The Principal Investigator of the Dog and St. George Island Shipwreck Survey (DSGISS) was Dr. Michael Faught. His support, interest, and advice are greatly appreciated. Melanie Damour-Horrell and Christopher Horrell, as Co- Field Directors of the DSGISS, supported the Lanark Reef Survey and offered a great deal of advice as well. Marc Skeist served in the capacity of co-field director during the first two survey expeditions of the Lanark Reef Wreck. In addition, he co-authored the site report, and helped conduct the initial stages of archival research into LCM specifications. I would like to thank all of the crew members who accompanied the various survey operations of the Lanark Reef Wreck, they include: Anna Bakare, Norma Garcia, Pat Gensler, Anne Popplestone, Peter Kriz, Melanie Damour-Horrell, Marc Skeist, Pam Andras, Neal Engel, Bert Ho, Ron Grayson, Amanda Evans, Rachel Horlings, Kristin Klein, and Michael Faught. Chuck Meide and Rachel Horlings both provided information about previous surveys at the site, notes, and data. Dan Marelli, Mike Pomeroy, and Jeff Lane of FSU’s Academic Diving Program provided logistical support and input, as did the staff of the FSU Marine Lab. Linda Minichiello and David Butler of the Camp Gordon Johnston Association and Museum provided a great deal of information on LCM specifications and the history of Camp Gordon Johnston. They also introduced me to a number of Camp Gordon Johnston veterans who provided a slightly more emic viewpoint to my understanding of their training. A number of people provided their expertise to answer questions or assist in conducting archival research, these include; Dr. William Oldson and Joan Denman of the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience, Dr. Janie iii Wulf of the FSU Department of Biology, John Broadwater, Army Corps of Engineers Historian. Thanks to David Keith and especially Amanda Evans for countless hours spent editing. Finally, I would like to thank Dr’s. Cheryl Ward, Rochelle Marrinan, and Glen Doran for their advice, comments, and interest in serving on my committee. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS List of Tables ................................................................................................…… vi List of Figures ................................................................................................…… vii Abstract ......................................................................................................…… ix 1.

Despite their significance, they have rarely been analyzed in the archaeological record. This thesis presents a model used to help identify and evaluate a shipwreck site (8FR892) in Franklin County, Florida, home to Camp Gordon Johnston, a World War II Amphibious Training Center. The data on which the model is based was useful in assessing site 8FR892 and was successful in demonstrating that 8FR892 is not a LCM. The model considers pre-depositional, depositional, and post-depositional processes that may affect the condition of submerged steel-hulled vessels in a number of environments and therefore has applications to identify submerged LCM sites around the world. ix CHAPTER 1 ARCHAEOLOGY OF WORLD WAR II During the 2002 field season of the Dog and St. George Island Shipwreck Survey, the discovery of numerous World War II-era artifacts prompted further research into the archaeological potential of the region’s World War II heritage. One site in particular was expected to provide a great deal of information about World War II army training activities that took place in the area. This site was 8FR892, previously identified as a Landing Craft, Mechanized (LCM) (Meide et al. 2001). Allied LCMs were developed just prior to the war to conduct amphibious landings of troops, equipment, and vehicles on a defended enemy occupied beach. Despite the fact that numerous LCMs were lost during the war,

  • Out-Producing the Enemy: American Production During WWII
    “Out-Producing the Enemy” American Production During WWII The National WWII Museum 945 Magazine Street New Orleans, LA 70130 (504) 528-1944 www.nationalww2museum.org/learn/education © The National WWII Museum “Out-Producing the Enemy:” American Production During WWII Before the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and the United States entered WWII in December 1941, the American economy was still weak from The Great Depression. In 1939, the US unemployment rate was high at 17.2% and America’s military was small, ranking 18th largest in the world after the nation of Romania. A year before America’s entry into the war in 1940, Adolf Hitler, the Nazi leader of Germany, predicted that American war supplies would not be enough to help the Allies win the war. Hitler said that “an American intervention by mass deliveries of planes and war materials will not change the outcome of the war.” However, US president Franklin Delano Roosevelt was determined to prove Hitler and the Axis Powers wrong. Roosevelt told the American people that they must all work together to win the war because “powerful enemies must be out-fought and out-produced.” In this lesson, discover how the United States was able to out-produce all other countries during World War II and create a “production miracle.” Students will analyze and graph historical statistics, and use primary sources like photographs, quotes, and propaganda posters to explain how US production helped the Allies to win the war. OBJECTIVES: Students will be able to: Identify and analyze primary and secondary sources including quotes, photographs, and propaganda posters to learn about the American Home Front experience during WWII.

  • World War II Christmas Fact Sheet
    Manufacturing Victory: Who’s Who in WWII Production In order for America to wage a total war during WWII, it took an army of individuals on the Home Front to switch over factories from producing consumer goods to making war equipment for the US military. Below are a few of the men in American Industry who helped the country to achieve this goal. William Knudsen, CEO of General Motors: William Knudsen (1879-1948) came to the US as a poor immigrant from Denmark. He worked his way up the economic ladder by starting as a dockworker, and eventually became an assistant to Henry Ford, the automobile manufacturer. During his work at Ford, Chevrolet, and then as CEO of General Motors (GM) from 1937-1940, Knudsen revolutionized mass production by building more flexible and efficient production plants. In 1940, President Roosevelt selected Knudsen to lead the nation’s National Defense Advisory Council to prepare for war, and he became the first “Dollar-a Year-Man” by leaving his $300,000 a year job at GM to volunteer to direct the government industrial production effort. Knudsen made the Arsenal of Democracy possible as US Director of Production by simplifying government contracting and repayment procedures, making it easier for corporations to produce for the war effort. Albert Kahn, Industrial Architect: Albert Kahn (1869-1942) immigrated to the US from Germany and became one of the most famous industrial architects in the world. While building factories in Detroit, MI for the Packard and Ford Motor Companies, he pioneered the use of reinforced concrete in construction.
