  • Microfilm Publication M617, Returns from U.S
    Publication Number: M-617 Publication Title: Returns from U.S. Military Posts, 1800-1916 Date Published: 1968 RETURNS FROM U.S. MILITARY POSTS, 1800-1916 On the 1550 rolls of this microfilm publication, M617, are reproduced returns from U.S. military posts from the early 1800's to 1916, with a few returns extending through 1917. Most of the returns are part of Record Group 94, Records of the Adjutant General's Office; the remainder is part of Record Group 393, Records of United States Army Continental Commands, 1821-1920, and Record Group 395, Records of United States Army Overseas Operations and Commands, 1898-1942. The commanding officer of every post, as well ad commanders of all other bodies of troops such as department, division, brigade, regiment, or detachment, was required by Army Regulations to submit a return (a type of personnel report) to The Adjutant General at specified intervals, usually monthly, on forms provided by that office. Several additions and modifications were made in the form over the years, but basically it was designed to show the units that were stationed at a particular post and their strength, the names and duties of the officers, the number of officers present and absent, a listing of official communications received, and a record of events. In the early 19th century the form used for the post return usually was the same as the one used for regimental or organizational returns. Printed forms were issued by the Adjutant General’s Office, but more commonly used were manuscript forms patterned after the printed forms.

  • Fort Drum - During the Bataan - Corregidor Campaign, 8 December 1941 to 6 May 1942
    SUBJECT: Report on Operations and Material - Fort Drum - During the Bataan - Corregidor Campaign, 8 December 1941 to 6 May 1942. TO: Commanding General Army Ground Forces Washington, DC 1. Orientation. a. Geographical. The entrance to Manila Bay is guarded by 4 islands. (1) Corregidor - (Fort Mills) (2) Caballo - (Fort Hughes) (3) El Fraile - (Fort Drum) (4) Carabao - (Fort Frank) b. Tactical Command. The tactical command at the beginning of World War II was known as the Harbor Defenses of Manila and Subic Bays. This report deals with Manila Bay only. The defenses were divided into two parts, the ?? Command and the Seaward Defenses Command. Under the Seaward Defense Command were groups I, II, III and IV. (There were no groupments). The mission of the Seaward Defense Command was "to deny the enemy the use of Manila Bay and to protect the detachment of our Navy therefrom". 2. Fort Drum - Description and Organization. a. Fort Drum was constructed on the small island of El Fraile in the channel of Manila Bay in 1913, and was termed the "Concrete Battleship". The entire top of the original island was cut away to below the surface of the water. On this foundation, the reinforced concrete fort was constructed. When completed, it was 350 feet long by 144 feet wide and the main top deck extended 40 feet above mean low water. The general outline of the hull, as seen from above, resembled a ship with the pointed bow toward the China Sea. The exterior walls of the fort were approximately 20 feet thick, of reinforced concrete.

  • Surviving American Seacoast Artillery Weapons February 2021
    232 American Seacoast Defenses Surviving American Seacoast Artillery Weapons February 2021 Compiled: Lists in various CDSG publications prepared by C.L. Kimbell (1985), R.D. Zink (1989), T.C. McGovern (1992 and 1996) and Tom Batha (2014-16). General Note: This is an attempt to list surviving weapons (or the same model/type) that were used by the American armed forces, either in the U.S. and overseas, in a coast defense role in the “modern era” (1890 to 1950). Items to be included in this list must retain at least the whole gun/mortar/howitzer. Sur- viving weapons from earlier periods, muzzleloading cannon (rifled and smoothbore), field artillery (except for 155mm), mobile anti-aircraft guns, and British, Canadian, or Mexican coast artillery are excluded from this list, even if used in North America. In a few cases, weapons have been included because they represent weapons similar to those used for coast defense, and are sufficiently interesting to warrant inclusion. Every effort has been made to make this list as accurate as possible, but it will probably contain a number of er- rors and omissions. Corrections and additions can be sent to Tom Batha ([email protected]), Mark Berhow ([email protected]) or Terry McGovern ([email protected]) The list is arranged by caliber (largest to smallest). The first line contains data about the weapon: the quantity at the site, the caliber of weapon (inches or millimeters), the model, serial number, place of manu- facture, and carriage information, if known. The next lines contain information on where the weapon was previously located as coast defense weapon.

  • Concrete Battleship: Unsinkable Guardian of Manila
    Unsinkable Guardian of Manila Bay INTRODUCTION: Anyone familiar with World War II history knows of the heroic but futile defense of Corregidor mounted by American military forces during the first few months of 1942. Much less known is a similar and valiant effort expended by the garrison of a tiny, adjacent installation located at the mouth of Manila Bay, named Fort Drum. That outpost was once just a small outcropping of rock at the entrance of the bay which played an insignificant role in the Spanish- American War. Later transformed into what resembles a 'concrete battleship', this heavily fortified base was the last American position to surrender after Manila, Bataan and Corregidor were overrun by the Japanese. Even today, it remains 'unsinkable', albeit slowly succumbing to the ravages of time after decades of being abandoned as a harbor defense installation. EL FRAILE ISLAND: In the 1800s, when the Philippine Islands were under Spanish control, a few cannon were placed on El Fraile (The Friar) Island and the other islands situated at the mouth of Manila Bay. One such weapon is barely visible on the far right in this rare view of El Fraile. The intent was to deny passage into Manila Bay by an attacking force. This proved to be an inadequate precaution, during the Spanish-American War of 1898. In the pre-dawn hours of May 1, 1898, US Navy vessels under the command of Admiral Dewey easily slipped past these defensive positions. When the American warships were spotted by Spanish gun crews on the islands, their ineffective gunfire was quickly silenced by Admiral Dewey's squadron.

Llora Dissertation Committee: Robert Perkinson, Chairperson Vernadette Gonzalez William Chapman Kathy Ferguson Yuma Totani Keywords: Bataan Death March, Public History, text, film, monuments, commemoration ii Copyright by Miguel B. Llora 2012 iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to thank all my committee members for helping me navigate through the complex yet pleasurable process of undertaking research and writing a dissertation. My PhD experience provided me the context to gain a more profound insight into the world in which I live. In the process of writing this manuscript, I also developed a deeper understanding of myself. I also deeply appreciate the assistance of several colleagues, friends, and family who are too numerous to list. I appreciate their constant support and will forever be in their debt. Thanks and peace. iv ABSTRACT This dissertation is a study of the politics of historical commemoration relating to the Bataan Death March. I began by looking for abandonment but instead I found struggles for visibility. To explain this diverse set of moves, this dissertation deploys a theoretical framework and a range of research methods that enables analysis of disparate subjects such as war memoirs, films, memorials, and commemorative events. Therefore, each chapter in this dissertation looks at a different yet interrelated struggle for visibility. This dissertation is unique because it gives voice to competing publics, it looks at the stakes they have in creating monuments of historical remembrance, and it acknowledges their competing reasons for producing their version of history.
