  • THE PHILIPPINES, 1942-1944 James Kelly Morningstar, Doctor of History
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: WAR AND RESISTANCE: THE PHILIPPINES, 1942-1944 James Kelly Morningstar, Doctor of History, 2018 Dissertation directed by: Professor Jon T. Sumida, History Department What happened in the Philippine Islands between the surrender of Allied forces in May 1942 and MacArthur’s return in October 1944? Existing historiography is fragmentary and incomplete. Memoirs suffer from limited points of view and personal biases. No academic study has examined the Filipino resistance with a critical and interdisciplinary approach. No comprehensive narrative has yet captured the fighting by 260,000 guerrillas in 277 units across the archipelago. This dissertation begins with the political, economic, social and cultural history of Philippine guerrilla warfare. The diverse Islands connected only through kinship networks. The Americans reluctantly held the Islands against rising Japanese imperial interests and Filipino desires for independence and social justice. World War II revealed the inadequacy of MacArthur’s plans to defend the Islands. The General tepidly prepared for guerrilla operations while Filipinos spontaneously rose in armed resistance. After his departure, the chaotic mix of guerrilla groups were left on their own to battle the Japanese and each other. While guerrilla leaders vied for local power, several obtained radios to contact MacArthur and his headquarters sent submarine-delivered agents with supplies and radios that tie these groups into a united framework. MacArthur’s promise to return kept the resistance alive and dependent on the United States. The repercussions for social revolution would be fatal but the Filipinos’ shared sacrifice revitalized national consciousness and created a sense of deserved nationhood. The guerrillas played a key role in enabling MacArthur’s return.

  • 2Nd INFANTRY REGIMENT
    2nd INFANTRY REGIMENT 1110 pages (approximate) Boxes 1243-1244 The 2nd Infantry Regiment was a component part of the 5th Infantry Division. This Division was activated in 1939 but did not enter combat until it landed on Utah Beach, Normandy, three days after D-Day. For the remainder of the war in Europe the Division participated in numerous operations and engagements of the Normandy, Northern France, Rhineland, Ardennes-Alsace and Central Europe campaigns. The records of the 2nd Infantry Regiment consist mostly of after action reports and journals which provide detailed accounts of the operations of the Regiment from July 1944 to May 1945. The records also contain correspondence on the early history of the Regiment prior to World War II and to its training activities in the United States prior to entering combat. Of particular importance is a file on the work of the Regiment while serving on occupation duty in Iceland in 1942.

    CHAPTER 5 A GREEK ORLANDO IN LONDON In April 1941, the Greek Section of the BBC was preparing to start speaking for Greece, “the FREE GREECE”, from London and not Athens since it expected that Athens Radio would soon be silenced by the Germans.1 On 22 April 1941, the Greek Section was entrusted and first broadcast the Athens signature, called “To Tsopanopoulo” (“The Shepherd Boy”), which was returned to the National Broadcasting Organization of Greece on 5 November 1944.2 As George Angeloglou, Head of the Greek Section of the BBC from 1939 until 1957, writes, “at the start of the war very few people in Britain knew very much about Greece or had ever been there”: “In fact in London and Cardiff Greek grocers had to put up huge posters in their windows saying, ‘This is a GREEK shop – not ITALIAN’ to avoid having their windows broken by angry anti-Italian demonstrators.”3 “Axis Blackmail of Greece” (The Times, 17 October 1940) and “War of Nerves on Greece” (The Times, 28 October 1940) were amongst newspaper titles preceding the Italian attack. On 29 October 1940, a Times article entitled “Italy Strikes Greece” reported that “fighting had begun on the Albanian frontier and that Greek troops were resisting stubbornly”; the Greeks were “united in their determination to resist foreign aggression” and the subheadings read “Greece as a United Nation” and “Greeks Holding the Frontier”.4 “In their long history, which had been a constant fight for liberty”, another article in The Times read, “the Greeks had known many enemies, but 1 George Angeloglou, This Is London, Good Evening – Edo Londino, Kalispera Sas: The Story of the Greek Section of the B.B.C., 1939-1957, Athens: Efstathiadis Group, 111.

  • Fifth Air Force Light and Medium Bombers As the Main Striking Force Was Conducted in the Port Moresby Harbor
    Disclaimer The views in this paper are entirely those of the author expressed under Air University principles of academic freedom and do not reflect official views of the School of Advanced Airpower Studies, Air University, the U.S. Air Force, or the Department of Defense. In accordance with Air Force Regulation 110-8, it is not copyrighted, but is the property of the United States Government ABSTRACT When Generals George C. Kenney and Ennis C. Whitehead became the two senior commanders of the US Fifth Air Force in July 1942 their work was cut out for them. The previous January, the Japanese secured the port of Rabaul in eastern New Britain. They immediately began the drive down the east coast of New Guinea with the objective of driving the Allies from Port Moresby. For the next year and a half, in some the harshest climate of World War II, the Fifth Air Force helped to reverse the tide and drive the Japanese from eastern New Guinea. This was accomplished despite the Europe-first policy and an inappropriate doctrine based on high altitude, daylight, precision bombing. Kenney and Whitehead's first task was to modify existing aircraft and develop a suitable doctrine to interdict Japanese shipping between New Britain and New Guinea. In order to suppress ship-borne antiaircraft artillery, forward-firing machine guns were mounted in the nose of Douglas A-20 light bombers and North American B-25 medium bombers. Low altitude skip- bombing tactics were borrowed from the British and perfected by constant practice and refinement. By February 1943, Allied intelligence, greatly aided by ULTRA intercepts, predicted the movement of a Japanese convoy destined for New Guinea.

  • SUBMERGING the Prelude: Berlin, 1938–1941
    Chapter 1 SUBMERGING Y•Z The Prelude: Berlin, 1938–1941 On 10 June 1938, Joseph Goebbels, the Nazi minister for propaganda, addressed over three hundred Berlin police offi cers: “The rallying cry is not law, but rather harassment. The Jews must get out of Berlin. The police will help me with that.”1 The fi rst fi ve years of Nazi rule witnessed the gradual, yet steady, tightening of restrictions against Germany’s Jew- ish population and its increasing exclusion from the country’s political, cultural, social, and economic life.2 Berlin was not immune to these de- velopments. However, 1938 witnessed the start of ever more violent and radical policies designed to force the Jews from German soil. Although ap- proximately 30 percent of Berlin Jews had emigrated by the end of 1937, over 110,000 still remained in the city.3 Moreover, despite the continual attacks on Jewish commercial activity that had been occurring since the early 1930s, Berlin’s Jewish businesses (or those designated by the Nazis as Jewish businesses) had managed to persevere to a surprising degree.
