Although the island became a military stronghold in the 1790's, Vikings probably landed as early as the 10th century, when they were carried there by wind and current. Later, the island's existence was common knowledge among European fishermen, who called the land on their maps Bacca- laos (cod) in tribute to the silvery fish which drew them across the Atlantic Ocean. Fishing expeditions were greatly encour­ aged by the voyages of exploration at the end of the 15th century. John Cabot from England in 1497 and 1498, and Jacgues Cartier, from France in 1534, acclaimed the natural wealth of the Grand Banks off New­ foundland. As the fishing industry grew its methods changed. Fleets had been leaving Europe in the spring and returning in the autumn, but in the 16th century some fishermen began to winter in Newfoundland, building smaii settlements along the coast.

Two groups of about forty each, one in Camel and one in Cold Spring, have spent six evenings in group study and discussion. We sought to do four things: (1) to limit aur study to before 1783 (this enabled us to sharpen our historic sense); (2) to locate historic sites and persons, and to select the nost important; (3) to become familiar with the established historic materials, and to locate new materids; and for each nember of the group (4) to relive a bit of the past, and to share it with others. The individual con- tributions have totaled more than forty. The interest was keen, The demand for another 9vork shopn next fall vhs certain, Those who have gone out of their way to make this "work shop" a success, and this publication a reality, include: the County Supervisors a~dYe, Paul Lun:ielius for the use of The Coun%y Building; Supervising Principal ilobert Kristeller and the Camel School fop a Class Ram, the Futnai County Hist~ricalSmiety fcr sponsoring the I Cold.

  • JOINT and COMBINED OPERATIONS on the HUDSON RIVER, 1777 and 1781
    NAVAL WAR COLLEGE Newport, R.I. “MAKING THE BEST USE OF YOUR JOINT FORCES”: JOINT AND COMBINED OPERATIONS ON THE HUDSON RIVER, 1777 and 1781 by James M. Johnson Colonel, U.S. Army JOINT AND COMBINED OPERATIONS ON THE HUDSON RIVER, 1777 and 1781 James M. Johnson, Colonel, U.S. Army, 1995 Abstract of “MAKING THE BEST USE OF YOUR JOINT FORCES”: JOINT AND COMBINED OPERATIONS ON THE HUDSON RIVER, 1777 AND 1781 British, French, and American commanders in the American Revolution understood the concepts of allied, joint, and amphibious operations. These operations fit within a defensive strategy that General George Washington and Lieutenant General Sir Henry Clinton practiced for most of the war: a war of posts with New York City and the “line of the Hudson” as the “seat of the war.” Through their experiences in the wars of the mid- eighteeth century the British developed sophisticated doctrine and practices for joint, amphibious operations. Because of this joint doctrine, Clinton and Commodore William Hotham were able to conduct a series of classic, amphibious landings to capture the fortifications of the Hudson Highlands in October 1777 and even burn the New York capital at Kingston. After a disastrous joint campaign in 1777, with French support and guidance, Washington and Lieutenant General Rochambeau threatened New York City with a joint expedition in the summer of 1781. While the Allied, joint forces failed to capture New York City, they later trapped the army of Lieutenant General Charles, Lord Cornwallis at Yorktown in the last significant campaign of the war. ii JOINT AND COMBINED OPERATIONS ON THE HUDSON RIVER, 1777 and 1781 James M.

The most significant River Food Chains successful was the Great Chain, constructed from West Point inand used through after River Food Chains war's end. The huge links for the chains were forged at iron works in Orange County, New York. Both the Americans and British knew that passage on the Hudson River was strategically important to the war effort. Americans worked to devise plans to slow or block ship passage on the river, planning to attack enemy ships by cannons and mortar located at existing defensive forts or those to be constructed. In late Henry Wisnera resident of Goshen, New York and one of New York's representatives to the Continental Congressalong with Gilbert Livingstonsounded the Hudson River and, as part of a Secret Committee of the " Committee of Safety ," recommended the placement of chains in strategic locations along the Hudson. The Americans eventually constructed such obstacles across the river at northern Manhattan, between forts Washington and Lee in ; at the newly constructed Fort Montgomery on the West Bank on Popolopen Creek in — south of West Point ; a partially completed one at Pollepel Island in — north of West Point ; and the Great Chain — between West Point and Constitution Island.
