The antisubmarine defenses mounted by the United States were insufficient in the first months of 1942. This thesis examines how the United States Navy, in cooperation with the Army and the Coast Guard, began antisubmarine operations to protect the Chesapeake Bay and the surrounding area from the menace of Germany's U-boats during the first year of America's participation in World War II.

  • Jacob Jones the First US Destroyer Sunk by Enemy Action
    FORGOTTEN WRECKS OF THE FIRST WORLD WAR USS Jacob Jones The first US destroyer sunk by enemy action WWW.FORGOTTENWRECKS.ORG About the Project Forgotten Wrecks of the First World War is a Heritage Lottery funded (HLF) four year project devised and delivered by the Maritime Archaeology Trust to coincide with the centenary of the Great War. At the heart of the project is a desire to raise the profile of a currently under-represented aspect of the First World War. While attention is often focused on the Western Front and major naval battles like Jutland, historic remains from the war lie, largely forgotten, in and around our seas, rivers and estuaries. With more than 1,100 wartime wrecks along England’s south coast alone, the conflict has left a rich heritage legacy and many associated stories of bravery and sacrifice. These underwater memorials represent the vestiges of a vital, yet little known, struggle that took place on a daily basis, just off our shores. Through a programme of fieldwork, research, exhibitions and outreach, the project aims to engage communities and volunteers and provide a lasting legacy of information and learning resources relating to First World War wrecks for future generations. 2 The wrecks of the John Mitchell (below) and the Gallia (right), both sunk during the war. This booklet details the USS Jacob Jones, its involvement the First World War and includes an account of its loss off the Isles of Scilly on the 6th December 1917. MAT would like to thank project volunteer Andrew Daw for his work on this publication.

  • Abstract the Evolutionary Development of Floating Dry Docks
    Abstract The Evolutionary Development of Floating Dry Docks By Tyler Morra November, 2011 Director: Dr. Nathan Richards DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY, PROGRAM IN MARITIME STUDIES The floating dry dock represents one of the most technologically advanced structures ever designed to operate in a maritime environment. These indispensable repair facilities provided necessary maintenance to commercial and naval fleets operating in waters where traditional graving dry docks were impractical or impossible to erect. As technological development allowed for construction of larger sailing and steam vessels, a corresponding progression ensued within the floating dry docks contracted to service and maintain all vessels, up to the largest ships of the day. By analyzing various models of technological evolution as they apply to developments within floating dry docks, the author asks whether their historical advancements qualify as evolutionary, or if individual docks developed solely in response to specific environmental constraints.

It began under the pressure of the German submarine campaign, endured through to victory, and rapidly collapsed. Even in 1917-1918, that relationship was dominated by rivalry. The natural product was the so-called ‘naval battle of Paris’ in 1919. In fact, this thesis demonstrates that between 1917-1919, the maritime relationship between these states always was characterised by co-operation and compromise, tempered by rivalry.

Cultural Resources Management Having worked closely with Tom Crouch, one of the Air and Space Information for Museum curators involved in The Last Act, as the National Park Service's Parks, Federal Agencies, subject matter expert for Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Indian Tribes, States, Local Park, I had apprised him of the Service's difficulties in interpreting World Governments and the War II sites associated with the Great Pacific War, and of the successful Private Sector steps taken by the Washington Office to address the situation in regard to the preparation of the USS Arizona Memorial's new film. I was according­ ly included as a member of the Air and Space's panel that convened February 7,1994, to review and comment on the exhibit working draft. I was one of two World War II veterans on the panel and the only one who, as a Marine, had seen combat against the Japanese.
