    General Lesley J. McNair: Little-Known Architect of the U.S. Army By [Copyright 2012] Mark T. Calhoun Submitted to the graduate degree program in History and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ________________________________ Dr. Theodore A. Wilson ________________________________ Dr. Robert F. Baumann ________________________________ Dr. Christopher R. Gabel ________________________________ Dr. Jeffrey P. Moran ________________________________ Dr. Brent J. Steele Date Defended: April 6, 2012 The Dissertation Committee for Mark T. Calhoun certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: General Lesley J. McNair: Little-Known Architect of the U.S. Army ________________________________ Dr. Theodore A. Wilson Date approved: April 6, 2012 ii ABSTRACT General Lesley J. McNair demonstrated an innovative spirit and exceptional intellectual capacity in his efforts to organize and train the U.S. Army for World War II. The influence he exerted on Army doctrine, training, equipment development, unit organization, and combined arms fighting methods placed him among the handful of generals most responsible for both the effectiveness and the flaws of the force that the United States sent to war in 1942. Through his strong views and aggressive leadership, McNair played a key role in guiding the Army’s interwar mechanization and doctrinal development efforts. Many studies of this period have described aspects of his participation in that process. However, no comprehensive study of McNair’s forty-year military career exists, largely because he did not survive the war, and he left behind no personal memoirs or diaries when he died of wounds inflicted by errant American bombs in Normandy on July 25, 1944.

    WILLIAM TELL GARST AT WORK As cattle order buyer on the Kansas City Livestock Market, where he has spent more than fifty years of his life-a pioneer in this line of work-since he was the first man ever to be put on a straight salary on any public livestock market. OUR GARST FAMILY in America Compiled and Published by WILLIAM TELL GARST KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI All Material Edited and Arranged and Typed for the Printer by CLAUDIA COVINGTON GARST First Edition BROWN-WHITE-LOWELL PRESS KANSAS CITY 1950 COPYRIGHT, 1950 By WM. T. GARST Printed in the United States of America DEDICATION Lovingly dedicated to the memory of Benja­ min Franklin Garst and Arminta Hackett Garst, my well-beloved and very worthy parents. FOREWORD Philadelphia, the City of Brotherly Love, was the only specific destination for our earliest ancestors, when they boarded those slow­ moving ships, "Patience," "Molly," James Goodwill," "Isaac," et al, and came in search of freedom and justice. Next we hear of them located in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Bethel Township was to be their home. At that time Lancaster County was a wilderness. In 1785 the northern part of Lancaster County was cut off and called Dauphin County, with Harrisburg as the county seat, and in 1813 the eastern part of Dauphin County was cut off and called Lebanon County with Lebanon as the county seat. Hence records of Bethel Township are in Lebanon County, Pennsylvania. It is said that the early settler came with a gun on his shoulder, an axe in his hand, and a Bible in his pocket-the gun for protection from savages and wild beasts, the axe to clear the forest and build log houses, churches and schools, and the Bible to strengthen faith and lend spiritual guidance and courage for the task ahead.
