Wilderness Hero 3
Arthur Carhart National Wilderness Training Center’s Wilderness Investigations High School Wilderness Hero #3 John F. Kennedy President John F. Kennedy; 35th U.S. President (No copyright indicated) Common Core Standard Connections Standards addressed will vary depending on how the teacher chooses to approach the lesson and/or activities. Instructions for the teacher: Rarely, if ever, is one individual responsible for the hard work and vision involved in bringing about wilderness legislation, specific wilderness designation, or wilderness management. The 35th President of the United States, John F. Kennedy, was an important player in the ultimate success of the Wilderness Act of 1964 (signed into law the year after his untimely death). John F. Kennedy is the focus of this Wilderness Hero spotlight. To help students get to know this amazing wilderness hero, choose one or more of the following: • Photocopy and hand out Wilderness Hero Sheet #3 to each student. 143 o Based on the information found there, have them write a short news article about John F. Kennedy and his role in the story of designated wilderness. • From the list of wilderness quotes found within Wilderness Hero Sheet #3, have students select one or more, copy the quote, and then interpret what the quote(s) means to them. • Use the handout as the basis of a short mini-lesson about John F. Kennedy and wilderness. • Have students research John F. Kennedy’s presidency and from their findings create a timeline showing important events taking place during President Kennedy’s administration (January 1961 – November 1963). o This was a time of significant national and world events (Cuban Missile Crisis, civil rights movement, early Viet Nam War involvement, financial challenges, etc.).

Ponton In 1960, John F. Kennedy, a wealthy New England Catholic, traveled to a rural, Protestant state to contend in an election that few thought he could win. While many scholars have examined the impact of Kennedy’s victory in the West Virginia primary, few have analyzed the importance that his visit to the state in 1960 and his ensuing administration had on West Virginia. Kennedy enacted a number of policies directed specifically toward relieving the poverty that had plagued West Virginia since statehood.

The ICRC and the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, Le CICR Et La Crise
RICR Juin IRRC June 2001 Vol. 83 No 842 287 The ICRC and the 1962 Cuban missile crisis by Thomas Fischer n 6 November 1962, the Swiss ambassador and former President of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), Paul Rüegger, embarked on a delicate mission to negotiate with the United Nations OSecretary-General and the representatives of the two superpowers and Cuba in New York. His task was to specify and obtain prior acceptance of the conditions under which the ICRC was prepared to lend its good offices to the United Nations and the parties involved in the Cuban missile crisis, so as to help ease the tension that had arisen from the secret introduction of Soviet nuclear weapons in the Caribbean. This article deals with the unusual role the ICRC was ready to play in that crisis and sheds new light on how it came to be engaged in these highly political matters. New American, Soviet and Cuban sources that have become known since 1990 reveal in great detail the events surround- ing the planned ICRC intervention in the missile crisis. It is a story that has so far remained untold. Most of the new material is to be found in the microfiche collection of declassified documents on the Cuban missile crisis compiled and made available by the National Thomas Fischer is a Ph.D. candidate at the Department of Political Science, University of Zurich, Switzerland, and a research assistant at the Center for International Studies (CIS), Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Zurich. 288 The ICRC and the 1962 Cuban missile crisis Security Archive, a private research institution in Washington DC.1 The collection also contains the relevant documents of the United Nations Archives in New York.

Dallas, November 1963
Dallas, November 1963 A television documentary November 22, 2013 will mark the fiftieth anniversary of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in Dallas, Texas—perhaps the most infamous single event of the twentieth century. Dallas, November 1963 observes the anniversary by looking back on the world-altering assassination from the perspective of a young surgeon at Dallas’s Parkland Memorial Hospital who worked valiantly to save the president’s life. Dr. Kenneth Salyer, who has gone on to become an internationally renowned reconstructive plastic surgeon, recounts in riveting detail the events of that infamous day, the nature of the president’s injuries, and his startling medical insights into the reality of what occurred at Dallas’s Dealey Plaza when the president was shot. For half a century, historians, journalists, forensic scientists, and amateur investigators have tried to determine conclusively whether assassin Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone or as part of a conspiracy. Numerous theories continue assert that there must have been a second gunman, yet if in fact there was one, his identity has to be considered perhaps the best-kept secret of all time. One of the several surgeons who worked valiantly to keep the president alive, Dr. Salyer believes— and argues forcefully—that the very heavy leather back brace the president wore because of injuries he sustained in World War II (and which Dr. Salyer personally cut away) factored directly, even decisively, in the president’s death. Dr. Salyer contends that the brace kept the president rigidly upright following the first, non-lethal bullet wound to his neck.

22 November 1963: Where Were You?
22 November 1963: Where Were You? Our Class had a unique relationship with President John F. Kennedy. He became president when we became upper class. He was a Navy Man, war hero, skipper of PT- 109. He loved football and the Army-Navy game. We lost our ‘rubbers’ when we marched in his Inaugural Parade, and we lost our innocence on 22 November 1963. Our experiences that day were unique, and for the first time since throwing our hats in Halsey Field House five months earlier, we were all unified via a single event. What is your story? Where were you when you first heard that the President had been assassinated? Our classmates contributed the following memories. Ron Walters (6th Co): I remember that day. I was on the USS Cromwell (DE- 1014) off the coast of Brazil when President Kennedy was assassinated. Mike Blackledge (4th Co): I had just returned from [grad school] math class at North Carolina State and as I came through the quadrangle, I heard the radios reporting from the open windows of the dormitories. I received a second shock when one of the undergrads called out, “Hey, I wonder what Jackie’s doing tonight?” Two different worlds. Bob Lagassa (2nd Co): I will never forget that day. I, along with a large group of '63 classmates, was in the middle of a typical Submarine School day of study and lectures at SubBase New London when we heard the fateful news. We were stunned, shocked, angry, tearful! Classes were suspended the remainder of the day and we went to our loved ones for consolation.

13 Introduction to the Statutes and Regulations
INTRODUCTION TO THE STATUTES AND REGULATIONS The last consolidation of the statutes and regulations of the Univer sity, which came into operation on 25th October 1961, may be found in the 1961 University Calendar. The present volume contains the statutes and regulations in force incorporating Governor's Paper No. 821. Anno tations appear at the end of each statute or regulation which has been enacted or amended since the consolidation. The annotations show the date of coming into operation of every enactment or amendment made since the consolidation, other than amendments of any section (or paragraph etc. as explained in the following paragraph) which has, since that amendment, been repealed in its entirety. References in the annotations are to sections of statutes and regula tions, except in the case of statutes 2.4.1, 2.5.1 and 3.5.1, and the schedules to regulations 6.72 and 7,75 which are respectively annotated to the level of paragraphs (S.2.4.1 and S.2.5.1), sub-paragraphs (S.3.5.1) and serial numbers (schedules to regulations 6.72 and 7.75). It should be stressed that the dates shown are the dates in which particular enactments came into operation in their present form but not in principle. To talce a simple example: The degree of master of Business AoSriinistration was instituted by the enactment of regulation 3.70 on 3rd February 1963. That regulation was wholly repealed and re-enacted with amendments on 16th March 1966. Accordingly the later date is shown in the annotation as the date of coming into operation of the regulation in its present form; but the earlier date is the date of the institution of the degree.
