(HAP) ARNOLD - JUNE 25, 1886 - JANUARY 15, 1950 BY: ESTES G, HAWKES It Was Almost Twenty Years Ago That I First Had the Pleasure of Visiting Mrs lyn had been chasing and destroying the capital ships, the rest of the Americans had annihilated all the destroyers and gun boats of the Spanish Fleet. Captain Evans of the Iowa said of his men in his report to Sch- ley that : "So long as the enemy showed his flag, they fought like American seamen, but when the flag came down they were as gentle and tender as American Women."*6 Many acts of heroism were performed by the men of the Flying Squadron. The sailors braved shark infested waters and blazing ships to rescue the Spanish seamen. Admiral Cervera himself com- plimented the men on their compassion for their enemies. *6 M. Leech.

THE DECORATIONS, ORDERS AND MEDALS OF GENERAL OF THE AIR FORCE HENRY H, (HAP) ARNOLD - JUNE 25, 1886 - JANUARY 15, 1950 BY: ESTES G, HAWKES It was almost twenty years ago that I first had the pleasure of visiting Mrs. Henry H. Arnold, who very kindly asked me to cata- logue har late husband’s awards. Mrs. Arnold recently passed away at 91 years of age and, as was her wish, General Arnold’s orders and medals have been given to the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The Academy was a lifetime dream of General Arnold’s, and it was largely through his tireless efforts that it was at last realized. It is fitting that these mementos of his military career should rest there. These medals are especially interesting because of their ties with aviation history, and for the variety of honors given to Gen- eral Arnold by the grateful nations of the world, in recognition of his leadership and his contributions to aviation. They cover a ca- reer of more than forty years of military service. Although they probably will not be displayed that way at the Academy, the medals when I first saw them were in a special cabinet made to hold them. This glass-topped oak cabinet with four velvet-lined drawers was given to General Arnold by his staff in Washington D.C. upon his retirement in 1946, and bears a silver plaque to that effect. The awards it contained are as follows: 22 U,S, AWARDS 1. DISTINGUISHED SERVICE MEDAL, with two oak leaf clus- ters, numbered 10145. Engraved: Henry H. Arnold. 2. DISTINGUISHED SERVICE MEDAL, numbered 2447. Not en- graved. This low number indicates (to me) that it was aWorld War I award. He returned from France in 1918 as a colonel and deputy to General Billy Mitchell. 3. LEGION OF MERIT. Engraved: H. H. Arnold. 4. DISTINGUISHED FLYING CROSS, numbered 161. Engraved: H.H. Arnold. This decoration is somewhat thicker than the presently issued cross, and was manu- factured by Aug. C. Frank. The numbering on the reverse is quite large, approximately three fifths to three quarters of an inch high. 5. AIR MEDAL, engraved Lieut. Gen. H. H. Arnold, U.S.A. 6. VICTORY MEDAL (W.W.I.) Bars: Meuse-Argonne Oise-Aisne Defensive Sector 7, A~IERICAN DEFENSE MEDAL. 8. AMERICAN THEATER CAMPAIGN MEDAL. 9. PACIFIC THEATER CAMPAIGN MEDAL. I0. EUROPE AND MIDDLE EASTERN CAMPAIGN MEDAL. Ii. VICTORY MEDAL (W.W.II.) 12. CLARENCE H. MACKAY MEDAL, 1912. Engraved on reverse: "Won by Lieut. H. H. Arnold." 13. CLARENCE H. MACKAY MEDAL, 1934. Engraved on reverse: "Lieut. Col. H, H. Arnold Commanding U. S. Army Alaskan Flight." Bar on ribbon reads: "Brig. Gen. H. H. Arnold, A.C. Commanding Officer, U.S. Army Alaskan Flight." He was promoted in 1934 from Lieutenant Colonel to Brigadier General. I be- lieve he was the only individual to win the Mac- kay Medal twice. 14. MILITARY AVIATOR’S GOLD BADGE. The certificate from the Signal Corps awards the Avia£or’s Badge to Lieutenant H. H. Arnold, July 5, 1912. 15. EXPERT MARKSMAN BADGE Bars: Pistol - D Rifle FOREIGN ORDERS (Grand Cross Sets) i. ORDER OF THE BATH (England). 2. LEGION OF HONOR (France). 3. ORDER OF AERONAUTICAL MERIT (Brazil). 4. ORDER OF ORANGE-NASSAU, with swords (Netherlands). 5. ORDER OF VASCO NUNEZ DE BALBOA (Panama). 6.

NATIONAL ORDER OF THE SOUTHERN CROSS, Type If, Commander (Brazil). 6. CROSS OF AVIATION, Ist Class (Peru). 7. CROIX DE GUERRE, with Palm (France). 8. CROIX DE GUERRE, with Palm (Belgium). Family records show that General Arnold also received the Grand Cordon of the Order of the Cloud and Banner from China, but its whereabouts is unknown at present. CORRECTION: BY: WILLIAM C, BEAL Reference to: The Medal Collector, June 1980 article about the awards of Admiral Richard Kelly Turner U.S. Navy. I could be wrong, maybe the Navy does it differently, but the rotation of ribbons on the Admiral’s uniform were mounted wrongly. Decorations first, awards second, Campaign medals third & foreign medals last. Campaign medals listed in the order of their service. One other thing, the Admiral would also have earned the World War II Victory medal which is not included in the group shown. I think Mr. Jones should have researched the orders of prefer- ence as to the mounting even though another person composed the ribbon bank on the uniform. On the other hand, it just might be the way the Navy does things. FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK,,, BY: JoYcE SPRINGER Recently I have received items for The Medal Collector with notes stating: "Please bill me..." or "Let me know the charge for print- ing this." I want to inform all members-expecially new members-the only charge is for advertising at the rates given on the back cover of each issue and these should be sent to the Secretary. The Medal Collector is your journal. It exists through your contributions of articles, identifications, pictures, etc. After the call for articles in January 1978 there was a continuous supply; but for the past year the articles used have been about two to one. This will soon deplete the articles on hand. So once again I am reminding you that there is a need for more articles and material to fill The Medal Collector than is being received.-Thank You! 24 .

It promotes a deeper understanding of Mexico‘s social, economic, and cultural history in the late twentieth century. In particular, this study focuses on the rise of mass middle-class tourism American tourism to Mexico between 1970 and 2000. It closely examines Cancún‘s central role in buttressing Mexico to its status as a regional tourism pioneer in the latter half of the twentieth century. More broadly, it also illuminates Mexico‘s leadership in tourism among countries in the Global South.

Chicano Studies Research Center Library 2012 144 Haines Hall Box 951544 Los Angeles, California 90095-1544 [email protected] URL: http://chicano.ucla.edu Finding Aid for the American GI 115 1 Forum of California Records, 1958-2009 115 Language of Material: English Contributing Institution: Chicano Studies Research Center Library Title: American GI Forum of California Records Creator: American GI Forum of California 1958 - Identifier/Call Number: 115 Physical Description: 19 linear feet Date (inclusive): 1958-2009 Abstract: The American GI Forum of California Collection includes correspondence, ephemera, and organizational papers documenting their activities. These materials offer researchers a lens into the often-difficult reintegration process that veterans undergo following their separation from the armed forces, as well as the overall effects of this process on their families and their communities. Researchers will find these materials useful for critical examinations of the social location of Latino servicemen and servicewomen within the context of a large metropolitan center and how this identity has evolved since 1942. Indeed, a collection of this caliber has wide application for studies on the overall condition of Latinos within the United States as well as on the lives and communities of California Latino veterans. Moreover, according to Kelly Lytle-Hernandez, professor of History at UCLA, this particular collection has much to offer scholars interested in studying local California politics, Latino veteran organizing, and gender dynamics in a traditionally male-centered context.
