  • United States Navy and World War I: 1914–1922
    Cover: During World War I, convoys carried almost two million men to Europe. In this 1920 oil painting “A Fast Convoy” by Burnell Poole, the destroyer USS Allen (DD-66) is shown escorting USS Leviathan (SP-1326). Throughout the course of the war, Leviathan transported more than 98,000 troops. Naval History and Heritage Command 1 United States Navy and World War I: 1914–1922 Frank A. Blazich Jr., PhD Naval History and Heritage Command Introduction This document is intended to provide readers with a chronological progression of the activities of the United States Navy and its involvement with World War I as an outside observer, active participant, and victor engaged in the war’s lingering effects in the postwar period. The document is not a comprehensive timeline of every action, policy decision, or ship movement. What is provided is a glimpse into how the 20th century’s first global conflict influenced the Navy and its evolution throughout the conflict and the immediate aftermath. The source base is predominately composed of the published records of the Navy and the primary materials gathered under the supervision of Captain Dudley Knox in the Historical Section in the Office of Naval Records and Library. A thorough chronology remains to be written on the Navy’s actions in regard to World War I. The nationality of all vessels, unless otherwise listed, is the United States. All errors and omissions are solely those of the author.

  • Submarines in the United States Navy - Wikipedia Page 1 of 13
    Submarines in the United States Navy - Wikipedia Page 1 of 13 Submarines in the United States Navy There are three major types of submarines in the United States Navy: ballistic missile submarines, attack submarines, and cruise missile submarines. All submarines in the U.S. Navy are nuclear-powered. Ballistic subs have a single strategic mission of carrying nuclear submarine-launched ballistic missiles. Attack submarines have several tactical missions, including sinking ships and subs, launching cruise missiles, and gathering intelligence. The submarine has a long history in the United States, beginning with the Turtle, the world's first submersible with a documented record of use in combat.[1] Contents Early History (1775–1914) World War I and the inter-war years (1914–1941) World War II (1941–1945) Offensive against Japanese merchant shipping and Japanese war ships Lifeguard League Cold War (1945–1991) Towards the "Nuclear Navy" Strategic deterrence Post–Cold War (1991–present) Composition of the current force Fast attack submarines Ballistic and guided missile submarines Personnel Training Pressure training Escape training Traditions Insignia Submarines Insignia Other insignia Unofficial insignia Submarine verse of the Navy Hymn See also External links References https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submarines_in_the_United_States_Navy 3/24/2018 Submarines in the United States Navy - Wikipedia Page 2 of 13 Early History (1775–1914) There were various submersible projects in the 1800s.

  • Finding Joe Finch One Warm Summer Afternoon in 1941, Eighty Years Ago
    Finding Joe Finch One warm summer afternoon in 1941, eighty years ago, my parents took me out on a lake in a canoe, and I fell out. A young man paddling toward us with his fiancee instantly jumped into the water, even before my father could react, and he saved me. His name was Joe Finch. He was an officer in the U.S. Navy, home on furlough just before being shipped overseas. I was three years old and have no recollection of any of this. Twelve years later, in June 1953, my buddies and I celebrated our graduation from Hanley Junior High by riding our bicycles to St. Louis's Forest Park and canoeing on that same lake. When I shared this adventure with my dad the next day he told me, for the first time, the startling story of Joe Finch rescuing me, and how he and Mom then became friendly with Joe's parents who lived in University City, the same St. Louis suburb where we lived. Dad then added that eighteen months after Joe rescued me, my folks learned from Joe's parents that their son was killed when his ship, the USS Laffey, was sunk by the Japanese during the Naval Battle for Guadalcanal, in November 1942. Finding Joe Finch, p. 2 Only three months after I learned of Joe rescuing me, I began my sophomore year at University City Senior High School (UCHS) where I soon first saw the plaque listing the names of all 28 of those UCHS boys who were killed in WW II.

  • The Servicemen's Bulletin, Have Missed It Very Much Since I Left the States
    Between 1942 and 1945, the “Servicemen’s Bulletin” publisher, Ed Bell, received more than 100 letters each month from local Santiam Valley men and women stationed throughout the U.S., Europe and the Pacific. Their letters, along with items of local news, were shared in the Servicemen’s Bulletin, with some issues exceeding 50 pages. Due to the sheer volume of material, we have selected the following Bulletin excerpts to represent the varied experiences and perspectives of those who served, as well as what life was like on the Stayton- Sublimity home front 70 years ago. Sharon Barnes May 7, 2013 The Servicemen’s Bulletin - 1943 From Volume 1, No. 4, dated January 20, 1943: CORPORAL LEONARD LULAY from Virginia says “I’ve seen quite a bit of the good old U.S. this past year—the most interesting to me was a visit to Washington D.C. We spent over half a day in the Capitol building and still saw only a small part of it. And of course, here in Virginia there are many historical spots. To preserve these places and the ideals that those men of old dreamed of is pretty important.” PVT FLORENCE (Squeak) BEITEL writes from Alaska that “I am getting along swell. Plenty of the wrong kind of excitement. I am in Communications and like it. You remember years ago when a plane went over, everyone rushed out to look up and see it—well, it’s the old days again here, the sound of a plane means eyes up—believe you me.” PVT LEO SUSBAUER writes from sunny Florida that “This is the fifth camp I’ve been in since I entered the Army in May.

    reaching the limits of their search area, ENS Reid and his navigator, ENS Swan decided to push their search a little farther. When he spotted small specks in the distance, he promptly radioed Midway: “Sighted main body. Bearing 262 distance 700.” PBYs could carry a crew of eight or nine and were powered by two Pratt & Whitney R-1830-92 radial air-cooled engines at 1,200 horsepower each. The aircraft was 104 feet wide wing tip to wing tip and 63 feet 10 inches long from nose to tail. Catalinas were patrol planes that were used to spot enemy submarines, ships, and planes, escorted convoys, served as patrol bombers and occasionally made air and sea rescues. Many PBYs were manufactured in San Diego, but Reid’s aircraft was built in Canada. “Strawberry 5” was found in dilapidated condition at an airport in South Africa, but was lovingly restored over a period of six years. It was actually flown back to San Diego halfway across the planet – no small task for a 70-year old aircraft with a top speed of 120 miles per hour. The plane had to meet FAA regulations and was inspected by an FAA official before it could fly into US airspace.

  • U.S.-China Military Contacts: Issues for Congress
    U.S.-China Military Contacts: Issues for Congress Shirley A. Kan Specialist in Asian Security Affairs July 6, 2010 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL32496 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress U.S.-China Military Contacts: Issues for Congress Summary This CRS report, updated as warranted, discusses policy issues regarding military-to-military (mil-to-mil) contacts with the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and provides a record of major contacts and crises since 1993. The United States suspended military contacts with China and imposed sanctions on arms sales in response to the Tiananmen Crackdown in 1989. In 1993, the Clinton Administration re-engaged with the top PRC leadership, including China’s military, the People’s Liberation Army (PLA). Renewed military exchanges with the PLA have not regained the closeness reached in the 1980s, when U.S.-PRC strategic cooperation against the Soviet Union included U.S. arms sales to China. Improvements and deteriorations in overall bilateral relations have affected military contacts, which were close in 1997-1998 and 2000, but marred by the 1995-1996 Taiwan Strait crisis, mistaken NATO bombing of a PRC embassy in 1999, the EP- 3 aircraft collision crisis in 2001, and aggressive naval confrontations (including in 2009). In 2001, President Bush continued the policy of engagement with China, but the Pentagon skeptically reviewed and cautiously resumed mil-to-mil contacts. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, in 2002, resumed the Defense Consultative Talks (DCT) with the PLA (first held in 1997) and, in 2003, hosted General Cao Gangchuan, a Vice Chairman of the Central Military Commission (CMC) and Defense Minister.
