Preparations for war, essentially ending the Great Depression, affected the entire country, with Virginia particularly playing a major role. More than one million service men and women came to Virginia. The sheer scope of the military development in Virginia of the Army, Navy, Coast Guard and Air Force, providing training bases and support facilities, underscores the national resolve to be prepared.

Book Synopsis World War II Rhode Island by : Christian McBurney
Download or read book World War II Rhode Island written by Christian McBurney and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2017-05-22 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rhode Island's contribution to World War II vastly exceeded its small size. Narragansett Bay was an armed camp dotted by army forts and navy facilities. They included the country's most important torpedo production and testing facilities at Newport and the Northeast's largest naval air station at Quonset Point. Three special, top-secret German POW camps were based in Narragansett and Jamestown. Meanwhile, Rhode Island workers from all over the state - including, for the first time, many women - manufactured military equipment and built warships, most notably the Liberty ships at Providence Shipyard. Authors from the Rhode Island history blog smallstatebighistory.com trace Rhode Island's outsized wartime role, from the scare of an enemy air raid after Pearl Harbor to the war's final German U-boat sunk off Point Judith.

Also covered is the City's continuing struggle to expand its boundaries in scale with exploding population growth and hostile neighbors. Jack Stodghill grew up in Georgia, served in the Occupation Army in Germany following the Second World War, attended and graduated from the University of Georgia where in 1950 he earned a degree in landscape architecture. After 10 years working as a consultant in the field of urban planning, he came to Newport News Virginia in 1961 where he established the city's first city comprehensive planning program and served as the city's director of city planning for the next 14 years. During this period he earned a master's degree in administration from George Washington University. In 1975 he established a private practice as an urban planning and management consultant (known today as PMA Architecture) where he continued to perform professional planning and management services for the next 35 years. He was active in his professional organizations, the American Planning Association (APA), and the American Institute of Certified Planners (AICP). In 2013 he was elected to the prestigious College of Fellows of the Institute. He was active in establishing a Virginia Chapter of APA and served as its first President 1978-1980. Stodghill self-published a biographical work in 2012 under the style "Rubber Bands and City Plans: Scenes from the life and work of Jack Stodghill." He continues to live in Newport News, Virginia.

Book Synopsis An American Uprising in Second World War England by : Kate Werran
Download or read book An American Uprising in Second World War England written by Kate Werran and published by Pen and Sword History. This book was released on 2020-07-19 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The shocking story of a WWII shootout between black and white GIs in a quiet Cornish town that put the British-US “special relationship” on trial. On September 26, 1943, racial tensions between American soldiers stationed in Cornwall erupted in gunfire. Labelled a ‘wild west’ mutiny by the tabloids, it became front page news in Great Britain and the USA. For Americans, it bolstered a fast-accelerating civil rights movement, while in the UK, it exposed unsettling truths about Anglo-American relations. With new archival research, journalist Kate Werran pieces together the shocking drama that authorities tried to hush up. Her narrative examines everything from the controversy of American segregation on British soil to the shocking event itself and the resulting court martial. Extracted from wartime cabinet documents, secret government surveys, opinion polls, diaries, letters and newspapers as well as testimony from those who remember it, this story offers a rare window into a little-known dark side of the ‘American Invasion.’
