  • Puerto Rican Recipients of the Navy Cross By: Tony (The Marine) Santiago
    Puerto Rican recipients of the Navy Cross By: Tony (The Marine) Santiago Navy Cross Puerto Ricans have served as members of the United States Armed Forces and have fought in every major conflict in which the United States has been involved from World War I onward. Many Puerto Ricans, including those of Puerto Rican descent, have distinguished themselves during combat as members of the five branches of the U.S. Military, the Army, Marines, Navy, Air Force and the Coast Guard. Five Puerto Ricans have been awarded the United States' highest military decoration — the Medal of Honor, five have been awarded the Navy Cross and fourteen have been awarded the Distinguished Service Cross.[1]. The Navy Cross is the second highest medal that can be awarded by the U.S. Navy and are awarded to members of the U.S. Navy or U.S. Marine Corps for heroism or distinguished service. The following is a list of the five Puerto Ricans awarded the Navy Cross with their citations. On August 2, 1917 Lieutenant Frederick L. Riefkohl of the US Navy became the first known Puerto Rican to be awarded the Navy Cross. World War I Rear Admiral Frederick Lois Riefkohl (U.S. Navy) (February 27, 1889 – September 1969), a native of Maunabo, Puerto Rico was the first Puerto Rican to graduate from the United States Naval Academy. During World War I, Riefkohl was a lieutenant aboard the U.S.S. Philadelphia, when he became engaged in action against an enemy submarine. Riefkohl became the first known Puerto Rican to be awarded the Navy Cross.

  • The Mexican American Vietnam War Serviceman
    THE MEXICAN AMERICAN VIETNAM WAR SERVICEMAN: THE MISSING AMERICAN A Thesis presented to the Faculty of California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in History by Teresa Moreno Jimenez December 2015 © 2015 Teresa Moreno Jimenez ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii COMMITTEE MEMBERSHIP TITLE: The Mexican American Vietnam War Serviceman: The Missing American AUTHOR: Teresa Moreno Jimenez DATE SUBMITTED: December 2015 COMMITTEE CHAIR: Kathleen Murphy, Ph.D. Associate Professor of History COMMITTEE MEMBER: Kathleen Cairns, Ph.D. Lecturer of History COMMITTEE MEMBER: Thomas Trice, Ph.D. Associate Professor of History iii ABSTRACT The Mexican American Vietnam War Serviceman: The Missing American Teresa Moreno Jimenez The Vietnam War brought many changes to society in that it soon became one of the most controversial wars in United States history. There was a tremendous loss of life as well as a rift in the nation with the rise of anti-war protest. Those drafted for the war came primarily from low-income and ethnic minority communities. While all who served deserve to be recognized, there is one group that has gone largely unrepresented in the history of the war. Mexican American servicemen served and died in large numbers when compared to their population. In addition, they also received high honors for their valor in the battlefield. Yet, the history of the war has been largely focused on the experience of the Anglo and Black soldier. This is due in part to the existing black-white paradigm of race that exists in United States society, which places all other ethnic minority groups in the margins of major historical events.
