  • The United States Navy Looks at Its African American Crewmen, 1755-1955
    “MANY OF THEM ARE AMONG MY BEST MEN”: THE UNITED STATES NAVY LOOKS AT ITS AFRICAN AMERICAN CREWMEN, 1755-1955 by MICHAEL SHAWN DAVIS B.A., Brooklyn College, City University of New York, 1991 M.A., Kansas State University, 1995 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2011 Abstract Historians of the integration of the American military and African American military participation have argued that the post-World War II period was the critical period for the integration of the U.S. Navy. This dissertation argues that World War II was “the” critical period for the integration of the Navy because, in addition to forcing the Navy to change its racial policy, the war altered the Navy’s attitudes towards its African American personnel. African Americans have a long history in the U.S. Navy. In the period between the French and Indian War and the Civil War, African Americans served in the Navy because whites would not. This is especially true of the peacetime service, where conditions, pay, and discipline dissuaded most whites from enlisting. During the Civil War, a substantial number of escaped slaves and other African Americans served. Reliance on racially integrated crews survived beyond the Civil War and the abolition of slavery, only to succumb to the principle of “separate but equal,” validated by the Supreme Court in the Plessy case (1896). As racial segregation took hold and the era of “Jim Crow” began, the Navy separated the races, a task completed by the time America entered World War I.

  • On the Treadmill to Pearl Harbor: the Memoirs of Admiral James O
    Review Article On the Treadmill to Pearl Harbor: The Memoirs of Admiral James O. Richardson (USN Retired), As Told to Vice Admiral George C. Dyer (USN Retired). Washington DC: Naval Historical Division, Department of the Navy, 1973, 471 pages. Martin Merson On the Treadmill to Pearl Harbor: The Memoirs of Admiral James O. Richardson (USN Retired), As Told to Vice Admiral George C. Dyer (USN Retired), with an introduction by Vice Admiral Edwin B. Hooper, (USN Retired), Director of Naval History, is a fundamental book for anyone in- terested in ascertaining the truth concerning the Japanese attack at Pearl Harbor, including the role of Franklin D. Roosevelt (FDR) and the Navy’s state of readiness. A review of the Richardson book appeared in Officer Review (The Military Order of the World Wars), Vol. 27, No. 6, January 1988, page 5.1 Although this book was completed in 1958, the publication date appearing in the book is 1973. To this reviewer’s knowledge there is no satisfactory explanation for the fifteen-year delay in making the book avail- able to the public. We have unofficial information that the delay may have been due to the fact that Harold Stark, Chief of Naval operations during the crucial early war years, did not die until 1972; the book is indeed highly critical of Admiral Stark. This writer has also been told that Admiral Arthur 1Martin Merson, “On the Treadmill to Pearl Harbor” Officer Review (The Military Order of the World Wars, 6 January 1988). 1 Radford, then serving as Chief of Naval Operations, insisted that Chapter XXII, entitled “Retrospect,” be included as a condition for publication.

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.

  • U.S. Army Air Force Antisubmarine Operations During the Battle of the Atlantic
    Introduction On May 12, 1938, three B-17 “Flying Fortress” heavy bombers flew 610 miles out to sea and intercepted the Italian liner Rex . A young U.S. Army Air Corps officer named Curtis LeMay was a “navigator” in one of the bombers exercising Army Air Corps defense of the Eastern Coast of the Figure 1. http://www.nationalmuseum.af.mil/factsheets United States of America.1 The successful interception appeared to demonstrate that the future of warfare lay in the third dimension. The ghost of Billy Mitchell certainly smiled. 2 Yet, despite the apparent success of the exercise, it is interesting that the Army Air Corps demonstrated its capabilities by intercepting a ship at sea, as opposed to the terrestrial targets of its nascent strategic bombing doctrine. The use of land-based aircraft in strategic attacks into enemy territory represented the core of the Army’s Air Corps doctrine. At stake was the prospect of an air force independent from the Army and the Navy. During the Battle of the Atlantic however, the U.S. Army Air Force extended its doctrine to include the counter German U-boat and the protection of vital shipping lanes to demonstrate the decisiveness of independent and offensive air operations in a maritime war. 1 John T. Correll, “Rendezvous with the Rex,” Air Force Magazine , December 2008, 54-55. 2 Robert T. Finney, History of the Air Corps Tactical School , (Research Studies Institute, USAF Historical Division, Air University 1955), 4. As the highest ranking Army Aviation officer in Europe during World War I, Mitchell was a strong advocate of “mass employment of military aviation.” Mitchell had significant influence on the development of air power as a military asset for the United States.
