  • 1 Month of October in the City of Samarra by Themselves. They 2 Had the Most Contacts of Any Platoon in the Entire Battalion 3 and They Suffered No Casualties
    1 month of October in the city of Samarra by themselves. They 2 had the most contacts of any platoon in the entire battalion 3 and they suffered no casualties. There is no other platoon in 4 the battalion that can say that. He set up the first police 5 station in Balad and trained and monitored the Iraqis. 6 7 Balad was the geopolitical center of that region. It was 8 very unstable at the time and one of the hottest spots in Iraq. 9 Within a month we owned the city and built great relationships. 10 Subsequently, we spent a lot of money improving the 11 infrastructure. The periphery was mostly Sunni. Trying to 12 bring them into the government was difficult, but once we 13 controlled Balad and the city outlines, we controlled the 14 entire region. 15 16 Lieutenant Saville's platoon were the key to the success for 17 Alpha Company. He was put in for two bronze stars. His 18 rehabilitative potential is very high. He's very mature. He's 19 a faith-filled man, outstanding leader, outstanding officer and 20 he's earned the faith of his men. He's combat tested and he's 21 a man of integrity. I would take him anywhere, anytime. I'd 22 go to combat with him, I'.d stand by his side and I'd put my son 23 in his outfit if we were going back to war without thought. 24 25 CROSS-EXAMINATION 26 27 Questions by the trial counsel-Captain Schiffer: 28 29 The platoons were very autonomous because of the lack of 30 leadership in 1-66 Armor.

  • The Historical Magazine
    The Western Pennsylvania Historical Magazine Volume 34 December, 1951 Number 4 PUBLIC EDUCATIONINPITTSBURGH, 1835-195O 1 William D. McCoy concept of free compulsory public education in Pittsburgh dates back to the year 1682 when William Penn and a small Thegroup of Quakers drafted a code of laws for the establishment and government of the Colony of Pennsylvania which they were about to establish in America. Section 13 of this code read: "That all children within this province of the age of twelve years, shall be taught some use- ful trades or skill to the end none may be idle, that the poor may work tolive and the rich, if they become poor, may not want." A revision of this code two years later added a clause stipulating that a fine of five pounds must be paid by parents or guardians neglecting to comply with the law. Itrequired 150 years to establish public schools legally inPenn- sylvania, and 212 years to complete the original concept of free compul- sory public education. The long delay in the fulfillment of this great social movement was due, inlarge measure, to the Quakers themselves. From a downtrodden and ostracized class in England, they rose rapidly to positions of eco- nomic and political influence inPhiladelphia and the surrounding terri- i Presented at a meeting of the Historical Society of Western Pennsylvania onMarch 28, 1950. Inhis position as educational statis- tician of the Pittsburgh Board of Public Education for many years, Mr.McCoy made a comprehensive and intensive study of this subject and has compiled a complete, well-documented history, the first of its kind, of which this necessarily brief sketch is only an epitome.
