UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA


History of the University of South Carolina

Founded in 1801, then-South Carolina College flourished pre-Civil War, overcame post-war struggles, was rechartered in 1906 as a university, and transformed itself as a national institution in the 20th and 21st centuries.

South Carolina College, est. 1801

The Palmetto State established South Carolina College—the precursor to the University of South Carolina—on Dec. 19, 1801, as part of an effort to unite South Carolinians in the wake of the American Revolution. South Carolina's leaders saw the new college as a way to promote "the good order and harmony" of the state.

The founding of South Carolina College was also a part of the Southern public college movement spurred by Thomas Jefferson. Within 20 years of one another, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia established state-supported colleges.

In the antebellum era, the Palmetto State generously supported South Carolina College. The institution featured a cosmopolitan faculty, including such noted European scholars as Francis Lieber and Thomas Cooper, as well as renowned American scholars John and Joseph LeConte. Offering a traditional classical curriculum, South Carolina College became one of the most influential colleges in the South before 1861, earning a reputation as the training ground for South Carolina's antebellum elite.

Moses Waddel

1819-29

Biography

Born June 20, 1770, Rowan County, NC; Died July 21, 1840, Athens, GA; B.A. Hampden Sidney College (1791).

Waddel became a schoolmaster in Iredell Co., NC at the age of fourteen. In 1788, he relocated to Georgia where he ran a school near Greensboro. He attended Hampden Sidney College in 1790-91 and was ordained as a Presbyterian minister upon graduation. Several years of preaching and teaching (including John C. Calhoun) led to the establishment of Willington Academy in SC where he was headmaster when offered the Presidency of Franklin College. After leaving the university, he returned to Willington.

Accomplishments

When Waddel started his career at UGA, there was a faculty of one and student body of seven. He worked to regularize state funding, gaining solvency for the school in 1823. He brought a new climate of religious scholarship to campus and recruited zealously, raising attendance to 100 and garnering $2,000 for library improvements. Waddel resigned in August of 1829 after a prolonged feud with the Baptist faction at the University.

Moses Waddel

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Moses Waddel (June 20, 1770 - July 21, 1840) was an American educator and minister in antebellum Georgia and South Carolina. Famous as a teacher during his life, Moses Waddel was author of the bestselling book Memoirs of the Life of Miss Caroline Elizabeth Smelt.


Life and work

Born in 1770 in Rowan County, North Carolina, Waddel graduated in 1791 from Hampden-Sydney College with a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) and was licensed to preach by the Presbytery of Hanover.

Waddel (pronounced Waddle) began his ministry in the low country of South Carolina, but coming to view Charleston, South Carolina sophistication as sinful, departed for the backwoods 'upcountry'. In 1794, he founded his first 'log cabin academy' at Carmel near Appling in Columbia County, Georgia. In 1801, Waddel moved to Vienna and then Willington, South Carolina, where he founded the famous Willington Academy in 1804. These prep schools trained the future elite of Georgia and South Carolina with a strict classical education, in an environment shrewdly calculated by Waddel to foster self reliance and self motivation. Graduates generally entered university at the Junior year. The Debating Society in Augustus Baldwin Longstreet's Georgia Scenes takes place at Willington and, as written by Longstreet himself, "is as literally true as the frailty of memory would allow it to be."

In 1819, Waddel further enlarged his fame with Memoirs of the Life of Miss Caroline Elizabeth Smelt. Difficult reading today for its overwrought and pious sentimentality, Memoirs was a smash bestseller reprinted in the U.S. and Great Britain.

Waddel's Willington Academy was considered the high-point of his career. The school was often called "Eton in the woods', as a comparison to Eton College in the UK that produced the leadership of Britain. Students were required to memorize, translate, and recite 250 lines of classic Greek or Latin every night – and they did, often several times more. Later SC Governor George McDuffie, who once recited 2,212 lines of Horace, held the record.

Considered the foremost educator in the South, Waddel "received an urgent and persistent invitation" to revitalize the University of Georgia (UGA) in Athens. He became the fifth president and served from 1819 until his resignation in August 1829. Waddel found the school "nearly extinct, consisting of only seven students with three professors". With great industry he scoured the state and soon built enrollment to one hundred students. He acquired money for the library, garnered state funding, and raised three new buildings: Philosophical Hall (1821), New College (1823) and Demosthenian Hall (1824). As said by Longstreet, "The effect of his coming to this Institution was magical. It rose instantly to a rank which it had never held before, and which, I am happy to add, it has maintained ever since."

Clinton Presents Memorial as Symbol 'of FDR's Faith'

History: Ceremony honors former president's leadership, activism. Dedication comes off without threatened protest by advocates for disabled.

May 03, 1997 ROBERT SHOGAN TIMES POLITICAL WRITER

WASHINGTON — Franklin D. Roosevelt, who dominated this capital more than half a century ago, returned to center stage Friday as President Clinton led the nation in dedicating a memorial to his momentous years in the White House.

"This memorial will be the embodiment of FDR's faith . . . ," Clinton declared, "reminding us that whenever America acts with certainty of purpose and FDR's famous flexibility of mind, we have always been more than equal to whatever challenges we faced."

The American Presidency Project

William J. Clinton

XLII President of the United States: 1993 - 2001

Remarks at the Dedication of the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial

May 2, 1997

Thank you very much, Senator Inouye; Senator Hatfield; Your Highness; my longtime friend David Roosevelt and the members of the Roosevelt family; Mr. Vice President; to all those who have worked to make this day a reality. Let me begin by saying to Senator Inouye and Senator Hatfield, the United States proudly accepts the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial.

Fittingly, this is the first occasion of its kind in more than 50 years. The last time the American people gathered near here was in 1943 when President Franklin Roosevelt dedicated the memorial to Thomas Jefferson. Today we honor the greatest President of this great American Century.

As has been said, FDR actually wanted no memorial. For years, none seemed necessary, for two reasons. First, the America he built was a memorial all around us. From the Golden Gate Bridge to the Grand Coulee Dam, from Social Security to honest financial markets, from an America that has remained the world's indispensable nation to our shared conviction that all Americans must make our journey together, Roosevelt was all around us. Second, though many of us never lived under his leadership, many who did are still around, and we have all heard about him from our parents or grandparents—some of us, as we pass by WPA or CCC projects along country roads, some of us as we looked at the old radios that our parents and grandparents kept and heard stories about the fireside chats and how the people felt.

Today he is still very real to millions upon millions of Americans, inspiring us, urging us on. But the world turns, and memories fade. And now, more than a half-century after he left us, it is right that we go a little beyond his stated wishes and dedicate this memorial as a tribute to Franklin Roosevelt, to Eleanor, and to the remarkable triumphs of their generation.

President Roosevelt said—[applause]—thank you. President Roosevelt said, "We have faith that future generations will know that here, in the middle of the 20th century, there came a time when men of good will found a way to unite and produce and fight to destroy the forces of ignorance and intolerance and slavery and war." This memorial will be the embodiment of FDR's faith, for it will ensure that all future generations will know. It will ensure that they will all see the "happy warrior" keeping America's rendezvous with destiny.

As we stand at the dawn of a bright new century, this memorial will encourage us, reminding us that whenever America acts with certainty of purpose and FDR's famous flexibility of mind, we have always been more than equal to whatever challenges we face.

Winston Churchill said that President Roosevelt's life was one of the commanding events in human history. He came from privilege, but he understood the aspirations of farmers and factory workers and forgotten Americans. He electrified the farms and hollows, but even more important, he electrified the Nation, instilling confidence with every tilt of his head and boom of his laugh. His was an open, American spirit with a fine sense for the possible and a keen appreciation of the art of leadership. He was a master politician and a magnificent Commander in Chief.

And his partner was also magnificent. Eleanor Roosevelt was his eyes and his ears, going places he could not go, to see things he would never see, to come back and tell him how things actually were. And her reports were formed as words in his speeches that touched little people all across America who could not imagine that the President of the United States knew how they lived and cared about them. She was his conscience and our Nation's conscience.

Franklin Roosevelt's mission was to change America to preserve its ancient virtues in the face of new and unprecedented challenges. That is, after all, America's mission in all times of change and difficulty. The depth and sweep of it was unprecedented, when FDR asked a shaken nation to put its confidence in him. But he had no doubt of the outcome.

Listen to what he said in September 1932, shortly before he was elected for the first time. He proclaimed his faith: "Faith in America, faith in our tradition of personal responsibility, faith in our institutions, faith in ourselves demanded we recognize the new terms of an old social contract. New conditions imposed new requirements upon government and upon those who conduct government." That was his faith. He lived it, and we are here as a result.

With that faith, he forged a strong and unapologetic Government, determined to tame the savage cycles of boom and bust, able to meet the national challenges too big for families and individuals to meet on their own. And when he restored dignity to old age, when he helped millions to keep their farms or own their homes, when he provided the simple opportunity to go to work in the morning to millions, he was proving that the American dream was not a distant glimmer but something every American could grasp. And then that faith of his infused all of his countrymen.

With that faith, he inspired millions of ordinary Americans to take responsibility for one another, doing their part, in his words, through the National Recovery Administration, reclaiming nature through the Civilian Conservation Corps, gathering scrap, giving up nylons, and eventually storming the beaches at Normandy and Okinawa and Anzio.

With that faith, he committed our Nation to lead the world, first as the arsenal of democracy and then at the head of the great crusade to free the world from tyranny. Before the war began, the four freedoms set the foundation for the future and made it clear to the whole world that America's goal was not domination, but a dominion of freedom in a world at peace.

With that faith, as the war neared an end he would never see, he traced the very architecture of our future, from the GI bill to the United Nations. Faith in the extraordinary potential of ordinary people sparked not only our victory over war, depression, and doubt, but it began the opening of doors and the raising of sights for the dispossessed in America that has continued down to the present day.

It was that faith in his own extraordinary potential that enabled him to guide his country from a wheelchair. And from that wheelchair and a few halting steps, leaning on his son's arms or those of trusted aides, he lifted a great people back to their feet and set America to march again toward its destiny.

He said over and over again in different ways that we had only to fear fear itself. We did not have to be afraid of pain or adversity or failure, for all those could be overcome. He knew that, of course, because that is exactly what he did. And with his faith and the power of this example, we did conquer them all, depression, war, and doubt.

Now we see that faith again alive in America. We are grateful beyond measure for our own unprecedented prosperity. But we must remember the source of that faith. And again, let me say to Senator Inouye and others, by showing President Roosevelt as he was, we show the world that we have faith that in America you are measured for what you are and what you have achieved, not for what you have lost. And we encourage all who face their difficulties and overcome them not to give in to fear but to believe in their possibilities.

And now, again, we need the faith of Franklin Roosevelt in an entirely different time, but still no ordinary time, for in this time, new livelihoods demand new skills. We have to fight against the enormous destructive influences that still grip the lives of too many of our young people. We must struggle to make our rich racial, ethnic, and religious diversity a source of strength and unity when such differences are the undoing of millions and millions around the world. And we must fight against that nagging old doubt.

It is a strange irony of our time that here, at the moment of our greatest prosperity and progress in so many years—in 1932, one in 4 Americans was out of work; this morning we learned that fewer than one in 20 Americans are out of work for the first time in more than 2 decades. And at this time, where the pinnacle that Roosevelt hoped America would achieve in our influence and power has come to pass, we still, strangely, fight battles with doubts, doubts that he would treat with great impatience and disdain, doubts that lead some to urge us to pull back from the world at the very first time since Roosevelt's time when we actually can realize his vision of world peace and world prosperity and the dominance of the ideals for which he gave his life.

Let us honor his vision not only with this memorial today but by acting in the way he would tell us to act if he were standing here giving this speech, on his braces, looking at us and smiling at us and telling us we know what we have to do. We are Americans. We must have faith, we must not be afraid, and we must lead.

The great legacy of Roosevelt is a vision and a challenge—not a set of specific programs but a set of commitments—the duty we owe to ourselves, to one another, to our beloved Nation, and increasingly, to our fellow travelers on this small planet.

Now we are surrounded by the monuments to the leaders who built our democracy: Washington, who launched our great experiment and created our Republic; Jefferson, who enshrined forever our creed that it is self-evident that we are all created equal, with unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; Lincoln, who gave his life to preserve Mr. Washington's Republic and to make real Mr. Jefferson's words; and now, Franklin Roosevelt, who saved freedom from tyranny, who restored our Republic, who defined Mr. Jefferson's creed to include freedom from want and fear. Today, before the pantheon of our democracy, let us resolve to honor them all by shepherding their legacy into a new century, into a new millennium.

Our mission is to prepare America for the time to come, to write a new chapter of our history, inspired always by the greatest source of hope in our history. Thomas Jefferson wrote the words, but Franklin Roosevelt lived them out every day. Today I ask you to remember what he was writing at Warm Springs when he died, that last speech: "The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today. Let us move forward with strong and active faith."

My fellow Americans, every time you think of Franklin Roosevelt, put aside your doubts, become more American, become more like him, be infused with his strong and active faith.

God bless you, God bless America, and may God always bless the memory of Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

NOTE: The President spoke at 10:50 a.m. at the memorial. In his remarks, he referred to David B. Roosevelt, cochair, FDR Memorial Capital Campaign; and Princess Margriet of The Netherlands, President Roosevelt's goddaughter.

Franklin D. Roosevelt

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Franklin Delano Roosevelt (January 30, 1882 – April 12, 1945), also known by his initials, FDR, was the 32nd President of the United States (1933–1945) and a central figure in world events during the mid-20th century, leading the United States during a time of worldwide economic depression and total war. A dominant leader of the Democratic Party and the only American president elected to more than two terms


Polio

Main article: Franklin D. Roosevelt's paralytic illness

In August 1921, while the Roosevelts were vacationing at Campobello Island, New Brunswick, Canada, Roosevelt contracted polio, which resulted in permanent paralysis from the waist down. For the rest of his life, Roosevelt refused to accept that he was permanently paralyzed. He tried a wide range of therapies, including hydrotherapy, and, in 1926, he purchased a resort at Warm Springs, Georgia, where he founded a hydrotherapy center for the treatment of polio patients, one which still operates as the Roosevelt Warm Springs Institute for Rehabilitation. After he became President, he helped to found the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis (now known as the March of Dimes).

At the time, Roosevelt was able to convince many people that he was getting better, which he believed was essential if he wanted to run for public office again. Fitting his hips and legs with iron braces, he laboriously taught himself to walk a short distance by swiveling his torso while supporting himself with a cane.

Eye Contact

The winds reached 115 mph. The plane shuddered. All at once it emerged, like a train hurtling from a tunnel, into an oddly cheerful sunlight. The hurricane hunters had found their quarry.

By Michael Cannell

Sunday, September 1 1996; Page W18


I got my first glimpse inside a hurricane somewhere over Bimini. It was 6:30 a.m., and our plane had at last entered the storm's periphery. I climbed a short ladder from the fuselage to the flight deck, where five crewmen eyed instruments in an anticipatory hush. Through the cockpit window I could see a glowering range of thunderheads backlit by the rising sun. From 18,000 feet, the storm's outer arms, known as feeder bands, looked like vast gray tentacles stretched out below us. "In any other type of flying, you try to avoid bad weather," the pilot, Lt. Col. Terry Self, told me. "Here, we're headed straight for it. A lot of veteran pilots say they'd rather fly combat missions."

In his civilian life, Self is a Continental Airlines pilot based in Greensboro, N.C. He spoke in the whispered cadences of a Southern preacher, even as the tempest engulfed us. He has earned his equanimity: This was his 25th summer spent flying into hurricanes. Like his colleagues, he considers it a humanitarian mission.

Behind Self sat Maj. Rich Woodford, the weather officer. He would spend the next eight hours studying white thunderhead splotches on a green radar screen, and advising the pilots on avoidance maneuvers. So far the ride had been as smooth as any airline flight, but minutes after I entered the cockpit, the first gut-wrenching bouts of turbulence broke the calm. I tottered below and strapped myself into a mesh jump seat. Not far away -- just beside the no-frills metal cubicle that served as a head -- was the plane's supply of industrial-strength air-sickness bags. A blurb stamped on the bags' cover urged users not to feel embarrassed.

"Oh boy," I thought. "Here we go."

For an exact fix on a hurricane's location and intensity, meteorologists at the National Hurricane Center in Miami dispatch the 53rd Weather Reconnaissance Squadron -- the hurricane hunters -- on perilously bumpy excursions into the cylindrical eye. When I went along, during 1995's unusually intense hurricane season, our mission was to penetrate Hurricane Luis and record its vital statistics firsthand. The hairiest flying assignment outside of warfare falls to 10 rugged aircraft and a close-knit corps of 120 Air Force reservists. Half are full-time weather trackers; the rest donate two weeks a year from workaday lives as lawyers, mailmen, commercial pilots and accountants. "It's a small cadre," Woodford told me. "It's like a firehouse." For all our technical wizardry -- our Doppler radar and 24-hour Weather Channel -- we still rely on routine acts of human bravery to forestall calamity.

The urgency to learn a storm's destination in advance has intensified in recent years as increasing millions of dollars go toward protecting and replenishing sand-depleted beaches, particularly along the East Coast's fragile chain of barrier islands -- a chain that includes, in this general area, Chincoteague, Assateague, and Fenwick and Mackay islands, as well as popular resort destinations like North Carolina's Outer Banks. The potential for damage has escalated in recent decades, as shorelines have grown congested with condominiums, resorts and private homes. According to the Insurance Institute for Property Loss Reduction, the value of coastal property from Texas to Maine totaled $21.4 billion in 1993, a 166 percent increase from 1980.

The National Hurricane Center's predictions grow 1 percent more accurate each year. But the danger to coastal communities increases far more rapidly. Ocean City, Md., for example, can just barely evacuate its peak summer population of 250,000 over a pair of two-lane bridges within the center's 24-hour warning period. It would take the Florida Keys a full 40 hours. A hurricane that struck the Keys on Labor Day 1935 brought a 20-foot storm surge that submerged low-lying bridges and causeways and killed 400. A comparable storm today would exact an unimaginable toll.

The busiest hurricane season since 1933 was in full swing by the time I joined the hurricane hunters at Homestead Air Force Base south of Miami last September 6. A relentless procession of storms had deployed across the crowded Atlantic like bombs lobbed from afar -- Allison, Barry, Chantal, Dean, Erin, Felix, Gabrielle, Humberto, Iris, Jerry and Karen. The hurricane hunters had already flown 90 missions before September, including a record-breaking 24 into Felix.

If every hurricane establishes its own character, then Luis, the 12th named storm of the year, distinguished itself as the Big Bully. It swirled innocuously enough across the mid-Atlantic, then surprised everyone, as hurricanes often do, by bulking up to 140 mph before roaring across the Leeward Islands and laying waste to Barbuda, Antigua, Anguilla, St. Barthelemy and St. Martin, and killing at leat 16.

Puerto Rico braced for a lashing, but Luis spared it by turning sharply northwest just 24 hours before the anticipated landfall. Even so, Luis was the most destructive storm to hit the Caribbean since 1989.

The hurricane hunters operate from Keesler Air Force Base in Biloxi, Miss., but, in order to stay within a thousand miles of roving storms, they deploy from half a dozen airfields scattered across the Caribbean and United States mainland. They were flying out of Antigua until just before Luis struck the island. As the storm moved north, they kept pace by relocating to Barbados, and then Homestead, the southernmost base in the continental United States, which is where I joined them.

There could be no graver advertisement of hurricane power than Homestead; the base still bears the scars of Hurricane Andrew, the costliest disaster in United States history. As I drove across the base at 2 a.m., my headlights found scruffy patches where buildings had been sucked from the ground. Palm trees were either uprooted or defoliated. "It looked like a newsreel of Hiroshima," said Maj. Bobby D'Angelo, a base spokesman. "F-16s were removed on flatbed trucks." Hurricane hunters watched from above that morning as the storm mangled the base they took off from.

With this disquieting evidence in mind, I joined the 3 a.m. pre-flight briefing. Six crewmen in green flight suits stitched with "hurricane hunter" patches sipped coffee while the operations director, Col. Doug Niolet, updated us on Luis: The storm was now situated 600 miles off southern Florida. With winds of 145 mph, Luis had matured into the season's most menacing storm. The previous crew had endured its bumpiest flight of the year. Luis was now marching due north with bad intentions; a westward swerve could produce disturbing prime-time footage.

The briefing included two meteorologists from the National Hurricane Center. In a few hours, they would get their first live look at a hurricane. "I've waited my whole life for this," said Fiona Horsfall, who writes storm-tracking software.

At 4:30 a.m. we rode onto the tarmac where a floodlit C-130 Hercules with "Weather" painted across its tail fin hummed in preparation for takeoff. The C-130 has been the Air Force's all-purpose transport and rescue plane for more than four decades. It's a rough-and-ready affair well-suited for storm reconnaissance because it can stay aloft for 12 hours, and its propellers handle rain and turbulence better than conventional jets. "This is just about the most forgiving plane ever built," the copilot, Troy Anderson, explained in the folksy, right-stuff drawl favored by aviators. "You've got to screw up pretty bad to get into trouble." Still, I found no comfort in the knowledge that this particular plane was built in 1965, the year I attended kindergarten.

We entered a cavernous military-green fuselage stripped to bare wiring, hooks and steaming duct-taped pipes. At 4:45 a.m. the propellers rumbled to life, and we strapped ourselves into a mesh jump seat facing an auxiliary tank containing 1,800 gallons of fuel. For the next 12 hours it would be nearly impossible to converse over the drone of the four turboprop engines, except by intercom. I did hear someone whistle "Off we go, into the wild blue yonder," the Air Force anthem.

Like most hurricanes, Luis began as an embryonic cloud cluster over the hot Sahara. Of the hundred or so squally splotches that drift off Africa's northwest coast each year between June and November, roughly 10 bloom into tropical storms as they migrate west on the trade winds. On average, six coalesce into full-blown hurricanes with winds exceeding 74 mph. Two will strike the U.S. coastline. Over the years a number of hurricanes have struck the coastal areas near D.C.; the most recent, in 1986, was Hurricane Charley, which strafed Chesapeake Bay, Virginia Beach and other areas. It's exceedingly difficult to know in advance where a hurricane will make landfall; while satellite photos look impressive on the nightly news, they tell us surprisingly little about the nature of rogue storms bearing down on coastal communities. Satellite photographs, after all, don't show wind speeds or the fickle steering currents that influence a storm's itinerary. Usually, they don't even include the eye. Meteorologists don't know for sure what's out there until they send in a hurricane hunter.

I could hear the pilots throttle back on the engines as we entered Luis. Our nose dropped and we lost altitude. Self explained that forecasters are most concerned with surface winds because they're what coastal inhabitants experience if the storm strikes land. For this reason, we would swoop low through the storm to sample conditions as near the sea as possible.

The lower we flew, the stronger the winds. Luis's low-pressure vortex was sucking warm, moist air from vast distances, and it spiraled inward along the storm's bottom strata. As we rumbled eastward at 200 mph, the storm's counterclockwise winds buffeted us from the north. Self kept the plane on course by "crab angling" it 20 or so degrees upwind, like a swimmer crossing a current-filled river.

We clawed our way through withering gusts with reasonable composure. "Wind speed isn't important as long as the plane has its nose in the wind," Anderson told me. Rather, it is updrafts and downdrafts that concern pilots. When inward spiraling air hits a thunderstorm, the air blasts upward, like steam released from a caldron, to 50,000 feet. Even under ordinary circumstances, vertical lurches can be jarring enough to render the cockpit instruments unreadable. Hail can dent the plane's aluminum skin. It is not uncommon for lightning to strike the wings, surge through the plane and singe a pinhole as it exits the tail.

Self brought us down to about 8,000 feet. He dared not go any lower. Last June, while traversing Hurricane Allison, he lost 3,000 feet in about 45 seconds. He regained control 2,000 feet over the churning seas. "You wait for the plane to find the bottom," he told me. "You just hold on and try to level out. When that happens at night, it's like riding a roller coaster in the dark. You don't know where it's going."

For years the National Hurricane Center displayed a weather forecast for Galveston, Tex., dated September 8, 1900: "Rain, brisk to high northerly winds becoming variable." A monstrous hurricane hit Galveston that night, accompanied by a 20-foot surge of water. Six thousand residents died. Drowned bodies were found dangling from treetops 20 feet off the ground.

In those days, an approaching hurricane was only a rumor. Forecasters ventured predictions based on scanty evidence: weather reports cabled from islands or radioed from distant vessels. But there were never enough reports to accurately track a storm's whereabouts. Too often, hurricanes arrived unadvertised.

Certainly, nobody dared fly into a hurricane until the afternoon of July 27, 1943, when Col. Joseph P. Duckworth of the U.S. Army Air Corps took off from Bryan, Tex., in a single-engine AT-6, the only plane he could use without official permission. Duckworth was an Eastern Airlines pilot who had enlisted to teach airmen how to fly through bad weather by relying on the cockpit instruments alone. Nobody knew what a hurricane would do to a small plane, but Duckworth, accompanied by a young navigator, returned unscathed save for a few cuts and bruises inflicted by turbulence. Duckworth later said that his only fear was that heavy rain might extinguish the single engine.

Ludendorff Bridge

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Ludendorff Bridge (known frequently by English speaking people during World War II as the Bridge at Remagen) was a railroad bridge across the Rhine River in Nazi Germany, connecting the villages of Remagen and Erpel between two ridges of hills flanking the river. Remagen is located close to and south of the city of Bonn.

At the end of Operation Lumberjack (1 through 7 March 1945), the troops of the American 1st Army approached Remagen and they were much surprised to find that the bridge was still standing.

Abstract : On 7 March 1945, a task force from the US 9th Armored Division discovered the Ludendorff Bridge at Remagen still standing. It was the only Rhine River bridge not demolished by the Germans. Taking a gamble, the leading elements of the task force attacked the bridge, raced across and established a bridgehead on the east bank. The bridgehead was rapidly reinforced and expanded drawing units from other parts of the front. Although the Germans made repeated attempts to demolish the bridge and conducted numerous counterattacks, divisions of three US Corps (III, V, & VII Corps) were rushed across the river. The lessons of Remagen include defense of a bridgehead and exploitation of a successful attack.

Indeed, Obama's economic skills must have dazzled the board, for they hired him despite the subtantial liability of his spotty employment record. Although he beat out Okumu, Obama was assigned a trial period of six months and placed on a full year's probation. The board instructed Owuor to "have a word with Mr. Obama" and to explain that the trial period was necessary due to some "adverse reports received from his former employers," according to the minutes of the KTDC's September 8, 1967, meeting. What's more, Owuor was advised to "keep very tight control over [Obama] during this trial period. While problems such as over-drinking outside office hours may be considered personal they can no longer be considered personal if they affect and impair the performance of a member of the Corporation. Less than two months later Obama was the subject of just the kind of headlines that KTDC board members had most feared.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Soviet_and_Russian_espionage_in_the_United_States


History of Soviet and Russian espionage in the United States

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Since the late 1920s, the Soviet Union, through its OGPU and NKVD intelligence services, used Russians and foreign-born nationals as well as Communist, and people of American origin to perform espionage activities in the United States. These various espionage networks had contact with various U.S. government agencies, transmitting to Moscow information that would have been deemed confidential.


First efforts

During the 1920s Soviet intelligence focused on military and industrial espionage in the United States, specifically in the aircraft and munitions industries, and penetrating the mainline federal government bureaucracies, such as the United States Department of State and War Department.[citation needed] These efforts had mixed results. A front organization was created by a NKVD agent in 1928 for the infiltration and placement of scientists into industry and government: the Federation of Architects, Engineers, Chemists, and Technicians (FAECT). "The FAECT never attracted enough followers to make an impact in labor conditions, but it served the progressive cause in other ways."

Browder and Golos networks

One chief aim was the infiltration, placement, and subversion of American political life at all levels of society. Earl Browder, General Secretary of the Communist Party of the United States (CPUSA), served as an agent recruiter himself on behalf of Soviet intelligence.

Browder later stated that "by the mid-thirties, the Party was not putting its principal emphasis on recruiting members." Left unstated was his intent to use party members for espionage work, where suitable. Browder advocated the use of a United Front involving other members of the left, both to strengthen advocacy of pro-Soviet policy and to enlarge the pool of potential recruits for espionage work. The illegal residency of NKVD in the US was established in 1934 by the former Berlin resident Boris Bazarov. In 1935, NKVD agent Iskhak Akhmerov entered the US with false identity papers to assist Bazarov in the collection of useful intelligence, and operated without interruption until 1939, when he left the US. Akhmerov's wife, an American who worked for Soviet intelligence, was Helen Lowry (Elza Akhmerova), the niece of CPUSA General Secretary Earl Browder. Recent information from Soviet archives have revealed that Browder's younger sister Marguerite worked until 1938 as an NKVD operative in Europe. She discontinued this work only when Browder himself requested her release from duty, fearful that her work would compromise his position as General Secretary.

In the 1930s, the chief Soviet espionage organization operating in the U.S. became the GRU. J. Peters, headed the secret apparatus that supplied internal government documents from the Ware group to the GRU. Browder assisted Peters in building a network of operatives in the administration of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. This group included Alger Hiss, John Abt, and Lee Pressman. Courier for the group at the time was Whittaker Chambers. Browder oversaw the efforts of Jacob Golos and his girlfriend, Elizabeth Bentley, whose network of agents and sources included two key figures at the Department of Treasury, Nathan Gregory Silvermaster and Harry Dexter White.

One early Soviet spy ring was headed by Jacob Golos. Jake Golos (birth name Jacob Golosenko, Tasin, Rasin or Raisen) was a Ukrainian-born Bolshevik revolutionary and Soviet secret police (NKVD) operative in the USSR. He was also a longtime senior official of the CPUSA involved in covert work and cooperation with Soviet intelligence agencies. He took over an existing network of agents and intelligence sources from Earl Browder. Golos' controller was the head of the NKVD's American desk, Gaik Ovakimian, also known as "The Puppetmaster", who would later serve a key role in the assassination of Leon Trotsky. Golos was the "main pillar" of the NKVD intelligence network. He had worked with Soviet intelligence from the mid-1930s, and probably earlier. He was not merely a CPUSA official assisting the NKVD (an agent or “probationer” in Soviet intelligence parlance) but held official rank in the NKVD, and claimed to be an oldtime Chekist.

Golos established a company called World Tourists with money from Earl Browder, the General Secretary. The firm, which posed as a travel agency, was used to facilitate international travel to and from the United States by Soviet agents

I'll get Stanley a little brother.
Will you promise?
I promise.

Bread And Circuses

Stardate: 4040.7

Original Airdate: Mar 15, 1968


MCCOY: Captain, I see on your report Flavius was killed. I am sorry. I liked that huge sun worshiper.

SPOCK: I wish we could have examined that belief of his more closely. It seems illogical for a sun worshiper to develop a philosophy of total brotherhood. Sun worship is usually a primitive superstition religion.

UHURA: I'm afraid you have it all wrong, Mister Spock, all of you. I've been monitoring some of their old-style radio waves, the empire spokesman trying to ridicule their religion. But he couldn't. Don't you understand? It's not the sun up in the sky. It's the Son of God.

KIRK: Caesar and Christ. They had them both. And the word is spreading only now.

MCCOY: A philosophy of total love and total brotherhood.

SPOCK: It will replace their imperial Rome, but it will happen in their twentieth century.

KIRK: Wouldn't it be something to watch, to be a part of? To see it happen all over again? Mister Chekov, take us out of orbit. Ahead warp factor one.

CHEKOV: Aye, sir.
