Veteran Reserve Corps (VRC), 1863–1865
National Archives and Records Administration 700 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20408-0001 Veteran Reserve Corps (VRC), 1863–1865 War Department General Orders No. 105, issued by the Adjutant General’s Office on April 28, 1863, authorized the creation of the Veteran Reserve Corps (VRC) originally called the Invalid Corps. The Corps consisted of companies and battalions made up of officers and enlisted men unfit for active field service because of wounds or disease contracted in the line of duty, but still capable of performing garrison duty officers and enlisted men in service and on the Army rolls otherwise absent from duty and in hospitals, in convalescent camps, or otherwise under the control of medical officials, but capable of serving as cooks, clerks, orderlies, and guards at hospitals and other public buildings officers and enlisted men honorably discharged because of wounds or disease and who wanted to reenter the service The Invalid Corps was renamed the Veteran Reserve Corps on March 18, 1864. Confusion with the damaged goods stamp “I.C.” (inspected-condemned) affected volunteer morale. Compiled Military Service Records (CMSRs) In the 1890s, the Department of War used numerous sources, such as muster rolls, descriptive rolls, and pay rolls to create compiled military service records. These records generally show when a soldier joined a unit and if he was present when the unit was mustered.

Introduction to Army Leadership

All nations seek it constantly because it is the key to greatness — sometimes to survival. That intangible is the electric and elusive quality known as leadership. GEN Mark Clark 8420010_LT1_p002-015 8/14/08 1:31 PM Page 3 Introduction to Army Leadership ■ 3 Introduction As a junior officer in the US Army, you must develop and exhibit character—a combination of values and attributes that enables you to see what to do, decide to do it, and influence others to follow. You must be competent in the knowledge and skills required to do your job effectively. And you must take the proper action to accomplish your mission based on what your character tells you is ethically right and appropriate. This philosophy of Be, Know, Do forms the foundation of all that will follow in your career as an officer and leader. The Be, Know, Do philosophy applies to all Soldiers, no matter what Army branch, rank, background, or gender. SGT Leigh Ann Hester, a National Guard military police officer, proved this in Iraq and became the first female Soldier to win the Silver Star since World War II. Silver Star Leadership SGT Leigh Ann Hester of the 617th Military Police Company, a National Guard unit out of Richmond, Ky., received the Silver Star, along with two other members of her unit, for their actions during an enemy ambush on their convoy. -
The German Military and Hitler
RESOURCES ON THE GERMAN MILITARY AND THE HOLOCAUST The German Military and Hitler Adolf Hitler addresses a rally of the Nazi paramilitary formation, the SA (Sturmabteilung), in 1933. By 1934, the SA had grown to nearly four million members, significantly outnumbering the 100,000 man professional army. US Holocaust Memorial Museum, courtesy of William O. McWorkman The military played an important role in Germany. It was closely identified with the essence of the nation and operated largely independent of civilian control or politics. With the 1919 Treaty of Versailles after World War I, the victorious powers attempted to undercut the basis for German militarism by imposing restrictions on the German armed forces, including limiting the army to 100,000 men, curtailing the navy, eliminating the air force, and abolishing the military training academies and the General Staff (the elite German military planning institution). On February 3, 1933, four days after being appointed chancellor, Adolf Hitler met with top military leaders to talk candidly about his plans to establish a dictatorship, rebuild the military, reclaim lost territories, and wage war. Although they shared many policy goals (including the cancellation of the Treaty of Versailles, the continued >> RESOURCES ON THE GERMAN MILITARY AND THE HOLOCAUST German Military Leadership and Hitler (continued) expansion of the German armed forces, and the destruction of the perceived communist threat both at home and abroad), many among the military leadership did not fully trust Hitler because of his radicalism and populism. In the following years, however, Hitler gradually established full authority over the military. For example, the 1934 purge of the Nazi Party paramilitary formation, the SA (Sturmabteilung), helped solidify the military’s position in the Third Reich and win the support of its leaders. -
Service Values of the Armed Forces
THE ARMED FORCES OFFICER INTRODUCTION The Meaning of the Commission As an officer in the Armed Forces of the United States, you are a citizen-soldier, a warrior in the profession of arms, a member of a skilled profession, an unwavering defender of the Constitution and a servant of the nation. A leader of character, you accept unmitigated personal responsibility and accountability to duty, for your actions and those of your subordinates. You lead your service and defend the nation in seamless union with officers of all services. In so doing, you willingly take your place in an ancient and honorable calling, obligated equally to those who have gone before you, those you walk among, and those who will follow. “There is no greater demonstration of the trust of the Republic than in its expression and bestowal of an officer’s commission.”1 This trust involves the majesty of the nation’s authority in matters involving the lives and deaths of its citizens. That this particular trust most often is first directed on men and women of no particular experience in life, leadership, or war, elevates the act to a supreme occasion of faith as well. Accepting an officer’s commission in the armed forces is a weighty matter, carrying a corresponding burden of practical and moral responsibility. The officer must live up to this responsibility each day he or she serves. In 1950, the Office of the Secretary of Defense published a small handbook with a dark blue cover titled simply, The Armed Forces Officer.2 Journalist-historian Brigadier General (Army Reserve) S. -
Provided Below Is Information for the Transportation of Firearms and Ammunition for Airline Travel
Provided below is information for the transportation of firearms and ammunition for airline travel. AS STATED IN JULY 2008 Most airlines have provided a link to the specific web pages for Baggage Allowances, Carry-on Baggage information, Firearms and Ammunition, Restricted Articles and Specialty Items of which can include but is not limited to antlers, game meats and fishing equipment. The TSA website is truly the end all be all for airline travel regulations. Canadian and European transportation agencies have essentially the same regulations and generally defer some of their information to the TSA. Before starting any research for your flight it is imperative that you thoroughly look at the TSA website because they have the broadest amount of information and they are the supreme authority. When traveling internationally, here are three issues by most if not all of the airline carriers: 1) The airlines have stated that their policy for transporting firearms is the same for both domestic and international flights. 2) They advise that you call the airline desk at your departure airport to inform them that you are flying with a firearm and to get the most up-to-date information on procedures at that airport. 3) If you are transferring from one airline to another, it is imperative for you to call the second airline to check if they have any additional regulations, especially if your transfer is in an international airport. There may be additional permits or procedures to be processed prior to your arrival. 4) Certain temporary visitor permits are required if you are planning on staying overnight in an international location that is not your final destination. -

Embroidery Industry and Rural Revitalization Strategy in Ashima's
Embroidery Industry and Rural Revitalization Strategy in Ashima’s Hometown Liu Ting Yunnan Academy of Social Sciences With cultural system reform and cultural industry development, embroidery industry in Stone Forest area has gradually become a scale industry, with obvious impacts on farmers’ income. This tangible benefit therefore has become new drive to push forward for the overall rural revitalization strategy in China. Keywords: Embroidery Industry, Rural Revitalization Strategy Stone Forest, hometown of Ashima, is one of the 10 trial counties declared as cultural industry construction site by Yunnan Provincial Committee and Government. Driven by tourism and tobacco industry, rural economy has accelerated rapidly. However, as a typical mountainous or half- mountainous agricultural county with 88.5% agricultural population, its industrial structure is still characterized by weak infrastructure construction. The cultural quality as a whole in the county needs improvement, and how to increase farmer’s income is still the biggest challenge for the construction of socialist new rural areas. In recent years, together with cultural system reform and cultural industry development, embroidery industry in Stone Forest area has gradually become a scale industry, with obvious impact on raising farmers’ income. This tangible benefit therefore has become new drive to push forward for overall socialist rural revitalization strategy.
