  • Mexicans and World War II 45
    Mexicans and World War II 45 Mexicans and World War II: Change and Continuity Matthew Lesh Third Year Undergraduate, University of Melbourne ‘They served us beer but not food [at the drive-in movie theatre]. They told us, ‘No, we don’t serve Mexicans’, World War II veteran Natividad Campos recalled, ‘I felt pretty bad because I felt I was just as American as anybody else’.1 Campos’ experience reflected that of thousands of Mexican Americans trying to belong in a world in which they were considered non-white and consequently plagued by discrimination.2 This challenge of belonging encapsulated the Mexican American wartime experience. On the home front Mexicans stood out as patriotic supporters of the war effort. They took up various jobs in war industry, migrated to America to work in agriculture, and raised money to buy war bonds. In the military, Mexican Americans excelled in various capacities, served in combat roles out of proportion to their numbers, and received more decorations for bravery than any other ethnic group.3 During the war, Mexican Americans experienced changes in treatment and an increase in opportunity. Nevertheless, discrimination continued in education, the workplace, restaurants, in public facilities, and in housing. World War II was a turning point in which Mexican Americans were invigorated to fight against this injustice following the clash of an increased sense of self-worth, created by the contribution to the war effort, and the ongoing experience of racism.4 This article investigates this turning point by exploring the experiences of Mexican Americans before, during, and after World War II.

  • List of Hispanic Medal of Honor Recipients 1 List of Hispanic Medal of Honor Recipients
    List of Hispanic Medal of Honor recipients 1 List of Hispanic Medal of Honor recipients The Medal of Honor was created during the American Civil War and is the highest military decoration presented by the United States government to a member of its armed forces. The recipient must have distinguished themselves at the risk of their own life above and beyond the call of duty in action against an enemy of the United States. Due to the nature of this medal, it is commonly presented posthumously.[1] Forty-three men of Hispanic heritage have been awarded the Medal of Honor. Of the forty-three Medals of Honor presented to Hispanics, two were presented to members of the United States Navy, thirteen to members of the United States Marine Corps and twenty-eight to members of the United States Army. Twenty-five Medals of Honor were presented posthumously.[2] The first recipient was Corporal Joseph H. De Castro of the Union Army for Reverse of the Medal of Honor awarded his actions at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania on July 3, 1863, during the American to Seaman John Ortega Civil War and the most recent recipient was Captain Humbert Roque Versace who was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor on July 8, 2002, by President George W. Bush. Corporal De Castro was a member of the Massachusetts Infantry, a militia that was not part of the "regular" army; however, Private David Bennes Barkley was a member of the regular army during World War I and has been recognized as the Army's first Hispanic Medal of Honor recipient.[3] In 1864, Seaman John Ortega became the first Hispanic member of the U.S.

Washington, D.C. 20240 Attn: Mr. Jeffrey Small, jeffrcv small(q ios.doi.gov Re: State of Texas Response to July 21 Letter on National Garden of American Heroes Task Force Dear Secretary Bernhardt: Thank you for the opportunity to contribute to the Task Force created in response to President Donald Trump's Executive Order on Building and Rebuilding Monuments to American Heroes. Like our President, I have great respect for our country's remarkable history as well as for the historical figures and heroes who laid the foundation for our lives as Americans and as Texans today. Rest assured Texans share in this sentiment to preserve and honor our history. In response to your request on July 21, 2020, for recommendations related to the creation of a National Garden of American Heroes, I reached out to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) regarding locations of natural beauty in Texas to be considered as potential sites for the garden. I also sought input from the Texas Historical Commission (THC) regarding statues or monuments to donate or loan to the garden, and tasked THC with creating a list of distinguished individuals from Texas history to be considered for recognition in the garden. The response from TPWD is enclosed. The department believes several reservoirs with associated parks and recreational land in the Dallas and Fort Worth areas to be best suited for the purpose of the national garden.

  • To Illuminate the American Story for All to Illuminate the American Story for All MAY 2011
    National Museum National FINAL REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES TO ILLUMINATE THE AMERICAN American Latino STORY FOR ALL FINAL REPORT 2011 THE YEAR TWO THOUSAND AND ELEVEN TO IlluMINATE THE AMERIcan STORY FOR ALL TO IlluMINATE THE AMERIcan STORY FOR ALL MAY 2011 We the People of the United States, simple words from our Constitution that for over two hundred years have symbolized the bond between the federal government and all of our citizens. It is this ideal that has inspired the conversation between the American people and we the members of the National Museum of the American Latino Commission, who were tasked to answer the question of whether there should be a National Museum that reflects the contributions of Latinos to every aspect of American History and Culture. The answer is abundantly clear. Yes. The time has come for the creation of a new museum on the National Mall, the place where our nation’s most important monuments are located, where we conduct the business of our Congress, pay tribute to our veterans, gather to inaugurate our Presidents and where we give full voice to our freedom of speech. The Mall, more than any other public space in our country does indeed tell the story of America, and yet that story is not complete. There must also be a living monument that recognizes that Latinos were here well before 1776 and that in this new century, the future is increasingly Latino, more than fifty million people and growing. We believe strongly that this new museum should be a part of the Smithsonian Institution, to be known as The Smithsonian American Latino Museum.
