Every day, newscasters describe wars, assassinations, economic developments, and political events from around the world. Additionally, numerous educational programs and tele- vision specials, often designed in part for entertainment, bring bits and pieces of history into our living rooms. Because of the recent boom in the home video market, the availability and variety of these audiovisual support materials has never been greater. One 1985-86 directory lists over 4,500 commercial firms that produce or distribute some type of audiovisual product. This growing body of audiovisual materials constitutes a unique and significant source of military history documentation. The Combat Studies Institute developed this bibliography of historical films, videotapes, motion pictures, and related audio- visual aids to support the TRADOC Military History Education Program. Instructors at the ROTC and branch service schools have indicated a growing interest and need to use audiovisual materials to enhance their military history classes. Unfortunately, most instructors do not have ready access to the rapidly expand- ing lists of. available materials. This index attempts to overcome part of that problem by bringing together selected government and commercially produced materials in an easy-to-use format. However, this bibliography, which relies heavily on the Depart- ment of Defense Audiovisual Information System, lists only a small part of the available commercial materials. Several words of caution are necessary when considering the commercial films identified in this listing: * Like all commercial products, films cost money. Rental prices range from $50 to $100 for a three- to five-day period, and purchase costs can be several hundred dollars. Your local funds must be used to procure these items. * Your local training and audiovisual support center (TASC) is the governing agency for the procurement of all films, com- mercial or government produced. Specific procedures have been established to govern film procurement, and the TASC is your point of contact. * One valuable source for films that is often overlooked is local university or college libraries. Many film rental libraries have been established across the country that rent video tapes vii and l&mm films at reasonable rates. But

  • Winds of Change Are Normally Characterised by the Distinctive Features of a Geographical Area
    Department of Military History Rekkedal et al. Rekkedal The various forms of irregular war today, such as insurgency, counterinsurgency and guerrilla war, Winds of Change are normally characterised by the distinctive features of a geographical area. The so-called wars of national liberation between 1945 and the late On Irregular Warfare 1970s were disproportionately associated with terms like insurgency, guerrilla war and (internal) Nils Marius Rekkedal et al. terrorism. Use of such methods signals revolutionary Publication series 2 | N:o 18 intentions, but the number of local and regional conflict is still relatively high today, almost 40 years after the end of the so-called ‘Colonial period’. In this book, we provide some explanations for the ongoing conflicts. The book also deals, to a lesser extent, with causes that are of importance in many ongoing conflicts – such as ethnicity, religious beliefs, ideology and fighting for control over areas and resources. The book also contains historical examples and presents some of the common thoughts and theories concerning different forms of irregular warfare, insurgencies and terrorism. Included are also a number of presentations of today’s definitions of military terms for the different forms of conflict and the book offer some information on the international military-theoretical debate about military terms.

  • Ethan Allen to Guy Carleton, Lord Dorchester, Quebec 16 July 17881
    Ethan Allen to Guy Carleton, Lord Dorchester, Quebec 16 July 17881 My Lord. I have the honor of addressing your Lordship, on the subject of American politics, as it may respect the reciprocal interest of Great Britain, and the little rising State of Vermont. Your Lordship is undoubtedly sensible of the Jealousy of the United States over Vermont, since it is not and will not be confederated with them. They proceed so far as to threaten its subjugation, as soon as they have established their new proposed constitution and made their government sufficiently energetic. Their arguements for so doing, (in 1 Printed: Duffy, Allen, I, 273–75. The severely damaged manuscript is in the Henry Stevens Collection in the Vermont State Archives. Allen (1738– 1789), a revolutionary and military leader, was a native of Connecticut. In 1770 he moved with his brothers to the New Hampshire Grants in the Green Mountains, where he formed the Green Mountain Boys to challenge New York’s jurisdiction over the territory. In 1775 he led the Green Mountain Boys in capturing Fort Ticonderoga. The Second Continental Congress gave him command of the Green Mountain Regiment in the Continental Army, but political enemies took the command from him. During the invasion of Canada in 1775, Allen was taken prisoner by the British and endured considerable hardships in prison. In 1778 the British released him, largely through the efforts of his family. From 1778 to 1784 he was commander-in-chief of Vermont’s military forces and political advisor to Governor Thomas Chittenden. From 1778 to 1781 he tried to convince Congress to grant statehood to Vermont; failing in that he sought annexation to the British Empire.

I had not worked with Dr. Hagemann before this process; she took a chance on me by becoming my advisor. I thought that I would be unable to pursue an honors thesis. By being my advisor, she made this experience possible. Her interest and dedication to my work exceeded my expectations. My thesis greatly benefited from her input. Thank you, Dr. Hagemann, for your generosity with your time and genuine interest in this thesis and its success. Thank you to Dr. Fitz Brundage for his helpful comments and willingness to be my second reader. I would also like to thank Dr. Michelle King for her valuable suggestions and support throughout this process. I am very grateful for Dr. Hagemann and Dr. King. Thank you both for keeping me motivated and believing in my work. Thank you to my roommates, Julia Wunder, Waverly Leonard, and Jamie Antinori, for being so supportive. They understood when I could not be social and continued to be there for me. They saw more of the actual writing of this thesis than anyone else. Thank you for being great listeners and wonderful friends. Thank you also to my parents, Joe and Krista Brady, for their unwavering encouragement and trust in my judgment.
