  • D-Day—June 6, 1944
    D-Day—June 6, 1944 On June 6, 1944, approximately 150,000 American, British, and Canadian forces attempted to take control of five beaches along the coast of France. The beaches were in the Normandy region, and the this operation is sometimes called the Battle of Normandy. The landings of the troops in the Normandy region and the battles to take control of this area have been referred to as the beginning of the end of World War II in Europe. Adolf Hitler, the ruler of Germany at the time of World War II, knew that the Allies were going to try something to win the war, but he did not know what it would be. Hitler put Erwin Rommel, one of his top commanders at the time, in charge of defense along the northern coast of France. Rommel was to finish an Atlantic Wall, which was a fortification along the coast that stretched over 2,000 miles in length. This fortification consisted of landmines, bunkers, and obstacles in the water and on the beach. Many deceptions were used by the Allies to convince Germany that the invasion would be coming from another area, but by dawn on June 6, 1944, the invasion had begun, with thousands of troops already on the ground behind enemy lines. These troops were paratroopers and glider troops, and their objective was to prevent the Germans from using the bridges and roads to escape or to bring in reinforcements. By 6:30 a.m., the first invasions had begun by water, with British, Canadian, and American troops invading from boats that brought them as close to the shores as they could.

  • Too Young to Be Old
    Too Young to be Old To most of us, 33 doesn’t seem very old. But, when you’re surrounded by young men in their late teens and early 20s, your perspective might change a bit. Forrest Hugh Coleman, Jr. of Laurens found himself in just this situation when he was called to active duty in November 1942. Coleman enrolled in Clemson College in just as the Great Depression began to squeeze the momentum from the United States economy. A member of the Class of 1933, Coleman was selected as the Best Drilled Cadet during his sophomore year of 1930. Coleman was an electrical engineering major and served as vice president of the Laurens County Club, was a member of the Sabre Club and attended ROTC training at Fort McClellan, Alabama. Coleman married the former Caroline Burroughs of Augusta, Georgia. They were the parents of a daughter, Sue, and son, Forrest Hugh III. In October 1940, the United States implemented its first peace-time draft. Draftees were called to federal service for a twelve month term to undergo basic military training. Fearful of the international situation, President Roosevelt in the summer of 1941 asked Congress to extend the draftees’ tours of duty beyond twelve months. After the United States entered World War II, a new Selective Service Act made men between 18 and 45 eligible for military service and required all men between the ages of 18 and 65 to register. By April 1942, the Army was inducting young men at the rate of almost 150,000 a month. The supply of 1-A men, those deemed “available for military service,” from the 1940 registration was running out.

  • (June 1941) and the Development of the British Tactical Air Doctrine
    Journal of Military and Strategic VOLUME 14, ISSUE 1, FALL 2011 Studies A Stepping Stone to Success: Operation Battleaxe (June 1941) and the Development of the British Tactical Air Doctrine Mike Bechthold On 16 February 1943 a meeting was held in Tripoli attended by senior American and British officers to discuss the various lessons learned during the Libyan campaign. The focus of the meeting was a presentation by General Bernard Montgomery. This "gospel according to Montgomery," as it was referred to by Air Chief Marshal Arthur Tedder, set out very clearly Monty's beliefs on how air power should be used to support the army.1 Among the tenets Montgomery articulated was his conviction of the importance of air power: "Any officer who aspires to hold high command in war must understand clearly certain principles regarding the use of air power." Montgomery also believed that flexibility was the greatest asset of air power. This allowed it to be applied as a "battle-winning factor of the first importance." As well, he fully endorsed the air force view of centralized control: "Nothing could be more fatal to successful results than to dissipate the air resource into small packets placed under the control of army formation commanders, with each packet working on its own plan. The soldier must not expect, or wish, to exercise direct command over air striking forces." Montgomery concluded his discussion by stating that it was of prime importance for the army and air 1 Arthur Tedder, With Prejudice: The war memoirs of Marshal of the Royal Air Force, Lord Tedder (London: Cassell, 1966), p.
