  • January 28, 2002 ~ Battleship New Jersey Docent/Volunteer Bulletin
    Date: September 23, 2002 Battleship New Jersey Volunteer Bulletin Vol. 1 Issue # 22 September 11, 2002 – Commemoration… By order of the Chief of Naval Operations, VADM Charles W. Moore, Jr., at 8:46 a.m. on September 11, 2002, all US Navy ships, including USS New Jersey, lowered the Union Jack and raised the “first Navy Jack.” The first Navy Jack, “DON’T TREAD ON ME,” was first hoisted by Commodore Esek Hopkins. It was in the fall of 1775 as he commanded and prepared the Continental Navy to do battle. They were located in these Delaware River waters. The Jerseyman photo of USS New Jersey proudly displays the first Navy Jack at her bow. “THE FIRST NAVY JACK WILL BE FLOWN ON BOARD ALL U.S. NAVY SHIPS IN LIEU OF THE UNION JACK DURING THE GLOBAL WAR ON TERRORISM… THE JACK REPRESENTS A HISTORIC REMINDER OF THE NATION’S AND NAVY’S ORIGIN, AND WILL TO PRESERVE AND TRIUMPH…” Battleship New Jersey Volunteer Bulletin – Vol. 1 Issue # 22 – Page 2 From the Volunteer affairs office: To All Volunteers, The reunion of the USS New Jersey on Friday, September 13, was an overwhelming success thanks to the dedication of you, the ship's volunteers. Your dedication to the Battleship New Jersey made it possible for our veterans to return to this place that holds an abundance of memories for them. You made their reunion this year one to be remembered a lifetime, not only by the veterans themselves, but also by their children and grandchildren. Without you, the sons and daughters, grandsons and granddaughters of former crewmembers would never have been able to share this experience with their loved ones.

  • When Defensive Nationalism Morphs Into Aggressive Imperialism: Perpetuation and Destruction of the American Creation Narrative in Popular Culture Since 9/11
    Page | 10 When Defensive Nationalism Morphs into Aggressive Imperialism: Perpetuation and Destruction of the American Creation Narrative in Popular Culture since 9/11 MATTHEW SAMSON MHIS 365 From the Beats to Big Brother: Popular Culture SinCe the 1950s It took just four planes and a handful of operatives to jeopardise AmeriCan national identity. Although 9/11 was suCCessfully inCorporated into ConstruCtions of AmeriCan nationalism, the subsequent ‘War on Terror’ exposed many of its deep seated paradoxes. ACCording to Tom Engelhard, the United States of AmeriCa was formed to defend against undemoCratiC tyranny; to proteCt a peace-loving soCiety even if suCh proteCtion involved the reluctant use of violence.1 Over time, this narrative has expanded to foCus on the tenets of AmeriCan exCeptionalism: liberty, equality and self-government.2 This Creation narrative forms an important part of ColleCtive identity. Promulgation of this single genesis fosters feelings of kinship that transCend geographiCally and Culturally distinCt regions. This allows for the attribution of meaning to somewhat arbitrary fragments of space, leading to the imagined Community of the nation-state. Thus, nationality is a meta-narrative: it forms a totalising framework through whiCh the world is viewed. GeopolitiCal events suCh as the War of IndependenCe, Pearl Harbour and the Cuban Missile Crisis fit Comfortably into the AmeriCan Creation narrative.3 These events tend to portray AmeriCa as an innoCent but powerful viCtim; peaceful but prepared to fight when threatened. The events of 9/11 were quiCkly absorbed within existing ConstruCtions of AmeriCan identity. By Contrast, the War on Terror prompted fears of imperialism that direCtly opposed this narrative.

Tyson An abstract of a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate Program in Religion in the Graduate School of Duke University 2014 Copyright by Mandy Ellene McMichael 2014 Abstract Christian engagement with beauty contests shifted dramatically between the initial Miss America pageant in 1921 and its 90 th anniversary in 2011. This dissertation explores how and why many Christians found the organization an institution worthy of partnership with the church. It examines three aspects of Christian involvement in the contest: the long history of beauty pageants, the persistent emphasis on individual physical attractiveness, and the idea of witness in southern evangelical culture. It argues that after 1965, at least two factors enabled the unlikely marriage of Christians and the Miss America Organization: the perceived threat of second-wave feminism and evangelicalism’s increasing desire to engage culture.
