  • GENERAL BERNARD A. SCHRIEVER AIR FORCE ASSOCIATION LOS ANGELES CHAPTER 147 from the President…
    GENERAL BERNARD A. SCHRIEVER AIR FORCE ASSOCIATION LOS ANGELES CHAPTER 147 From the President…. Dear Members of the AFA General Bernard A. Schriever Los Angeles Chapter: The missions of your Air Force Association are to Educate the public on the importance of Aerospace Power; to Advocate Aerospace Power to the public and to our elected repre- sentatives; and to Support the Air Force and the Air Force family. The Schriever Chapter tends to emphasize the Support mission, through varied forms of philanthropy (AFROTC grants, Enlisted and Company Grade Officer scholarships, donations to the Los Angeles Air Force Spouses’ Club, donations to local high schools competing in AFA’s CyberPatriot initia- tive, and many others), and by annually recognizing the outstanding achievements of the men and women of the Space & Missile Systems Center. This quarter the chapter was very active in both the education and the recognition as- pects of the Support mission, as detailed in several articles below. We honored AFROTC ca- dets at UCLA and Community College of the Air Force (CCAF) graduates at SMC. We pre- sented the Schriever Award to Secretary of the Air Force Michael B. Donley, and a Schriever Fellowship Award to SMC Vice Commander Brig Gen Roger W. Teague, as part of the annual AFA Salute to SMC. In addition, the Chapter Board of Directors elected Marcia Peura to the Board as the new Chapter Secretary, and she is doing a great job. Marcia takes over from Barby Kollenda, who retired from Lockheed Martin and from the Board last year, but volunteered to stay on until we could find a replacement – no small task, as Barby has flawlessly handled a number of disparate tasks for the chapter during her years of service.

  • Conley, James D
    The Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Affairs Oral History Project JAMES D. CONLEY Interviewed by: Charles Stuart Kennedy Initial interview date: January 27, 2000 Copyright 2018 ADST [Note: This interview was not edited by Mr. Conley prior to his death.] Q: Today is the 27th of January, 2000. This is an interview with James D. Conley, being done on behalf of the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training, and I am Charles Stuart Kennedy. Jim and I are old friends, having served together back in the sixties in Belgrade. Jim, could you tell me when and where you were born and something about your family? CONLEY: I was born in Chicago, Illinois on October 5, 1928. My family were native Chicagoans. I have three brothers and a sister. We grew up on the north side of Chicago. I attended parochial schools, St. George High School in Evanston. It was a very happy time in my life. Q: What was your father’s background? CONLEY: My father served in the First World War. He did not attend college. He had a great ability with figures. He was one of the youngest commissioned officers in the First World War. In fact, he was commissioned on his birthday. He couldn’t have been younger than that, because he was like the administrative officer of the battalion that he was with. When he came out of the army he wound up as the inside man of a small insurance brokerage agency in Chicago, which later became substantial. He did that the rest of his life.

Memorial Tributes: Volume 15 LEW ALLEN, JR. 1925–2010 Elected in 1978 “For pioneering work in combining technologies of space and information processing to strengthen the nation.” BY JOHN R. CASANI LEW ALLEN, JR.—a towering figure in all respects—died on January 4, 2010, at his home in Potomac Falls, Virginia. He devoted 36 years of service to the nation in the U.S. Air Force, becoming a four-star general and the tenth U.S. Air Force chief of staff. When he retired from the Air Force in 1982, he agreed to become director of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). In 1990 he left JPL and served as chairman of the board of the Charles Stark Draper Laboratory in Boston. Throughout his long and productive life, Lew Allen, Jr., was recognized and honored not only for his technical knowledge but also for his wide-ranging intelligence, great integrity, and profound vision. He possessed strong, engaging leadership qualities—a “steady steel hand in a velvet glove,” as one colleague put it. Lew Allen was born in Miami, Florida, on September 30, 1925, and grew up in Gainesville, Texas. He entered the U.S. Military Academy at West Point in 1943, graduating in 1946 with a bachelor of science degree, a commission as a second lieutenant, and pilot wings. After completing multiengine flight training, he was assigned to Strategic Air Command’s 7th Bombardment Group at Fort Worth Army Airfield (later renamed Carswell Air Force Base), where he flew B-29s and B-36s and served in positions related to nuclear weaponry.

    Library of Congress Interview with Frank S. Ruddy The Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Affairs Oral History Project AMBASSADOR FRANK S. RUDDY Interviewed by: Charles Stuart Kennedy Initial interview date: September 9, 1991 Copyright 1998 ADST Q: Today is September 9, 1991 and this is an interview with Ambassador Frank S. Ruddy on behalf of the Association for Diplomatic Studies and I am Charles Stuart Kennedy. Mr. Ambassador I wonder if you would give me a little of your background—where were you born, brought up and your education. RUDDY: I was born in New York in 1937 in Jamaica, New York and went to St. Joan of Arc grammar school in Jackson Heights, New York. St Joan's has a number of famous alumni/ae such as John Guare whose play “Six Degrees of Separation” is all the rage on Broadway; Father Tim Healy, the president of Georgetown, and on and on. I went to a Jesuit high school, Xavier, in the city. To New Yorkers “the city” is always Manhattan. I went to college at Holy Cross in Worcester. During that period the Jesuit high schools in the city (there were five of them) would not recommend students or send their transcripts to non-Catholic colleges. (West Point, Annapolis and MIT were exceptions). I completed my military obligation with The Marines (I was discharged with the exalted rank of corporal). After the Marines I got a Master's in English from N.Y.U. and taught English to pay my way through law school. I began teaching in high school and going to law school at night and in the summer and then I got to teach in college.
