your reaction to Alex Rodriguez's admission that he used steroids as a member of the Texas Rangers?
