Garland : A Forgotten Soldier: The Life and Times of Major General Harry Hill Bandholtz before purchasing it in order to gage whether or not it would be worth my time, and all praised A Forgotten Soldier: The Life and Times of Major General Harry Hill Bandholtz: 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Father of the Modern Army MP CorpsBy CJ WestwickMr. Garland has meticulously researched the life and times of Major General Harry Bandholtz in this thought-provoking biography. If any single man created and formulated the modern U.S. Army Military Police Corps it was Major General Bandholtz. He was the prime mover in making the MP Corps, Provost Marshal Offices and the Division of Criminal Investigation viable and necessary entities in the U.S. Army. Bandholtz began his military law enforcement career as head of the Constabulary that he created in occupied Philippines. As Director of Constabulary, he helped enforce the often-dangerous and devious native tribes throughout the Philippines. Mr. Garland tells us how Harry Bandholtz negotiated peace and truces in many violent situations -- both civilian and military -- in a wide variety of foreign nations. It is intriguing that in helping the Hungarians during their occupation by the Romanians after World war I, Harry Bandholtz became a true national hero in Hungary. In fact, a statue of Major General Bandholtz was erected and still stands in Budapest, where he is revered as an American icon by the Magyars. Anyone interested in the military, the U.S. Army Military Police and heroic military personalities must read this story of "a forgotten soldier" who was more memorable and honored in other nations than in his own United States. Harry observed, He resorted to all sorts of evasions and circumlocutions, which may have been intentional or may have been due to his grade of intelligence, which appears to be about that of a comatose caribou. About the AuthorThe author loves research, especially involving his life career. A retired military criminal investigator, he carried his law enforcement credentials into the civilian forensic science field. Trained by the Army in forensic ballistics, he remained in this field until 1995. Living in Sun City Center, Florida, with his wife of 40+ years, he writes on military and police subjects.

Simon Major General Harry Hill Bandholtz was America’s representative to the Inter-Allied Supreme Command’s Military Mission in Hungary at the end of World War I. Before the first world war, Bandholtz was Chief of the American Constabulary in the Philippines from 1907 until 1913. During WWI Bandholtz was the Provost Marshal General in General Pershing’s American Expeditionary Forces in France. His organization, 463 officers and 15,912 men, was the world’s largest military police command at the time. Directing it was a huge responsibility. Despite his qualifications and experience, his six-month assignment to Budapest was apparently the most frustrating encounter in General Bandholtz’s distinguished military career.

    “‘WHITE MISRULE’: TERROR AND POLITICAL VIOLENCE DURING HUNGARY’S LONG WORLD WAR I, 1919-1924” By Emily R.

CEU eTD Collection Abstract The early post-armistice period in Hungary was marked by defeat, military occupation, successive democratic and communist revolutions, and finally a counter- revolution that ended with the consolidation of the authoritarian conservative regency of Admiral Miklós Horthy. An important dimension of this political upheaval was the so- called White Terror, which included violence and legal persecution to punish, marginalize and even remove those persons officials regarded as dangerous to the Hungarian state. Many of the victims, especially those groups and individuals regarded as particularly “dangerous,” namely leftists and Jews, did not regard the White Terror as solely a discreet set of acts perpetrated by militias.

  • An Undiplomatic Diary
    AN UNDIPLOMATIC DIARY BY THE AMERICAN MEMBER OF THE INTER-ALLIED MILITARY MISSION TO HUNGARY · 1919-1920 MAJ. GEN. HARRY HILL BANDHOLTZ, U. S. A. EDITED BY FRITZ-KONRAD KRUGER PROFESSOR OF POLITICAL SCIENCE WITTENBERG COLLEGE NEW YORK MCMXXXIII COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY PRESS Copyright 1933 COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY PRESS Published 1933 2 Editor’s Preface This Diary of the late Maj. Gen. Harry Hill Bandholtz was not written for publication. However, when I happened to see it, I recognized its importance as a historical document of the World War period and was happy to secure from the widow of General Bandholtz, Mrs. Inez Clair Bandholtz, permission to make the contents of the Diary available to students of history and diplomacy. I believe that the Diary is a monument to an upright, fair-minded and humane American, who has represented the best type of his countrymen in an unfortunate land. The attitude and activity of General Bandholtz in Hungary may, mutatis mutandis, be compared to that of Gen. H. T. Allen in Germany. I wish to express my appreciation to Mrs. Inez Clair Bandholtz, whose support in editing this Diary was valuable to me. Special credit is due to Miss Georgia W. Read, of the Columbia University Press, for many helpful suggestions and for her fine coöperation in the editing of this book.
