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.

  • Plenary Lecture
    HALL I 09.00 — po.00 PLENARY LECTURE The first Capital cornerstone laying: Masonry, Alexandria, the nation, and the world, c. 1791 PROFESSOR STEVEN C. BULLOCK The 1791 ceremony laying the first boundary marker of District of Columbia was not a particularly impressive event. It attracted no famous figures. Even the stone itself was soon replaced. But the seemingly unremarkable ritual that took place almost exactly 220 years ago in Alexandria, just a few miles from the conference site, provides a means of examining some of the most significant elements of Masonry during those years. An examination of the ceremony and the brothers who participated in it highlights the connections that tied them and their town together, that linked them to the new nation and to its growing national economy, and that allowed them to participate in a transatlantic cultural world. Besides participating in these relationships, the fraternity also built and sustained them--allowing its members to fulfill the goal of a much more recent slogan, thinking globally while acting locally. 1111 HA _L" 10.30 —12 NOON SESSION I: MOZART AND FREEMASONRY CHAIR — HARRIET SANDVALL, UK Paper Ia: Mozart: The contrapuntal temple in the last symphony Neva Krysteva, Bulgaria If we discuss the "classical aspect" of Mozart's nature and "recognize" the same Masonic idea in the Requiem and in The Magic Flute, we think in the categories of humanity and universalism. The same can be said in other terms: Mozart is a representative of more than one meaning of the word Masonry: operative meaning ("Kunste," or "Arbeit") and speculative ("Klugheit,") aspects.

  • Chronology of the American Revolution
    INTRODUCTION One of the missions of The Friends of Valley Forge Park is the promotion of our historical heritage so that the spirit of what took place over two hundred years ago continues to inspire both current and future generations of all people. It is with great pleasure and satisfaction that we are able to offer to the public this chronology of events of The American Revolution. While a simple listing of facts, it is the hope that it will instill in some the desire to dig a little deeper into the fascinating stories underlying the events presented. The following pages were compiled over a three year period with text taken from many sources, including the internet, reference books, tapes and many other available resources. A bibliography of source material is listed at the end of the book. This publication is the result of the dedication, time and effort of Mr. Frank Resavy, a long time volunteer at Valley Forge National Historical Park and a member of The Friends of Valley Forge Park. As with most efforts of this magnitude, a little help from friends is invaluable. Frank and The Friends are enormously grateful for the generous support that he received from the staff and volunteers at Valley Forge National Park as well as the education committee of The Friends of Valley Forge Park.

LONDON : PRINTED BY THE FREEMASONS' MAGAZINE COMPANY, LIMITED, AT THE " SCIENTIFIC PRESS," 3, RUSSELL COURT, BRYDGES STREET, COVENT GARDEN, W.C. THE FREEMASONS' MAGAZINE AND MASONIC MIEEOE. ADDRESS TO OUR READERS. IN accordance with " time-honoured custom," the completion of the 18fch Vol. of the New Series of the FREEMASONS' MAGAZINE AND MASONIC MIEROE is now availed of to address our readers. "With a view to carry out the proposal some time ago started for enabling the publishing price of the MAGAZINE to be reduced, and its circulation greatly increased, the preliminary steps have been taken,' and" it now only remains for our friends and the well wishers of the MAGAZINE to come forward and aid us in completing the project, in the successful carrying out of which, all the members of the Masonic fraternity, whether holding under the English, Scottish, or Irish constitutions, are interested to a much greater extent than those who have hitherto been connected with the MAGAZINE as a property. Now that the course of transferring the future publication of the MAGAZINE to a Joint Stock Company with " Limited Liability" has been determined upon, we earnestly invite the co-operation of its friends and supporters ; and, as it is not thought desirable to parade our Order and its only recognised Organ before the public, and as it is not believed to be necessary to appeal to the public to take shares in the Company, it is not proposed to issue any advertisements or public announcements ; it is therefore hoped that any application further a field for the remainder of the capital required, will be unnecessary.

  • ROSSLYN CHAPEL: a LEGACY in STONE by W/B David P
    ROSSLYN CHAPEL: A LEGACY IN STONE By W/B David P. Stuard, Jr. Just seven miles from Edinburgh, on the edge of the beautiful Esk valley, stands one of the most intriguing structures in the world, the mysterious Rosslyn Chapel. Designed and built by the third and last Prince of Orkney, Sir William St. Clair, it is a monument to craftsmanship, bristling with flying buttresses and gargoyles in the highest gothic style on the exterior, its interior covered with curious carvings representing Egyptian, Celtic, Jewish, Templar, and Masonic symbolism. Entangled pyramids, Celtic Green Men, images of Jerusalem and of Moses, engrailed Crosses, and Squares and Compasses abound, along with images depicting Maize and Aloe, chiseled fifty years before Columbus’s famous voyages. These are said to confirm speculation that Sir William’s grandfather, Prince Henry St. Clair, also known as Henry the Navigator, may have reached the New World one hundred years earlier, naming it Novae Scotiae, or New Scotland. It is a testament to days past, a library carved in stone ciphers, an attempt to impart arcane knowledge in something more durable that paper; knowledge hidden in plain sight, to be understood only by those with the intellect to decode it. Even its name “Rosslyn” is significant; the two syllables “Ross” and “Lyn” are Gaelic in origin, “Ross” denotes “ancient knowledge” and “Lyn” meaning “down the ages”. Many claims, superstitions, and theories add to the aura of mystery and intrigue surrounding Rosslyn Chapel. Part of this mystique arises from the known associations of the St. Clair family of Scotland with the Templar and Masonic orders.

  • Appendix As Too Inclusive
    Color profile: Disabled Composite Default screen Appendix I A Chronological List of Cases Involving the Landing of United States Forces to Protect the Lives and Property of Nationals Abroad Prior to World War II* This Appendix contains a chronological list of pre-World War II cases in which the United States landed troops in foreign countries to pro- tect the lives and property of its nationals.1 Inclusion of a case does not nec- essarily imply that the exercise of forcible self-help was motivated solely, or even primarily, out of concern for US nationals.2 In many instances there is room for disagreement as to what motive predominated, but in all cases in- cluded herein the US forces involved afforded some measure of protection to US nationals or their property. The cases are listed according to the date of the first use of US forces. A case is included only where there was an actual physical landing to protect nationals who were the subject of, or were threatened by, immediate or po- tential danger. Thus, for example, cases involving the landing of troops to punish past transgressions, or for the ostensible purpose of protecting na- tionals at some remote time in the future, have been omitted. While an ef- fort to isolate individual fact situations has been made, there are a good number of situations involving multiple landings closely related in time or context which, for the sake of convenience, have been treated herein as sin- gle episodes. The list of cases is based primarily upon the sources cited following this paragraph.
