Naval Energy Forum Washington, DC, October 14, 2011 “Our Past Is
Naval Energy Forum Washington, DC, October 14, 2011 “Our Past Is Prologue” A lecture by James D. Hornfischer, author of Neptune’s Inferno: The U.S. Navy at Guadalcanal (Bantam Books, 2011) In the age of sail, before the days of mineral- burning warships, our ships of the line moved with the wind, unconstrained by the scarcity of consumables beyond those required by their crews to subsist. A hundred years later, in the nuclear age, our naval leaders enjoyed similar freedom from time to time, driving ships powered by the near-limitless capacity of nuclear propulsion. In between, however, was another era entirely. World War II, as increasingly again now, was a time when all naval commanders had to reckon with the 1 restrictions imposed by the scarcity of fuel, both in supply and in transport. The operating radius of their ships, and their time on station, were thus constrained. “If an enemy lay beyond that radius, the fleet might as well be chained to a post,” a maritime historian has written. During the Guadalcanal campaign, from August to November 1942, scarcity of fuel was a factor in every type of operation. In the skies, our fighter pilots fought air-to-air, above and around their own base, giving them a tactical advantage over the Japanese, who were fighting at the outer limit of their range. On the ground, our Marines needed fuel for their vehicles, and, occasionally, chemical recreation. They discovered that torpedo fuel, transported and stored in convenient five-gallon cans, could be mixed with papayas, limes and fruit juice. -

Civil War Blockade Run Mail, 1861-65
Civil War Blockade Run Mail, 186165 Background: President Lincoln proclaimed the blockade of the southern coasts on April 19, 1861. Stretching from Virginia to Texas, the blockaded area encompassed over 3,500 miles of coastline and nearly 200 harbors and river openings, so the USA concentrated on the thirteen CSA deep‐water ports that could serve as effective transit points for supplies and mail. By early 1862, six of these ports had been captured by the USA before they could commence blockade running. By mid‐1862, New Orleans was also captured and Savannah was effectively closed. The remaining five ports were active in blockade running until they were captured late in the war, although Federal naval actions temporarily stopped blockade running at Charleston and Galveston. The blockade ended with the fall of Galveston on June 2, 1865. Geography: The map below shows the seven CSA ports active in blockade running for all or a part of the war. Also shown are the eleven routes to the five foreign ports (Halifax, Bermuda, Nassau, Havana and Matamoros) that acted as the staging points for supplies and mail. The Mails: Fewer than 400 of the letters carried by blockade runners are known today. Other than at New Orleans and Mobile, the blockade mail service was slow to develop since less hazardous through‐the‐lines mail routes were available until early 1862. Nearly all of the surviving letters were carried in the May 1862 to March 1865 period. An incoming letter to the CSA was typically sent inside of another envelope to one of the foreign staging ports for transfer to a blockade runner, and then posted in the CSA arrival port, where inland postage and a two cents ship fee were assessed.
