Title A name given to the resource AMMM Medal Collection, Second World War Description An account of the resource <p><span>The American Merchant Marine Museum has a small collection of Second World War decorations and medals in its holdings. The core of this group is a shadow box display that once most probably lived in Bowditch Hall alongside the Merchant Marine Academy's collection of Gallant Ship plaques or aboard the <em>Emery Rice</em> when the training ship served as the United States Merchant Marine Academy's museum.</span></p> <p></p> <p><span>The shadow box contains the breadth of decorations granted by the United States federal government to American Merchant Mariners during the Second World War. The medals and ribbons comprise of the complete set of personal and group decorations available to merchant seamen by 1946; noticeably lacking are decorations issued by the Philippine Republic. Where appropriate, an award card and ribbon bar accompany each medal, with the noted absence of the Merchant Marine Victory Medal award card. Despite the Museum's inventory date of 2012, all items point to mounting in the late-1940s - the ribbons have aluminum backings, and the medals' suspension rings and drape-stitching are consistent with 1940s-issued examples. Of note is the Mariner's Medal - medal's reverse is displayed - showing the "Torch of Liberty" instead of the obverse with the "walking eagle."</span></p> <p></p> <p><span>In terms of conservation, the case itself and the artifacts it houses are in poor condition - perhaps an apt metaphor for the memory of the wartime Merchant Marine. The award cards are foxed and faded due to exposure to humidity and sunlight, and the medals exhibit flaking of plating. Red bronze and gold leaf do not take kindly to moisture, and the ribbons' aluminum backing shows signs of oxidation. This deterioration is most probably due to the fact the Museum's predecessor was a ship - salt air is never kind to medals - or the case was improperly displayed or stored for some time. These days, the Museum has sound environmental controls - if the caked dust is wiped away, these old memories will shine.</span></p> <p><span>The other medals and decorations in this collection may be found interspersed throughout the Museum.

Unknown, perhaps early 2000s. ex-David Linwood Geyer, USMMA '44. Obituary claims 1944, old Alumni Association newsletter states 1943, present 1944; not present in 1944 Midships.<br /><br />After Mr. Geyer graduated from USMMA, he went to work for United States Lines followed by Wm. Chelsea, Ltd. At the latter he designed neckties, gentlemen's scarves, and blazer badges; the company itself was a supplier of these items to private schools, colleges and universities, and clubs. These badges may have been of his design.<br /><br />These blazer badges may very well be one-offs and perhaps offered to alumni of the United States Merchant Marine Academy. Although the central device is that of the old United States Maritime Service cap badge, the crest is originally that of the United States Merchant Marine Cadet Corps - later the United States Merchant Marine Academy (and USMS).  The motto, "Acta Non Verba" (Latin: "Deeda not Words") is that of the Academy.<br /><br />One of the badges shows evidence that prong-attachments pierced the back. The threads are natural and synthetic along with gold bullion and silver-plated French wire.

For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Title A name given to the resource Mementos of Captain Elmer J. Stull Subject The topic of the resource Stull, Elmer J. War Trophies Description An account of the resource These artifacts came from the estate of Captain Elmer J. Stull. He saved precious little from the Second World War - but what he did save are representative of the trials he endured as a wartime ship's master. The federal government recognized both his and his ship’s crew’s heroism by the award of the Merchant Marine Distinguished Service Medal and the Gallant Ship Citation bar, respectively. This recognition was from his time on the SS Samuel Parker. The ship was laid down and launched at Oregon Shipbuilding Corporation in Portland on 14 October 1942 and 7 November 1942, respectively; Captain Stull was the first master of SS Samuel Parker from 3 November 1942 until 8 December 1943. Among the artifacts presented in this collection are mementos of the attacks on Tunisia Captain Stull collected while the SS Samuel Parker was anchored off Tunisia. He tied a description of each with a length of jute rope on a Maritime Ships Material Tag. These tags are of interest as they positively identify the ship - SS Samuel Parker - which was Maritime Commission Hull Number 593. Another particularly significant item is the device he used to find his way through treacherous seas: a universal bearing finder. This tool helped guide him on his voyages around the world - it is preserved in a specially-constructed wood box with his stamp. Also included among the collection are a merchant seaman identification pin, a union badge, and a Congressional Lifesaving medal in silver. Physical Object An inanimate, three-dimensional object or substance.

Badge, Cap Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections. For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Title A name given to the resource Cap Badge and Chin Strap Buttons, Engineer Description An account of the resource Ca. 1930s-pre-1942. Cap badge worn by an A.B. or Engineer officer pre-war. It comprised of a wool badge sewn directly onto a mohair band. The band was removed from a cap which was unable to be conserved due to mold damage.<br /><br />The cap badge stitching is coming apart; the cheesecloth backing is evident and does not fluoresce when a black light is applied - its construction is consistent from pre-war cap badges. Unlike British badges of the period which coil bullion wire around a copper thread, this badge is bullion over yellow floss. The plating has flaked off revealing tarnished silver.<br /><br />The metal grommets for the chin strap buttons (cap screws) was a design feature found on higher-end cap bands.  During the war, most cap bands used a thread-reinforced slit for the cap screws.<br /><br />Of note are the buttons - there are cuff-button style and secured the chin strap by means of wire. The chin strap - since discarded - was made of leather.  The buttons do not have a manufacturer hallmark, and the eagle is facing to its left.  This design was used prior to May 1942. One of the buttons has a high degree of corrosion as would be expected for a base-metal construction as found on pre-war uniforms. http://dittybag.ianewatts.org/collection/files/original/7/148/1940s-uk_merchantnavy-cpo1.JPG 82edebf97a8ed5a31bded51e29ad6a89 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Cap Badge, "Mail Cadet," Engineering Description An account of the resource <p>ca. 1930s. If a ship were under contact to carry "mails" for the United States Government, the vessel was required to carry two cadets: one in the Deck Department, and another in the Engineering Department. Due to the connection with mail, the cadets came to be called "Mail Cadets."<br /><br />This cap badge was worn by such a cadet. I am unsure if Deck and Engineering cadets wore different cap badges.  A lapel medallion or dog from the 1940s is shown for comparative purposes.</p> <p>I have the orientation of the badge with one blade pointing upward.  A photograph of a mail cadet shows two pointing upward; however, lapel medallions from the 1940s only have one blade pointing upward.</p> USMMA http://dittybag.ianewatts.org/collection/files/original/7/124/aeissco-1.JPG b732db4f253756ae4c5509b99c5ccb06 http://dittybag.ianewatts.org/collection/files/original/7/124/aeissco-2.JPG f0d5a3fefd4a9848966a8fd60c140be3 http://dittybag.ianewatts.org/collection/files/original/7/124/aeissco-3.JPG 80caff0bfbd5535e75021f1472bda996 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

[...] In 1967 Mr. Isbrandtsen formed American Export Industries</span><span>, a holding company to manage American Export-Isbrandtsen Lines and all support for his fleet operations, including container services, port operations, and fleet logistics. In 1971, American Export Industries spun off its holdings and returned to being the American Export-Isbrandtsen Lines. This merger ended in 1973."<br /><br />The cap badge remained in force through the 1960s.</span></p> http://dittybag.ianewatts.org/collection/files/original/7/277/1930s-american-line-officer-1-1.jpg 00806712a385424a1e269ade6dc0a1ca http://dittybag.ianewatts.org/collection/files/original/7/277/1930s-american-line-officer-1-2.jpg a20ff80dfd039cc017e4732579f86dfa Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
