  • The Position of Secretary of Defense: Statutory Restrictions and Civilian-Military Relations
    The Position of Secretary of Defense: Statutory Restrictions and Civilian-Military Relations Updated January 6, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R44725 Position of Secretary of Defense: Statutory Restrictions and Civilian-Military Relations Summary The position of Secretary of Defense is unique within the United States government; it is one of two civilian positions within the military chain of command, although unlike the President, the Secretary of Defense is not elected. Section 113 of the United States Code states that the Secretary of Defense is to be “appointed from civilian life by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate.” The section goes on to elaborate a key mechanism by which civilian control of the armed forces is maintained: A person may not be appointed as Secretary of Defense within seven years after relief from active duty as a commissioned officer of a regular component of an armed force. The proposed nomination of General (Ret.) Lloyd Austin, United States Army, who retired from the military in 2016, to be Secretary of Defense may lead both houses of Congress to consider whether and how to suspend, change, or remove that provision. This provision was originally contained in the 1947 National Security Act (P.L. 80-253), which mandated that 10 years pass between the time an officer is relieved from active duty and when he or she could be appointed to the office of the Secretary of Defense. In 2007, Section 903 of the FY2008 National Defense Authorization Act (P.L. 110-181), Congress changed the period of time that must elapse between relief from active duty and appointment to the position of Secretary of Defense to seven years.

  • Richard Russell, the Senate Armed Services Committee & Oversight of America’S Defense, 1955-1968
    BALANCING CONSENSUS, CONSENT, AND COMPETENCE: RICHARD RUSSELL, THE SENATE ARMED SERVICES COMMITTEE & OVERSIGHT OF AMERICA’S DEFENSE, 1955-1968 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Joshua E. Klimas, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor David Stebenne, Advisor Professor John Guilmartin Advisor Professor James Bartholomew History Graduate Program ABSTRACT This study examines Congress’s role in defense policy-making between 1955 and 1968, with particular focus on the Senate Armed Services Committee (SASC), its most prominent and influential members, and the evolving defense authorization process. The consensus view holds that, between World War II and the drawdown of the Vietnam War, the defense oversight committees showed acute deference to Defense Department legislative and budget requests. At the same time, they enforced closed oversight procedures that effectively blocked less “pro-defense” members from influencing the policy-making process. Although true at an aggregate level, this understanding is incomplete. It ignores the significant evolution to Armed Services Committee oversight practices that began in the latter half of 1950s, and it fails to adequately explore the motivations of the few members who decisively shaped the process. SASC chairman Richard Russell (D-GA) dominated Senate deliberations on defense policy. Relying only on input from a few key colleagues – particularly his protégé and eventual successor, John Stennis (D-MS) – Russell for the better part of two decades decided almost in isolation how the Senate would act to oversee the nation’s defense.

  • Easement Down the Road
    10 Cite Fall 1983 ment Down the Road Good News for Preservation^ Joel Warren Barna for county offices. The Pillot Building was allowed to stand also, but the tactics of the preservationists left County Judge Jon Lindsay, the Chamber of Com- - : merce, and several Harris County commissioners 3 thoroughly angered. "We tried working with [preservationists], but they didn't deliver on the money or the help they promised to fix up the Pillot Building," Lindsay charged in an ff interview in 1982. "I can't wail until it falls down." Even though the county commissioners were explor- - ing suggestions for renovating the Pillot Building for 8 badly needed county law library, Harris County did not (according to preservationists) maintain the build- ng properly. Lindsay got his wish earlier this year, when, after what one critic calls "10 years of accumu- lated county neglect," one of the Pillot Building's walls began to collapse. "At this point, for whatever reason, the county de- cided to dispose of the problem once and for all. and After almost 20 years of frustrating rear-guard battles set about to demolish the building." says Shannon against ever stronger development pressures, Hous- Vale, a lawyer with a major downtown law firm, who ton's harried historic preservationists find themselves worked with the Volunteer Lawyers and Accountants in an unaccustomed position: They have recently won for the Arts, the Greater Houston Preservation Alli- two major victories. In the afterglow, preservationists ance, and other groups to save the Pillot Building yet are uniting to plan strategy for what may be their again.

  • Dear Maire Families, We Welcomed
    MAIRE ELEMENTARY ● Sonja Franchett, Principal Each and Every Child, Each and Every Day March 25, 2015 Dear Maire Families, We welcomed Spring this year with our amazing Maire Fair. This whole-school carnival event represented almost 100% participation of our Maire students and families. The funds raised, along with our upcoming Parent Auction on May 2nd, will be spread out over the next three years to purchase building improvements, classroom and technology supplies, assembly and curriculum enrichment opportunities, and outside/garden/playground upgrades. Our entire Maire Staff thanks the parents and PTO folks who put forth tremendous effort in making our fundraising efforts both fun and successful. Along with our Carnival success, students and teachers at Maire have been engaged and learning in a wide variety of projects and enrichment experiences this past month. Fifth graders have been researching countries throughout the world to prepare for their EXPO projects and to create presentations about the Spanish speaking world. Fourth graders visited the capitol at Lansing, and learned about people’s differences in a day-long “Disability Awareness” workshop. They also created their own businesses and marketed and tested their own vehicles in a STEM engineering project facilitated by Ms. Moir and some of our automotive engineering parents. Second graders have been studying about local businesses, and will begin research of famous people for the Living Museum. Third grade students have been honing their Michigan history skills, and will begin research about famous Michigan products for a Made in Michigan project. First graders and kindergarteners are continuing to grow their writing and reading skills during Readers and Writers Workshop every day! During lunchtime enrichment students are choosing to write their own creative plays, work with ceramics, grow their knitting skills, sing in lunch choir, and learn about geography and cultures of the world in the Passport Club.

  • Theatrical Entertainment, Social Halls, Industry and Community: Houghton County, Michigan, 1837-1916
    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.
