  • The Japanese Village at Dugway Proving Ground: an Unexamined Context to the Firebombing of Japan
    Volume 16 | Issue 8 | Number 3 | Article ID 5136 | Apr 15, 2018 The Asia-Pacific Journal | Japan Focus The Japanese Village at Dugway Proving Ground: An Unexamined Context to the Firebombing of Japan Dylan J. Plung Abstract This paper explores a previously unexamined context to the firebombing of Japan. Analysis of the decisions leading up to construction and military testing conducted in 1943 at the Japanese Village at Dugway Proving Ground in Utah allows important insights into the evolution of US bombing strategy. The shift in US strategy from precision to carpet bombing, the testing and development of incendiary weaponry, and the institutionalization and rationalization of pursuing civilian targets throughout Japan are considered alongside this untold history. Additionally, a broader appreciation of World War II timelines is suggested. Keywords Napalm, firebombing, Dugway Proving Ground, Japanese Village, World War II, precision bombing, civilian bombing, Tokyo air raids. M-69 incendiary tests on Japanese style structures at Dugway Proving Ground. This and all subsequent images are from Standard Oil,Design and Construction of Typical German and Japanese Test Structures at Dugway Proving Grounds, Utah, 1943.

The Acquisition Management Directorate made the survey from April to July 1989. The objective of the survey was to evaluate the effectiveness of procedures established to acquire and manage test facilities at DoD proving grounds. Our evaluation included an examination of existing test facilities, facility requirements, modernization plans, and funding. We also evaluated the effectiveness of the policies, procedures, and internal controls used to limit the proliferation of test facilities and instrumentation at the proving grounds. Scope of Survey We reviewed five DoD proving grounds managed and operated by the Department of the Army. The proving grounds were Aberdeen Proving Ground, Aberdeen, Maryland: Dugway Proving Ground, Dugway, Utah; Electronic Proving Ground, Fort Huachuca, Arizona: Jefferson Proving Ground, Madison, Indiana: and Yuma Proving Ground, Yuma, Arizona. We interviewed Army headquarters personnel, proving ground commanders, technical di rectors, and facility managers on acquisition, management, capacity, and utilization of test facilities. We toured and inspected existing manned and unmanned test facilities at each of the locations, reviewed the Army's improvement and modernization plans for instrumentation (computers, calibrators, radios, antennas, etc.) and military construction for proposed test facilities for FY 1989 to FY 1995.

  • Base Structure Report Provides an Understanding of the Scope and Purpose of Dod Base Structure As It Was at the End of Fiscal Year 1999 (September 30, 1999)
    DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE BASEBASE STRUCTURESTRUCTURE REPORTREPORT FISCAL YEAR 1999 OFFICE OF THE DEPUTY UNDER SECRETARY OF DEFENSE (INSTALLATIONS) DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE BASE STRUCTURE I. INTRODUCTION Military installations are vital to national security. The real investment this Nation makes in its defense base structure and facilities is an investment in its military and civilian people – an investment that enhances the working and living conditions for our people which is repaid in the form of improved pride, greater performance and enhanced combat readiness. Defense installations and properties range widely in assigned personnel and the amount of property controlled: from unmanned navigational aids of less than one-half acre to the Navy’s installations at Norfolk, Virginia, with over 110,000 employees, and the Army’s White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico which encompasses over 3.6 million acres. II. CONTENT AND ORGANIZATION This Base Structure Report provides an understanding of the scope and purpose of DoD base structure as it was at the end of Fiscal Year 1999 (September 30, 1999). The report furnishes information on each installation, for the purpose of this report defined as a site owning more than ten acres AND having a Plant Replacement Value greater than one million dollars. Since the DoD owns few acres outside the United States or its territories, the criteria for inclusion of overseas installations was ten acres OR a Plant Replacement Value exceeding one million dollars. The report is organized by Military Service and then by state within the Service list. The report includes the installation location, the name of the nearest city, zip code, the number of buildings owned and leased, total acres occupied by the Services and the total acres owned, the authorized number of military, civilian, and “other” personnel.

  • Indiana Magazine of History for Defense of Our
    144 Indiana Magazine of History molding and shaping German-American life in Indianapolis, all of which culminated in the building of Das Deutsche Haus. He fo- cuses on what he labels “the best element” (p. 3)-the idealists or freethinkers of 1848-and excludes from his account any coverage of the lower social classes and the vibrant religious life of the In- dianapolis German community. The Festschrift is extremely valuable to anyone interested in the history of late nineteenth-century Indianapolis. The text pro- vides descriptions of “lost Indianapolis,” lists of members and offi- cers of local vereins, and an “historical advertising section” profiling the German-American business sector of the city for 1898. The volume is illustrated with wonderful photographs of Das Deutsche Haus and other key German cultural structures. This new edition could have been enhanced, however, by a photographic reproduction of the original text. The sponsors of this reprint are to be commended for preserv- ing this valuable historical record of Indianapolis and its people. When used in conjunction with Jacob Piatt Dunn’s Greater Zndi- anapolis (1910) and George Probst’s more recent Germans in Zndi- anapolis (1951; reprinted 19891, the reader can obtain a comprehensive view of the city’s German-American community in the late nineteenth century. It is hoped that as we approach the 175th anniversary of the city’s founding other organizations will follow this example and make additional out-of-print historical ma- terials available to the public. DAVIDG. VANDERSTELis assistant editor of the Encyclopedia of Indianapolis and adjunct assistant professor of history at Indiana University-Purdue University at Indianapolis.
