No restrictions were placed on the material. Linear feet of shelf space occupied: .4 Approximate number of pages: 250 Approximate number of items: 50 SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE Colonel Edmund Ellis was a member of the U.S. Military Academy Class of 1915. This class included Henry Aurand, Omar Bradley, Dwight D. Eisenhower, John Leonard, Henry Sayler, James Van Fleet, and a number of other famous generals. Ellis served as class secretary for many years and compiled periodic news letters which contained information about the members of the class and their families. Copies of the news letters were distributed to surviving classmates and spouses. In 1971 Ellis began donating copies of the newsletter to the Eisenhower Library. This collection contains the newsletters from 1971 to 1982 as well as some earlier printed material on the class and some memorabilia relating to West Point and class reunions. The newsletter was discontinued after 1982 due to the decline in the number of classmates. By 1991 Colonel Ellis and General Van Fleet were the only two surviving members of the class. Ellis, who was born in March 1890, became the oldest living graduate of West Point in October 1990.

  • Nazi War Crimes and Japanese Imperial Government Records Interagency Working Group
    HISTORICAL MATERIALS IN THE DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER LIBRARY OF INTEREST TO THE NAZI WAR CRIMES AND JAPANESE IMPERIAL GOVERNMENT RECORDS INTERAGENCY WORKING GROUP The Dwight D. Eisenhower Library holds a large quantity of documentation relating to World War II and to the Cold War era. Information relating to war crimes committed by Nazi Germany and by the Japanese Government during World War II can be found widely scattered within the Library’s holdings. The Nazi War Crimes and Japanese Imperial Government Records Interagency Working Group is mandated to identify, locate and, as necessary, declassify records pertaining to war crimes committed by Nazi Germany and Japan. In order to assist the Interagency Working Group in carrying out this mission, the Library staff endeavored to identify historical documentation within its holdings relating to this topic. The staff conducted its search as broadly and as thoroughly as staff time, resources, and intellectual control allowed and prepared this guide to assist interested members of the public in conducting research on documents relating generally to Nazi and Japanese war crimes. The search covered post- war references to such crimes, the use of individuals who may have been involved in such crimes for intelligence or other purposes, and the handling of captured enemy assets. Therefore, while much of the documentation described herein was originated during the years when the United States was involved in World War II (1939 to 1945) one marginal document originated prior to this period can be found and numerous post-war items are also covered, especially materials concerning United States handling of captured German and Japanese assets and correspondence relating to clemency for Japanese soldiers convicted and imprisoned for war crimes.

  • Victory Program
    WORLD WAR II’s REAL VICTORY PROGRAM Author: James Lacey Word Count: 8,219 It has long been an article of faith among World War II historians that then Major Albert Wedemeyer, a junior member of the Army’s War Plans Division, foresaw and laid out America’s mobilization and production effort during World War II. The basis of this claim lies in a fourteen page document, The Ultimate Requirements Study: Estimate of Army Ground Forces, which Wedemeyer completed in early September of 1941. The histories of World War II, which mention what became known as the “Victory Program,” generally focus on this as a document of remarkable prescience and the basis of most of America’s wartime strategic and mobilization planning. Ironically, such reviewers developed this opinion without ever reading the document. In fact, Wedemeyer’s “Victory Program” was wrong in nearly every particular.1 Moreover, its effect on mobilization or future war plans appears to have been virtually nil. In fact, one searches in vain for documents, memos, or letters produced during the war that reference Wedemeyer’s program.2 In modern terms, Wedemeyer’s version of the “Victory 1 An early copy of this document can be found in the Wedemeyer Papers, Box 76, Hoover Institute, Stanford University. It has been reprinted: Charles E. Kirkpatrick, An Unknown Future and a Doubtful Present: Writing the Victory Plan of 1941(Washington D.C., 1992). 2 There is not a single copy to be found in any of the records of the Office of Production Management, The War Production Board, or FDR’s War Files, nor is it mentioned in any of the early histories of these organizations or their successors.

MAJ MORRISON: Sir, you were in the class of 1940 in the Army Industrial College. Under what circumstances were you assigned twthe General Staff? LTG AURAND: Because of the contemplated increase in the Regular Army, the class of 1940 at the Army Industrial College graduated a few weeks ahead of time. Nearly all the students had orders before the closing date arrived, but I did not. It seems the Chief of Ordnance was not . kindly disposed to me. Finally, orders came which assigned me as the Assistant Fiscal Officer of the Ordnance Department. I consider this to be a dead end street.

  • The U.S. Armed Services' Examination of Their Role, 1945-1950
    THE U. S. ARMED SERVICES' EXAMINATION OF THEIR ROLE. 1945-1950 CHARLES DUNLAP BENSON A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE COUNOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1970 Copyright by Charles Dunlap Bans* 1970 PREFACE World War II introduced revolutionary technological changes into the field of warfare. In 1945 military men faced an uncertainty about the future of their profession, unparalit'led in the modern age. This study is intended as an effort, to delineate the thinking of U. S, military leaders about postwar service roles. I shall consider the forces that shaped military thinking^ describe how the Armed Services reacted^ and evaluate their performance. Four factors were param.ount in influencing this postwar examination of roles. As these factors provide a framework for chi tti.dy, the reader should keep them clearly in mind. World '.-.ar II' s impact en American military leaders was the firsc. The socond involved ihe technological ad\'ance3 of the v^ar years which threatened to make one, tv/o, or all three services obsolete. World povrer re] aticriciiiprf constituted a third influence on the determination of service roles.. The fourth consideration was the domestic political conte::t within which U. S. defense policy '.v'as made. The. attempt to view the Armed Forces' examination of their role is made easier by the fact that, following World War II, each service began to emphasize the importance of public information pro- grams. For example, the Army established an Army Information School at Carlisle Barracks, Pennsylvania, in 1946 and began publication of the Army I'-'forr'ation Digest.
