18002841800. Graphite and grayish ink wash on bluish wove paper 7 x 10 1/2 inches 177 x 265 mm matrix. Scattered surface soiling adhesive residue dog-eared corners and scattered edge tears along left margin outside of image area.

One image depicts a scene of a group of soldiers representing the Holy Roman Empire causing a ruckus in a tavern named for King Richard the Lionhearted. Soldiers in what appears to be 18th century uniform bicker one drawing his sword in defense a lady appearing at his side the other standing at the foot of an empty throne.

Index. RARE Surviving Copy. The NOTE on the first page unpaginated states: This publication is a temporary expedient pending the incorporation of the information contained herein in an approved War Department Manual. Front cover erroneously is for Volume I and there is an ink correction identifying this as Volume II. Cover and some pages are worn and soiled. This was prepared under the direction of the Commandant The Ordnance School. The contents of Chapter 2. Job Analysis and Course Planning includes sections: Introduction; Divisions and Operations of the trade; Equipment materials and mathematics; Job information; Arranging material in an instructional order; The job or project as the vehicle of instruction; and The need for course organization. The Ordnance Specialist School for enlisted personnel was transferred from Raritan Arsenal N.J to the Aberdeen Proving Ground in 1931. Aberdeen Proving Ground was established in 1917 as an answer to an immediate need for national defense. The United States Army was not fully prepared to meet its new obligations as a consequence of America's declaration of war on the Central Powers in April 1917. One of the urgent issues was to obtain facilities for testing war munitions. Due to its proximity to New York’s populated suburbs and busy harbor the then-Sandy Hook Proving Ground at Fort Hancock N.J. was unable to expand to test all incoming war materiel. As demands for munitions to fight the war in Europe increased the Ordnance Department's need to obtain test facilities for munitions and equipment became urgent. Secretary of War Newton D. Baker commissioned Sandy Hook’s commanding officer Col. Colden L. Ruggles to find a new site for the Army's ordnance testing. The qualifications for the new site were specific. It had to be near the nation's industrial and manufacturing centers yet far enough away from population centers so year-round testing would cause neither community disturbance nor public hazard. <br /> Ruggles' search took him to the Chesapeake Bay area. Influenced by Maj. Edward V. Stockham who lived in Perryman Ruggles reviewed an area along the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay near the city of Aberdeen. The government took formal possession of the land at Aberdeen on Oct. 20 1917 and immediately began building testing facilities. The new proving ground at Aberdeen would be used for proof-testing field artillery weapons ammunition trench mortars air defense guns and railway artillery. The mission was later expanded to include operation of an Ordnance training school and developmental testing of small arms. On Jan. 2 1918 during a blinding snowstorm Edward V. Stockham fired the first gun at Aberdeen Proving Ground. Despite the snow within two hours the regular work of ammunition acceptance testing was underway.

L'Esprit: A collection of 10 year books for Spingarn High School Washington DC for 1954 1955 1956 1957 1958 1959 1962 1963 1967 1968. Spingarn High School in Washington DC was founded in 1952 during a tumultuous time in American racial history. Spingarn was established to relieve the cripplingly overcrowded DC colored high schools whose populations boomed during the post war years. The school was included in the momentous Brown v. Board of Education decision 1954 which radically changed the Jim-Crow era segregated DC public school landscape. After the ruling de facto segregation and white flight to the suburbs kept the school racially black. This collection came from the personal library of Mrs. Leona G. Huguley a Biology teacher at Springarn and Howard graduate. One of the volumes has inscriptions from a former student. The books display images of young faces full of hope and promise.
