  • The Submarine Chaser Training Center Downtown Miami’S International Graduate School of Anti-Submarine Warfare During World War II
    The Submarine Chaser Training Center Downtown Miami’s International Graduate School Of Anti-Submarine Warfare During World War II Charles W. Rice Our purpose is like the Concord light. A continuous vigil at sea. Protecting ships front submarines, To keep our country free.1 The British freighter Umtata slowly lumbered north, hugging the Dade Count}’ coast during the humid South Florida night of July 7, 1942. Backlit by the loom of Miami s lights, she made an irresistible target for German Kapitanleutnant Helmut Mohlntann as he squinted through the lens of Unterseeboot-5~l's periscope. W hen the doomed freighter was fixed in its crosshairs, Mohlntann shouted, “Fire!” The sudden vibration of his stealthy death ship was followed by an immediate hissing sound as the E-7 electric eel escaped its firing tube through a swirl of compressed air bubbles. The U-boat skipper and his hydrophone operator carefully timed the torpedo’s run, while the men hopefully waited for the blast sig­ naling the demise of yet another victim of Admiral Karl Donitz's “Operation Drumbeat.” Within seconds, a tremendous explosion rewarded their hopes as the star-crossed merchant vessel erupted into a huge billowing fireball.- Millions of gallons of crude oil. gasoline and other petroleum prod­ ucts desperately needed in the Allied war effort were being shipped up the Florida coast in tankers from Texas, Venezuela, Aruba and Curacao to New Jersey and New York ports. From those staging areas, tankers and freighters carrying oil and munitions combined in convovs traveling east across the North Atlantic to the British Isles.

    World War I and the Invention of American Intelligence, 1878 - 1918 by Mark Stout Submitted in accordance with the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. The University of Leeds School of History Leeds, United Kingdom June, 2010 The candidate confirms that the work submitted is his own and that appropriate credit has been given where reference has been made to the work of others. This copy has been supplied on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. Acknowledgements PhD. dissertations often blight the lives of their authors. Such was not the case here. Many people deserve credit for this fact. First among them is Professor David Alvarez for giving me the original idea. I would never have thought of it. Thank you. Secondly, of course, thanks to my adviser Professor John Gooch. It was an honor and a privilege to work under his tutelage. It has also been delightful to study at Leeds where I lived as an 8 year old while my father was a visiting member of the faculty. Thanks are also due to Dr. Wick Murray for repeatedly telling me to hurry up and for providing various other forms of help. Thank you also to Mark Whisler for pointing me toward important resources when I was just starting on this project. At various times Michael Warner, John Fox, and John Schindler also did the same. I further owe thanks to John Schindler for introducing me to Professor John Ferris. Schindler, Ferris and I, in various combinations, had several stimulating and useful discussions of intelligence, typically over beer.
