Wa..o;bing/on, DC 20408 GENERAL WILLIAH J. DONOVAN SELECTED OSS DOCUMENTS, 1941-1945 MICROFILM ROLL LIST AND INDEX RECORD GROUP 226 ENTRY 180 On September 20, 1945, despite the efforts of General William Donovan, President Truman issued an executive order (E.O. 9621) terminating the OSS, effective 1 October. In the few days remaining to the agency, General Donovan ordered Lt. Edwin J. Putzell to assist him in microfilming select documents from Donovan's safe files for his own action and personal· use. Donovan and Putzell worked, under pressure of time, with a Kodak Recordak Camera to produce 131 rolls of 35 rom microfilm from the records of the Donovan files. Due to.haste, the quality of the microfilm was poor and the records often misarranged. In addition, Donovan also obtained for his own use 62 rolls of 16 rom microfilm of select cable files. The cable files had been microfilmed by the ass Communications Branch, which had produced a comparatively readable film copy of its own Rand C traffic. Ater the war, Donovan stored the 193 rolls of microfilm at the offices of the law firm of Donovan Leisure Newton and Irvine in the Rockefeller Plaza in New York. ~ When William Donovan died in 1959, Otto C. Doering took charge of his papers. A member of Donovan's law firm si~ce 1935, Doering had served as Executive Officer in the ass Washington Director's Office. Doering allowed the historian Anthony Cave Brown, who was planning to write a biography of Donovan, to see the microfilm as early as 1977-78. At .,,/ Doering's death in 1979, his wife returned the 193 rolls of microfilm to the law firm, which passed them on to Brown •. In 1982, Brown·gave the microfilm to William Donovan's son, David, who transferred the microfilm, along with some 100 cubic feet of Donovan's textual records, to the U.S. Army Military Historical Institute at Carlisle Barracks. When the Department of the Navy made a diazo copy of the microfilm in the possession of Carlisle Barracks, ~he Central Intelligence Agency was informed in accordance with Executive Order 12356. The CIA then obtained the Donovan Files microfilm for security review. After completing its review, the CIA provided Crlisle Barracks and the National Archives with sanitized copies. At least four sets of the Donovan Files microfilm are known to have existed: 1. Donovan estate set - the original 193 rolls taken by Gen~ral Donovan in 1945. 2. G. Edward Buxton - destroyed 3. CIA set 4. Churchill College, Cambridge University set - ~r. Brown allowed Churchill College to copy parts of the microfilm relating to Britain and Europe. The Donovan Files microfilm may include material found in Record Group 226.· It seems likely the microfilm duplicates at least some of the records in the files of the OSS .

Two case studies help unravel characteristics of this dominant discourse: The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s attempt to delegitimize the Nation of Islam by characterizing its leadership and doctrine as violent, racist, and unorthodox; and the Central Intelligence Agency and State Department’s simultaneous effort to validate Islam and Islamism in the Middle East by positing them as ideological forces against communism and Arab Nationalism. Interactional and interdisciplinary consideration of archived rhetorical artifacts uncovers how motives to expand US empire, quell anti-imperial and anti-racist resistance, and advance early Cold War objectives encouraged executive agents to reframe Islam.

Constanta Branch Abstract: Although linked to the Austro-Hungarian Empire by a secret alliance treaty in 1883, Romania chose to declare itself neutral at the outbreak of hostilities in July 1914, relying on the interpretation of the "casus foederis" clauses. The army was in 1914 -1915 completely unprepared for such a war, public opinion, although pro-Entente in most of it, was not ready for this kind of war, and Ion I. C. Bratianu was convinced that he had to obtain a written assurance from the Russian Empire in view of his father's unpleasant experience from 1877-1878. This article analyze the political and military decisions after Romania entry in Great War. Although linked to the Austro-Hungarian Empire by a secret alliance treaty in 1883, Romania chose to declare itself neutral at the outbreak of hostilities in July 1914, relying on the interpretation of the "casus foederis" clauses. In the south, Romania has three major strategic interests in this region: - defense of the long Danubian border and the land border between the Danube and the Black Sea; - the keep open of the Bosphorus and Dardanelles, through which 90% of the Romanian trade were made; - avoiding the isolation or political encirclement of Romania by keeping open the Thessaloniki-Nis- Danube communication, preventing its blocking as a result of local conflicts or taking over under strict control by one of the great powers in the region[1].

  • Cryptography
    Cryptography From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search "Secret code" redirects here. For the Aya Kamiki album, see Secret Code. German Lorenz cipher machine, used in World War II to encrypt very-high-level general staff messages Cryptography (or cryptology; from Greek κρυπτός, kryptos, "hidden, secret"; and γράφ, gráph, "writing", or -λογία, -logia, respectively)[1] is the practice and study of hiding information. Modern cryptography intersects the disciplines of mathematics, computer science, and engineering. Applications of cryptography include ATM cards, computer passwords, and electronic commerce. Cryptology prior to the modern age was almost synonymous with encryption, the conversion of information from a readable state to nonsense. The sender retained the ability to decrypt the information and therefore avoid unwanted persons being able to read it. Since WWI and the advent of the computer, the methods used to carry out cryptology have become increasingly complex and its application more widespread. Alongside the advancement in cryptology-related technology, the practice has raised a number of legal issues, some of which remain unresolved.
