I also have these unexplained thoughts that I was a fighter pilot in the U.S. military, although I'm not sure which service, but I may have been in two different branches over time. I am also confused about thoughts that I may have been a helicopter pilot. What's next? A space shuttle pilot? Seems like a lot for someone that is only 40. And, while I am not sure when this divergence happened, I am reasonably certain it was before I turned 33. So I must have been a pretty busy guy. Especially because I have thoughts that I was some kind of mathmetician too. I have these thoughts too that I was captured by enemy forces at some point and tortured while in captivity.

U.S. Frigate Hits Mine in Gulf; 6 Sailors Hurt

April 14, 1988 Associated Press

MANAMA, Bahrain — The U.S. Navy frigate Samuel B. Roberts hit a mine near Iran's Farsi Island today while on patrol in the Persian Gulf, U.S. officials said. The Pentagon said six sailors were injured.


At the time of the blast, the frigate was returning from international waters off Kuwait, where it had escorted the U.S.-reflagged Kuwaiti tanker Gas Queen, the executives said.

The single-tanker convoy reached Kuwait on Wednesday. Regions off Farsi and others near Qatar have been infested with mines, believed to have been laid by Iran. U.S.-led Western minesweeping operations in the two regions and elsewhere in the gulf last summer detected and detonated dozens of mines.

No Mine Sightings Reported

It was off Farsi last July that the U.S.-reflagged Kuwaiti tanker Bridgeton hit a mine in the first U.S.-protected convoy.

Howard said there had been no recent reports by minesweepers in the area that mines had been sighted.

The explosion "caused flooding in the engine room and some hull damage. The flooding is under control, and the ship is in the process of pumping out the water. It's operating under auxiliary power," Howard said.

Howard said that the Wainwright, a cruiser, was en route to the site to offer assistance.

UNITED STATES NAVY

Admiral David Glasgow Farragut

First Admiral of The U.S. Navy


"Damn the torpedoes! Full speed ahead!"

Two years later In 1864, Rear Admiral Farragut was summoned from his Now York home to serve his country once more in leading an attack on Mobile Bay, the last Confederate stronghold in the Gulf of Mexico. Mobile Bay was not only protected by Fort Morgan and a fleet of wooden vessels, but also by the formidable Confederate Ram TENNESSEE and a field of explosive mines called torpedoes. Undaunted, Farragut readied his fleet for battle. Using a strategy that had worked before, he ordered his wooden ships lashed together in pairs, one large and one small. In this manner, if the larger frigate was disabled in battle, the smaller vessel could tow it into safety.

Farragut's fleet of wooden ships, along with four small ironclad monitors, began the attack on Mobile Bay early in the morning of August 5, 1864. When the smoke of battle became so thick that he couldn't see, Farragut climbed the rigging of the HARTFORD and lashed himself near the top of the mainsail to get a better view. It wasn't long before the TECUMSEH, one of the monitors leading the way, struck a torpedo and sank in a matter minutes. In a state of confusion, the fleet came to a halt in front of the powerful guns of Fort Morgan. Realizing the fleet was reluctant to move forward due to the "infernal machines," Rear Admiral Farragut rallied his men to victory, shouting: "Damn the torpedoes! Full speed ahead!"

The Union fleet steamed ahead through the minefield, blasted Fort Morgan, and captured the Confederate ironclad TENNESSEE. Thus, Mobile Bay fell into Union hands in one of the most decisive naval victories of the Civil War.

U.S. CALLED ILL-EQUIPPED TO FIGHT 'ON THE CHEAP' WAR BY TERRORISTS

By DREW MIDDLETON

Published: December 29, 1983

MilitaryAnalysis

American and Atlantic alliance sources appear surprised that the President and the Pentagon consider terrorism to be a new form of warfare. A NATO officer notes that the British have been fighting Irish Republican Army terrorism in Northern Ireland for years and that the French have recently encountered terrorism in Corsica.

President Reagan on Tuesday and the Long Commission report issued yesterday by the Pentagon both said terrorism posed a new military problem for which, in Mr. Reagan's words, the services are ''inadequately equipped.'' To operations and intelligence officers in the United States and the NATO alliance, this has suggested a need to recast American tactics in Lebanon and, perhaps, in other places where the United States might face terrorist attacks.

The effect of terrorist attacks in Lebanon, intelligence analysts pointed out, has been far more serious than the intermittent shelling and mortar attacks on Marine Corps positions around Beirut International Airport. Need for Special Forces Seen The Joint Chiefs of Staff, according to a senior officer who asked for anonymity, will push all three services to find military answers to terrorist attacks. This may explain the reference in the Pentagon report to the search for ''alternative means'' of deployment in an effort to reduce casualties.

Most sources said structural changes in the Marine Corps contingent in Lebanon appeared unlikely in the immediate future. Some, however, suggested that the Pentagon might call on units, such as the Green Berets, that are specially trained for countersubversion warfare. The sources emphasized that successful operations could not be passive, that special forces would have to take the offensive against terrorists. These sources said the Special Air Service units operated by Britain had scored significant successes in the Dhofar region in southern Oman, along the border between Ireland and Northern Ireland and, in the early 1950's, against guerrillas in Malaysia.

Offensive action against terrorists in Lebanon by troops of this type, one analyst noted, would alter the United States political position there from that of a peacekeeping force to a punitive military force. But he acknowledged that if terrorism is to be checked, it could be done only by ''irregular troops using irregular tactics.''

In the Lebanon situation, the Chiefs of Staff and the Pentagon have impressed allied military sources with their willingness to venture into fields formerly left to the State Department and the Central Intelligence Agency. The members of the Long Commission, one source said, considered the political, religious, diplomatic and military aspects of the situation not only in Lebanon but in Iran and Syria as well.

This departure from military limitations is likely to promote criticism in Congress, one colonel said. But he emphasized that the members of the Long Commission and the Chiefs of Staff had consulted academic and other authorities on the Middle East. ''I'll bet anything you want that the experience and education of both the Joint Chiefs and the commission is as good or better than that in the board room of any major industry,'' the colonel said.

U.S. Forces Spread Thinly

Talks with senior officers re-emphasize one overriding concern in their planning. This is their recognition that all the services are spread thinly across the world and that any diversion of reinforcements to one area such as Lebanon could weaken the United States military and political position in another area now quiet but likely to become important.

The Army, with roughly 40 percent of its personnel serving abroad and facing the possibility of future calls on its resources, is considering the formation of a new division. The 17th in the order of battle, it would be a light infantry division trained and armed for deployment across the world.

As being discussed in the Pentagon, the division would contain 10,000 soldiers, in contrast with the 18,300 in an armored division or the 18,500 in a mechanized infantry division.

Three years ago the Army chose modernizing arms and transport instead of adding 100,000 men and women to its strength. Today the probability, which in 1981 was only a possibility, that more troops will be needed to face contingencies abroad has led to discussion of the new division.

The division would use some of the weapons and transport developed at Fort Lewis, Wash., by the Ninth Division, with special emphasis on deployment in underdeveloped countries.

New Deployment Discussed

The Long Commission's comment on alternative means of exhibiting an American military presence in Lebanon has revived discussion of changes in the Marines' deployment and of alterations in the nature of the American presence.

From the outset, many senior sources in the Pentagon have argued that the Marines' position near the airport was highly vulnerable and urged that the force move into the hills overlooking Beirut. This, one officer said, was opposed by the National Security Council and the State Department on the ground that Syria and other Arab nations would consider such a move an offensive operation.

A second factor being discussed as a possible ''alternative means'' is the replacement of the marines by an Army unit more suitable to what is essentially garrison duty. The Army, most sources predicted, would resist this on the grounds that it is overextended and that to find the seasoned unit required would mean raiding Seventh Army in West Germany for troops.

American and allied officers feel strongly that an Army unit would act more effectively against terrorism than the Marine Corps has, partly because the Army would have been warned by past terrorist acts and partly because its training includes static operations rather than the ''hit and run'' tactics that are basic to the Marines' military tradition.

U.S. Sinks or Damages 6 Iran Ships in Persian Gulf Clashes : Tehran Strikes Back After Oil Rig Shellings

April 19, 1988 JAMES GERSTENZANG Times Staff Writer

In a separate incident, the Iranian frigate Sahand fired on an American A-6 aircraft, the Pentagon said. In response, three A-6 jets fired Harpoon missiles and laser-guided bombs at the ship, steaming in the Strait of Hormuz at the entrance to the gulf. A Harpoon missile fired by the U.S. destroyer Joseph Strauss struck the Sahand as well, starting a fire on the 310-foot warship, which reportedly had closed in on three U.S. ships near Larak Island and had refused to change course.

"It ignored warnings from U.S. aircraft and was then attacked," a Pentagon spokesman said. "All (missiles and bombs) seem to have hit the frigate, and it is heavily damaged."

The Iranian frigate Sabalan also fired on an A-6, which struck back with a laser-guided bomb. The Pentagon said that as darkness fell over the gulf, the ship was "down by the stern, with tugs fore and aft."

Jets Fired On

In addition, four Iranian F-4 jet fighters--supplied to the pre-revolutionary government of Iran by the United States--took off from the Iranian air base at Bandar Abbas at the beginning of the action but were airborne only a few minutes before returning to their base, Fitzwater said. During the time they were aloft, the aircraft bore down on the U.S. cruiser Wainwright, which launched two missiles at the Iranian jets.

`Endeavour` A New Start, Nasa Says

May 8, 1992 By ARDEN MOORE, Staff Writer

CAPE CANAVERAL -- Daniel Goldin, NASA`s new administrator, hailed Endeavour`s launch debut on Thursday as a new start for America`s space program.

The newest space shuttle shook off a threat of rain and hail to pound through a low bed of clouds at 7:40 p.m. on its way to an ambitious, eight-day mission.

``When I saw the flames shoot out of the bottom of Endeavour, I thought, `We have a fresh start,``` said Goldin, the former chief executive of TRW Inc. who plans to run the U.S. space program as a business.

He liked what he saw, saying that the $2 billion shuttle was built under budget, delivered on time and performed a picturesque launch.

The space program is at a critical crossroads, he said. The fleet of four orbiters must be capable of sending astronauts into space to repair the Hubble Space Telescope and build Space Station Freedom during this decade.

``We`ve got to sell our program to the public on merit and not on theatrics,`` Goldin said.

The big test for Endeavour -- which replaces Challenger, the shuttle that exploded in 1986, killing all seven crew members -- comes on Sunday. Its seven-member crew must capture and repair a wayward telecommunications satellite whose first job will be to broadcast this summer`s Olympics in Barcelona, Spain, to an international viewing audience.

The rescue, considered the most complex in the shuttle program`s 11-year history, involves the first rendezvous between an orbiting shuttle and a satellite. It is a $150 million gamble for Intelsat, an international satellite organization, which is paying NASA for the rescue.

Intelsat officials are banking on spacewalking astronauts to attach a rocket motor to their satellite on Sunday.

SOLAR COSMIC RAY MULTIPLY CHARGED NUCLEI AND THE JULY 18, I961 SOLAR EVENT


Abstract

Energetic helium and heavy nuclei (Z 2 3) were detected in the July 18, 1961 solar particle event. This result brings to four the number of solar cosmic rays bursts in which heavy nuclei have been seen.


The unbiased acceleration of multiply charged nuclei in every major solar event now seems more certain, and, therefore, it seems to be worth considering this feature in any theory of solar particle acceleration.


page 2

I. INTRODUCTION

With the discovery of heavy nuclei (Z >_ 2) in solar cosmic rays, a number of interesting questions arose, which can only be answered finally after many more measurements of the charge and energy spectrum of solar cosmic rays have been made. Toward this goal, we shall report here the results of measurements made on the helium and heavy nuclei in the solar event of July 18, 1961.

Niels Bohr


Niels Henrik David Bohr

Born: 7 October 1885, Copenhagen, Denmark

Died: 18 November 1962, Copenhagen, Denmark

Affiliation at the time of the award: Copenhagen University, Copenhagen, Denmark

Prize motivation: "for his services in the investigation of the structure of atoms and of the radiation emanating from them"

Field: theoretical nuclear physics

Prize share: 1/1

Work

The discoveries of the electron and radioactivity at the end of the 19th century led to different models for the structure of the atom. In 1913, Niels Bohr proposed a theory for the hydrogen atom based on quantum theory that energy is transferred only in certain well defined quantities. Electrons should move around the nucleus but only in prescribed orbits. When jumping from one orbit to another with lower energy, a light quantum is emitted. Bohr's theory could explain why atoms emitted light in fixed wavelengths.

Video Audience At Houston Ball Game Hear Suicide Shot

Houston – (AP) – Houston television listeners heard a 50-year-old laundryman commit suicide last night at a Texas League baseball game.

Stanford B. Twente shot himself to death as he sat beside telecaster Dick Gottlieb in a press box at Buffalo Stadium. The shot was heard over television and throughout the stadium.

Seconds later a TV camera focused on Twente's slumped body.

Police had a report a half hour earlier he had told a bar waitress he was going to kill himself and "to watch me at the end of the fifth."

The shooting occurred as pitcher Don Stephens of Houston stepped to the plate to start the last half of the sixth inning against Tulsa.

Justice of the Peace Tom Maes was among those watching the game on television. He returned an inquest verdict of suicide without leaving his home.

"I saw the man on television." Maes told Detective George Chapman.

Twente died in a hospital about two hours after the shooting. Police said a .41 caliber bullet struck him behind his right ear.

Twente appeared at the television booth and told Gottlieb "I got something to tell you."

Gottlieb waved the man away and continued narrating the game. Twente was seated between the announcer and the TV engineer, Lee Bennett. Just as Bennett started to get Twente to leave the box, Twente pulled a pistol, shot himself and fell across the engineer.

The TV camera was focused on the Houston dugout and listeners saw the Houston players suddenly turn and look toward the press box.

The camera then swung toward Gottlieb who told his audience:

"Ladies and gentlemen, a tremendous thing has just happened. A gentleman has just shot himself. I return you now to the studio."

Two minutes later the telecast of the baseball game was resumed.

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

Voyeurism is a practice in which an individual derives sexual pleasure from observing other people. Such people may be engaged in sexual acts, or be nude or in underwear, or dressed in whatever other way the "voyeur" finds appealing. The word derives from French verb voir (to see) with the -eur suffix that translates as -or in English. A literal translation would then be “seeor” or "observer", with pejorative connotations.
Also, the word voyeur can define someone who receives enjoyment from witnessing other people's suffering or misfortune; see schadenfreude.

The American Presidency Project

Harry S. Truman

XXXIII President of the United States: 1945 - 1953

207 - Special Message to the Congress on the Internal Security of the United States.

August 8, 1950

To the Congress of the United States:

I am presenting to the Congress certain considerations concerning the steps we need to take to preserve our basic liberties and to protect the internal security of the United States in this period of increasing international difficulty and danger. We face today, as we have always faced in time of international tension, the question of how to keep our freedom secure against internal as well as external attack, without at the same time unduly limiting individual rights and liberties.

Throughout our history as a Nation, our people have always--and properly--been wary of government action which limited personal liberty. At the time our Constitution was being debated, there was considerable fear that it did not properly safeguard the exercise of individual freedom. As a result, the first ten amendments to the Constitution--the Bill of Rights--were adopted, in order to make sure that the Federal Government would not infringe upon the free exercise of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, the fight of peaceable assembly, and the other basic rights which are essential in a free society. The Bill of Rights was then, and remains today, a stirring embodiment of our democratic ideals--an inspiration to free men everywhere and to those who would be free.

At the same time, the Bill of Rights was not intended to prevent the Government from maintaining our Nation's integrity against subversion or attack. For example, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, which is guaranteed in the Bill of Rights, obviously gives no license for the building up of an armed revolutionary movement within our borders.

Accordingly, the Government has enacted laws, from time to time, against espionage, sabotage, and other internal threats to our national safety. Each of these laws necessarily places some restrictions on individual liberty, for the protection of the Nation.

It has always been difficult to draw the line between restrictions which are proper because they are necessary for internal security, and restrictions which are improper because they violate the spirit or the letter of the Constitution. It is clear that on certain occasions, that line has been over-stepped.

Soon after our Government began functioning under the Constitution, there was enacted, in 1798, the group of legislative acts known as the Alien and Sedition Laws. These laws were ostensibly designed to prevent activities which would undermine the Nation's safety and independence. But in fact they were broad enough--and were used--to imprison many leading citizens, including a Member of Congress, who expressed disagreement with the policies of the Administration then in office.

The Alien and Sedition Laws were so repugnant to the free spirit of our people that they played an important part in the disappearance of the Federalist Party, which sponsored them, and the objectionable features of these laws were shortly repealed or allowed to expire. That experience taught us a great lesson: that extreme and arbitrary security measures strike at the very heart of our free society, and that we must be eternally vigilant against those who would undermine freedom in the name of security.

Since the time of the Alien and Sedition Laws, there have been recurrent periods-especially in wartime-when the safety of our Nation has been in danger. Each of these occasions has confronted us with a new set of conditions, to which we have had to adjust our internal security laws and procedures.

At the same time, each of these periods of danger has been seized on by those who, in good faith or bad, would severely limit the freedom of our people in a misguided attempt to gain greater security. As we look back now, we can see that there have been certain times when we have, to some extent, repudiated our own ideals of freedom in an excess of zeal for our safety. Nevertheless, it is a tribute to the strong faith and common sense of our people that we have never for long been misled by the hysterical cries of those who would suppress our Constitutional freedoms.

The present period is one of the times in which it has been necessary to adjust our security measures to new circumstances. The particular danger which we have had to meet has been created by the rise of totalitarianism--first the totalitarianism of the right, and now that of the left.

Today, we face most acutely the threat of the communist movement, international in scope, directed from a central source, and committed to the overthrow of democratic institutions throughout the world.

The major danger from the communist movement lies in its use of armed force and the threat of aggression through which it is trying to establish its control over free nations. To meet this danger, we are working vigorously with other free nations to build a strong and effective common defense.

Communist imperialism also seeks to weaken and overthrow free nations by working within their borders.

Through their own political parties, and by trying to make alliances with non-communist political groups, the communists attempt to gain political power. The best defense against this aspect of the communist threat is a vigorous, functioning democracy which succeeds in meeting the needs of its people. A vigilant people, who exercise their democratic rights to keep their government active in the interests of all, can defeat the efforts of communists to attain electoral power.

In the United States, the communist party has never received more than a minute portion of the national vote. The good sense of the American people, and their faith in democracy, have utterly rejected the false political appeal of communism.

As a part of their campaign to weaken free nations from within, the communists try to infiltrate and gain control of the most vital citizens' organizations such as unions, associations of veterans, business groups, and charitable, educational, and political societies. In this country, these attempts have-with few exceptions--been successfully thwarted by the common sense and hard work of the members of those organizations, who have defeated the communists through democratic processes, or forced them into isolated groups which are clearly and definitely identified as communist-controlled.

The success of our labor union members and leaders in exposing and eliminating communists who had managed to gain positions of authority in the labor movement is particularly noteworthy. This demonstrates that open and public democratic processes provide the most effective way to prevent communists from dominating the activities and policies of private groups in our country.

If the communists confined their activities in this country to the open and public channels of the democratic process, we would have little concern about them. But they do not so limit their activities. Instead, to serve the ends of a foreign power, they engage in espionage, sabotage, and other acts subversive of our national safety.

To protect us against activities such as these, we must rely primarily upon Government action. We must have effective internal security measures to prevent acts which threaten our national safety.

These measures must be accurately devised to meet real dangers. They must not be so broad as to restrict our liberty unnecessarily, for that would defeat our own ends. Unwise or excessive security measures can strike at the freedom and dignity of the individual which are the very foundation of our society--and the defense of which is the whole purpose of our security measures.

In considering the laws that are needed to protect our internal security against communist activities, we should remember that we already have tested legal defenses against treason, espionage, sabotage, and other acts looking toward the overthrow of our Government by force or violence. Strong laws exist on the statute books--a number of them enacted or strengthened in recent years--under which we have proceeded and are proceeding vigorously against such crimes.

The treason laws make it a crime for anyone owing allegiance to the United States to levy war against his country, to give aid and comfort to its enemies, or to conceal knowledge concerning treasonable activities.

The espionage laws make it a crime to gather, give, receive, or transmit documents or similar materials concerning the national defense of the United States with intent or reason to believe that they are to be used against the interest of the United States. Furthermore, these laws make it a crime for anyone who has national defense information to communicate it to any person not entitled to receive it.

The sabotage laws make it a crime for anyone, with intent to interfere with the national defense, to attempt to injure or destroy any material, premises, or utilities which are important to the national defense.

There are other laws which make it a crime for two or more persons to "conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States-- or by force to prevent, hinder or delay the execution of any law of the United States." There are also laws which make it a crime to advocate or teach the overthrow of the United States Government, or any State or local government, by force or violence, to organize any group for that purpose, or to be a member of such a group, knowing its purpose. In 1948, eleven of the most important leaders of the Communist Party in this country were indicted under these laws. After a long trial, all were convicted, and their conviction was affirmed by an appellate court on August 1, 1950.

In addition to the criminal laws outlined above, there is a set of laws governing immigration, naturalization, and travel between our country and others. These laws permit the Government to exclude or deport any alien from this country who may be dangerous to our internal security, and to forbid or to regulate the travel abroad of United States citizens who may be engaged in subversive activity.

The laws I have been describing apply to private citizens and groups. A special set of laws and procedures applies to Government employees. Here our purpose is to exclude or remove from Government service persons who may be disloyal, even though they have committed no crime, and to keep from positions of importance persons who cannot be trusted to maintain security regulations, even though they may be loyal citizens and satisfactory employees in all other respects.

More than three years ago, the Executive Branch revised and improved its procedures for dealing with questions of employee loyalty and security. These new procedures have proved effective in protecting the Government against disloyal persons and persons whose employment constitutes a security risk.

The various laws and procedures I have outlined make up a strong set of legal safeguards against acts by individuals and groups which strike at the internal security of the United States.

Over the last few years, we have successfully prosecuted several hundred cases in the courts under existing internal security laws. In this process we have obtained a great deal of experience in the application of these laws. We have discovered a few defects, some of them minor and others of greater importance, in some of the existing statutes. In view of the situation which confronts us, it is important that these defects be remedied. At this time, therefore, I wish to recommend that the Congress enact certain legislation before the close of the present session.

First, I recommend that the Congress remedy certain defects in the present laws concerning espionage, the registration of foreign agents, and the security of national defense installations, by clarifying and making more definite certain language in the espionage laws, by providing an extended statute of limitations (in place of the present 3-year statute) for peacetime espionage, by requiring persons who have received instruction from a foreign government or political party in espionage or subversive tactics to register under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, and by giving broader authority than now exists for the President to establish security regulations concerning the protection of military bases and other national defense installations.

Second, I recommend that the Congress enact legislation permitting the Attorney General to exercise supervision over aliens subject to deportation and to require them, under the sanction of criminal penalties, to report their whereabouts and activities at regular intervals. In a number of cases, aliens under deportation orders cannot be deported because no other country will accept them. A bill pending before the Congress would permit the Attorney General in certain cases to detain such aliens in his custody for indefinite periods of time--not pursuant to a conviction for crime but on the basis of an administrative determination. Such action would be repugnant to our traditions, and it should not be authorized. Present law, however, is inadequate to permit proper supervision of deportable aliens, and should be strengthened as I have indicated.

Under the leadership of the National Security Council, the agencies of the Government which administer our internal security laws are keeping these laws under constant study to determine whether further changes are required to provide adequate protection. If it does appear that further improvements in these laws are needed, I shall recommend them to the Congress.

By building upon the framework now provided by our basic laws against subversive activities, we can provide effective protection against acts which threaten violence to our Government or to our institutions, and we can do this without violating the fundamental principles of our Constitution.

Nevertheless, there are some people who wish us to enact laws which would seriously damage the right of free speech and which could be used not only against subversive groups but against other groups engaged in political or other activities which were not generally popular. Such measures would not only infringe on the Bill of Rights and the basic liberties of our people; they would also undermine the very internal security they seek to protect.

Laws forbidding dissent do not prevent subversive activities; they merely drive them into more secret and more dangerous channels. Police states are not secure; their history is marked by successive purges, and growing concentration camps, as their governments strike out blindly in fear of violent revolt. Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear.

We must, therefore, be on our guard against extremists who urge us to adopt police state measures. Such persons advocate breaking down the guarantees of the Bill of Rights in order to get at the communists. They forget that if the Bill of Rights were to be broken down, all groups, even the most conservative, would be in danger from the arbitrary power of government.

Legislation is now pending before the Congress which is so broad and vague in its terms as to endanger the freedoms of speech, press, and assembly protected by the First Amendment. Some of the proposed measures would, in effect, impose severe penalties for normal political activities on the part of certain groups, including communists and communist party-line followers. This kind of legislation is unnecessary, ineffective, and dangerous.

It is unnecessary because groups such as the communists cannot accomplish their evil purposes in this country through normal political activity. They will be repudiated by the people as they have always been.

It is ineffective because it does not get at the real dangers from the communists in this country. These dangers come, not from normal political activity, but from espionage, sabotage, and the building up of an organization dedicated to the destruction of our Government by violent means-against all of which we already have laws.

This kind of proposed legislation is dangerous because, in attempting to proscribe, for groups such as the communists, certain activities that are perfectly proper for everyone else, such legislation would spread a legal dragnet sufficiently broad to permit the prosecution of people who are entirely innocent or merely misguided. As far as the real conspirators against our institutions are concerned, such legislation would merely have the effect of driving them further underground and making it more difficult to reach them. Furthermore, if such legislation were held unconstitutional, as it well might be, it would make martyrs out of our worst enemies and create public sympathy for them.

Extreme proposals of this type reflect the widespread public concern about communism which most of our people feel today. In some communities, this concern has resulted in the enactment of unnecessary or unconstitutional laws or ordinances designed to suppress subversive activity.

We must not be swept away by a wave of hysteria.

It is natural, perhaps, to think that we can wipe out the dangers which confront us by passing a law. But we cannot get rid of communism just by passing a law. We must, of course, have effective legal defenses, but the principal protection of a free society against subversion is an alert and responsible citizenry dedicated to the advancement of freedom through democratic means.

This is the way to build real security for our country--and every citizen can help. Everyone in public life has a responsibility to conduct himself so as to reinforce and not undermine our internal security and our basic freedoms. Our press and radio have the same responsibility. Private groups of all kinds, and citizens in their daily work and in their homes, are equally concerned with the question of protecting our liberties and our national security. We must all act soberly and carefully, in keeping with our great traditions. This is important not only to our own country, but to the success of the cause of freedom in the world.

Throughout the world, communism is seeking to discredit our system of constitutional liberties. The communists know that the leadership and good will which our Nation enjoys arise in great measure from the fact that men here have the blessings of liberty. Consequently, the propaganda of communism is devoted to a bitter and unceasing attempt to blacken and distort our national character and our way of life.

This propaganda is a formidable threat to the unity of the free nations in working for peace. The best answer to it is not words, but deeds. We must demonstrate that we are a country in which men can live together and advance together as a free society. This alone can prove the falseness of the communist attack. It would be tragic in the highest degree if we were to frighten ourselves into destroying those very liberties which are the basis of our moral leadership in the struggle for peace.

I am determined that the United States shall be secure. I am equally determined that we shall keep our historic liberties.

Success in achieving both these objectives is of exceptional importance in the present period of international tension. For by our actions, we must maintain the United States as a strong, free people, confident in our liberties, and moving forward with other free peoples to oppose aggression and to build a just peace for all mankind.

GRAND PRIX RESULTS: MONACO GP, 1991

Monaco GP

Monte Carlo

May 12, 1991

78 Laps, 3.328 km

There was no change to the entry at Monaco and no change on pole position with Ayrton Senna fastest in his McLaren-Honda. There was a surprise in second place with the Pirelli-shod Tyrrell-Honda of Stefano Modena ahead of Riccardo Patrese's Williams-Renault, Nelson Piquet's Benetton-Ford, Nigel Mansell (Williams), Gerhard Berger (McLaren) and the Ferrari of Alain Prost. The top 10 was rounded off by the Benetton of Roberto Moreno, Jean Alesi's Ferrari and Andrea de Cesaris in his Jordan.

Modena made a good start but Senna took the lead with Modena second ahead of Patrese, Mansell and Prost. Berger ran into Piquet at the first corner and Piquet was out. Berger would disappear soon afterwards. After stopping for repairs he was charging back when he hit the wall in the Swimming Pool area while trying to wipe his visor.

Why Bush stopped flying remains a mystery

By Dave Moniz and Jim Drinkard, USA TODAY

WASHINGTON — Officers who flew fighter-jet patrols in the early 1970s with George W. Bush describe him as a gung-ho warrior and a gifted pilot who was popular in his Texas Air National Guard unit.

"He was a hell of a good pilot," one of Bush's former commanding officers, Walter B. "Buck" Staudt, recalled in December 2000, shortly after Bush was elected president. In 1971, he rated among the top 10% of fellow pilots. (Related: President Bush's military records)

The positive descriptions of Bush's military service make his sudden decision to quit flying in the spring of 1972 — two years before his pilot commitment was up — all the more puzzling.

Why 1st Lt. Bush stopped flying F-102 fighters remains murky despite the release on Friday of more than 400 pages of records detailing his Guard service from the time he enlisted until he was discharged.

An examination by USA TODAY of all the Bush records released to the public and interviews with pilots, Bush's Guard comrades and military personnel experts suggests Bush was treated differently from most pilots:

Bush was accepted into pilot school even though he scored in the 25th percentile on a standardized test. The test was given to all prospective pilots and there was no specific score that disqualified a candidate. In addition, Bush had two arrests for college pranks and four traffic offenses before applying for pilot training. Former and current military pilots say it was uncommon for an applicant to be approved for training with such a record.

There is no record of a formal procedure called a "flying evaluation board," which normally would have been convened once Bush stopped flying in April 1972.

Bush's records do not show he was given another job in the Air Guard once he quit flying. Pilots and Bush comrades say his records should reflect some type of new duties he was assigned.

Asked for an explanation about why Bush stopped flying, the White House said Bush "served admirably" in the Guard, was given permission by commanders to fulfill his obligations in ways that did not involve flying and was honorably discharged. "President Bush is proud of his service," said Dan Bartlett, communications director.

'Highly unusual' circumstances

Bush, whose father was in Congress at the time, was selected for Air Force pilot training, a highly competitive process, despite the speeding tickets and automobile accidents. He had also been arrested for two incidents considered college pranks: stealing a wreath in New Haven, Conn., and rowdiness at a college football game.

The combination of arrests and traffic violations and the score in the bottom quarter of those who took the pilot exam usually would have cast doubt on most applicants who were applying for pilot training, four former and current National Guard fighter pilots and one former Air Force pilot said. All served in the 1970s.

After Bush stopped flying fighter jets in April 1972 and did not take an annual physical examination required of all pilots, the Air Force should have required a hearing known as a flying evaluation board to determine his fitness to fly. Because the federal government spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to train each pilot, it typically did not allow them to stop flying without a formal proceeding. Bush's records do not mention a flying evaluation board.

The president's advisers and friends have explained that Bush stopped flying because his unit was phasing out the F-102 in 1972. They also say he was not able to get a required flight physical in Alabama, where his records show he was granted permission to train in the fall of 1972. Bartlett said there was no need for a physical exam because Bush stopped flying.

Guard records, however, show pilots in Bush's unit in Texas were still flying the F-102 in 1974, a year after Bush left the Guard.

And Bush would likely have been able to get a flight doctor in Alabama to give him a physical. The White House released records last week showing that Bush had received a dental exam at Dannelly Air National Guard Base in Montgomery, Ala., in January 1973.

Pilots who stop flying are given other Guard duties. In Air Force jargon, it's called DNIF, or Duties Not to Include Flying, which is a written order. There is no indication in Bush's records that his supervisors assigned him another job. Aides say Bush has told them that once he stopped flying, he performed "odds and ends" for commanders whose names he can't recall.

So far just one Alabama Guard member, John Calhoun, has come forward with specific recollections of seeing Bush on duty at Dannelly. He said he saw him eight to 10 times from May to October 1972.

John Richardson, a former Air Guard, Air Force and Air Reserve fighter pilot who served from 1978 to 2001, said regulations for Air Guard pilots during the early 1970s were much more relaxed than they are today. But even by the standards of the time, Richardson said, Bush's selection for pilot training and the circumstances under which he stopped flying are "highly unusual."

When Bush joined the National Guard in 1968, the United States was losing more than 250 troops a week in the Vietnam War. The combat deaths disproportionately excluded the sons of privileged families, some of whom used family connections to enlist in the Guard, which was rarely called for Vietnam duty. At that time, before the all-volunteer military was created, the Pentagon used draftees to fill its need for forces in Vietnam.

When Bush applied for membership in the Texas Air National Guard, it was collegial, almost exclusively white and, like other Air Guard units around the USA, far less professional than today.

"The attitude of a typical unit was more like a flying club than a professional military organization," said Chuck Devlaming, a Florida attorney who served two tours of duty in Vietnam and flew fighters for the Air Force and Air Guard from 1968 to 1988.

Devlaming also said, however, that it would be inaccurate to describe Bush or his comrades as performing safe duty during wartime. Flying a fighter jet anywhere, he said, is inherently dangerous.

The unit that Bush was assigned to in Texas, the 147th Fighter Group, defended the continental USA from enemy bomber attacks. Its pilots flew a hard-to-fly fighter jet called the F-102 Delta Dagger. Because most pilots who flew for the Air Guard were part-time officers who had other jobs, commanders were more lax about records and the whereabouts of pilots than Air Force pilots.

Bush's peers remember him as a good flier who, in his first two years as a pilot in 1970-71, flew his share of missions from Ellington Air Force Base in Houston.

Failed to retake physical

Then something happened.

In the spring of 1972, Bush's records show he stopped showing up for drills at his unit in Texas at about the time he requested a transfer to an Alabama Air National Guard unit. Military records indicate he requested the transfer so he could work for the political campaign of Winton "Red" Blount, a Republican candidate for the Senate and a friend of Bush's father.

Bush's last flight physical, taken in 1971, expired on July 6, 1972. He did not renew it, as required of all military pilots, which is noted in his National Guard records. He was suspended from flying in August for missing the exam.

When we were in Hawaii last fall, and we were welcomed to a school that we were visiting by a little 2nd-grader who bellowed out, George Washington! (Laughter.) He was close, just the wrong George W. (Laughter.)

I've had a really wonderful time watching my husband over the last four years. I've seen him as he's met people around the United States. I've watched as he's helped a family build their own home, their first home, a Habitat home. I've watched him with the men and women of our United States military at bases all over the world. (Applause.) And I've watched, and I know how he treats every person he meets with dignity and respect.

There are still -- you know, there are still enemies who hate us and they are plotting to harm us -- that's the world we live in -- and we've got a lot to do here at home to protect us. I'll just give you some thoughts about some statements that have been made about our staying on the offense in the war on terror. My opponent says that going to war with the terrorists is actually improving their recruiting efforts. I think the logic is upside-down. I think that shows a misunderstanding of the enemy. See, remember during the '90s, the terrorists were recruiting and training for war with us long before, long before we went to war with them. They don't need an excuse for their hatred. I think it's wrong to blame our country for the anger and evil of those killers.

"Mr Brightside"

I'm coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I’m falling asleep
And she’s calling a cab
While he’s having a smoke
And she’s taking a drag
Now they’re going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it’s all in my head
But she’s touching his chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, letting me go

And I just can’t look - it's killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Turning through sick lullabies [acoustic version of the song says: "Swimming through sick lullabies"]
Choking on your alibis
But it’s just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
‘Cause I’m Mr Brightside

I’m coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine

Lieut. Gen.Charles Herron, 100; Commanded Army Units in Hawaii

SPECIAL TO THE NEW YORK TIMES APRIL 25, 1977

HONOLULU,April 24 (AP)—Army Lieut. Gen. Charles D. Herron, who graduated from West Point in 1899 and saw his first combat that year at San Blas in the Philippine insurrection, died here yesterday at the age of 100. From 1938 until he retired in April 1941, General Herron was commanding general of the Army Hawaiian Division. He is remembered for his belief in the loyalty of Japanese-Americans in Hawaii after the outbreak of World War II.

The general was a veteran of the Spanish-American War and the Pancho Villa Mexican border conflicts and was in the Meuse-Argonne offensive of September 1918 in World War I. He returned to duty in World War II and served on the staff of Gen. George C. Marshall.

Hawaii, USA

Lieutenant General Charles D. Herron commanded the US Army, Pacific (Hawaiian Department) from 1938 until his mandatory retirement in March of 1941. The son of a Civil War veteran, he served in the Philippines as well as in World War I. His experience was in two different branches of the Army - first in the Infantry and later in the Field Artillery.

After two years at Wabash College in Indiana he attended and graduated from West Point in 1899. He later received a Master of Arts and doctor of law degrees from Wabash and attended the Army Staff College along with General George Marshall. Before World War I, Herron served as an instructor at West Point where he taught George Patton and his relief instructor was Douglas MacArthur.

During World War I, Herron served on General Pershing's staff before becoming the deputy chief of staff for the 1st Infantry Division. He then became Chief of Staff for the 78th Division of the American Expeditionary Force. He participated in the Meuse-Argonne offensive and the occupation of St. Mihiel.

After the war he attended the Army War College. He then served on the General Staff in Washington and as Chief of Staff for the Philippine Department in Manila. Back in Washington he served as Executive for Reserve Affairs. One of his aides in this assignment was Dwight Eisenhower. Before moving to Hawaii he commanded the 6th Field Artillery in Chicago.

In Hawaii, General Herron advocated for the integration of Japanese-Americans into the Organized Reserve since he believed they were loyal to the US over their ancestry. While this was not a popular opinion, his efforts helped keep the Japanese-Americans in Hawaii from being interned once the war broke out. Herron was also concerned about the defense of Hawaii, citing its vulnerability to attack by aircraft carrier.

Charles D. Herron

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Charles Douglas Herron (March 13, 1877 – April 23, 1977) was a general in the United States Army.


Later career

As head of the Army's Hawaiian Command from 1938 to 1941, Herron was promoted to lieutenant general and bucked Army conventional wisdom by advocating for the integration of Japanese-Americans into the Organized Reserves, reasoning that their citizenship trumped their ancestry. While his stance ran counter to public opinion, he was credited with helping keep Japanese-Americans in Hawaii from being interned at the start of World War II, as happened in California and other Western states. Herron also documented his concern about the military's ability to defend Hawaii, citing its vulnerability to attack by aircraft carrier. After the attack on Pearl Harbor, Herron provided evidence during the inquiry into the conduct of his successor, General Walter C. Short, stating that prior to Short's arrival he had provided General Short with a briefing book and other materials about the current situation in Hawaii, and that Short had acknowledged not having had time to read them before Herron departed.
