  • Ordinary Heroes: Depictions of Masculinity in World War II Film a Thesis Submitted to the Miami University Honors Program in Pa
    Ordinary Heroes: Depictions of Masculinity in World War II Film A thesis submitted to the Miami University Honors Program in partial fulfillment of the requirements for University Honors with Distinction by Robert M. Dunlap May 2007 Oxford, Ohio Abstract Much work has been done investigating the historical accuracy of World War II film, but no work has been done using these films to explore social values. From a mixed film studies and historical perspective, this essay investigates movie images of American soldiers in the European Theater of Operations to analyze changing perceptions of masculinity. An examination of ten films chronologically shows a distinct change from the post-war period to the present in the depiction of American soldiers. Masculinity undergoes a marked change from the film Battleground (1949) to Band of Brothers (2001). These changes coincide with monumental shifts in American culture. Events such as the loss of the Vietnam War dramatically changed perceptions of the Second World War and the men who fought during that time period. The United States had to deal with a loss of masculinity that came with their defeat in Vietnam and that shift is reflected in these films. The soldiers depicted become more skeptical of their leadership and become more uncertain of themselves while simultaneously appearing more emotional. Over time, realistic images became acceptable and, in fact, celebrated as truthful while no less masculine. In more recent years, there is a return to the heroism of the World War II generation, with an added emotionality and dimensionality. Films reveal not only the popular opinions of the men who fought and reflect on the validity of the war, but also show contemporary views of masculinity and warfare.

    The Rhine River Crossings by Barry W. Fowle Each of the Allied army groups had made plans for the Rhine crossings. The emphasis of Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force (SHAEF) planning was in the north where the Canadians and British of Field Marshal Bernard L. Montgomery's 21st Army Group were to be the first across, followed by the Ninth United States Army, also under Montgomery. Once Montgomery crossed, the rest of the American armies to the south, 12th Army Group under General Omar N. Bradley and 6th Army Group under General Jacob L. Devers, would cross. On 7 March 1945, all that Slegburg changed.

  • Here Were Many Mighty Works & a Great Outpouring of the Spirit So That I Prophesied and Entered Into the Kingdom Celestial
    1938 Letters • 173 [picture postcard: Angel Moroni Monument, Hill Cumorah, near Palmyra, New York]34 [postmarked Hudson, NY, 27 July 1938] Here were many mighty works & a great outpouring of the spirit so that I prophesied and entered into the Kingdom Celestial. B Walpole, New Hampshire. [2(?) September 1938] Dear Kate: Hell no. One manuscript more wouldn’t even be perceptible in the heap I’ve read through in the last two weeks. I trust the comment is full enough. I’d expand it to three-quarters of an hour at Bread Loaf but I wouldn’t say any more. The gospel accord- ing to DeVoto (Uncle Belly as the psychopathology of everyday life made the speaker of the evening call me on Tuesday night) is just this: a story is about one thing, a story is developed, a story is dramatized. It was a good conference, the best yet by a Mormon block. Primarily because there were some writers there. Theodore Strauss, Harriet Hassell, Josephine Niggly, a gent named Ford, another one named Turtellot, all Bread Loaf Fellows, were pretty good, and Strauss is going to be better than that.35 (He did “A Night at Hogwallow,” which I didn’t give a prize in the L-B novelette contest.)36 But the nicest Fellow, and one who is going to go farther than the rest of them except Strauss, is Elizabeth Davis, a very pretty child from Michigan with one of those voices, like Josephine’s in MT, whose teleology is to knock me for a row of nostalgic heartbreaks.37 Someone wrote me about a long story of hers in Good Housekeeping, called “Fourteenth Summer,” and it turned out to be damned good.

  • The Bridge at Remagen
    The Bridge at Remagen A key battle in WW2 Written by Andy Owen When Second Lieutenant Karl Timmermann woke up on the morning of 7 March 1945, he didn't know he was going to make history that day. The day before he had been made commander of A Company of of the 27th Armored Infantry Battalion of the 9th Armored Division. He was the latest of a string of replacements, thanks to the Germans. He was in Stadt Mechenheim, about ten miles west of Remagen on the west bank of the Rhine River. Remarkably, he was also less than 100 miles from the place where he was born, in Frankfurt am Main. His father had been on occupation duty in Germany following the end of the previous war and had gone over the hill, met a German girl, and had a son. After he got things straightened out with the army, Karl Timmermann's father brought his family back to Nebraska. Now the son was back in Germany as a conquerer, and the elder Timmerman's prospects for grandchildren were dim. 1 Second Lieutenant Timmermann was ordered to take his company and attack toward Remagen at a rate of ten miles per hour. This was before the days of modern roads. This was part of a military operation called Operation Lumberjack, with the goal to capture the west bank of the Rhine River and seize key German cities near the end of World War II. The First United States Army launched the operation in March 1945 to capture strategic cities in Germany and to give the Allies a foothold along the Rhine.

I knew no one named Dillman who was not a known relative. And, all 11 of us lived in Lucas County, Iowa. My father and grandfather, said they thought the family had moved to Iowa from Indiana, and maybe before that from Pennsylvania, but that was all they knew. As a 17 year old freshman at Iowa State University, I remember going to a dormitory to visit a high school friend, and being surprised when he introduced a fellow student named Dillman. We looked at each other both wondering who this other person could be.
