  • Navy and Coast Guard Ships Associated with Service in Vietnam and Exposure to Herbicide Agents
    Navy and Coast Guard Ships Associated with Service in Vietnam and Exposure to Herbicide Agents Background This ships list is intended to provide VA regional offices with a resource for determining whether a particular US Navy or Coast Guard Veteran of the Vietnam era is eligible for the presumption of Agent Orange herbicide exposure based on operations of the Veteran’s ship. According to 38 CFR § 3.307(a)(6)(iii), eligibility for the presumption of Agent Orange exposure requires that a Veteran’s military service involved “duty or visitation in the Republic of Vietnam” between January 9, 1962 and May 7, 1975. This includes service within the country of Vietnam itself or aboard a ship that operated on the inland waterways of Vietnam. However, this does not include service aboard a large ocean- going ship that operated only on the offshore waters of Vietnam, unless evidence shows that a Veteran went ashore. Inland waterways include rivers, canals, estuaries, and deltas. They do not include open deep-water bays and harbors such as those at Da Nang Harbor, Qui Nhon Bay Harbor, Nha Trang Harbor, Cam Ranh Bay Harbor, Vung Tau Harbor, or Ganh Rai Bay. These are considered to be part of the offshore waters of Vietnam because of their deep-water anchorage capabilities and open access to the South China Sea. In order to promote consistent application of the term “inland waterways”, VA has determined that Ganh Rai Bay and Qui Nhon Bay Harbor are no longer considered to be inland waterways, but rather are considered open water bays.

  • The Exponent's Coverage of Purdue University's 1969 Fee Hike
    Smith 1 The Point of No Return: The Exponent’s Coverage of Purdue University’s 1969 Fee Hike Ian Smith Purdue University Sixth Semester Undergraduate History Student [email protected] (219) 307-5604 Smith 2 For universities across the United States, the 1960s were among the most tumultuous times in memory. This infamous decade was characterized by scenes of protest, disobedience, rebellious artistic expression, cross-class solidarity, and a generation of disillusioned young people pushing for independence. Of course, the rebellious character of the 1960s was not limited to the universities; this was also the era of the Civil Rights movement, the Black Panthers, the New Left, the anti-Vietnam War movement, in addition to a number of other revolutionary organizations and movements. In spite of this, more than any other era of unrest, many of the movements of the 1960s developed within universities. This was particularly due to the massive influx of students from the Baby Boomer generation, which stretched the limits of college admissions and made for rather crowded campuses. In fact, by 1960, college enrollment had increased to 3.63 million students, a 45% increase from the post-WWII period; furthermore, between 1960 and 1970, college enrollment skyrocketed to over 8 million students, more than doubling within a single decade.1 This massive confluence of young people within confined areas naturally led to the discussion of shared grievances, leading young people to fight for their beliefs in an unprecedented manner. At Purdue University, however, the 1960s were largely a period of quiet discontent. When compared to other large universities, such as UC Berkeley or Columbia, Purdue’s sustained calm throughout much of the 1960s was certainly an anomaly.

Gerson With contributions from: Dmitry Gorenburg • Heidi Holz • Peter Mackenzie • Greg Zalasky CRM D0022974.A2/Final November 2010 Strategic Studies is a division of CNA. This directorate conducts analyses of security policy, regional analyses, studies of political-military issues, and strategy and force assessments. CNA Strategic Studies is part of the global community of strategic studies institutes and in fact collaborates with many of them. On the ground experience is a hallmark of our regional work. Our specialists combine in-country experience, language skills, and the use of local primary-source data to produce empirically based work. All of our analysts have advanced degrees, and virtually all have lived and worked abroad. Similarly, our strategists and military/naval operations experts have either active duty experience or have served as field analysts with operating Navy and Marine Corps commands. They are skilled at anticipating the “problem after next” as well as determining measures of effectiveness to assess ongoing initiatives. A particular strength is bringing empirical methods to the evaluation of peace-time engagement and shaping activities. The Strategic Studies Division’s charter is global. In particular, our analysts have proven expertise in the following areas: • The full range of Asian security issues • The full range of Middle East related security issues, especially Iran and the Arabian Gulf • Maritime strategy • Insurgency and stabilization • Future national security environment and forces • European security issues, especially the Mediterranean littoral • West Africa, especially the Gulf of Guinea • Latin America • The world’s most important navies • Deterrence, arms control, missile defense and WMD proliferation The Strategic Studies Division is led by Rear Admiral Michael McDevitt, USN (Ret.), who is available at 703- 824-2614 or [email protected].
