Anderson (then S/Sgt.) distinguished himself by conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in action while serving as chief of section in Battery A, against a hostile force. During the early morning hours Battery A’s defensive position was attacked by a determined North Vietnamese Army infantry unit supported by heavy mortar, recoilless-rifle, rocket-propelled-grenade and automatic-weapons fire. The initial enemy onslaught breached the battery defensive perimeter. Sfc. Anderson, with complete disregard for his personal safety, mounted the exposed parapet of his howitzer position and became the mainstay of the defense of the bat- tery position. Sfc. Anderson directed devastating direct howitzer fire on the assaulting enemy while provid- ing rifle and grenade defensive fire against enemy soldiers attempting to overrun his gun section position. While protecting his crew and directing their fire against the enemy from his exposed position, two enemy grenades exploded at his feet knocking him dow and severely wounding him in the legs. Despite the excru- ciating pain and though not able to stand, Sfc. Anderson valorously propped himself on the parapet and continued to direct howitzer fire upon the closing enemy and to encourage his men to fight on.

  • South Dakota History
    VOL. 41, NO. 1 SPRING 2011 South Dakota History 1 Index to South Dakota History, Volumes 1–40 (1970–2010) COMPILED BY RODGER HARTLEY Copyright 2011 by the South Dakota State Historical Society, Pierre, S.Dak. 57501-2217 ISSN 0361-8676 USER’S GUIDE Over the past forty years, each volume (four issues) of South Dakota History has carried its own index. From 1970 to 1994, these indexes were printed separately upon comple- tion of the last issue for the year. If not bound with the volume, as in a library set, they were easily misplaced or lost. As the journal approached its twenty-fifth year of publica- tion, the editors decided to integrate future indexes into the back of every final issue for the volume, a practice that began with Volume 26. To mark the milestone anniversary in 1995, they combined the indexes produced up until that time to create a twenty-five-year cumulative index. As the journal’s fortieth anniversary year of 2010 approached, the need for another compilation became clear. The index presented here integrates the past fifteen volume indexes into the earlier twenty-five-year cumulative index. While indexers’ styles and skills have varied over the years, every effort has been made to create a product that is as complete and consistent as possible. Throughout the index, volume numbers appear in bold-face type, while page numbers are in book-face. Within the larger entries, references to brief or isolated pas- sages are listed at the beginning, while more extensive references are grouped under the subheadings that follow.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The authors and the project team would like to thank several people who worked with us to make this history possible. General Michael Walsh, Division Engineer (2004-2006), initiated this project, which was championed for completion under one of his successors, General Todd Semonite. Rob Holland worked tirelessly to turn General Walsh’s ideas into reality. Rob spent many hours discussing ideas with us to help develop the themes necessary to organize and understand the missions and operations of the South Atlantic Division. We also want to acknowledge the tremendous help we received from current and retired Corps officials, both military and civilian. We interviewed Generals and Colonels, and senior civilian officials from SAD as well as from the districts. All of these individuals were unfailingly generous with their time and helpful in explaining many of the complex programs administered by the agency. Their recorded and transcribed interviews are now part of the historical record of SAD. iii iv PERSONS INTERVIEWED FOR THIS WORK Division Engineers Gen. Philip Anderson Gen. Robert Bunker Gen.

The name Beaufort-or, as it came to America, Beauford-is French, and as a family name extremely rare, being essentially a place name. Meaning "beau­ tiful fort or castle," it grew into a family name during the eleventh and twelfth centuries, from the ownership of such places, the lords or masters being spoken of as "de Beaufort," of, or belonging to, the beautiful castle. The given names of both the English and American families-such as John, Thomas, William, Richard, and Robert-are Norman and came to England with the Northmen.
