M. Brooks, Statistical Reporting Service, U.S. Dept. of Agriculture 1977 I FOREWORD The Statistical Reporting Service, as with any organization, needs to know its past to understand the present and appraise the future. Accordingly, our technical procedures are peri- ^odically set forth in ''Scope and Methods of the Statistical Reporting Service," and the agency's early development and program expansion were presented in "The Story of Agricultural Estimates." However, most important are the people who de- veloped this complex and efficient statistical service for agriculture and those who maintain and expand it today. Dr. Harry C. Trelogan, SRS Administrator, 1961-1975, arranged for Emerson M. Brooks to prepare this informal account of some of the people who steered SRS's course from 1933 to 1961. The series of biographical sketches selected by the author are representative of the people who helped develop the per- sonality of SRS and provide the talent to meet challenges for accurate and timely agricultural information. This narrative touching the critical issues of that period and the way they'^ were resolved adds to our understanding of the agency and helps maintain the esprit de corps that has strengthened our work since it started in 1862. Our history provides us some valuable lessons, for "those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." W.

  • Military Funeral Honors
    THE HISTORY OF MILITARY FUNERAL HONORS Maryland State Funeral Directors Association Online Course – 1.0 CEU October 2017 Credit approved and accepted by the Maryland Board of Morticians & Funeral Directors Course Objectives Our national tradition of honoring those who have served is never more in evidence than following the death of a military veteran or active duty soldier. The ceremonies of these funerals recall their accomplishments in life and demonstrate the Nation's recognition of a debt owed for their services. This course provides an overview of the history of Military Funeral Honors, traditions associated with Military Funeral Honors and information regarding the procedure for requesting honors. The History of Military Funeral Honors - Online Course 10-2017 2 Military Funeral Honors - Introduction On almost any day at cemeteries throughout the United States, a military ritual occurs that is both familiar and moving. An escort of honor comes to attention and presents arms. Next, a firing party fires three rifle volleys. After the briefest of moments, a bugler sounds Taps. The flag that has covered the casket is then folded into a triangle reminiscent of the cocked hat from the American Revolution. The flag is then presented to the next of kin on behalf of the president, the parent service of the deceased and a grateful nation. This is, of course, Military Funeral Honors, the ceremonial rendering of respect in a solemn and dignified manner. The History of Military Funeral Honors - Online Course 10-2017 3 From Modest to Elaborate… Long-standing military customs, various religious traditions and the wishes of the next of kin are the foundations of these ceremonies.

  • Military Funeral Traditions Military Customs the Final Farewell
    Military Funeral Traditions Military Customs The final farewell honoring individuals who have served in the Armed Forces is infused with ceremonial traditions that date back centuries. An understanding military burial customs gives greater meaning to the symbolic activities that may take place during the final resting of an active duty or retired member of the Armed Forces. The Flag Draped Casket The custom of draping the casket with the national flag dates back to the Napoleonic Wars when a flag was used to cover the dead who were being removed from the field of battle. When the U.S. flag covers the casket, it is placed so the union blue field is at the head and over the left shoulder. The flag is not allowed to touch the ground and is not placed in the grave. At the end of the funeral, the flag is removed and folded by the honor guard into triangular form. The highest-ranking officer then presents it to the spouse or next of kin. Three Rifle Volleys Over the Grave The use of three rifle volleys originated from the custom of halting warfare fighting to remove the dead from the battlefield. After each side had cleared its dead, a firing party, consisting of seven riflemen, would fire three volleys to signal that the dead had been cared for and the fighting could resume. The firing of three rifle volleys at a funeral possibly ties to this practice to signify respect for the deceased and his or her contributions to the military. This should not be confused with the 21-gun salute.

Other scholars highlighted the work done by the “President’s Committee on Equality and Opportunity in the Armed Services,” also known as the Fahy Committee, which was formed as a result of Order 9981. However, when the United States was compelled to take military action following the surprise attack by North Korean forces on June 25, 1950, the U.S. Army units sent into action in Korea were mostly composed of segregated units such as the all-black 24th Infantry Regiment.

Random House, $24.95 ISBN 679642730 Conquers on the Mississippi New York Times bestsellers At a time when presidential memoirs and presidential legacies dominate newscasts, talk shows, and what passes for historical analysis on television, it is perhaps fitting that we reflect on how much Americans really don't know about the eighteenth president of the United States, a man who wrote the most impressive autobiography ever penned by a former chief executive and whose own deathwatch and funeral were among the most moving events of the late 19th century. For Ulysses S. Grant has been in the news for the past month, sometimes in ways that typify the profound historical ignorance of precisely those people who claim that they possess some sort of expertise and historical insight into the American past. Take Charles Schumer, New York's senior United States senator, who moved that Ronald Reagan should displace Grant on the fifty dollar bill, because Grant was a butcher as a general and a stumbling ignoramus as president û perhaps next he'll propose bulldozing Grant's Tomb to provide a new stadium for the Yankees.

  • WALTER CRONKITE – IMAGE #5 While Visiting Dallas, Texas, on A
    WALTER CRONKITE – IMAGE #5 While visiting Dallas, Texas, on a political trip, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963. Three days later a devastated American nation watched the funeral cortege of its fallen leader. For two days the president’s body had remained lying in state at the Capitol rotunda in Washington, D.C., while mourners filed by his casket. It was now the morning of November 25, 1963. At 9:45 a.m. EST a United States Army squad brought the casket out of the Capitol. The president’s remains were placed on a horse-drawn caisson. That same wheeled vehicle had carried the remains of President Franklin D. Roosevelt as well as those of the Unknown Soldier. At 10:35 a.m. the long line of mourners paused in front of the White House.
