The Historic Site is planning to lease approximately 10 houses AT LINCOLN HOME for low-key business, commercial, George L. Painter or professional use. This can be done under the provisions of the 1980 amendments to the National Historic Preservation Act. As part of the program, the lessee must preserve, restore, and maintain the exterior of the structure during the term of the lease. In turn, the lessee will be permitted to adap- tively restore the interior, subject to the restriction that major architec­ tural features must be preserved. In early 1985, the Site launched the program by announcing that the Corneau and Stuve Houses would be made available for leas­ ing. From 1855 to 1860, the Cor­ neau House was the residence of Lincoln's friend, pharmacist Charles Corneau. Historic records show that the Lincoln family purchased such items as "Cough Candy," "Caster Oil," and "Hair Balsam" at the Corneau and Diller drugstore. The Stuve House, on the other hand, was constructed more than ten years after Lincoln's One-half million people visit the Lincoln Home in Springfield, IL each year departure from Springfield.

  • A Visual Guide to the Gato Class
    A VISUAL GUIDE TO THE U.S. FLEET SUBMARINES PART ONE: GATO CLASS (WITH A TAMBOR/GAR CLASS POSTSCRIPT) 1941-1945 BY DAVID L. JOHNSTON 2010 (revised June, 2010) A cursory review of photographs of the U.S. fleet submarines of World War II often leaves the reader with the impression that the boats were nearly identical in appearance. Indeed, the fleet boats from the Porpoise class all the way to the late war Tench class were all similar enough in appearance that it is easy to see how this impression is justified. However, a more detailed examination of the boats will reveal a bewildering array of differences, some of them quite distinct, that allow the separation of the boats into their respective classes. Ironically, the rapidly changing configuration of the boats’ appearances often makes it difficult to get down to a specific boat identification. However being familiar with all of the wartime changes will allow you to narrow down the date of the photo and when combined with other data will sometimes get you the specific name. The Gato class started construction on 11 September 1940 with the Drum at Portsmouth and ended on 01 March 1944 with the commissioning of the Hammerhead at Manitowoc. With a construction period spanning a time of tremendous change within the force, these boats were subjected to several distinct modifications to their outward appearance, with these configurations being distinct enough to allow their visual separation from the earlier Porpoise/Perch, Salmon/Sargo, and Tambor/Gar boats, and the later Balao and Tench classes.

Scenes of confetti streamers being thrown over the rail by Board of Trustees smiling passengers aboard ship, while those on shore wave goodbye, may no longer be RADM Gerald Clusen (USN, Ret.), common; but the heart-felt sentiment of wishing those sailing away a good journey – President a bon voyage – remains true today. Phillip Maples, Vice President So now we bid a “bon voyage” to a respected colleague about to leave our museum for new shores and new adventures! Alex Allie, Vice President Jamie Zastrow, Secretary Caitlin Clyne, the museum’s dedicated collections manager for 7 years is about to embark on a new voyage in her professional career with her fiancée Adam (a museum John Brunner man in his own right). But she leaves behind a group of coworkers, volunteers, museum Dr. Robert Cornwell trustees, Great Lakes historians and many others who benefited and enjoyed the work Steve Lankton we got to do together with her. And the museum certainly benefited from Caitlin’s time here. Phillip Maples Caitlin often worked late hours behind-the-scenes, in the wonderful collections and Scott McMeans archives of the museum, or sometimes on a special project with a group of trusted Jason Ring volunteers. There was a special bond between Caitlin and many of her dedicated crew, Carlton Schultz which makes me confident that stories about her exploits will be told for years to come!

    April 5, 2019 EA-18-172 Ms. Peggy Maniates, Executive Director USS Silversides Submarine Museum 1346 Bluff Street Muskegon, MI 49441 SUBJECT: USS SILVERSIDES SUBMARINE MUSEUM — RESULTS OF THE U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION’S INITIAL SITE VISIT AND REQUEST FOR CONFIRMATION OF VOLUNTARY CONTROLS; EXERCISE OF ENFORCEMENT DISCRETION Dear Ms. Maniates: I am writing to provide the results of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff’s initial site visit to the property at 1346 Bluff Street, Muskegon, Michigan, performed on October 23, 2018. The results are summarized below and are discussed in further detail in the enclosed report. During the initial site visit, the staff conducted radiation surveys over approximately 70 percent of the areas inside the USS Silversides Submarine. The staff did not survey the museum buildings outside the submarine. As was discussed with you during our initial site visit, the staff identified a number of instruments and other components (luminous items or products) installed in the submarine that contained radium-226. In accordance with our regulations in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Section 31.12(a)(3), General license for certain items and self-luminous products containing radium-226, the Museum is considered a General Licensee for the possession of these items installed in the submarine, a marine vehicle. Under this regulation, there is no limit on the quantity of luminous items installed in a marine vehicle that may be possessed. Also during our initial site visit, the staff identified one box of damaged gauges and one uninstalled gauge, not in the box, containing radium-226 in a locked storage room in the submarine.
