Creator
Krzeminski, Stephen C., Kollander, Patricia, Florida Atlantic University, Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters, Department of History
Abstract/Description
This research analyzes how American soldiers reacted to the Dachau concentration camp, and offers statistics that counter the arguments made by Holocaust deniers and revisionists. It compares how the Soviets, British, and Americans conducted themselves as they freed other prisoners, and discusses why every camp liberation was dissimilar. Evidence gathered from the liberators who executed the SS disproves the argument that they were premediated killers and emphasizes how unique Dachau’s...
Show moreThis research analyzes how American soldiers reacted to the Dachau concentration camp, and offers statistics that counter the arguments made by Holocaust deniers and revisionists. It compares how the Soviets, British, and Americans conducted themselves as they freed other prisoners, and discusses why every camp liberation was dissimilar. Evidence gathered from the liberators who executed the SS disproves the argument that they were premediated killers and emphasizes how unique Dachau’s conditions were on the day of liberation, when compared to other concentration camps. It also directly refutes many arguments made by Holocaust deniers, and addresses their erroneous narratives, statistics, and conclusions regarding the Dachau liberation, and the Holocaust in general.

Tolan Committee and the internment of Japanese Americans
Title
The Tolan Committee and the internment of Japanese Americans.
Creator
Saccento, Matthew., Harriet L. Wilkes Honors College
Abstract/Description
Within three months of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, President Franklin Roosevelt issued Executive Order 9066, which allowed military commanders to establish zones of military importance within which they could remove any person considered dangerous, specifically those of Japanese descent. The Tolan Committee, a House committee examining the logistics of the new wartime economy, was immediately sent to the West Coast in order to evaluate the merit of the President's policy.

Show moreWithin three months of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, President Franklin Roosevelt issued Executive Order 9066, which allowed military commanders to establish zones of military importance within which they could remove any person considered dangerous, specifically those of Japanese descent. The Tolan Committee, a House committee examining the logistics of the new wartime economy, was immediately sent to the West Coast in order to evaluate the merit of the President's policy. They were presented with the most complete set of arguments both supporting and opposing internment, and were therefore in a unique position to make a well-informed decision regarding the internment of over 100,000 persons. Despite the strength of the arguments of the opposition, the Committee abdicated their power and submitted to the will of the President and the military. In succumbing to fear, the Committee legitimized the policy of internment without making a truly objective decision.

Abstract/Description

Civilian Public Service was established in the course of World War II by the government and the historic peace churches to provide suitable alternative work for men conscientiously opposed to martial violence.

Show morePacifists have traditionally been treated harshly in the United States. Numerous conscientious objectors were imprisoned during the First World War. Civilian Public Service was established in the course of World War II by the government and the historic peace churches to provide suitable alternative work for men conscientiously opposed to martial violence. Encampments were created at sites all across the country for these persons under this program. Great resentment arose in some of the facilities against the federal authorities over several controversial issues. The American Friends Service Committee organized a hookworm eradication project near Orlando, Florida. This particular unit was unusual in many ways. It continued to function smoothly despite the widespread bitterness evident throughout the system. The men stationed at this camp made a determined effort to contribute something of value to the local community. Although strongly opposed by various citizens, these objectors gained enormous satisfaction from their endeavor.
