Luce and signed by the Secretary of the Navy, William E. Chandler, establishing the Naval War College and making Commodore Luce its first president. GENERAL ORDER, NO. 325. October 6, 1884. A college is hereby established for an advanced course of professional study for naval officers, to be known as the Naval War College. It will be under the general supervision of the Bureau of Navigation. The principal building on Coasters’ Har- bor Island, Newport, R.I., will be assigned to its use, and is hereby transferred, with the surrounding structures and the grounds immediately adjacent, to the custody and control of the Bureau of Navigation for that purpose. The college will be under the immediate charge of an officer of the Navy, not below the grade of commander, to be known as the President of the Naval War College. He will be assisted in the performance of his duties by a faculty. A course of instruction, embracing the higher branches of professional study, will be arranged by a board, consisting of all the members of the faculty and including the president, who will be the presiding officer of the board. The board will have regular meetings at least once a month, and at such other times as the president may direct, for the transaction of business. The proceedings of the board will be recorded in a journal. The course of instruction will be open to all officers above the grade of naval cadet. Commodore S. B. Luce has been assigned to duty as the president of the college. WM. E. CHANDLER, Secretary of the Navy. This year the institution marked its 120th anni- versary with ceremonies on 6 October (including an “appearance” by the Commodore) and a commemorative coin—as well as with a highly successful visit in September by the Commission on Institutions of Higher Education of the New England Association of Schools and Colleges. That visit completed the on-site evaluation phase of a process (the ten-year comprehensive evalua- tion required for all NEASC-accredited colleges) that, we are confident, will ultimately continue the College’s accreditation, originally granted in 1994, to confer the master of arts degree in na- tional security and strategic studies. “The principal building on Coasters’ [sic] Harbor Island” was the poorhouse and asylum for the deaf and dumb of Newport, Rhode Island. Built in 1819 and renamed Founders Hall in 1976, it now houses the Naval War College Museum, the Maritime History Department, and the Naval War College Press.

  • Wishful Thinking Or Buying Time? the Logic of British Appeasement in the 1930S
    Wishful Thinking or Buying Time? Wishful Thinking or Norrin M. Ripsman and Buying Time? Jack S. Levy The Logic of British Appeasement in the 1930s The “lessons of the 1930s,” based on British and French appeasement of Germany, have pro- foundly inºuenced U.S. security policy for a half century. Presidents have invoked these lessons in decisions for war in Korea, Vietnam, and Iraq in 1990–91 and 2003, and in presidential campaigns.1 Among policymakers and publics, and among many scholars as well, the futility of appeasement has ac- quired the status of a lawlike generalization.2 The implicit assumption is that the Western allies’ primary aim was to secure a lasting peace with Germany through concessions to resolve Adolf Hitler’s grievances. If that was the aim, the policy clearly failed. But, as we shall demonstrate, that was not appease- ment’s primary aim. Scholars need to rethink both the concept of appeasement and the goals of appeasement in the 1930s. The popular image of appeasement was fueled by the scholarship of tra- ditional historians, who condemned British and French appeasement of Germany as politically naïve and morally bankrupt. In their view, the policies Norrin M. Ripsman is Associate Professor in the Department of Political Science at Concordia University. He is the author of Peacemaking by Democracies: The Effect of State Autonomy on the Post–World War Settlements (University Park: Penn State University Press, 2002). Jack S. Levy is Board of Gover- nors’ Professor of Political Science at Rutgers University, Senior Associate at the Arnold A. Saltzman Insti- tute of War and Peace Studies at Columbia University, and past president of both the International Studies Association (2007–08) and the Peace Science Society (2005–06).

  • 2017 Progress Report
    Department of Defense Response to Executive Order 13287, “Preserve America,” Section 3: Reporting Progress on the Identification, Protection, and Use of Federal Historic Properties Includes Information on the Departments of the Army, Navy, and Air Force fiscal years 2014-2016 October 2017 Defense Section 3 Report 2 Introduction This report satisfies the requirements of Section 3(c) of Executive Order (EO) 13287, “Preserve America,”1 for the Department of Defense (DoD). The Preserve America EO directs each Federal agency with real property management responsibilities to submit reports on its “progress in identifying, protecting, and using historic properties in its ownership.” The Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) developed questions to assist Federal agencies in meeting the reporting requirements of the Preserve America EO. DoD’s consolidated answers to those questions posed by the ACHP includes information on the Departments of the Army, Navy, and Air Force for fiscal years (FYs) 2014-2016.2 This report references policy and guidance documents from the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) and the Military Departments. These documents provide the framework necessary to balance and integrate proactive management of cultural resources with all aspects of the military mission. This report also provides summary data on the DoD Cultural Resources Program. The DoD is a large and complex Federal agency with the critical mission to provide the military forces needed to deter war and to protect the security of the United States.3 The DoD’s installations and facilities are critical pieces of this national defense mission. The DoD manages the largest portfolio of real property assets (structures and buildings), which includes historic properties, in the Federal government.
