To all Members: Wow! How time flies as we find ourselves coming upon another election season with a new fiscal year just around the corner. Looking back over the past year, we would again like to thank those members and friends who volunteered their time and gave donations in support of the Detachment. It’s folks like this, that make us what we are and enable us to continue our primary mission of providing service and assistance to our fellow Marines, Veterans, and the local community. Also, we want express a mountain of gratitude to the American Legion Sterling McClellan Post 142, where over the years they have provided us with an excellent ‘home base’ to operate out of and have always treated us as one of their own. Oorah! Looking ahead, our friend Diane Schmidt over at ‘Casey’s Bar and Grill’, in Lauderdale by the Sea, is looking to hold another party at the end of this month for the Marines and Sailors coming in off the ships during Fort Lauderdale’s Fleet Week. Stay tuned for more details at the up coming members meeting and email announcements.

    AGREEMENT WITHOUT IMPLEMENTATION Military Bases and Alliance Tensions in Japan By Kerri J. Ng Department of International Relations Coral Bell School of Asia Pacific Affairs ANU College of Asia and the Pacific A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the Australian National University. Canberra © Copyright by Kerri Jinzhi Ng 2020 Unless otherwise indicated, this is my own original work. _________________ Kerri Jinzhi Ng October 2020 ii Acknowledgements First and foremost, I must thank Dr. David Envall, my chief supervisor, for his time, patience and encouragement over the course of this undertaking. Over many long discussions, he has helped me articulate the ideas that I had and organize them in a logical way. I am also grateful for the opportunities he provided for me to share my research in class, which were also valuable exercises in summarizing and communicating my arguments. And if I one day find myself with more than one style guide in my office, I know exactly who to blame. Similarly, I owe a debt of gratitude to the other supervisors on my panel. Professor William Tow was instrumental in getting me to Waseda University as a visiting scholar in 2014, thus enabling me to conduct a large part of my fieldwork in Japan. But he was also a mentor whose door was always open when I needed advice and encouragement. I also thank Dr. Ian Hall for his suggestions in terms of background scholarship and how I should organize it, and to Dr. Amy Catalinac for her insights into the Japanese political system.

Q: This is being done on behalf of the Association for Diplomatic Studies, and I am Charles Stuart Kennedy. And you go by Al. O'NEILL: Yes. Q: Let's start. When and where were you born? O'NEILL: I was born on October 21, 1945 in Charleston, South Carolina; hence, the middle name. Interview with Mr. Aloysius M. O'Neill http://www.loc.gov/item/mfdipbib001617 Library of Congress Q: There's Fort Moultrie. Moultrie was a Revolutionary War hero.... Was he the one who flew the Palmetto flag? O'NEILL: That battle is the origin of the palmetto in the South Carolina state flag. In 1776 the British tried to invade Charleston which was the main port in the south of the colonies at that time. What was then called Fort Sullivan at the entrance to Charleston Harbor was the main obstacle to the British landing. It was, I think, the first victory by the colonists against the British in the war, June 28, 1776. The commander of Fort Sullivan was Colonel William Moultrie. The fort was built of palmetto logs which absorbed the British cannonballs and its guns drove off the British landing force and fleet.

    Reconnaissance Company, Headquarters Battalion (Reinf), 1st Marine Division (Reinf) Fleet Marine Force Pacific 1st Reconnaissance Battalion, 1st Marine Division, Fleet Marine Force Pacific MORE THAN A HALF CENTURY COLLECTION OF HISTORY, TRIVIA, SEA STORIES, HALF-TRUTHS, SCUTTLEBUT AND WHITE LIES Issue #40 All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.—Thomas Jefferson 1 July 2014 The United States Marine Corps had well established reconnaissance units before Marine Raiders existed, before Amphibious Reconnaissance Units existed, before the Atomic Bomb or Fleet Marine Force Recon Companies existed and before Marine Corps Test Unit #1 came into existence. Editors Note: Last year Bill Hay sent an article posted by one of the current “Special Ops” websites which stated boldly that Marine Reconnaissance is a direct result of the atomic bomb and then (paradoxically) that Marine Reconnaissance began with the Raiders and an Amphibious Recon Company of WW II. The article avows that Marine Reconnaissance owes much to the long ago short-lived and now defunct Marine Corps Test Unit #1. As a student of Marine Reconnaissance history for more than 59 years I consider the premise(s) of the article to be both inaccurate and purposely misleading. We will attempt here to offer an objective historical answer to each one of the claims stated in the article (as stated above). We readily acknowledge the accomplishment and sacrifice of the many brave members of Fleet Marine Force Reconnaissance Companies in Vietnam where they served as integral companies in the Division Reconnaissance Battalions. We also acknowledge that the modern Marine “Force” reconnaissance units did have a direct action mandate on many of their missions.......by definition, though, true military reconnaissance does not include and actually discourages any direct contact with the enemy.
