Dawson, III This dissertation provides analysis on several areas of study related to the history of the United States Marine Corps in the Civil War Era. One element scrutinizes the efforts of Commandant Archibald Henderson to transform the Corps into a more nimble and professional organization. Henderson's initiatives are placed within the framework of the several fundamental changes that the U.S. Navy was undergoing as it worked to experiment with, acquire, and incorporate new naval technologies into its own operational concept.

  • Rules and Options
    Rules and Options The author has attempted to draw as much as possible from the guidelines provided in the 5th edition Players Handbooks and Dungeon Master's Guide. Statistics for weapons listed in the Dungeon Master's Guide were used to develop the damage scales used in this book. Interestingly, these scales correspond fairly well with the values listed in the d20 Modern books. Game masters should feel free to modify any of the statistics or optional rules in this book as necessary. It is important to remember that Dungeons and Dragons abstracts combat to a degree, and does so more than many other game systems, in the name of playability. For this reason, the subtle differences that exist between many firearms will often drop below what might be called a "horizon of granularity." In D&D, for example, two pistols that real world shooters could spend hours discussing, debating how a few extra ounces of weight or different barrel lengths might affect accuracy, or how different kinds of ammunition (soft-nosed, armor-piercing, etc.) might affect damage, may be, in game terms, almost identical. This is neither good nor bad; it is just the way Dungeons and Dragons handles such things. Who can use firearms? Firearms are assumed to be martial ranged weapons. Characters from worlds where firearms are common and who can use martial ranged weapons will be proficient in them. Anyone else will have to train to gain proficiency— the specifics are left to individual game masters. Optionally, the game master may also allow characters with individual weapon proficiencies to trade one proficiency for an equivalent one at the time of character creation (e.g., monks can trade shortswords for one specific martial melee weapon like a war scythe, rogues can trade hand crossbows for one kind of firearm like a Glock 17 pistol, etc.).

In 1858, the Marine Corps discontinued the Mameluke sword and adopted the 1858 Cavalry Sword. However, this was not a popular decision and during the Civil War, officers reverted back to the Mameluke Sword. For centuries, the sword has been a symbol of leadership and authority. But it had always been an officer’s weapon. When the Commandant gave the Mameluke Sword back to the officers, he decided to present the 1858 Cavalry Sword 0103H-1 (to become known as the NCO Sword) to Marine NCO’s in recognition of the part they play in leading Marines in combat.

  • Early Marine Corps Swords
    cureton_110_133 9/29/06 3:14 PM Page 110 Early Marine Corps Swords Dr. Charles Cureton The subject of early Marine Corps swords is so shrouded in myth that it has blinded historians and collectors as to their actual history to this day. Every Marine recruit is taught that the officer’s Mameluke came into use with the presentation of a jeweled Mameluke saber to First Lieutenant Presley O’Bannon by Hamet Karamanli after the legendary campaign against Derna in 1805. The story goes that the sword was so popular was this sword that every Marine officer had to have one. The style consequently came into widespread use, so much so that American Mameluke sabers that predate the reg- ulation 1826 model are considered by historians and collec- tors to have Marine Corps association or are rationalized as being unofficial deviations from the official pattern, the latter a direct reflection of our independent American spirit. United States and the known history of Presley O’Bannon Admittedly, the Mameluke saber was and is an exotic having carried one makes it easy for us to want every and attractive design (Figure 1). Its relative rarity in the Mameluke to be Marine Corps. It also helps us in our igno- rance that historians do not know much about the early Marine uniforms either, because a study of the uniform in photographs, portraits, and contemporaneous illustrations provides helpful hints as to the pattern of the actual swords being carried during the 1798 through 1875 period. Our understanding of the patterns of swords carried by musicians and noncommissioned officers is also mistaken.

  • Iron, Steel and Swords Script - Page 1
    Sword Types Giving a short list of sword types seems to be easy. Well - it isn't. For one thing, it will never end because every culture / civilization or language group had and has plenty of sword types and words for them, most of them unknown outside that culture / civilization or language group, thank God. But some of these words made it to other groups already in the past, and more and more outlandish denominations make it into English or German right now. Unfortunately, the precise meaning, if it was known at all, may get lost in the process. Contrariwise, one and the same word might have different meanings here or there or then and now. Not to mention that there is no 1 : 1 correlation between translations from language to language. The English "broadsword" translates properly to a German "Korbschwert" (=basket sword). The direct translation would be "Breitschwert". This term does exist in German - but it denotes something quite different from a "broadsword". Only one thing seems to be certain: any short definition of some term, no matter which one, will bring in protests from some camp of believers out there. So let me state on the outset: whatever I write further down, my heart isn't in it. Correct me if you like. I'll go along with you - until the next correction comes in. Basics My own interest is not so much about the name associated with a particular type of sword but about its metallography. Since correlating sword types to metallography is mostly not a sensible thing to do, my next question is why some particular kind of sword existed at all? The user had always access to or at least some knowledge of some other types.
