(NS0311016).

  • Fort Jackson (1808 – 1861)
    General History of Fort Jackson To understand the history of Fort Jackson, we must realize that the land surrounding the fort today is far different from what it was when European first saw the Savannah River. The river flowed through many marshy fields resembling a flat plain. The appearance of the area caused the founder of Georgia, General James Edward Oglethorpe, to name the river and town “Savannah,” meaning a treeless plain or relatively flat, open region. When early Indians built large ceremonial mounds near the river, they could not find dry land to build on closer than a mile from the river. One set of these mounds was located about 1600 yards southwest of the future site of Fort Jackson. No doubt General Oglethorpe noticed these mounds as he searched for high ground for his settlement in 1733. As the river flowed around present-day Hutchinson’s Island, the two channels rejoined north of a small clay island which rose just a few feet above the water at high tide. The convergence of these channels created a deepening to about 30 feet, more than ten feet deeper than normal. This part of the river became known as Five Fathom Hole. A few years later, an illiterate brick mason named Thomas Salter chose a site for a brickyard three miles east of the city on the south bank of the Savannah River where he hoped to earn a good living making bricks for housing foundations. The spot he chose was actually the small clay island. The brick-making trade was one of intense hand labor and has not changed in hundreds of years.

  • The Precision-Information Revolution in Military Affairs and the Limits of Technology
    Chapter 16 The Precision-Information Revolution in Military Affairs and The Limits of Technology Peter R. Mansoor On September 9, 1943, the Italian battleship Roma was making its way south towards Malta and the safety of Allied air cover. While traversing the Strait of Bonifacio between Sardinia and Corsica, the ship and its escorts came un- der attack from a specially trained German air squadron equipped with a new weapon: the Fritz X guided bomb. Six Dornier Do 217 aircraft, each carrying two bombs, flew over the Italian flotilla at an altitude of 5,500 meters. Shortly after 3:30 pm, the Germans attacked. The Roma and its escorts fired back and took evasive action, but to no avail. German bombardiers guided bombs onto the Roma and Italia, causing them to lose speed and drop out of formation. Shortly before 4 pm another Fritz X penetrated the Roma and detonated in- side the forward engine room. The forward magazine exploded, causing cata- strophic damage to the ship. In a matter of minutes the Roma capsized and sank, taking 1,253 of her crew with her to a watery grave.1 Two days later on the morning of September 11, 1943, the Brooklyn-class light cruiser uss Savannah was positioned in the Bay of Salerno, supporting U.S. ground troops ashore with naval gunfire. The ship was being tracked from 5,700 meters overhead by a Dornier Do 217 aircraft, which released a Fritz X bomb to- wards it. The bombardier guided the bomb onto the roof of the Savannah’s No.

  • Sailing Under False Colors
    -1- Sailing under False Colors It must be assumed that blockade runners will attempt to scuttle. Ensure that boarding party includes someone who will be able to recognize and know where to search for data concerning or evidence of navigation routes taken by runners. This information [is] highly important and will require quick action to obtain. —Commander Task Group 23.1 report of the interception and destruction of the German blockade runner Karin.1 Photo 1-1 German blockade runner MV Karin aflame from fires, set by her crew before they abandoned ship, after being stopped in the South Atlantic by two units of the United States Fourth Fleet—the light cruiser USS Savannah (CL-42) and the destroyer Eberle (DD-430). A short time later, delayed-detonation scuttling charges exploded, killing all but three members of a boarding party from the Eberle attempting to salvage the vessel. The painting is by Richard DeRosset. Adolf Hitler invaded Poland in September 1939, following which Britain and France declared war on Germany, and established a sea blockade of that country. Because the German Navy initially lacked the strength to challenge the combined British Royal Navy and French Navy for command of the sea, it adopted a strategy relying on commerce raiding using capital ships, armed merchant cruisers, submarines and aircraft. The German ships used to prey on merchant shipping became known as “raiders.” These ships interdicted Allied commerce and denuded the British and French fleets of the many warships needed to try to locate and destroy them on the world’s oceans.
