  • The Pillars of American Grand Strategy in World War II by Tami Davis Biddle
    Leveraging Strength: The Pillars of American Grand Strategy in World War II by Tami Davis Biddle Tami Davis Biddle is the Hoyt S. Vandenberg Chair of Aerospace Studies at the U.S. Army War College in Carlisle, PA. She is the author of Rhetoric and Reality in Air Warfare: The Evolution of British and American Thinking about Strategic Bombing, 1914–1945, and is at work on a new book titled, Taking Command: The United States at War, 1944–1945. This article is based on a lecture she delivered in March 2010 in The Hertog Program on Grand Strategy, jointly sponsored by Temple University’s Center for Force and Diplomacy, and FPRI. Abstract: This article argues that U.S. leaders navigated their way through World War II challenges in several important ways. These included: sustaining a functional civil-military relationship; mobilizing inside a democratic, capitalist paradigm; leveraging the moral high ground ceded to them by their enemies; cultivating their ongoing relationship with the British, and embra- cing a kind of adaptability and resiliency that facilitated their ability to learn from mistakes and take advantage of their enemies’ mistakes. ooking back on their World War II experience from the vantage point of the twenty-first century, Americans are struck, first of all, by the speed L with which everything was accomplished: armies were raised, fleets of planes and ships were built, setbacks were overcome, and great victories were won—all in a mere 45 months. Between December 1941 and August 1945, Americans faced extraordinary challenges and accepted responsibilities they had previously eschewed.

  • Historical Materials in the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library
    HISTORICAL MATERIALS IN THE FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY AND MUSEUM NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND RECORDS ADMINISTRATION April 2011 FOREWORD It seems to me that the dedication of a library is in itself an act of faith. To bring together the records of the past and to house them in buildings where they will be preserved for the use of men and women in the future, a Nation must believe in three things. It must believe in the past. It must believe in the future. It must, above all, believe in the capacity of its own people so to learn from the past that they can gain in judgement in creating their own future. ...This latest addition to the archives of America is dedicated at a moment when government of the people by themselves is being attacked everywhere. It is, therefore, proof - if any proof is needed - that our confidence in the future of democracy has not diminished in this Nation and will not diminish. Franklin D. Roosevelt Remarks at the dedication of the Franklin D. Roosevelt Library. June 30, 1941 This is a list of holdings of the Franklin D. Roosevelt Library. Included are the President's personal and family papers, papers covering his public career at the state and national level, those of Eleanor Roosevelt, as well as those of many of his associates in public and private life. The Library, a gift to the American people from the President, had its beginnings in 1939 when Franklin Roosevelt turned over to the Government 16 acres of the family estate at Hyde Park.

    Ch.35 – Origins of World War II EQ: Could World War II have been prevented? 35.1 – Coach Schroeder reads introduction 34. 2 – Write down all 3 problems and choose 1 solution per problem to copy. (I’m writing all 3, personally) 35.3-8 – Paste your pictures in your notebook like it described on the handout. Then write the opportunities and hardships. Section 2 – On the Front Side of a sheet of paper. Fill in the boxes you create on a page in your IAN. Copy the PROBLEM. (YOU ONLY HAVE TO COPY ONE bullet per problem, but I’m WRITING ALL BULLETS, SO I GET SMARTER!) Problem: The economy needed to be converted from consumer production to military production. • The government created a new agency (the War Production Board) to manage the conversion and to mobilize businesses behind the war effort. • Various industries switched from producing consumer goods to producing military weapons and machinery. • The National War Labor Board settled labor disputes before they disrupted the production of war goods. Problem: The government needed large amounts of money to fight the war. • The Revenue Act of 1942 increased individual and corporate income tax rates and more than tripled the number of individuals required to pay income tax. • To make tax collection easier, Congress devised a system of withholding a certain amount from every paycheck and sending it directly to the government. • The government borrowed money from banks and other financial institutions. • The government issued war savings bonds to raise cash from the American people. Problem: Inflation and overconsumption threatened the economy.
