He was so close at times he could see their faces and could only think that was some mother’s son. Their ship rescued many American men out of those waters as ships around them were sunk. Lee remembers being off Iwo Jima when it was announced that Ernie Pyle, the WW II correspondent, had been killed on the island. His ship was the first to receive the news. Pyle was from nearby Dana, Indiana, near Highway 36, a few miles east of the Illinois border. Few people today know the name Ernie Pyle, but at that time everyone knew of him. The Baltimore was ordered back to San Francisco, California, while on its way to Pearl Harbor the day it was bombed. The crew was greatly disappointed and did not know why they were being called back. But as ramps were being built onto the ship, it was evident that President Franklin Roosevelt was going to board. He had requested the USS Baltimore since that was where he was from. The ship with the President Lee Francis Burtch aboard arrived in Pearl Harbor July 26, 1944.

    Total received donations for the Vietnam Era Display are at $3,100, with $1,900 needed to reach a ship’s goal of $5,000. Can you help? (See page 22) LOOKING BACK... 2nd Quarter 2011 "Rest well, yet sleep lightly and hear the call, if again sounded, to provide firepower for freedom…” THE JERSEYMAN 9 Years - Nr. 70 World War II Memorial Washington, D.C. 2 THE JERSEYMAN LOOKING BACK… May 23, 1943 World War II commissioning of the USS New Jersey, May 23, 1943. My mother is the taller of the two uniformed WAVE personnel, dead center on the fantail, and facing the camera. Mom is now 93 years old, and she will be 94 in August. She is very cognizant of the events and details of her assignment, and which happened before she married. She is very proud of her service to her country as a WAVE. Although she would have liked to stay in the navy, she had to leave the service in August 1945, as World War II ended, because even though she had later married she was pregnant with my oldest brother. At that time, WAVES would not permit expectant mothers to remain on active duty, married or not. I think a lot has probably changed in the navy since then. David Jennings Midlothian, Virginia Catherine DeSales Corbett Jennings, was one of two waves that were assigned to USS New Jersey for 1 month before the ship was commissioned. Once the ship was commissioned on 23 May 1943, the WAVES were reassigned back to their original duty station at BUPERS (Bureau of Naval Personnel) in Washington, D.C.

  • Appendix As Too Inclusive
    Color profile: Disabled Composite Default screen Appendix I A Chronological List of Cases Involving the Landing of United States Forces to Protect the Lives and Property of Nationals Abroad Prior to World War II* This Appendix contains a chronological list of pre-World War II cases in which the United States landed troops in foreign countries to pro- tect the lives and property of its nationals.1 Inclusion of a case does not nec- essarily imply that the exercise of forcible self-help was motivated solely, or even primarily, out of concern for US nationals.2 In many instances there is room for disagreement as to what motive predominated, but in all cases in- cluded herein the US forces involved afforded some measure of protection to US nationals or their property. The cases are listed according to the date of the first use of US forces. A case is included only where there was an actual physical landing to protect nationals who were the subject of, or were threatened by, immediate or po- tential danger. Thus, for example, cases involving the landing of troops to punish past transgressions, or for the ostensible purpose of protecting na- tionals at some remote time in the future, have been omitted. While an ef- fort to isolate individual fact situations has been made, there are a good number of situations involving multiple landings closely related in time or context which, for the sake of convenience, have been treated herein as sin- gle episodes. The list of cases is based primarily upon the sources cited following this paragraph.

  • At the Time of the United States' Entry Into the World Conflict in April 1917
    At the time of the United States’ entry into the world conflict in April 1917, the war in Europe had been going on for some 32 months and no end was in sight. The long, hitter battle on the Western Front had just about come to a standstill. The Russian Front was falling apart due to the Bolsheviks, and the internal revolution going on inside Russia was quickly exploited by the Germans. They hoped to negotiate a separate peace with the Rus- sians, thereby freeing troops for the Western Front. At this same time, on the Italian Front, the Italians were holding their own but with no chance of a decisive victory. On the seas, the life- line of supply and communication for the Allies was being threat- ened. The German submarines were taking their toll; 800,000 tons of shipping were being lost each month, and if the submarines were not contained soon, they might very well lead to a victory for the Central Powers. In order to curtail this excessive loss of shipping and to speed up an Allied victory, every conceivable idea was run through the mill. We would need to protect out troop ships, lines of supply, and communications. We started sailing ships in convoys protected by destroyers that were armed with depth charges, installed deck guns on merchant ships, and employed blimps and planes for anti- submarine duty. But perhaps the most ambitious plan was to de- vise a way to contain the enemy submarines at their bases, or at least to limit their access to the shipping lanes of the Allies.

  • The Heroic Image of a Pennsylvania Sailor
    The Heroic Image of a Pennsylvania Sailor ANY United States sailors have died in service to their country, and most are remembered or mourned by family M and friends, but time erodes the individual identities of countless men whose collective contribution is unmistakable and whose individual legacy is minimal. Only a few great leaders or controversial figures leave a more permanent or unforgettable im- print, thanks to biographers, historians, journalists and maritime aficionados. This natural or at least predictable course has an interesting exception in the Baltimore affair of 1891-1892. Here the diplomacy of the imbroglio, which almost led to war with Chile, and the personalities and ploys of President Benjamin Harrison, Secretary of State James G. Blaine, Secretary of the Navy Benjamin F. Tracy, American Minister Patrick Egan and Captain Winfield Scott Schley have obscured the equally fascinating public reaction to the unfortunate and unproductive death of a Pennsylvania Boatswain's Mate. Patriotic defender of flag and country or insti- gator of a drunken brawl, Philadelphia-born Charles W. Riggin was, for a short time, so celebrated and honored that his death outside a bar in Valparaiso, Chile, was elevated to heroic proportions. He served on the U.S.S. Baltimore^ a cruiser of English design built at Philadelphia by William Cramp and Sons' shipbuilding works, at that time one of the largest in the nation. The ship was commissioned on January 7, 1890 (contracted in August 1885). Heavily armed and with a crew of 301, she displaced 4,600 tons. Her engines had 10,065 horsepower capacity, and could maintain a speed of 19.5 knots.
