  • Bob Steinman ______
    Transcription: Bob Steinman ________________________________________________________________ Today is Thursday, March 1st, 2012. My name is James Crabtree. This morning I’ll be interviewing Mr. Bob Steinman. This interview is taking place in person at the Armed Forces Museum here at Camp Mabry, in Austin, Texas, and it’s being conducted in support of the Texas Veterans Land Board Voices of Veterans Oral History Program. Sir, thank you for taking the time to talk to us today. Bob Steinman: I appreciate you coming out. Yes sir, well it’s an honor for us. The first question I always like to start with is to ask you to tell us a little bit about your childhood and your life before you went into the military. Bob Steinman: Well, I grew up in Waco, Texas. My brother was in World War II. He was on the Destroyer Pacific with Halsey’s taskforce, and I guess that’s where I kind of got my hankering to join the Navy there. Not only Waco was and is kind of a blah place, so I decided it was time to try to get out and see the world a little bit. But I graduated from Waco High School and then after that, I was going to go to college, but the parents didn’t have the finances and everything like that, and so I started working with a paint and wallpaper store and I ended up within a year I was the assistant manager and then went on to manager of that. I graduated from high school when I was just barely 16.

FROM MEMORY TO HONOR: STORIES OF SOUTH CAROLINA'S WORLD WAR MONUMENTS A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts History by Amy Michelle Matthews August 2008 Accepted by: Dr. Steven G. Marks, Committee Chair Dr. Paul C. Anderson Dr. Richard Saunders, Jr. ABSTRACT Out of the South‟s defeat in the Civil War emerged proponents of the Lost Cause and a desire to remember and perpetuate the South‟s honor in the war. This desire to commemorate fallen loved ones and to preserve their memory continued into the twentieth century, most notably the era following the First and Second World Wars. Based on the South‟s strong sense of military tradition and remembrance established after the Civil War, a scholarly debate has emerged in recent decades over the meaning of military commemorations and monuments. One side of the argument views World War I commemorations as a continuation of traditional ways of understanding war and remembering the fallen.
