Photo: NOAA http://monitor.noaa.gov/education 1 Monitor National Marine Sanctuary: World War I — Discovering and Exploring the Great War off North Carolina’s Coast PROGRAM OVERVIEW This World War I curriculum consists of six activities that introduce students to the Great War. It begins with World War I raging across Europe, while most Americans are expressing a desire to remain isolated and not enter the war. It takes a look at the Zimmerman Telegram and how it propelled President Wilson to declare war on Germany. With public opinion divided, students discover how the government created a campaign using posters and speeches with an emotional plea to persuade Americans to support the war. Life was never the same once World War I began. Students learn how life changed for those fighting the war, as well as those on the home front, and create a scrapbook of memories reflecting on the life of a soldier, mother, factory worker, and a Four Minute man. Next, they create social media posts to look at historical voices through modern technology. Students also analyze primary and secondary sources relating to the sinking of the British tanker SS Mirlo, to learn how Germans used unrestricted submarine warfare to sink Allied vessels. Lastly, students will learn about World War I shipwrecks off North Carolina’s coast and understand how NOAA is working to protect them. Although, this curriculum guide has been designed to be taught as a unit, each lesson in the guide can stand on its own. Specifically, each lesson can be used independently to teach a particular objective, or lessons can be combined in multiple ways to create a plan tailored just for your students. We hope that you find the guide an exciting way to motivate your students in learning about World War I and the impacts off North Carolina. Through varied activities, your students explore the various science, technology, engineering, math, and social studies (STEMS) concepts associated with World War I and maritime heritage. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions, and we always welcome your feedback. Curriculum Outline A.

Up until 1912, he was an unknown person apart from in nautical circles and was a British sailor that had served in the British Merchant Navy and the Royal Naval Reserve for many years. However, his name is now part of the grand legacy of the Titanic story. The Titanic needs no introduction, it is possibly the most known single word used that can bring up memories of the sinking of the ship for the relatives, it will reveal a story that is still known and discussed to this day. And yet, Captain Rostron had no connections with the ship, or the White Star Line before 1912. On the night of 14th/15th April 1912, because of his selfless actions, he would be best remembered as the Captain of the RMS Carpathia who rescued many hundreds of people from the sinking of the RMS Titanic, after it collided with an iceberg in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean.

In this 1920 oil painting “A Fast Convoy” by Burnell Poole, the destroyer USS Allen (DD-66) is shown escorting USS Leviathan (SP-1326). Throughout the course of the war, Leviathan transported more than 98,000 troops. Naval History and Heritage Command 1 United States Navy and World War I: 1914–1922 Frank A. Blazich Jr., PhD Naval History and Heritage Command Introduction This document is intended to provide readers with a chronological progression of the activities of the United States Navy and its involvement with World War I as an outside observer, active participant, and victor engaged in the war’s lingering effects in the postwar period. The document is not a comprehensive timeline of every action, policy decision, or ship movement. What is provided is a glimpse into how the 20th century’s first global conflict influenced the Navy and its evolution throughout the conflict and the immediate aftermath. The source base is predominately composed of the published records of the Navy and the primary materials gathered under the supervision of Captain Dudley Knox in the Historical Section in the Office of Naval Records and Library. A thorough chronology remains to be written on the Navy’s actions in regard to World War I. The nationality of all vessels, unless otherwise listed, is the United States.

    Sinking of the RMS Lusitania 1 Sinking of the RMS Lusitania Sinking of the RMS Lusitania 1915 painting of the sinking. Date 7 May 1915 Time 14:10 – 14:28 Location North Atlantic Ocean, near Old Head of Kinsale, Ireland Cause Torpedoed by German U-boat. Outcome • 1,198 of the 1,959 people aboard killed, leaving 761 survivors. • Turned international opinion against Germany and led towards American entry into World War I. The sinking of the Cunard ocean liner RMS Lusitania occurred on 7 May 1915 during the First World War, as Germany waged submarine warfare against Britain. The ship was identified and torpedoed by the German U-boat U-20 and sank in 18 minutes. The vessel went down 11 miles (18 km) off the Old Head of Kinsale,[1] Ireland, killing 1,198 of the 1,959 people aboard, leaving 761 survivors. The sinking turned public opinion in many countries against Germany, contributed to the American entry into World War I and became an iconic symbol in military recruiting campaigns of why the war was being fought.[2] Lusitania had the misfortune to fall victim to torpedo attack relatively early in the First World War, before tactics for evading submarines were properly implemented or understood. The contemporary investigations both in the UK and the United States into the precise causes of the ship's loss were obstructed by the needs of wartime secrecy and a propaganda campaign to ensure all blame fell upon Germany. Argument over whether the ship was a legitimate military target raged back and forth throughout the war as both sides made misleading claims about the ship.

  • Submarine Warfare and the First World War
    Submarine Warfare and the First World War Project Group: Würzburg University Project Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Frank Jacob Project Participants: Riccardo Altieri, Philipp Amendt, Laura Metz, Florian Nolte, Tilman Sanhüter, Marc Schwenkert, Jakob Stahl, Philipp Vogler, Arne Weber This is the song of the submarine Afloat on the waters wide. Like a sleeping whale In the starlight pale, Just flush with the swirling tide. The salt sea ripples against her plates The salt wind is her breath, Like the spear of fate She lies in wait, And her name is “Sudden Death.” I watch the swift destroyers come, Like greyhounds lank and lean, And their long hulks sleek Play hide-and-seek With me on the waters green. I watch them with my single eye, I see their funnels flame, And I sing Ho! Ho! As I sink below, Ho! Ho! For a glorious game! I roam the seas from Scapa Flow O the Bight of Heligoland; In the Dover Strait I lie in wait On the edge of Goodwin’s Sand. I am here and there and everywhere, Like the phantom of a dream, And I sing Ho! Ho! Through the winds that blow, The song of the submarine!1 The submarine, described as a deadly and silent weapon in the above quoted poem, was one of the new aspects of the Great War. It was the use of modern technologies that changed the way wars were fought, especially with regard to the First World War, which made the interrelationship between warfare and technology itself obvious.2 In this conflict, the armies that possessed the better weapons would be able to win decisive battles.

  • Channel Islands Great War Study Group
    CHANNEL ISLANDS GREAT WAR STUDY GROUP 1919 And New Commitments The Rhine Patrol lying alongside the embankment at Cologne JOURNAL 24 FEBRUARY 2009 Please note that Copyright for any articles contained in this Journal rests with the Authors as shown. Please contact them directly if you wish to use their material. 1 Hello All For a while, it seemed that the Group’s start to 2009 had been rather muted and I was getting a little twitchy that nothing seemed to be happening. Was it a case of “anniversary exhaustion” in 2008? Was it an over-indulgent Christmas? Or the blues that may have been brought on by Chelsea’s plight, the recession, credit-crunch and the fact that many bankers will be excessively rewarded with bonus for their failings? But no! Like the swan, the Group glides elegantly along on the surface, while many of the members are underneath paddling furiously to keep the momentum going. And it is important to keep that momentum going, for although 2009 can be regarded the last “numerically natural” anniversary, i.e. the 90th, until the centenary of the Great War’s outbreak, there is still much for us to learn in terms of the Islands’ contribution and to promote amongst the communities. Not everything that we might be working at will achieve that “quick win”. So, I for one am particularly delighted that Ian Ronayne has cleared a major hurdle by getting the draft of his book on the Jersey Contingent into the publisher at the beginning of this month. He has been working on the book for about five years to date, and, provided that there are no hitches, it should appear on the bookshelves this coming August.

  • Ultra Full Sense to Effect Torpedo Countermeasure Capability 2021
    Full “Sense-to-Effect” Torpedo Countermeasure Capability ultra.group Image: RMS Lusitania For over a hundred years submarines have lurked beneath the waves, providing a silent and current threat to surface shipping, both commercial and military. During World War I, the sinking of the RMS Lusitania by a torpedo fired from a German U-Boat showed the tactical advantages of having an underwater capability in maritime operations. World War II showed prolific use of torpedoes in the maritime battlespace, prompting the increasing need for anti-submarine warfare (ASW) to detect and counter such threats. Torpedoes provide an asymmetric “bang for buck”; they are low cost, proven and effective weapons. The threat of a torpedo attack remains pertinent, even in current times of low conflict, as demonstrated by the sinking of ROKS Cheonan in 2010, resulting in the loss of 46 crew. ASW is a game of “cat and mouse” covering knowledge of threats and countermeasures, each keeping up with the change in the pace of technology. Situational awareness of the underwater battlespace is the core need for a surface ship or fleet to assess the threat of attack. Sensors deployed from surface ships constantly listen to the environment to detect the presence of submarine or torpedo threats, with operators using gathered intelligence to classify them. To achieve a low false-alarm rate, it is necessary for systems to reliably extract the essential signals from the ocean noise to confidently determine threats at tactically significant ranges where countermeasures can be effectively actioned. Passive sonar detection is used to avoid polluting the water with excess noise that the threat can detect.

  • Hypothermia 1 Hypothermia
    Hypothermia 1 Hypothermia Hypothermia Classification and external resources During Napoleon Bonaparte's retreat from Russia in the winter of 1812 many troops suffered from hypothermia. [1] ICD-10 T68. [2] ICD-9 991.6 [3] DiseasesDB 6542 [4] eMedicine med/1144 [5] MeSH D007035 Hypothermia (from Greek υποθερμία) is a condition in which core temperature drops below the required temperature for normal metabolism and body functions which is defined as 35.0 °C (95.0 °F). Body temperature is usually maintained near a constant level of 36.5–37.5 °C (98–100 °F) through biologic homeostasis or thermoregulation. If exposed to cold and the internal mechanisms are unable to replenish the heat that is being lost, a drop in core temperature occurs. As body temperature decreases, characteristic symptoms occur such as shivering and mental confusion. Hypothermia is the opposite of hyperthermia which is present in heat exhaustion and heat stroke. The lowest documented body temperature from which anyone has recovered was 13.0 °C (55.4 °F), in a drowning incident involving a 7-year-old girl in Sweden in December 2010.[6] Classification Normal human body temperature in adults is 34.4–37.8 °C (94–100 °F).[9] Sometimes a narrower range is stated, such as 36.5–37.5 °C (98–100 °F).[10] Hypothermia is defined as any body temperature below 35.0 °C (95.0 °F). It is subdivided into four different degrees, mild 32–35 °C (90–95 °F); moderate, 28–32 °C (82–90 °F); severe, 20–28 °C (68–82 °F); and profound at less than 20 °C (68 °F).[11] This is in contrast to hyperthermia
