City of Houston As an Architect, Ultimately Resulting in His Being Appointed City Architect TEXAS FIGHT The History of Naval ROTC at The University of Texas at Austin Volume II 1960 - 1980 Edwin W. Mergele, III, CDR USN (Ret) TEXAS FIGHT The History of Naval ROTC at The University of Texas at Austin Volume II 1960 - 1980 Edwin W. Mergele, III, CDR USN (Ret) Copyright © 2014. All rights reserved. DEDICATION This work is dedicated to my father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Edwin W. Mergele, Jr., who both majored in history at The University of Texas and inspired in me an appreciation for that subject. Dad served in the Coast Guard (under the Department of the Navy) during WWII, in the Atlantic and Pacific theaters, and was recalled by the Navy for the Korean War. He instilled in me an appreciation for the sea services and, in general, service to my country. I especially recognize the WWII NROTC alumni at Texas, many of whom it’s been my privilege to become personally acquainted with, and many of whom helped me document the early years of the unit. Lastly, to all the other men and women who have stood the watch to preserve our liberty and freedom, I also dedicate this work. Foreword TEXAS FIGHT, The History of Naval ROTC at The University of Texas at Austin is an engrossing account of the Unit’s history, and we are indebted to Ed Mergele for the research, dedication and determination leading to publication. So to Ed we say Bravo Zulu, the signal flags for “WELL DONE.” He is to be especially commended for resurrecting the history of the classes 1947-50, a time of transition from wartime to peacetime. Almost overnight, uniforms changed to civilian clothing and the student goal was to finish one’s degree plan, graduate, get a job, start a family and lay the foundation for living happily ever after. The exceptions were those who had chosen the Navy as a career, very few in fact, and who were viewed by many as strange. Today they perhaps would have been identified as thinking outside the box! Our population then was about 130 million in the U.S. Ed’s book captures the spirit of the times, and one reads the book and is reminded of the marvelous experience of student life at the time. We had won the war, all the bad guys were being held accountable, the job market offered many opportunities, and the Nation was happy! Today our population is about 320 million, on its way to 500 million by the end of the century. Ed’s book is a time capsule and helps us to recall that Texas is a great state true to its pioneering heritage, and a beacon of independence and freedom. Kenneth G.

Macron Receives Kenya’s Kenyatta as France Looks to Expand into Anglophone East Africa by Morgan Artvukhina Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta traveled to Paris earlier this week to seal the deal on a new highway, the latest of several joint economic projects. However, France isn’t just talking to Kenya, it’s expanding its influence across East Africa, an area outside its traditional sphere of influence on the continent. Kenyatta and French President Emmanuel Macron are set to finalize plans for construction of a 233-kilometer four-lane highway from the Kenyan capital of Nairobi to Mau Summit, greatly alleviating traffic congestion along one of the country’s primary travel arteries. The public-private partnership will see Kenya National Highways Authority partner with a French consortium of Vinci Highways SAS, Meridian Infrastructure Africa Fund, and Vinci Concessions SAS to build, operate, and maintain the highway for the next 30 years for 160 billion Kenyan shillings ($1.48 billion), according to Nairobi daily The Star. It will be a toll road. The project will also include widening the existing road along that route. Some of Vinci’s other work includes the A7-2 Motorway in Germany and the M11 Neva Highway in Russia. Kenyatta and Macron also discussed helping Kenya to manufacture vaccines locally, something Nairobi became more interested in after supplies of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccines from India were interrupted in May, as COVID-19 cases exploded in that country.
