News & Notes
Report on 2005 WWTSA Annual
Business Meeting
The 2005 World War Two Studies
Association business meeting convened
at 12:25 p.m. on Friday, 25 February
2005, in the Middleton Room of the
Francis Marion Hotel in Charleston,
South Carolina. Association secretary
Mark Parillo called the assembly to
order and chaired the meeting.
The meeting began with reports from the
association officers. Parillo began by
noting that WWTSA Chair Donald S.
Detwiler was unable to attend but that he
had sent along a memorandum already
circulated among the association
directors and which Professor Detwiler
wished to have presented to the
association membership. Copies of the
memorandum were distributed to those
present, the full text of which reads as
follows.
"After fifteen years as secretary and
newsletter editor of the American
Committee on the History of the Second
World War, followed by fifteen years as
chairman of the World War Two Studies
Association (as our organization was
renamed at the end of 1991), I do not
wish to be renominated for an eleventh
three-year term, beginning in 2006, as an
officer of our association.
"I deeply appreciate the cooperation and
support that I have enjoyed since I was
first invited, in 1975, to accept
nomination as secretary and newsletter
editor by the chairman at that time, Prof.
Charles F. Delzell, and the secretary and
newsletter editor who served with him,
Prof. Arthur L. Funk (who was elected
chairman when I was entrusted with his
position). Fifteen years later, I was
nominated and elected to succeed him in
the chairmanship_ I understand from
Prof. Mark P. Parillo, the current
secretary and newsletter editor, that,
thanks to the support being provided for
military history and twentieth-century
studies at Kansas State University, he
would be able to accept nomination for
the chairmanship and to serve if elected.
"The end of my fifth three-year term as
chairman of our association coincides
with that of my third five-year term as an
officer of the International Committee
for the History of the Second World
War. During my first two terms, I
participated in the work of the
ICHSWW's executive committee that,
under the able leadership of Prof. David
Dilks of the British committee,
organized symposia with published
papers prepared for the quinquennial
ICHSWW meetings held in conjunction
with the international historical
congresses in 1995 in Montreal and five
years later in Oslo. As you know, the
president of the ICHSWW elected in
2000 has refused to convene the
executive committee and thereby
prevented members from fulfilling their
responsibilities under the statutes of the
ICHSWW. The consequent breakdown
in the cooperation and comity nurtured
within the ICHSWW since its
establishment in 1976 has led to the
suspension of annual contributions to the
4
- Spring 2005
International Committee by our
association as well as by its British,
Canadian, and Russian counterparts.
This does not mean that we have chosen
to tenninate our relationship with the
ICHSWW; we have deliberately
remained at least nominally affiliated, in
the hope that, sooner or later, the
International Committee may once more
serve the purpose for which it was
founded."
Reporting as association secretary and
treasurer, Parillo stated that the
organization membership remains
steady. He also indicated that no
progress had been made in the present
situation with the International
Committee for the History of the Second
World War but that, as the quinquennial
elections for international officers are
this year, there will most likely be
rapprochement with the renegade
international committee. Parillo then
discussed the association's finances. He
reported that, due in part to clerical and
operational overhead support from
Kansas State University'S Institute for
Military History & 20 th Century Studies,
the association is in better financial
shape than has been the case in a few
years. The association remains able to
cover the expenses of printing and
mailing newsletters from membership
dues. However, he reminded those in
attendance that reconciliation with the
ICHSWW might involve paying back
dues for the past four years. But even so,
the organization remains solvent, and the
furthennore the "Friends of the
WWTSA" fund is now over $1000
thanks to generous contributions from
many association members. The fund
serves as a welcome hedge against future
emergencies. Parillo concluded the
report by claiming the outlook for the
association's longtenn financial well­
being is good.
Speaking as the newsletter editor,
Parillo announced the welcome news
that the association was able to secure
assistance to replace Jim Ehnnan's
contributions. Mr. Ehnnan is working on
a temporary teaching contract that makes
it difficult for him to contribute his
bibliographic work as in past issues. He
mayor may not resume those activities
after the contract expires, so his future
contributions are uncertain. However, it
may be possible to obtain similar
assistance through means to be discussed
shortly.
The meeting chair then read a brief
list of announcements. These included a
fonnal statement of gratitude to the
association members \vho had
participated in the WWTSA-sponsored
panel titled, for "Is World War Two the
New Civil War? Perspectives on the
Place of World War Two Studies in the
Academy and Popular Culture." The
panel had presented their perspectives as
part of the program of the program of the
Society for l\filitary History annual
meeting. Allan R. Millett of The Ohio
State Cni\"ersity, Charles Sanders and
.\fark Parillo of Kansas State University,
Jfark Swier of the University of
Yermom, Janet Valentine of the U.S.
Army Center for .\filitary History had
led a well-attended discussion of the
topic which had just been completed
prior to the meeting. There were also
calls for scholarly paper and session

announcement of his intention not to
sIand for renomination for a sixth term
as association chairman, Parillo opened a
discussion of possible alternatives by
noting that, given the mission and goals
of his department and military history
institute at Kansas State University, he
was considering offering what amounted
to editorial internships to interested and
promising graduate students, such as Ms.
Christina Fishback, who had compiled
the well-selected and carefully proofread
bibliographical listings in the Fall 2004
newsletter. Parillo continued by noting
that ifthere were someone willing to put
himself forward as a candidate for the
secretary or newsletter editor positions,
that would be another alternative worth
discussing. Parillo then threw the floor
open to further discussion and
suggestions.
The discussion that ensued produced no
other concrete suggestions or proposals
for individuals who might be nominated
for the various association offices, but
there was a general call for
reconsideration of the association's
administrative structure to streamline the
policYmaking process. In particular,
several members expressed the desire to
have the recent estrangement with the
ICHSWW officers resolved with
vigorous steps in the coming year. There
was no agreement on a suggested course
of action to that end. There was,
however, a motion from the floor to
encourage the association officers to
form a group to study the organization's
administrative structure and make
recommendations for changes that would
be helpful in enabling the World War
Two Studies Association to carry out its
original mandate. The motion was
seconded and discussed. Those present
ultimately voted to authorize the
5
association secretary to organize a long­
range study group for the purpose of
examining the ways in which the
association might evolve to fulfill its
stated purposes in the changing
environment of the present day. Parillo
accepted the charge and nominations for
membership in the study group.
The meeting adjourned with the next
annual meeting set for May 2006, to be
held in conjunction with the Society for
Military History annual meeting at
Kansas State University in Manhattan,
Kansas.
Postcript to the- Meeting Report
Following the business meeting,
WWTSA secretary received agreements
to serve on the long-range study group
from Calvin Christman, Reina
Pennington, Allan R. Millett, Anne
Wells, and Conrad Crane. Crane agreed
to serve as chair of the group. The
association chairman, Prof. Detwiler,
subsequently concurred, without
reservations, in the formation of the
committee and its mandate. The group is
planning on presenting the results of its
deliberations at a forthcoming meeting.
Martin Blumenson
The association notes with great sadness
the passing of Martin Blumenson,
distinguished historian and longtime
member of the World War Two Studies
Association board of directors.
Martin Blumenson was a 1939 graduate
of Bucknell University and held master's
degrees from Bucknell and Harvard.
During World War II, he worked in the
!'
6
- Spring 2005
War Office's historical branch and
followed the U.S. Third Anny and
Seventh Anny in Europe. He taught at
Bucknell, Hofstra College, the Merchant
Marine Academy, the Naval and Anny
War Colleges, and George Washington
University at various stages in his career.
He was also a civilian historian at the
Pentagon for ten years. He published
nineteen books, mostly on George Patton
and the European and Mediterranean
theaters in World War II. His two­
volume Patton: The Man Behind the
Legend, 1885-1945, published on the
centennial of Patton's birth, was perhaps
his most critically acclaimed work. He
published his last book, Heroes Never
Die, at the age of 82.
Martin Blumenson died at the age of 86
on April 15 of this year after a short
illness.
Alan F. Wilt
The association notes with equal sadness
the loss of Alan Wilt, who succumbed
on May 7 after a brief illness. Dr. Wilt
was Professor Emeritus of History at
Iowa State University, where he taught
from 1967 to 1999.
Professor Wilt earned his bachelor's
degree from DePauw University and
completed his graduate studies at the
University of Michigan. He was a
visiting faculty member at the Air War
College and at Glasgow University.
Among the honors he received for his
teaching was the Iowa Regents' Faculty
Excellence Award. He had a lifetime of
professional service to his credit,
including membership on the WWTSA
board of directors.
Alan Wilt authored fi\"e books and
numerous book chapters, essays, and
articles. His scholarship focussed on
military strategy and planning in the
World War II era, and he was writing an
in-depth study of the Combined Chiefs
of Staff at the time of his death.
Professor Wilt was 67.
Memorial for Sir \Villiam Deakin,
DSO,MA
Delivered by Professor David Dilks at
St. Antony's College, Oxford, April 23,
2005. Presented lvith the kind
permission ofProfessor Dilks.
'A man of great spirit and courage'.
Those were the terms in which Keith
Feiling wrote from Christ Church to
recommend F.W. Deakin to Winston
Churchill 70 years ago. All those
present today, and a far greater number
beyond these shores, will recognise the
acuity of a devoted tutor's judgment.
Bill fitted from the start at Chartwell.
Soon we find Churchill writing '1 like
Mr. Deakin very much' and a little later
'Deakin has been here four days and has
helped me a lot. He shows more quality
and serviceableness than any of the
others. '
Hitherto, Churchill had sought danger
and political excitements and had then
written about his experience; placing it
in the context of larger themes, to be
sure, but with his own figure prominent
in the foreground. Hence a delicious
remark of the former Prime Minister
Arthur Balfour, when yet a further
volume of The World Crisis appeared, 'I
am immersed in Winston's brilliant
Spring 2005 ­
_-\utobiography, disguised as a history of
the Cniverse.'
The life of the Duke of Marlborough,
by contrast, represented an enterprise
different in its nature and it was for this
that Mr. Deakin had been recruited. The
events of more than two centuries earlier
must be re-created in the imagination
and reconstructed; vast archives, at The
Hague and Vienna no less than
Blenheim, must be trawled. Churchill
\vas bent upon the rescue of his great
ancestor's reputation from the ravages
inflicted upon it by Macaulay. For his
literary assistant, an academic historian
accustomed to appraise sceptically, this
situation held an immanent conflict. But
as Bill once put the point, soon after
ChurchiH's death, he had 'surrendered
without terms long ago to the magic of
the man.' To be close to Churchill was a
privilege for which it was worth paying;
the price, which Bill observed for the
rest of his life, was one of strict loyalty
and discretion, the dividend beyond
calculation. Possessing the
accomplishments of a scholar, he soon
acquired something still rarer; for in the
study at Chartwell, starting late at night
and not ending until 3 or 4 in the
morning - after which he would drive
across country to Oxford and teach at
Wadham from 9 - Bill learned 'vastly
more of the sense of history than my
formal education as a student, and later
as a teacher, ever taught me.' The point
was no doubt apparent to his academic
colleagues from an early date; we must
doubt whether it brought them much joy.
In such research and discussion at
Chartwell Deakin saw, and helped
Churchill to appreciate, the conduct of
coalition warfare in the hands of a
master. Soon both of them were to
7
witness the process in its modern guise.
Churchill discovered that the Duke had
possessed immense patience, without
which allies could not be coaxed along
and great designs executed. Insofar as
his tempestuous nature allowed,
Churchill had absorbed the lesson.
One day early in 1939, Bill said to Mr.
Churchill (for in those formal days, they
invariably addressed each other as 'Mr.
Churchill' and 'Mr. Deakin'), 'You
know I have never asked you for
anything on my own behalf, but now 1
want to make a request. I'm anxious to
join the Territorials. Would you write
me a letter of recommendation to the
Oxfordshire Hussars? After all,' he
added brightly, 'I'm only asking for a
chance get killed. '
When it was decided that Captain
Deakin should be parachuted into
Yugoslavia to discover the whereabouts
and activities - indeed, the identity - of
Tito, he can scarcely have expected to
return. He wrote to Churchill from Cairo
in May 1943 on the eve of his departure,
'1 am glad to go and hope to be able to
establish a useful liaison and in any case
send back information of value.' With
what we must think a conscious echo of
Captain Oates, and with a nice display of
English understatement, he added, 'It
will be some time before I can extricate
myself from the Balkans again ... '
And then, moving from the plane of
public business to that of the special
relationship which had grown up
between the two of them:
'I need not tell you now how much I
have appreciated all your kindness and
generosity. You may not realize how
8
- Spring 2005
much the many personal touches have
been valued ... '
Evelyn Waugh, who saw something of
Bill in Yugoslavia, believed him 'a very
loveable and complicated man', a 'very
clever, heroic man'. We have no need to
quarrel with those words. We may
notice in passing that after their first
meeting, Waugh described Bill's 'Hindu
legs, ascetic face'; which I mention
because this provides the sole recorded
instance in which anyone ever applied
the word 'ascetic' to him.
It is sometimes thought that Churchill
wrote about the second world war only
when it was clear that he could make
advantageous financial arrangements. In
reality, he was resolved that if health
lasted he would follow the habit of a
lifetime; having lived in the eye of the
stonn for six years, he would do what he
was uniquely qualified to do, speak for
himself. Thus Mr. Deakin who insisted
on leaving the Embassy at Belgrade to
return to his Fellowship at Wadham had
scarcely reached London in March 1946
before he found himself intercepted by
Churchill and asked to deal with all the
political and diplomatic side of the
memOIrs.
By his mastery of languages, wide
intellectual interests, coiled energy,
cordial relations with colleagues in
Whitehall, orderliness in dealing with
many millions of words, harmony with
Churchill, Bill made the enterprise
possible. Thus a volume a year for six
years; and in the later stages, that had to
be combined with the Wardenship. How
he managed remains a mystery. When
the last volume of The Second World
War was finished, work resumed upon A
History of the English-Speaking
Peoples. A few weeks after his
retirement as Prime Minister in 1955,
Churchill writes to his wife 'In a quarter
of an hour I expect Bill Deakin. I must
bring him along if I can.' This meant
that he must seek renewed help with the
book and there was never any doubt of
his capacity to do that. Although the
Warden had a thousand duties here and
elsewhere, it did not lie in his nature to
refuse anything that Churchill asked. To
the end, he and Pussy remained amongst
the closest friends of the Churchills.
When Sir Winston dined for the last time
51
wi th the Other Club in his 91 year, he
asked the Warden of St. Antony's to
accompany him. I once heard Bill admit
- though only under the most direct
questioning - what he would never have
said unsolicited, that he was proud of
that fact.
An integral part of Churchill's purpose
in writing The Second World War had
been to make clear the scale and nature
of the British and Commonwealth effort.
In his different style, Bill determined
that justice should be done in a quiet,
scholarly but effective way to that heroic
enterprise. The process began under the
direct impetus of the \V arden, who
convened at St. Antony' 5 in 1962 a
pioneering conference which discussed
Britain and European Resi~ance during
the \var. This developed later into the
British );ational Committee for the
History ofrhe Second World War, over
which Bill presided for some 35 years.
His genius for friendship and respect for
the cuJrnre. CIvilization and languages of
other countries - which did not in the
least mean thaI he \Ya5 unappreciative of
his O'i\iluni'-ersal respect for his
talents 25 ms-..o:ian and record as man of

Spring 2005 ­
r
e
o
e
dle History of the Second World War, of
which he was the long-serving Vice­
President. He presented numerous
.ea.rneri papers and presided over many a
~onference. He understood, both by
instinct and from knowledge, the
delicate and sometimes dangerous
position of colleagues behind the Iron
Curtain, and through the two
Conunittees sustained with them friendly
contacts at a time when such were not
easily established.
Bill ahvays 'saw the skull beneath the
skin', sensed subtleties and layers of
meaning hidden from others. In these
last years, it was hardly possible to be
with him without recalling Churchill's
valediction of Balfour:
'As I observed him regarding with calm,
firm and cheerful gaze the approach of
Death, I felt how foolish the Stoics were
to make such a fuss about an event so
natural and so indispensable to mankind.
But I felt also the tragedy which robs the
world of all the wisdom and treasure
gathered in a great man's life and
experience and hands the lamp to some
impetuous and untutored stripling or lets
it fall shivered into fragments upon the
ground.'
Bill's modesty, carried to the point of a
fault; his charming habit of treating the
young on level terms; his wholly
unfeigned interest in others and anxiety
to help them; the natural dignity which
enabled him to disdain the frailties of old
age - all provide an example to be
treasured until our own time is come.
The courage and spirit which Professor
Feiling discerned 70 years ago remained
undimmed. When Bill arrived at the
convalescent hospital at Le Beausset
shortly before Christmas, after a major
9
operation which he had been thought
unlikely to survive, he was asked 'Is
there anything we can do for you,
Monsieur Deakin?' 'Certainly' he
replied. 'Champagne for everyone.'
Churchill once remarked mischievously
of a Prime Minister who left office early,
'For myself, I always believed in staying
in the pub until closing time.' In this
College we knew that the last man to
leave any good party would always be
the Warden. His interests were legion,
his friends to be found the world over.
His hospitality, not least of the mind,
was boundless and his company an
enduring delight:
'They told me, Heraclitus, they told me
you were dead;
They brought me bitter news to hear, and
bitter tears to shed;
I wept as I remembered how often you
and I
Had tired the sun with talking, and sent
him down the sky.'
Major Release of NARA Military
History Records
This notice is courtesy ojR. Bruce
Craig's NCH Washington Update (Vol.
11, #26; 9 June 2005).
On 11 June 2005, the National Archives
and Records Administration (NARA)
National Personnel Records Center in
Overland, Missouri will unseal the first
release of what is expected to be a "a
mother load" collection of interest to
military historians, biographers, and
genealogists. The center houses the
military records of some 56 million
10 - Spring 2005
individuals, beginning in the 19th
century and extending into the 20th.
A total of three batches of individual
records are slotted to be released: Navy
enlisted men from 1885 until 8
September 1939; Marine Corps enlisted
men from 1906 until 1939; and the first
150 of about 3,000 Americans identified
as "persons of exceptional prominence."
Included in the last category are the
military records of generals George S.
Patton Jr. and Omar Bradley; African
American sports hero Lt. Jackie
Robinson; President John F. Kennedy;
author Herman Wouk; actors Clark
Gable, Audie Murphy, and Steve
McQueen; and, yes, entertainer Pfc.
Elvis Presley.
Until recently, NARA was merely the
physical custodian of these records that
were open only to the veteran, the next
of kin, or the individual's service
branch. In 1999, however, the Pentagon
and NARA reached an agreement that
would begin the process of
systematically opening these records.
According to Bill Seibert, chief of the
archival operations branch of the records
center, the records now "cease to belong
to the military and instead belong to the
American people...They're public
documents."
After lengthy discussion with Pentagon
officials over several years, NARA was
able to negotiate an agreement that
provided for all such military records to
remain sealed 62 years past the date an
individual left active service. That
means that most World War II records,
for example, will remain closed for
several more years. In addition, because
of a fire at the records center back in
1973, some files of Anny and Air Force
veterans will be withheld even longer ­
until 2023. Coast Guard records will
probably not be available until 2026, and
because some individual files contain
fragile or crumbling paper, such files
will probably be kept on hold for some
time.
Persons interested in accessing the
collection should contact the National
Personnel Records Center, 9700 Page
Avenue, Overland, Mo. 63132; phone:
314-801-0850.

CREST (CIA REcords Search Tool) is the name of the CIA database of declassified
intelligence documents. The CREST system contains records released electronically by
th Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency
(~G--\., known until November 2003 as NIMA, the National Imagery and Mapping
_-\~enLY) under their 25-year review programs.
CREST contains the CIA and NGA records that have been declassified wholly or in part
under the systematic and automatic declassification review programs mandated by a
series of executive orders in the past decade. The records are released into CREST once
aImually and now total 8.5 million pages. At least another 50 million pages await release
under the 25-year declassification rule. The date range of these records is from World
\\T ar II into the 1980s, but most are from 1947-72.
The records in CREST are subdivided into six collections. The Consolidated Translations
collection contains traIlslated reports of foreign-language technical articles of intelligence
value. Each document covers a single subject. The General CIA Records collection has
records that are 25 years old or older. They include a variety of finished intelligence
reports, field information reports, high-level CIA policy papers and memoranda, along
with other documents produced by the CIA. The Growld Photo Caption Cards collection
has cards used to identify NGA ground photographs. The master negatives of the
photographs have been accessioned separately to the National Archives. The cards should
be used to identify negatives that researchers want to request. The NGA Records
collection has NGA records that are at least 25 years old, and are mostly photographic
intelligence reports. The Scientific Abstracts collection has abstracts of foreign scientific
and technical journal articles, with a special emphasis on Soviet and Warsaw Pact
nations' scientific research. The STAR GATE collection includes the records of a 25­
year Intelligence Community project to use remote viewers with claimed clairvoyant or
telepathic abilities to study targets blocked from ordinary surveillance methods.
The nature of the materials in CREST varies considerably, but includes large numbers of
administrative records, intelligence reports from the CIA and other agencies, National
Photographic Interpretation Center reports, aIld a wide range of memos and
correspondence from selected offices. There are large numbers of documents from the
Intelligence Advisory Committee (1947-1958) and its successor agency, including
organizational records, agendae, minutes, and other records. What researchers will not
12 - Spring 2005
find in CREST are CIA Directorate of Plans/Operations records, budget or personnel
numbers, official histories, biography or name files beyond a few released under the Nazi
War Crimes Disclosure Act, and signals and photographic intelligence.
The CIA has provided four computers with printers and paper for CREST users. CREST
has the virtue of being very easy to use, with many search options, including by keyword.
It contains the largest release of documents in CIA history, many in areas where
heretofore there have been few or no releases.
The CREST database is available to researchers in Room 3000 of the U.S. National
Archives and Records Administration building (Archives H) located at 8601 Adelphi
Road, College Park, MD 20740-6001 (tel.: 1-86-NARA-NARA or 1-866-272-6272 ).
