United States Navy and World War I: 1914–1922
Cover: During World War I, convoys carried almost two million men to Europe. In this 1920 oil painting “A Fast Convoy” by Burnell Poole, the destroyer USS Allen (DD-66) is shown escorting USS Leviathan (SP-1326). Throughout the course of the war, Leviathan transported more than 98,000 troops. Naval History and Heritage Command 1 United States Navy and World War I: 1914–1922 Frank A. Blazich Jr., PhD Naval History and Heritage Command Introduction This document is intended to provide readers with a chronological progression of the activities of the United States Navy and its involvement with World War I as an outside observer, active participant, and victor engaged in the war’s lingering effects in the postwar period. The document is not a comprehensive timeline of every action, policy decision, or ship movement. What is provided is a glimpse into how the 20th century’s first global conflict influenced the Navy and its evolution throughout the conflict and the immediate aftermath. The source base is predominately composed of the published records of the Navy and the primary materials gathered under the supervision of Captain Dudley Knox in the Historical Section in the Office of Naval Records and Library. A thorough chronology remains to be written on the Navy’s actions in regard to World War I. The nationality of all vessels, unless otherwise listed, is the United States. All errors and omissions are solely those of the author.

Preservation, Education, and Commemoration Vol. 53, No. 1 Fall-Winter 2013/2014 PULL TOGETHER Newsletter of the Naval Historical Foundation An AEGIS Legacy: Wayne Meyer’s History War Rooms, Page 3 Remembering September 16, 2013. Page 6 Also in the issue: Olympia update, pp. 9–10 ; Navy Museum News, pp. 12–13; Naval History News, pp. 14–16; News from the NHF, pp. 17–20; Remembering Rear Admiral Kane pp. 22-23. Message From the Chairman Last month, you received the Foundation’s year-end appeal from our president, Rear Adm. John Mitchell. If you sent your donations earlier this year, or in response to this appeal, thank you! For those of you contemplating a gift, I hope you’ll refl ect on our successes in “preserving and honoring the legacy of those who came before us; educating and inspiring the generations who will follow.” We’ve got much left to do, and your support makes all the difference. This is a great time to make that tax-deductible donation or IRA distribution direct to NHF! The year-end appeal featured a 1948 letter from then-NHF Vice President Fleet Adm. Chester W. Nimitz to then-NHF President Fleet Adm. Ernest J. King referring to the budget and political woes encountered 65 years ago in the nation’s capital: “I, for one, am glad to be away from that trouble spot….” Yet despite the challenges King faced, including a series of debilitating strokes, he remained strongly committed to growing the NHF and educating the American public about this nation’s great naval heritage. -

Spring 2016 ● Vol
2016 Spring Edition The Newport Commandery is proud to announce that on 5 March 2016, Naval War College historian and professor John B. Hattendorf was awarded a Doctor of Letters (D.Litt.) degree from the University of Oxford, England. The degree is considered above the Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) or Doctor of Education (Ed.D.). It is issued on the basis of high achievement in the respective field or a long record of research and publication to candidates whose record of published work and research shows conspicuous ability and originality and constitutes a distinguished and sustained achievement. The Naval Order has been invited to honor our Historian General, Professor John Hattendorf, on his impending retirement from the Naval War College by subscribing to a book Strategy and the Sea published by Boydell & Brewer. For those of us who are new to the publishing world’s terminology, the word “festschrift” is a volume of learned articles and essays contributed to an edited work by the colleagues and admirers of a scholar, generally as a tribute upon retirement. A “tabula gratulatoria” is a page in that volume that contains the names of people who have contributed either by writing a chapter of the volume, or by helping fund the effort. Each commandery can have its name printed in the tabula by subscribing to the book. Individuals in the commandery can also have their names printed by purchasing their own copy of the book. This book would make a lovely gift for speakers or commandery raffles. John B. Hattendorf is the Ernest J. -

Just 4 weeks later, the regime was removed and most of Iraq was under coalition control. The success of the military campaign owed much to the determination and professionalism of the coalition’s Armed Forces and the civilians who supported them. I regret that, during the course of combat operations and subsequently, a number of Service personnel lost their lives. Their sacrifice will not be forgotten. The UK is playing a full part in the re-building of Iraq through the establishment of conditions for a stable and law-abiding Iraqi government. This process will not be easy after years of repression and neglect by a brutal regime. Our Armed Forces are performing a vital and dangerous role by contributing to the creation of a secure environment so that normal life can be resumed, and by working in support of humanitarian organisations to help the Iraqi people. -
