    A Sailor's Life in the New Steel Navy Home Page Banner Credits: Navy Logo from cover of Lawrence, W.J. The United States Navy Illustrated. New York, NY: The Continent Publishing Company, 1898. Sailor images from Naval History and Heritage Command, NH 94006 and NH 101116 At the dawn of the 20thwww.steelnavy.org century, the United States Navy was in the midst of a revolutionary technological transformation. The obsolete wooden sailing ships of the post-Civil War Navy, with their underpowered auxiliary steam engines, were swept away, and replaced by steel-hulled warships with powerful steam engines. This New Steel Navy was the first step in the long process that would eventually lead the United States Navy to a position of world dominance. This website examines the lives of the men who made that transformation possible – the officers and enlisted sailors of the Navy. They lived a life that was rugged and frequently dangerous, a life that was transformed by the new technologies of the ships they served on. They fought battles at sea, and even on land. They existed in a physically claustrophobic, yet socially divided world that adhered to naval traditions both old and new. They endured these hardships, and enjoyed brief moments of fun whenever possible. Pay a visit to an often overlooked moment in time, and get to know the sailors of the New Steel Navy.

  • Rear Admiral Charles H. Stockton, the Naval War College, and the Law of Naval Warfare
    Rear Admiral Charles H. Stockton, the Naval War College, and the Law of Naval Warfare John Hattendorf INCE ITS FOUNDING IN 1884, the U.S. Naval War College has played a § role in the study and formulation of the law of armed conflict. Many distinguished scholars and lawyers have taught, researched, and written studies in this field at the College. The roll call of its professors of international law includes such distinguished scholars as John Bassett Moore, George Grafton Wilson, Manley o. Hudson, Hans Kelsen, Thomas Mallison, and Howard Levie. Many of the most well~known names are those of scholars who held the position as a parHime appointment and worked at the Naval War College for a few months each year, while also holding chairs at major civilian universities. This policy changed only in July 1951, when the Secretary of the Navy created the College's first two full~time civilian academic appointments: a professor of history and a professor of international law. For many years both were normally held by visiting scholars for a one or two~year period. On 6 October 1967 the College named the law position the Charles H. Stockton Chair ofInternational Law.1 In attaching the name of Stockton to one of its oldest and most prestigious academic chairs, the Naval War College remembered a naval officer who was a key figure in its own institutional history as well as an important figure in the development of the law of naval warfare. Today, the prestigious Stockton Chair at the Naval War College, and Stockton Hall, the home of the Law School at The George Washington University in Stockton, the War College and the Law Washington, D.C., are the principal tokens of his memory and his achievements.

  • THE JERSEYMAN 6 Years - Nr
    4th Quarter 2008 "Rest well, yet sleep lightly and hear the call, if again sounded, to provide firepower for freedom…” THE JERSEYMAN 6 Years - Nr. 60 "Remember Pearl Harbor--Keep America Alert. Eternal Vigilance is the Price of Liberty." (Motto: Pearl Harbor Survivors) ―Can you believe the date of August 2008? Time does fly-by, and the older that we Pearl Harbor Survivors get. An important date for me will be on August 4th, when this writer of sorts hits that 89 mark, and hopefully reaches 90 in August of next year… Before you know it, December 7th will again be here and another reminder of that day of infamy on December 7, 1941. We PHS and WWII veterans have kept alive the many deeds and sacrifices we gave to win World War II. We have kept faith with all those many buried in remote islands all across the South Pacific, as they died by the thousands to take those islands in the Pacific, and the battles in the Atlantic and on other seas. Those bodies are still there, encased in tombs inside of sunken ships all over the world. We also remember the many still in their submarines, and sunken Merchant Marine ships. The many flyers whose final resting place was in the deep ocean, as their flaming planes crashed into the seas and remote jungles all over the world. And last, but not least, approximately 2,400 killed in the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor December 7, 1941, with hundreds of their bodies still in their ships sunk at Pearl.
