    Historical Analysis of Chemical Warfare in World War I for Understanding the Impact of Science and Technology An Interactive Qualifying Project submitted to the faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science By Cory Houghton John E. Hughes Adam Kaminski Matthew Kaminski Date: 2 March 2019 Report Submitted to: David I. Spanagel Worcester Polytechnic Institute This report represents the work of one or more WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of completion of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its web site without editorial or peer review. For more information about the projects program at WPI see http://www.wpi.edu/Academics/Projects ii Acknowledgements Our project team would like to express our appreciation to the following people assisted us with our project: ● Professor David Spanagel, our project advisor, for agreeing to advise our IQP and for helping us throughout the whole process. ● Amy Lawton, Head of the Access Services at Gordon Library, for helping us set up and plan our exhibit at Gordon Library. ● Arthur Carlson, Assistant Director of the Gordon Library, for helping us set up and plan our exhibit as well as helping us with archival research. ● Jake Sullivan, for helping us proofread and edit our main research document. ● Justin Amevor, for helping us to setup and advertise the exhibit. iii Abstract Historians categorize eras of human civilization by the technologies those civilizations possessed, and so science and technology have always been hand in hand with progress and evolution. Our group investigated chemical weapon use in the First World War because we viewed the event as the inevitable result of technology outpacing contemporary understanding.

  • A World War I Remembrance
    WORLD WAR I ARMISTICE DAY CENTENNIAL Sacred Service NOVEMBER 11, 2018 WASHINGTON NATIONAL CATHEDRAL WORLD WAR I ARMISTICE DAY CENTENNIAL Sacred Service NOVEMBER 11, 2018 WASHINGTON NATIONAL CATHEDRAL WW1 100 THE UNITED STATES YEARS WORLD WAR ONE CENTENNIAL COMMISSION Bells of Peace: A World War I Remembrance The United States World War I Centennial Commission launched a nationwide effort calling on Americans to toll bells across our country today, exactly one hundred years after the armistice, to honor the sacrifices of our fellow Americans in the Great War. Beginning at precisely 1100 EST, Washington National Cathedral’s bourdon bell will toll 21 times. It will be joined by bells in communities across the East Coast and will continue during the Eleventh Hour of the Eleventh Day of the Eleventh Month in each time zone of the United States. Participants include places of worship, schools, town halls, carillons, cemeteries, and local DAR, VFW and American Legion posts across the country. Additionally, all United States Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force and Coast Guard installations, as well as Naval and Coast Guard ships at port and at sea, will toll their bells at the Eleventh Hour of this day to honor those who wore the uniform one hundred years ago. To Inspire the Future by Remembering our Past One hundred years ago, bells from steeples perched all over the world rang out in relief and joy, sorrow and hope, at news of the great Armistice. The war was over, but the hard work of peace lay ahead. Families, homes, and cities lay in ruins.

  • November at the Museum!
    November at the Museum! The Irish National War Memorial, Islandbridge, Dublin. November - time to reflect and give thanks while preparing for Christmas. This November is the 101st anniversary of the end of World War I. Most Irish people would be surprised to learn that an estimated 200,000 Irishmen served in the British army, with over 30,000 dying during the war. The men came from both the catholic and protestant communities on the island, as well as from the Irish diaspora communities of countries from across the British Empire and many other thousands of Irish heritage who fought in the uniform of the United States. The Irishmen who fought in the first world war were officially forgotten in post- independence Ireland. The end of the war coincided with a changed political climate. Redmond's call for men to enlist at Woodenbridge 20 September 1914, claiming that "the interests of Ireland - of the whole of Ireland - are at stake in this war," was rewarded with just six seats from 105 for the Irish party at the 1918 election. Home Rule was dead. The militant nationalism expressed by Sinn Fein was in the ascendancy. All had changed, changed utterly. The armistice that ended World War One was signed just outside Paris in the early morning of 11 November 1918. To allow news of the armistice to spread across the battlefields of Europe the moment of the actual end of the fighting was pegged for 11 am that day. Fighting continued, on a small and localized scale, right through the morning and until the 11 am ceasefire.

  • An AEF Battlefield Guide by Michael E
    An AEF Battlefield Guide By Michael E. Hanlon, Editor/Publisher American Soldiers Flooding into the St. Mihiel Salient, Depicted in Beyond Seicheprey, by Capt. J. Andre Smith, This guidebook has been inspired by some things I've experienced during my over quarter-century study of the First World War. I made my first tour of the Western Front in 1990 and was amazed how different the battlefields looked in person, and how what I saw changed my thinking about what had transpired there. Simply reading about the battles, I found, was both insufficient for understanding them and, at times, deceptive. I came back home determined to share these insights. This led me to a secondary career as a battlefield tour leader—a job I've had off and on since. Since both my personal interest and that of my group of travelers—nearly exclusively Yanks— are strongly focused on the American experience in the war, I've made many trips to the U.S. battlefields. My groups are heavily made up of well-read Great War buffs, but what they have read about America's battles in the war are either sketchy or go out of their way to underplay the U.S. involvement in the war. Consequently, they are always surprised by the number of the Doughboys' battlefields, their size, and their wide spread from Flanders to the Vosges mountains. This guidebook is intended to help readers get sense of the scope of the nation's war effort and to keep the names, dates, locations and basic details about the AEF's major battles sorted out.

  • About the German Society of Maryland
    ABOUT THE GERMAN SOCIETY OF MARYLAND The German Society of Maryland was founded in 1783, 6 years before George Washington was inaugurated President of the United States. It applied to the General Assembly of Maryland for incorporation and the legislature enacted a law incorporating The German Society of Maryland in 1818. It served to assist immigrants from German speaking areas of Europe. Those areas included the four German Kingdoms of Prussia, Westphalia, Bavaria, Baden-Wurttemberg, as well as more than a hundred lesser sovereign entities, which in 1870 joined together to form the German Empire, now the Federal Republic of Germany. It also included German speaking areas of France, Switzerland, Austria, Poland and even Russia. The story of the German Society has been told in its 1909 history by Louis P. Hennighausen, and the 1958 Pioneers in Service written by Klaus G. Wust. Its history for the past 60 years has yet to be written. The mission statement of the German Society reads as follows: “The purpose of the German Society of Maryland is to preserve and promote the German heritage and traditions through educational, social and benevolent programs and to develop the unity and continuity of the German American community in the State of Maryland.” The German Society consists of about 600 members. It is governed by a Board of Directors which meets quarterly and by an Executive Committee which meets 8 or more times per year. For the past 25 years, the German Society has promoted the study of German language by high School students, by awarding $5,000.00 per year for distribution among those Maryland students scoring in the top 10 percent in the National German Examination.

  • Where Are They Buried?
    Where are they buried? By George P. Matysek Jr. [email protected] Founders of religious communities, prominent lay Catholics, philanthropists and church leaders are among the many Catholics whose final resting places are located within the Archdiocese of Baltimore. Many know that Archbishop John Carroll, the first Catholic bishop in the United States, is entombed beside other bishops in the crypt at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Baltimore. The Cathedral of Mary Our Queen in Homeland is the final resting place for spiritual shepherds including Cardinal Lawrence Shehan and Archbishop William D. Borders. There are also lesser-known Catholics who have made an impact throughout the generations and whose tombs may be visited by the public. In anticipation of All Souls’ Day, Nov. 2, the Catholic Review takes a walk through some of the area cemeteries and places of worship. Catherine Ruth For nearly a century, the earthly remains of the mother of baseball’s most famous player rested in an unmarked grave at Most Holy Redeemer Cemetery in Baltimore. Catherine Ruth, mother of George Herman “Babe” Ruth Jr., finally received her due in 2008, when a headstone was erected with the financial support of the Babe Ruth Museum in Baltimore. Born in 1873, Catherine Ruth was the mother of seven children – only two of whom survived. According to research completed by Paul Harris Sr., a local author and Ruth expert, she had Babe Ruth baptized at St. Peter the Apostle in Baltimore. The troublesome child was later admitted to St.
