    HISTORY OF RED CROSS Henri Dunant, founder of Red Cross Jean Henri Dunant was born in Geneva on 8 May 1828. His character and education impelled him to help the distressed and the unfortunate and to be concerned about social work. In 1853, he was appointed as an accountant to a subsidiary company in Algeria, which entailed a certain amount of travelling. On 24 June 1859, Dunant arrived at Solferino where he witnessed one of the fiercest battles of the nineteenth century. The Battle of Solferino lasted for more than 15 hours and more than 40,000 were wounded. Dunant was filled with horror and pity as he viewed the appalling spectacle of human suffering. With the help of the villagers at Castiglione, he worked tirelessly, without sleep for three days, giving comfort and what medical care he could to the injured men. Back at Geneva, Dunant was haunted by visions of the terrible battle and he devoted all his strength to ensure that the terrible sufferings he had witnessed never occurred again. In 1862, Dunant wrote and published a book entitled "A Memory of Solferino", which he put forward his ideas to foster the creation in every country of a society for the relief of the military wounded and capable of helping the army medical services to carry out their tasks. Birth of Red Cross Gustave Moynier, a prominent lawyer in Geneva and president of the city's Society of Public Welfare, showed immediate interest in Dunant's ideas. Moynier lost no time in setting up the Permanent International Committee of the Relief of the Wounded, which was later known as the International Committee of the Red Cross.

Biographical Note The Davison family was one of the east coast’s most prominent families during the late 1800s/early 1900s. Their philanthropic efforts and their patriotic spirits during the First World War did not go unnoticed by the American public. Henry Pomeroy Davison was born on June 12, 1867 in Troy, Pennsylvania. He began he career as a bookkeeper in a bank managed by a family member and when he was 21, found a job at a bank in Bridgeport, Connecticut. It was there he met his future wife. Mary Kate Trubee was born on February 2, 1871 in Bridgeport, Connecticut. On April 13, 1893, she married Henry P. Davison. Three years later the couple moved to New York City where Davison held a position at the Astor Place Bank.

Sims, commander of U.S. naval forces operating in Europe during World War I, declared, “Lieuten- ant David S. Ingalls may rightly be called the ‘Naval Ace’ of the war.”1 Of the twenty thousand pilots, observers, ground officers, mechanics, and construction workers who served overseas in the conflict, only Ingalls earned that unofficial yet esteemed status. In contrast, by November 1918, the U.S. Army Air Service counted more than 120 aces.2 The Cleveland, Ohio, native’s unique achievement resulted from several factors.

  • Centenary Historians' Conference
    Centenary Historians’ Conference media.ifrc.org/ifrc/speech/centenary-historians-conference/ Elhadj As Sy International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) Secretary General Date: Thursday, 13 June, 2019 Event: Centenary Historians’ Conference Location: Geneva, Switzerland Thank you David, and thank you all. Let me first of all welcome you to the IFRC, and thank you for putting in so much effort, thought, intellect and competence in looking at the history of our Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement. And particularly so in this year, when we take stock and reflect on our 100 years. There is a popular saying in my culture that if you don’t know where you’re going, you go back to where you came from. In my mother tongue it translates literally to ‘know your past to better shape your future’. And this saying is often used in that culture by what we call the Praise Singers. When soldiers were preparing for war, praise singers would remind them of their past, and the stories of their ancestors, to fill them with courage. So, we go back to our history and use it as a source of strength. But it’s not only used in the context of waging wars – it’s also used when leaders are faced with difficult decisions, in difficult times at family, community and national levels. The Praise Singers would take them back to history with stories of courage, forgiveness, reconciliation, care, support and humility: examples that serve as sources of inspiration and motivation to do nothing less than shape a better future.

  • Gatsby: Myths and Realities of Long Island's North Shore Gold Coast.” the Nassau County Historical Society Journal 52 (1997):16–26
    Previously published in The Nassau County Historical Society Journal. Revised and modified in July 2010 for website publication at www.spinzialongislandestates.com Please cite as: Spinzia, Raymond E. and Judith A. Spinzia. “Gatsby: Myths and Realities of Long Island's North Shore Gold Coast.” The Nassau County Historical Society Journal 52 (1997):16–26. Gatsby: Myths and Realities of Long Island’s North Shore Gold Coast by Raymond E. Spinzia and Judith A. Spinzia . The North Shore estates more than those of any other area of the Island captured the imagination of twentieth-century America. They occupied the area from Great Neck east to Centerport and from the Long Island Sound to just south of the present site of the Long Island Expressway. At the height of the estate era, Long Island had three Gold Coasts. An excellent social history of the South Shore estates, entitled Along the Great South Bay: From Oakdale to Babylon, has been written by Harry W. Havemeyer. The East End estates, which were built in the area known as the Hamptons, are chronicled by the authors in the soon-to-be-published Long Island’s Prominent Families in the Town of Southampton: Their Estates and Their Country Homes and Long Island’s Prominent Families in the Town of East Hampton: Their Estates and Their Country Homes. It is Long Island’s North Shore Gold Coast and the fact, fiction, and outright confusion created by F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby that are considered here.1 Even the very existence of the South Shore and East End estates has remained relatively unknown.

  • The Composition of the International Committee of the Red Cross
    The composition of the International Committee of the Red Cross by Frangois Bugnion "I know of no part of jurisprudence or of the humanities to which the institution calling itself the Geneva Committee can be connected", de- clared the renowned Russian jurist Fiodor Fiodorovitch de Martens, legal adviser to the Imperial Russian Government, at the Fourth International Conference of Red Cross Societies held in Karlsruhe in September 1887.' No wonder he was puzzled, for although the International Committee is an international institution by reason of its activities and duties, its composition is still that of a private association under Swiss law. The International Committee is the continuation of the Committee of Five appointed by the Geneva Society for Public Welfare on 9 February 1863. This Committee founded the Red Cross and took the initiative of promoting the original Geneva Convention. Ever since, members who resign or die have been replaced by individuals chosen by the remaining members, so there has been no break in the International Committee's already long history. The Committee has called in reinforcements when its workload made this necessary. The number of its members increased from five to seven during the Franco-Prussian war of 1870-71; there were sixteen at the end of the First World War and twenty at the end of the Second World War. Since 1945 they have numbered between fifteen and twenty-five. 1 Quatrieme Conference Internationale des Societes de la Croix-Rouge tenue a Carlsruhe du 22 au 27 septembre 1887, Compte rendu, p. 95. 427 INTERNATIONAL REVIEW OF THE RED CROSS The members of the Committee have always been chosen from among Swiss citizens.

  • Harold Harris, Albert Hegenberger, Oakley Kelly, Lester Maitland and John Macready
    Bibliography and References for Biographical Sketches on: Harold Harris, Albert Hegenberger, Oakley Kelly, Lester Maitland and John Macready By Prof. Justin Libby Acknowledgements: There are, in the course of researching and writing an essay, so many courteous, knowledgeable and gifted archivists who have made the endeavor possible. One of the great joys of any researcher and writer on aviation topics is to visit and become acquainted with the library staff at the National Air and Space Museum (NASM) and the personnel at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D. C. whose assistance is great appreciated. In particular, I owe a great debt to Mrs. Kate Igoe who opened the relevant files to me and answered my many questions with not only a great knowledge of the materials but with grace, courtesy and profound patience. Mr. Michael Barnes was most helpful in providing the photographs appearing in my study. Another bonus in accomplishing this project was the experience in researching at the Paul Luarance (correct spelling) Dunbar Library on the campus of Wright State University in Dayton-Fairborn, Ohio where John Armstrong was my host along with his friendly and courteous staff in searching out information not only relating to Harold R. Harris as well as other aviators. General Harris surely deserves a separate essay chronicling the life and the achievements of this remarkable pioneering aviator, successful executive businessman and consummate patriot. I also had the privilege of meeting Brett Stolle at the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base Archives who was so kind in guiding me through the holdings at his location and provided me with the files on the careers of Harold Harris, Albert Hegenberger, Oakley Kelly, Lester Maitland and John Macready and several other aviation personalities.
