  • American Jews Serve in World War II by Seymour "Sy" Brody
    American Jews Serve in World War II by Seymour "Sy" Brody When the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, and the United States declared war on Japan and Germany, American Jewish men and women responded to their country's call for the armed forces. Over 550,000 served in the Armed Forces of the United States during World War II. About 11,000 were killed and over 40,000 were wounded. There were two recipients of the Congressional Medal of Honor, 157 received the Distinguished Service Medal and Crosses, which included Navy Crosses, and 1,600 were awarded the Silver Star. About 50,242 other decorations, citations and awards were given to Jewish heroes for a total of 52,000 decorations. Jews were 3.3 percent of the total American population but they were 4.23 percent of the Armed Forces. About 60 percent of all Jewish physicians in the United States under 45 years of age were in service uniforms. President Franklin D. Roosevelt praised the fighting abilities and service of Jewish men and women. General Douglas MacArthur in one of his speeches said, "I am proud to join in saluting the memory of fallen American heroes of the Jewish faith." At the 50th National Memorial Service conducted by the Jewish War Veterans of the United States, General A. Vandergrift, Commandant, U.S. Marine Corps, said, "Americans of Jewish faith in the Marine Corps have served with distinction throughout the prosecution of this war. During the past year, many Jewish fighting men in our armed forces have given their lives in the cause of freedom.

    BATTLE-SCARRED AND DIRTY: US ARMY TACTICAL LEADERSHIP IN THE MEDITERRANEAN THEATER, 1942-1943 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Steven Thomas Barry Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Allan R. Millett, Adviser Dr. John F. Guilmartin Dr. John L. Brooke Copyright by Steven T. Barry 2011 Abstract Throughout the North African and Sicilian campaigns of World War II, the battalion leadership exercised by United States regular army officers provided the essential component that contributed to battlefield success and combat effectiveness despite deficiencies in equipment, organization, mobilization, and inadequate operational leadership. Essentially, without the regular army battalion leaders, US units could not have functioned tactically early in the war. For both Operations TORCH and HUSKY, the US Army did not possess the leadership or staffs at the corps level to consistently coordinate combined arms maneuver with air and sea power. The battalion leadership brought discipline, maturity, experience, and the ability to translate common operational guidance into tactical reality. Many US officers shared the same ―Old Army‖ skill sets in their early career. Across the Army in the 1930s, these officers developed familiarity with the systems and doctrine that would prove crucial in the combined arms operations of the Second World War. The battalion tactical leadership overcame lackluster operational and strategic guidance and other significant handicaps to execute the first Mediterranean Theater of Operations campaigns. Three sets of factors shaped this pivotal group of men. First, all of these officers were shaped by pre-war experiences.

  • Jews in America's Military
    Jews in America’s Military by Seymour “Sy” Brody Author of “Jewish Heroes and Heroines of America Editor of “The Jewish Veteran” JUSTIN MORANSKI On August 22, 1654 Jewish settlers, from Recife, Brazil, and the West Indies, came to New Amsterdam seeking religious freedom and equal opportunities and obligations alongside of the Christian citizens. At first, Governor Peter Stuyvesant denied them these basic rights. Jacob Barsimson, Asher Levy, Abraham de Lucena, Jacob Cohen Henricques and other Jewish settlers petitioned Gov. Stuyvesant for the right to be a part of the defense force of the city, to establish a cemetery, trading and property rights and build a synagogue. Pressure from Holland forced Gov. Stuyvesant to grant them these rights, in 1654. This was the beginning of Jews serving in the military of our country—350 years ago. Today, Jewish men and women in the military are valiantly continu- ing the tradition of serving in our country’s military. They are in Af- ghanistan, Iraq and Haiti as a part of America’s Armed Forces. Some have Jews doing guard duty on the wall. given their lives, many have been wounded and others have been recognized for bravery with medals and decorations. In colonial times, the Jewish population numbered over 2,500 and was scat- tered throughout the country. In the Revolutionary War, many Jews were in General George Washington’s Continental Army. Lt. Col. Solomon Bush, who was decorated for bravery in battle, was the high- est ranking Jewish officer, In an intensified battle with the British at Brandywine, his brother, Captain Lewis Bush was mortally wounded, and he received a near-fatal wound.

Maps. photogsaphs. Illustrations. Notes. Appendixes. Bibliography. Index. pp. xxiv, 436. fi27.95. As distinguished historian Martin Blumenson notes in his Foreword, steven ossad and veteran Don Marsh have written a bio$raphy of General Maurice Rose, the famed American arrnor commander, "with sensitivity and skill" (p- xii). Rose was raised in Denver, the son of a Jewish businessman (and later rabbi). After serving in world war I, he decided to make a careet in the Army and gained distinction in world war II by commanding combat command A of the 2nd Armored Division in sieily and in Normandy, and then serrrin$ as commanding General of the 3rd "spearhead" Armored Divi- sion after the breakout Rose was a taciii.r, and aloof commander, and wore pattonesque riding breeches and boots, but his subordinates and superiors recognized his abil- ities and agjressiveness. The 2nd ar,d 3rd were the most powerful u.s. of his division was under his control. Across the Rhine, Rose's division led the vII corps drive to encircle the Ruhr, and it was near Paderborn that the General was shot down by a Ger- man tank commander (of the 507th Kdnigstiger Batt-lion) in the darkness of 30 March 1945. After exhaustive research, including deductions from the aulopsy report and despite inconsistencies, the authors conclude that Rose had dropped-his pistol belt and was t4ising his hands in surrender a second time when he was gunned down.
