      The Battle of Biak was part of the Western New Guinea campaign of World War II, fought between the United States Army and the Japanese Army from 27 May to 17 August 1944. Taking place on the island of Biak, in Geelvink Bay, in present-day Indonesia, it was part of General Douglas MacArthur's South West Pacific Area's offensive drive to clear New Guinea in preparation for an invasion of the Philippines. It was the first major effort by the Japanese to allow uncontested landings for the purpose of creating a kill zone inland. The main Allied objective was to capture the island so that they could construct airfields there. The battle resulted in the capture of the island by Allied forces, which were then used to support operations elsewhere in the Pacific.

      The island of Biak forms part of the Schouten Islands, and dominates the entrance to Geelvink Bay, near the western end of New Guinea; its terrain and location about 325 miles (523 km) from Hollandia and 180 miles (290 km) from Sarmi (where the Japanese had begun concentrating supply bases and airfields), made it well suited to airfield construction, particularly in the flatter southeastern area. As a result, as the Allies began their advance towards the Philippines in 1944, General Douglas MacArthur's Southwest Pacific command began planning its capture. In conceptualizing the operation, Allied planners envisaged a week-long operation; estimating that there were up to 2,000 Japanese troops defending the area. Four landing beaches were chosen near Bosnek, designated Green 1, 2, 3 and 4. Allied planners considered these beaches to be poorer for landing operations, compared to those further away from the airfields, but they were chosen due to their proximity to the main Allied objectives and because aerial reconnaissance indicated that the beaches were not backed by cliffs or swamps, and that there were two jetties nearby that might facilitate deep-water port access.

      Ops Center Episode 14: Pacific War - Surface Naval Actions

      The Ops Center returns, picking up after our Iwo Jima special presentation to complete a series on the Pacific War. In this episode, we take a look at wargaming Pacific naval battles that were fought between surface ships, i.e., destroyers, cruisers and battleships.

      Yes, operational naval warfare in the Pacific was dominated by the aircraft carrier, but when the sun went down and aircraft couldn't really strike small tactical targets ... it was time to sound general quarters, present broadside, and open fire the old fashioned way.

      We take a look at what kind of warships we're covering, review some of the more interesting surface actions in the Pacific War, review the tactical conditions that allowed surface gunnery duels to take place (and how to ensure these are present on your wargaming table), and review a few wargaming systems that are available today for players to try these battles on your own.

      Hope you enjoy!

      Cryptologic Command Display 3 of 5

      U.S. Naval Cryptologic Veterans Association

      The Cryptologic Technician Rating
      Today’s Cryptologic Technician can trace his roots back to those enterprising Radiomen who taught themselves the Japanese Katakana code in the early to mid 1920s and established the first intercept station at Shanghai, China.

      What is a “Rating”?
      A Navy rating is defined as an occupation that consists of specific skills and abilities. Each rating has its own specialty badge which is worn on the left sleeve by all qualified men and women in that field. In the Navy and Coast Guard, pay grades E-4 through E-9 fall within a rating and reflect a distinct level of achievement within the promotion pyramid. There are:

      General ratings
      Service ratings
      Emergency ratings

      During the summer of 1927, five Marines attended Katakana training in Shanghai. In September 1927, they were transferred to Peiping where, under the leadership of Chief Radioman (CRM) Dorman A. Chauncey, they established the second radio intercept station.

      The Birth of Cryptologic Direct Support
      The Marine detachment in Peiping performed the first known temporary deployment of Communications Intelligence personnel. Two Marine operators, along with Chief Chauncey, deployed aboard USS TRENTON (CL-11)1, and two additional Marine operators were deployed aboard USS MEMPHIS (CL-13) for the entire month of September 1928. Presumably this mission was to copy traffic from Japanese fleet exercises.

      Early Formal Organization & Training
      The success of these early intercept operations led to the establishment of a permanent school on the roof of the Main Navy building on Constitution Avenue in Washington D.C. where especially qualified Radiomen were trained to intercept and analyze foreign radio communications. During the 12 year life of this school at least 176 (150 Navy and 26 Marine), enlisted radio operators received their training. The group became know as the On the Roof Gang (OTRG). Many of these graduates formed the nucleus of the communications intelligence operations in the Pacific at the beginning of World War II.

      The early ratings involved in communications intelligence were what we now identify as “General Service” ratings. Prior to World War II, the majority of these ratings were Radioman and Yeoman. The need for qualified communications intelligence personnel greatly expanded during World War II and by 1943 the following ratings were part of the complement of the activities under the cognizance of OP-20-G:

      Yeoman
      Radioman
      Specialist I (Punched Card Accounting Machine Operator)
      Specialist P (Photographic Specialist)
      Photographers Mate
      Machinist Mate
      Electricians Mate
      Telegrapher (for teletype)

      Not All CTCs Are Cryptologists
      On various Museum Ships, there may be references to C-TCs. For example, C-TCs are included in the Casualty List of the USS ARIZONA (BB-63) Memorial. This designation refers to “Chief-Turret Captain (C-TC).” The Turret Captain (TC) rate was terminated when Battleships and Cruisers that had turrets were decommissioned and all the gunship Aircraft Carriers had their turrets removed. The Turret Captain’s duties were to maintain, instruct, and take charge of the gun turret assigned. They were assigned to Aircraft Carriers, Battleships and Cruisers. Each turret was assigned a Chief-Turret Captain, First Class-Turret Captain, or both.

      “Right at the Ringside”: Life Magazine’s War Art Program, 1941-1945

      Melissa Renn (Harvard Business School)
      Life magazine not only sent photographers to capture World War II on film, but also commissioned artists to record in paint all aspects of the war. Modeled in part on 19th-century magazines and illustrated newspapers that hired artists to paint and draw life on both the battlefields and home fronts, as well as on 20th-century British precedents, Life’s war art program was its largest patronage project. Life viewed these wartime paintings as essential supplements to its black-and-white photographic reporting. Drawn from new archival research, my talk explores the motivations behind Life’s wartime commissions, and focuses on Life’s coverage of the war in Britain, from the Blitz to V-E Day.
      This paper was presented at the conference, "In the Same Boat”: British and American Visual Culture During the Second World War, in the History of Art department at Yale University, May 8-9, 2015.

      Interview with John E. Pease, WWII veteran. CCSU Veterans History Project

      Interview conducted by Eileen Hurst. Pease enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps in December of 1943. He left for basic training on Parris Island on January 19, 1944. After completion of basic training, Pease was sent to Camp Lejeune (NC) for additional training and unit assignment. His unit shipped to American Samoa on a former luxury liner. On American Samoa, he learned how to use the 30 caliber Browning machine gun, and he and a squad of eight others kept guard on the island. After five months on American Samoa, his unit was shipped to Wellington, New Zealand to pick up additional troops. Pease's unit spent 57 days aboard the ship awaiting the troop's arrival. From there they sailed to the Tarawa Atoll, where the "Battle of Tarawa" had just begun. Pease describes the battle in detail, and what the typical marine survived during the battle with the Japanese. From Tarawa he was sent to a naval hospital in Hawaii because he contracted Filariasis, a disease that is passed to humans from mosquitoes. Due to this disease Pease was not sent back to the Pacific theater after his hospitalization. Instead he was sent to a naval shipyard in Birmington, WA, where he worked as a guard for the rest of his service time. He was discharged in February of 1946 and returned home to Connecticut. He worked for a time at Hamilton Standard Propeller and attended college at night. He then began work for the Resolute Insurance Company in Hartford, CT, where he stayed for 35 years, eventually becoming the Vice-President of the Life insurance division. Pease joined the American Legion and the VFW. At the end of the interview Pease shows a collection of items that he brought back from the war.
