World War II With freedom and opportunity in their dreams, millions have flocked to American shores since the birth of the immigrant-built republic. In predictable cycles, anti-immigrant sentiment waxes and wanes, driven by a complex formula of ethnicity, prejudice and economics. In Texas in the 1840s the newcomers were German and, in our latest additions to TheHistoryNet, we recall the intense conflicts that resulted decades later. ~Roger L.

[LOOK] Information / WebPages on World War 1[LOOK] So, here they are! The assassination of Archduke Francis Ferdinand triggered World War 1. But the war had its origins in developments of the 1800's. The main causes of World War 1 were: The rise in nationalism Build-up of military might System of military alliances The rise of nationalism. A build-up of military might occurred among European countries before World War 1 broke out. Nationalism encouraged public support for military build-ups and for a country's use of force to achieve its goals. By the late 1800's, Germany had the best-trained army in the world. In 1898 Germany began developing a naval force that was big enough to challenge the British navy. In 1906, the British navy launched the Dreadnought, the first modern battleship. The Dreadnought had greater firepower that any other ship of its time. Germany rushed to construct on just like it. Advances in technology helped aid in making military forces stronger. Machine guns and other new arms fired more accurately and more rapidly than earlier weapons. By the end of the 1800's, technology enabled countries to fight longer and bear greater losses that ever before.

Extractions: Veteran of D-Day and the Battle of the Bulge Updated April, 2003 A few years ago, I uncovered a small treasure. It was a document that I had longed to find. And when I finally found it, held it in my hands, it was as if a key had turned within a lock. It was my grandfather's Honorable Discharge. William D. Rhodes, born on 17 December 1917, was 25 when he joined up. Three years later, he was much older. He had seen the bloody Normandy beach code-named Omaha. He had stared into the mists of a snowy forest named Ardennes, a frozen hell where over a million men fought the largest land battle of the war. He had mysteriously "acquired" a motorcycle and cruised the frozen lanes of Belgium, meeting up with a Belgian lass known only as Collette. He had seen a Nazi death camp. And, somewhere along the way, someone had handed him a Silver Star. He was a member of the 3rd Armored Division, the Spearhead that drove into the heart of Nazi Germany. The unstoppable 3rd was the first allied unit to enter Germany, the first to capture a German town (Roetgen), and the first to breach the infamous Siegfried Line. And, when the bloody end finally came, it was the last unit of the First Army's VII Corps to cease firing.

Cryptology: Navajo Code Talkers In World War II
A fact sheet about Navajo code talkers and how they took part in every assault the US Marines conducted in the Pacific from 1942 to 1945.
http://www.history.navy.mil/faqs/faq61-2.htm

Extractions: Navajo Code Talker Dictionary Guadalcanal, Tarawa, Peleliu, Iwo Jima: the Navajo code talkers took part in every assault the U.S. Marines conducted in the Pacific from 1942 to 1945. They served in all six Marine divisions, Marine Raider battalions and Marine parachute units, transmitting messages by telephone and radio in their native language a code that the Japanese never broke. The idea to use Navajo for secure communications came from Philip Johnston, the son of a missionary to the Navajos and one of the few non-Navajos who spoke their language fluently. Johnston, reared on the Navajo reservation, was a World War I veteran who knew of the military's search for a code that would withstand all attempts to decipher it. He also knew that Native American languagesnotably Choctawhad been used in World War I to encode messages. Johnston believed Navajo answered the military requirement for an undecipherable code because Navajo is an unwritten language of extreme complexity. Its syntax and tonal qualities, not to mention dialects, make it unintelligible to anyone without extensive exposure and training. It has no alphabet or symbols, and is spoken only on the Navajo lands of the American Southwest. One estimate indicates that less than 30 non-Navajos, none of them Japanese, could understand the language at the outbreak of World War II.

Extractions: WASHINGTON DC 20374-5060 After the 7 December 1941 Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and the United States entry into the war, the use of civilian labor in war zones became impractical. Under international law civilians were not permitted to resist enemy military attack. Resistance meant summary execution as guerrillas. The need for a militarized Naval Construction Force to build advance bases in the war zone was self-evident. Therefore, Rear Admiral Ben Moreell determined to activate, organize, and man Navy construction units. On 28 December 1941, he requested specific authority to carry out this decision, and on 5 January 1942, he gained authority from the Bureau of Navigation to recruit men from the construction trades for assignment to a Naval Construction Regiment composed of three Naval Construction Battalions. This is the actual beginning of the renowned Seabees, who obtained their designation from the initial letters of C onstruction B attalion. Admiral Moreell personally furnished them with their official motto:
Casco Bay Online: World War II
A brief history of Maine forts focusing on those which are now state historic This book has many wonderful photographs of Maine world war II veterans.
http://www.cascobay.com/history/bayww2/bayww2.htm

Extractions: Published works on Maine during World War II asco Bay played a significant role in World War II from the beginning of the war to the end. Because of its proximity to the fighting in Europe, it was an important naval base, heavily defended by the Army. Almost all local industries produced for the war, but a new shipbuilding industry made a major contribution. And as in all other wars, local men, women and children contributed both at home and abroad. On Sept. 1, 1939, the Portland Press Herald announced that Germany had invaded Poland, signalling the beginning of the second World War. The impact was soon felt here in Casco Bay when in October, the Fifth Infantry Regiment shipped out from its home base of Portland to beef up the defenses of the vital Panama Canal. Click on the map to see a larger version After the Fifth left, a new anti-aircraft regiment, the 68th Coast Artillery, was organized in Portland. A year later, in September 1940, the 1,600 men of the 240th Coast Artillery Regiment of the National Guard were called to active duty to man the defense forts of Portland harbor. Additional barracks were constructed to house draftees who received basic training in Portland. The next spring, March 1941, the remainder of the National Guard - the 103rd Infantry and 52nd Field Artillery - and the Naval Reserve were called up and sent away for training.
