This is an interview with Mary Nell Bryant. I am doing this on behalf of the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training (ADST), and I am Charles Stewart Kennedy. Do you call yourself Mary Nell, or…? BRYANT: Mary Nell. Q: Okay. Mary Nell, let's talk about when and where you were born. BRYANT: Miami, Florida in 1952. I was born and raised there. Q: Let's talk a bit on your father's side; then we will come to your mother's side. Where did Mr. Bryant come from, and what do you know about that side of the family? BRYANT: My father, Calvin Schofield Bryant, was born on a United Fruit plantation in Tela, Honduras, on the Caribbean coast. His father was Calvin Oak Bryant of Lakeland, Florida; his mother Nellie Schofield of Corozal, Belize, which is a seaside town now considered a great expat relocation destination. The Nell in my name comes from my paternal grandmother. My father’s first years were spent growing up on the United Fruit compound in Tela. Q: What do you know, say, at the grandfather level and the grandmother level? What do you know about that? What they were up to and…? BRYANT: My grandmother was born and raised in Corozal, one of 16 children of Ernest Augustus Henry Schofield and Petronita Novella. (Ten of the children lived to adulthood: Rosita, Dora, Ines, Mito, Tavo, Tom, Ernesto, Ida, Nellie Armitage and Judy.) Ernest Augustus Schofield came from London in 1879 at age 19 to work in his father’s lumber and shipping business.

It was impossible to discover who had numbered the label, and therefore it was difficult to trace the dealer who smuggled the drug. Another of the labels bore the certificate of the Imperial Hygienic Laboratory, with the number 7984 and the date of August 1927. According to the investigations made by the Osaka Hygienic Laboratory, this number was put on the 141 bottles of 25 grammes each and 2 bottles of 5 grammes each filled on the application of Gohei Ianake, of Osaka.

  • Author's Note for the Huntress by Kate Quinn
    Author’s Note for The Huntress By Kate Quinn The Soviet Union was the only nation involved in the Second World War to put women in the sky as fighter and bomber pilots. Primarily women in their late teens and early twenties, they were products of the Soviet aviation drive of the 1930s, and they were championed by Marina Raskova, the Amelia Earhart of the USSR, who unabashedly used Stalin’s favor to get three all- female regiments funded and trained. The day bombers and the fighter pilots (among the latter, Lilia Litviak, seen in cameo at the Engels training camp, was killed in an aerial dogfight during the war, but became history’s first female ace) eventually integrated with male personnel. The night bombers remained all-female throughout their entire term of service and were fiercely proud of this fact. The ladies of the Forty-Sixth “Taman” Guards Night Bomber Aviation Regiment went to war in the outdated Polikarpov U-2, an open-cockpit cloth-and-plywood biplane, achingly slow and highly flammable, built without radio, parachute, or brakes. (It was redesignated the Po-2 after 1943; I was unable to pinpoint an exact date for the change, and so continued to use the term U-2 for clarity.) The women flew winter and summer, anywhere from five to eighteen runs per night, relying on stimulants that destroyed their ability to rest once off-duty. They flew continuously under these conditions for three years, surviving on catnaps and camaraderie, developing the conveyor belt land-and-refuel routine that gave them a far more efficient record than comparable night bomber regiments.

    RUTGERS, THE STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW JERSEY NEW BRUNSWICK AN INTERVIEW WITH ROBERT DOXEY FOR THE RUTGERS ORAL HISTORY ARCHIVES INTERVIEW CONDUCTED BY NICHOLAS MOLNAR PARK RIDGE, NEW JERSEY JULY 18, 2012 TRANSCRIPT BY JENNA RUTSKY and DOMINGO DUARTE Nicholas Molnar: This begins an interview with Mr. Robert Doxey on July 18, 2012, in Park Ridge, New Jersey, with Nicholas Molnar. Thank you, Mr. Doxey, for having me here today. Robert Doxey: My pleasure. NM: Could you tell me when and where you were born? RD: I was born in Park Ridge, 1921, and I was born at home. NM: We usually begin the interview by asking a little bit about your background and family history. Could you tell me a little bit about your father? RD: Well, my father, Robert Doxey, was born in Philadelphia. His father, Abraham Doxey, was a stonecutter from England and, of course, in those days, these people were brought to the United States because of their trade. He was working in Philadelphia at the time on a job and, I think, in his young thirties, he died of influenza, my grandfather. My grandmother was a (Westphal?), old-time family from Hillsdale, New Jersey, an old-time family in Bergen County, and she lived a full life, had children, were Robert, Stanford, Ethel, Theresa and Marion. Those were my aunts. My mother was born in Hackensack, New Jersey, of a German immigrant family. Her father was a textile worker in Paterson. That's about all I know of the background, of the history of my family.

  • When German Prisoners of War Passed Through Paoli Roger D
    Excerpted from Vol. 48 No. 1 of the Tredyffrin Easttown History Quarterly When German Prisoners of War Passed Through Paoli Roger D. Thorne At the November 21, 2010 meeting of the Tredyffrin Easttown Historical Society, Roger Thorne, Society presi- dent, presented a program on a little-known topic—the transportation of German prisoners of war from the European Theater to remote camps throughout the United States. These highly secretive transfers included trips on the Pennsylvania Railroad’s tracks through the heart of the Philadelphia Main Line, unbeknownst to residents and to virtually anyone else who did not have a need to know. While his research into this subject continues, Roger shares much of the fascinating November presentation with our readers in this issue of the Quarterly. I. Perspective s the year 1942 began, an Axis victory in World War II was a distinct possibility. The war was going bad- Aly for the Allies. The German Army, with its partners, occupied most of Europe and North Africa. Ameri- can and British defenses in the Pacific and the Far East were crumbling before the Japanese onslaught. Despite the shock of their first Russian winter, the German Wehrmacht, one of the most formidable armies in world history, continued to deliver crushing blows to the Soviet Army. In the Atlantic, German submarines were sinking Allied shipping faster than it could be replaced. Flames from dying ships were a common sight from the boardwalk of Atlantic City. If the frail lifeline to the United Kingdom was severed, England could not long survive, and Europe would not be successfully liberated.
