Henry III (September 19, 1551 – August 2, 1589; born Alexandre Édouard de France, Polish: Henryk Walezy, Lithuanian: Henrikas Valua) was a monarch of the House of Valois who was elected the monarch of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth from 1573 to 1575 and ruled as King of France from 1574 until his death. He was the last French monarch of the Valois dynasty.
As the fourth son of King Henry II of France and Catherine de' Medici, Henry was not expected to assume the throne of France. He was thus a good candidate for the vacant Polish-Lithuanian throne, and he was elected with the dual titles King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania.
Henry's rule over Poland and Lithuania was brief, but notable. The Henrician Articles he signed into law accepting the Polish throne established Poland as an elective monarchy subject to free election by the Polish nobility. Of his three older brothers, two would live long enough to ascend the French throne, but both died young and without a legitimate male heir. He abandoned Poland upon receiving word that he had inherited the throne of France at the age of 22.
The kingdom of France was at the time plagued by the Wars of Religion, and Henry's authority was undermined by violent political parties funded by foreign powers: the Catholic League (supported by Spain), the Protestant Huguenots (supported by England) and the Malcontents, led by Henry's own brother, the Duke of Alençon, which was a party of Catholic and Protestant aristocrats who jointly opposed the absolutist ambitions of the king. Henry III was himself a politique, arguing that a strong and religiously tolerant monarchy would save France from collapse.
After the death of Henry's younger brother Francis, Duke of Anjou, and when it became apparent that Henry would not produce an heir, the Wars of Religion grew into a succession crisis that resulted in a war known as the War of the Three Henrys. Henry III's legitimate heir was his distant cousin Henry, King of Navarre, a Protestant. The Catholic League, led by Henry I, Duke of Guise, sought to exclude Protestants from the succession and championed the Catholic Charles, Cardinal of Bourbon, as Henry III's heir.
In 1589, Jacques Clément, a Catholic fanatic, murdered Henry III, who was succeeded by the King of Navarre who, as Henry IV, would assume the throne of France after converting to Catholicism, and become the first French king of the House of Bourbon.

Henry was born at the royal Château de Fontainebleau, the fourth son of King Henry II and Catherine de' Medici and grandson of Francis I of France and Claude of France. His older brothers were Francis II of France, Charles IX of France, and Louis of Valois. He was made Duke of Angoulême and Duke of Orléans in 1560, then Duke of Anjou in 1566.
He was his mother's favourite; she called him chers yeux ("precious eyes") and lavished fondness and affection upon him for most of his life. His elder brother, Charles, grew to detest him, partially because he resented his better health.[citation needed]
Youth
In his youth, Henry was considered the best of the sons of Catherine de' Medici and Henry II[citation needed]. Unlike his father and elder brothers, he had little interest in the traditional Valois pastimes of hunting and physical exercise. Although he was both fond of fencing and skilled in it, he preferred to indulge his tastes for the arts and reading. These predilections were attributed to his Italian mother.
At one point in his youth he showed a tendency towards Protestantism as a means of rebelling. At the age of nine, calling himself "a little Huguenot," he refused to attend Mass, sang Protestant psalms to his sister Margaret (exhorting her all the while to change her religion and cast her Book of Hours into the fire), and even bit the nose off a statue of Saint Paul. His mother firmly cautioned her children against such behaviour, and he would never again show any Protestant tendencies. Instead, he became nominally Roman Catholic.[1]

Henry III by Etienne Dumonstier, c.1578
Reports that Henry engaged in same sex relations with his court favourites, known as the mignons,[2][3] date back to his own time. Certainly he enjoyed intense relationships with them.[4] The scholar Louis Crompton provides substantial contemporary evidence of Henry III's homosexuality, and the resulting problems at court and politics.[5] Some modern historians dispute this. Jean-Francois Solnon,[6] Nicolas Le Roux,[7] and Jacqueline Boucher[8] have noted that Henry had many famous mistresses, that he was well known for his taste in beautiful women, and that no male sex partners have been identified. They have concluded that the idea he was homosexual was promoted by his political opponents (both Protestant and Catholic) who used his dislike of war and hunting to depict him as effeminate and undermine his reputation with the French people. Certainly his religious enemies plumbed the depths of personal abuse in attributing vices to him, topping the mixture with accusations of what they regarded as the ultimate devilish vice, homosexuality. And the portrait of a self-indulgent sodomite, incapable of fathering an heir to the thone, proved useful in efforts by the Catholic League to secure the succession for Cardinal Charles de Bourbon after 1585.[4]
However, most recently, Gary Ferguson has offered a detailed assessment of Henry III and his court in the context of a discussion of the question of homosexuality in the French Renaissance, and found their interpretations unconvincing. "It is difficult," he writes, "to reconcile the king whose use of favourites is so logically strategic with the man who goes to pieces when one of them dies."[9] Katherine Crawford, by contrast, emphasizes the problems Henry's reputation encountered because of his failure to produce an heir and the presence of his powerful mother at court, combined with his enemies' insistence on conflating patronage with favoritism and luxury with decadence.[10]
Elizabeth
In 1570, discussions commenced to arrange for Henry to court Queen Elizabeth I of England. Elizabeth, almost 37, was expected by many parties in her country to marry and produce an heir. However, nothing came of these discussions. In initiating them, Elizabeth is viewed by historians as having intended only to arouse the concern of Spain, rather than contemplate marriage seriously. The chance of marriage was further blighted by differing religious views (Henry was Catholic, Elizabeth Protestant) and his opinion of Elizabeth. Henry tactlessly referred to Elizabeth as a putain publique (public whore) and made stinging remarks about their difference in age. Upon hearing (inaccurately) that she limped because of a varicose vein, he called her an "old creature with a sore leg".[1]

September 19, 1777
The most decisive employment of American riflemen came in 1777, when British Gen. John Burgoyne invaded from Canada with a force of 6,000 British, Hessisians, Tories and Indians that threatened to cut away New England along the Hudson River Valley. Spearheanding Burgoyne’s invaders were Indian scout and a special sharpshooter unit, Capt. Alexander Fraser’s Compasny of Select Marksmen. Chosen “for their strength, ability and being expert at the firing of ball,” their mission was, “to act on the flanks of the advance brigade and reingorce by what number of Indians the Genreal may think fit to employ.”
Unfortunately for the British, their marksmen more than met their match with a newly organized Continental Army unit. By 1777, Gen. Washington had fielded enough smoothbore-armed infantry regiment to afford the luxury of a separate rifle regiment, led by a dynamic, resourceful officer, Col. Daniel Morgan. Although officially designated the 1st Continental Regiment, their armament inspired the nickname, “Morgan’s Kentucky Riflemen.” As Burgoyne’s army descended into New York, these 500 backwoods sharpshooters advanced to meet them. At everyt turn, from every hillock, Morgan’s concealed shooters plinked away, whittling away the invading army’s eyes and ears, It was the stuff of legends.
The riflemen nesxt targeted the Redcoat officer corps. As Gen. Burgoyne later wrote “The [Americans] had with their army great numbers of marksmen, armed with rifle-barrel pieces, these, during an engagement, hovered upon the flanks in small detachments, and were very expert in securing themselves and inn shifting ground…there was seldom a minute’s interval of smoke in any part of our line without officers being taken off by a single shot.”
As the British neared Saratoga on September 19, 1777, for the first time a unit composed solely of riflemen fought a pitched battle against musket-armed European infantry. On favorable terrain, Morgan’s Kentuchy Riflemen so soundly defeatede Burgoyne’s 62nd Regiment that by the end of the day, the British could muster just one companyfor duty. Of 48 artillerymen in one battery, Morgan’s sharpshooters killed or wounded all bgut 12. A british officer wrote,
“The only shelter afforded to the troops was from those angles which faced the enemy as the others were so exposed that we had several men killed and wounded by the riflemen, who were posted in trees.” [14]

Godloves in Third Battle of Winchester
© James Funkhouser
On September 19, 1864, units of Maj. Gen. Philip Sheridan’s Army of the Shenandoah moved west along the Berryville Pike in the initial assault of the Third Battle of Winchester. Although this battle ultimately was a Union victory, this initial thrust was met with ferocious resistance from the forces of the Confederate Army of the Valley, commanded by Lt. General Jubal Early, and the Federals were repulsed with heavy losses. Among those seriously wounded that afternoon was a 21-year-old private in the 24th Iowa Volunteer Infantry, Samuel Godlove, whose unit had been assigned to Sheridan only in August. Samuel was the son of Adam Godlove of Washington County, Iowa, formerly of Perry County, Ohio, and Hardy County, Virginia.
While the Union forces on the Berryville Pike were launching their assault and later while they were pushed back, Union troops advanced from the north and engaged Confederate cavalry near Bunker Hill in Berkeley County, twelve miles north of Winchester. Among these was the 18th Virginia Cavalry, a unit with a sizeable number of men from Hardy County. In a battle that lasted over seven hours, the badly outnumbered Confederate units were pushed back to Winchester. The 18th Cavalry suffered about 40 casualties. Among the wounded was Private Joseph Godlove, Adam’s nephew, the son of his brother Francis of Wardensville. Joseph survived his wound; his older brother Isaac, in the same company, was unhurt. Both lived into the twentieth century
On October 14, twenty-five days after the Third Battle of Winchester, Samuel Godlove died from his wounds. He is buried in the National Cemetery in Winchester. Samuel was the last of Adam’s children to be born in Ohio, the year before his family’s move to Iowa. He died and was buried twenty-five miles from the place of his father’s birth.[35][36]

General Sheridan began the series of movements which led up to the battle of Winchester, September 19, 1864. The part taken by the Twenty-fourth Iowa in that battle is described in the official report of Lieutenant Colonel Wright, as follows [see note 10]:
HEADQUARTERS TWENTY-FOURTH IOWA INFANTRY VOLUNTEERS,
CAMP RUSSELL, VA., November 19, 1864.
COLONEL: I have the honor to submit the following report of the part taken by the Twenty-fourth Regiment of Iowa Infantry Volunteers in the battle of Opequon, or Winchester, Va., September 19, 1864.
The regiment was commanded by Lieutenant Colonel J. Q. Wilds, but circumstances beyond his control prevented him from making an official report, prior to the batttle of Cedar Creek, at which place he was severely wounded, and has since died; for this reason I take the responsibility of making it myself. On the 18th of September, orders were issued from army headquarters, requiring all transportation to be sent to the rear, also all extra baggage, retaining only such articles as could not be dispensed with; these to be carried by the men, and officers' horses. Thus, stripped of everything that would encumber its movements, the Army of the Shenandoah retired to rest in camp near Berryville, Va., on the evening of the 18th, with orders to be in line of battle ready to move at 2 o'clock next morning. The Twenty-fourth Iowa belonged to the Fourth Brigade, Second Division, Detachment Nineteenth Army Corps. The brigade, consisting of the Eighth and Eighteenth Indiana Veteran Volunteers and the Twenty-fourth and Twenty-eighth Iowa, was commanded by Colonel D. Shunk of the Eighth Indiana, the division by Brigadier General C. Grover, the corps by Brevet Major General Emory. At 3 o'clock the advance sounded, and the Nineteenth Corps moved out on the Winchester Pike, halting about three miles west of Berryville, for the Sixth Corps, commanded by Major General Wright, to pass, as it was to have the advance. The Army of Western Virginia, under command of General Crook, moved by another road to the right. Shortly after sunrise, the Sixth Corps having passed, the Nineteenth Corps was put in motion. The Second Division, having the advance, arrived at Opequon Creek about 9 o'clock A. M., when heavy skirmishing and some cannonading was heard in the front, near Winchester. Here we received orders to push forward rapidly, as the cavalry and Sixth Corps were already engaged. When we had reached a point about three miles from Winchester, we turned to the right and moved in the direction of the Winchester and Martinsburg Pike about one mile, and formed line of battle on the right of the Sixth Corps. The Second Division was formed in two lines. The First and Third Brigades formed the first line, and the Second and Fourth Brigades the second. The Twenty-fourth Iowa was on the left center, the Twenty-eighth Iowa on the left, Eighth Indiana on the right, Eighteenth Indiana on the right center, the Fourth Brigade being on the extreme right. Soon after, the First Division, Nineteenth Corps, commanded by General Dwight, came up and formed in the rear as a reserve. In this position we remained until about 12 M., when the advance sounded and the whole line moved forward steadily. The front of the whole division was covered by a strip of woodland, near a third of a mile wide. Beyond this woodland was an open field about one-fourth of a mile wide, beyond which was woodland again. When the second line emerged into the open field, the first line was just entering the wood on the opposite side, having driven the enemy's skirmishers across the open field, and were driving the enemy. The enemy, discovering that our right flank was unprotected, threw a heavy column of infantry, with one battery of artillery, around on our right, nearly at right angles with our lines, and kept them concealed in a deep hollow. In consequence of a flank fire from this column, the first line gave back and passed through the second, when about half way across the field. This created some confusion, but the line was soon in good shape again, and moving forward steadily.
When within one hundred yards of the woods, the column that had been thrown around on our right opened out with musketry and canister shot, showering the iron hail along and almost parallel with our ranks, and mowing down our men by the score. As soon as the flank movement was discovered, the whole line was ordered to fall back to the woods, which was done in as good order as could be expected under the circumstances. The line was reformed and advanced about one-fourth of the way across the field and halted, holding the enemy at bay until some troops could be thrown around to our right, as the enemy's lines extended nearly half a mile to the right of ours. Up to this time the Twenty-fourth had had two officers mortally wounded, and two more severely; six enlisted men killed, and about thirty wounded. This line was held under a most destructive artillery fire from both the front and right flank for about two hours, when General Crook came up with the Army of Western Virginia and formed on the right, relieving the most of the Fourth Brigade. Captains Rigby, Smith and Martin, with Lieutenant Lucas, had been posted with their commands in a point of timber nearest the enemy, with orders to hold it at all hazards, and were not relieved. I had supplied them with ammunition, and when the fresh troops in making the final charge came up even with them, they moved forward with the line, which drove the enemy from every position taken until it became a perfect rout. In this last charge the Twenty-fourth lost a number of brave soldiers wounded, and one killed. After the Fourth Brigade was relieved (except as above mentioned) boxes were filled with ammunition, and it was moved to the extreme right in order to prevent any more flank movements of the enemy, but General Averill, coming in with his cavalry, rendered the movement entirely unnecessary. After the enemy was entirely routed and driven pell-mell from the field, the regiment was got together, and marched about two miles, and went into camp near Winchester, on the Front Royal Pike. Casualties during the day: Officers mortally wounded 2, severely, 4. Enlisted men killed, 9; wounded, 56; captured, 3. Total 74; a list of which is hereto appended. I cannot close this report without referring to Captain J. R. Gould, of Company D, and Lieutenant S. S. Dillman, of Company E, both having been mortally wounded while leading their men on in the hottest of the battle. Both were brave almost to rashness. In them the Twenty-fourth Iowa lost two valuable officers and society two valuable men.
I have the honor to be, most respectfully,
Your Obedient Servant,
ED WRIGHT,
Lieutenant Colonel Twenty-fourth Regiment Iowa Infantry Volunteers.
COL. N. B. BAKER, Adjutant General of Iowa.
It will be seen from the foregoing report that the Twenty-fourth Iowa had, in its first battle in the east, gloriously maintained its previous proud record, and had upheld the honor of its State while fighting beside the trained veterans of the Army of the Potomac.
On the night of September 19 the regiment went into camp near Winchester. The next morning it marched towards Cedar Creek, and in the evening found the enemy strongly intrenched at Fisher's Hill. The Twenty-fourth Iowa actively participated in the movements which followed and which culminated in the battle of Fisher's Hill, in which, and in the pursuit which followed, the regiment participated, but fortunately — owing to the positions to which its brigade was assigned — it had but one officer and four men wounded. Lieutenant Colonel Wright, in his official report [see note 11], describes minutely the part taken by his regiment in the battle of Fisher's Hill, and highly commends the officers and men for their prompt obedience to orders and the gallant manner in which they conducted themselves during the battle and the subsequent pursuit of the enemy. The rebel General Early and his army had again been defeated and compelled to retreat up the Shenandoah valley.[39]
September 19, 1864: The 18th Cav was part of the Confederate force that guarded the Shenandoah Valley in 1863 and 1864. It participated in the Valley Campaign of 1864, including the Battle of New Market (May 15), the Second Battle of Kernstown (July 24), the Third Battle of Winchester (September 19), the Battle of Cedar Creek (October 19) and remained in the Valley, usually the Page Valley in the east of the larger Shenandoah Valley, through the rest of the year, participating in several less-consequential engagements, and losing about forty percent of its members, killed, wounded, captured.

September 19, 1881: Failed lawyer and office seeker Charles Guiteau, convinced that new president James Garfield would be the ruin of the Republican Party, shoots him in the back and arm in a Washington, D.C. train station July 2, 1881. Garfield, his injuries aggravated by unsanitary care, dies September 19. Calling his act a “political necessity,” Guiteau pleads insanity but is convicted. He is hanged June 30, 1882.[43]
September 19, 1905: Daniel Gutleben married Miriam Eunice CHURCH on September 19, 1905 in St Louis,Gratiot,Michigan. Miriam was born on September 7, 1876 in Elsie,Clinton, MI and died on May 14, 1961 in ,Contra Costa,CA at age 84. [44]
September 1909: With the success of Scouting for Boys, Baden-Powell set up a central Boy Scouts office, which registered new Scouts and designed a uniform. By the end of 1908, there were 60,000 Boy Scouts, and troops began springing up in British Commonwealth countries across the globe. In September 1909, the first national Boy Scout meeting was held at the Crystal Palace in London. Ten thousand Scouts showed up, including a group of uniformed girls who called themselves the Girl Scouts. In 1910, Baden-Powell organized the Girl Guides as a separate organization.
The American version of the Boy Scouts has it origins in an event that occurred in London in 1909. Chicago publisher William Boyce was lost in the fog when a Boy Scout came to his aid. After guiding Boyce to his destination, the boy refused a tip, explaining that as a Boy Scout he would not accept payment for doing a good deed. [45]
April to September 1915: Just a year or so before the organization of the Modern Klan an event took place of the very first importance in its influence upon the Northern sentiment toward the Klan, namesly, the production of David W. Griffith’s great moving picture, “The Birth of a Nation.” It is simply impossible to estimate the educative effect of this film masterpiece upon public sentiment. It is probable that the great majority of adult Americans have at one time or another seen this film. In the Boston theaters, where it was admitted only after a bitter fight that served merely to advertise it, the picture was shown twice daily from April to September 1915, to a total of almost four hundred thousand spectators. It broke the records in Boston and New York and in other large cities. That the modern Klan recognized the advertising value of “The Birth of a Nation” seems to be indicated in the proposal to make use of a moving picture as part of the Klan propaganda which “shows the hooded figures of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan riding to the rescue, and prortrays the final triumph of decent and orderly governemtn by real Americans over the alien influences now at work in our midst.” [46]

(DuBois) Hamilton d April 26, 1935 at Sioux City, Ia. [49]
September 1938: ." It is also no coincidence that when Juan Negrin, head of the Republican government, announced in September 1938 the unilateral withdrawal of the International Brigades from Spain for diplomatic reasons, the Botwin Company formed the rear guard of the troops as they withdraw across the border into France. Jewish participation in the Spanish Civil War put to a lie the assertion that Jews are by nature "timid and non-combative... that Jews did not resist the Nazi murderers because... submission is in their national character." When the first shots of World War II were fired, in the prologue of that ghastly war, Jews were not only present in overwhelming numbers, but they incontrovertibly proved their heroism.
September 1939: The war that started in Europe in September 1939 began to draw the United States in during the two years prior to Pearl Harbor, and by the spring of 1941, efforts were well under way to escort convoys carrying supplies to England. By the late summer, U.S. ships were convoying vessels to a midocean meeting point where the British Navy would see that the ships reached England safely. By late October, German U-boats had torpedoed three U.S. Navy ships, two destroyers and an oiler, sinking the destroyer Reuben James on Halloween night.
Five weeks later, Japan attacked Pearl Harbor. Though public knowledge of the attack came slowly by today’s standards — through radio reports and newspapers, rather than live, round-the-clock television footage — the outrage spread quickly.
Sinking the mighty U.S. battleships, “the backbone of the fleet,” 60 years ago seemed nearly as impossible and improbable as toppling the twin towers of the World Trade Center in some far-fetched suicide hijacking.
But hell-bent enemies achieved both objectives. And in 1941 and 2001, Americans responded with self-sacrifice and heroism of the highest order as suddenly they were forced to transition from peace to war footing.
Ordinary heroes Just as firefighters, police officers and citizens off the street rushed to save others trapped in the doomed World Trade Center and wounded Pentagon, heroes rose from the ranks at Pearl Harbor to save their brothers in arms and defend their country.
Marines manning machine guns on board the battleship Nevada remained at their posts as fires raged beneath them, keeping their weapons in action throughout the battle and living to tell the tale. On board the flooding battleship Oklahoma, Ensign Francis G. Flaherty, USNR, and Seaman 1st Class James R. Ward held flashlights, lighting the way for shipmates to escape at the cost of their own lives. On the target ship Utah, Austrian-born Chief Watertender Peter Tomich remained behind to secure the boilers and ensure that his shipmates in the fireroom escaped.
All three men — Flaherty, Ward and Tomich — were posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor.
The cataclysmic explosion of the battleship Arizona’s forward magazines triggered fires that consumed the warship and swept men off the repair ship Vestal, tied up alongside. Vestal’s captain, Cmdr. Cassin Young, was among those hurled into the oily, burning waters. Young hauled himself up the accommodation ladder and into the fight. He got the Vestal under way and cleared the side of the doomed battleship, an act that saved the Vestal. Young was awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions.
A kind of providence kept the disaster at Pearl Harbor from being much worse. The Japanese spared the fuel-tank farms that lay prominently in sight; some tanks even outlandishly camouflaged to resemble buildings. The fuel stored there enabled the fleet to continue operating from Pearl, for oil was the lifeblood of its ships. The Navy Yard lay virtually untouched, providing a safe haven where damaged vessels could be repaired to fight again. Had the battleships sunk that day been off Lahaina, the deepwater anchorage off Maui, they would have been irretrievable. As it was, only the Arizona and Oklahoma never returned to active service, while the others were all raised, repaired and returned to the fight.
While the Japanese attack crippled the battle line, it missed the Pacific Fleet’s aircraft carriers. The Enterprise and Lexington were engaged in aircraft-ferrying missions to Wake Island and Midway, while the Saratoga was in San Diego, readying to return to Pearl. Although some aircraft from the Enterprise engaged Japanese planes that morning, flying in to Pearl as the attack unfolded, the ship and her planes survived the day unscathed. She would remain in action, though bloodied in battle, for the rest of the war.
“It could never happen here,” could have been said by Americans in 2001, echoing their forebears in 1941. America’s security had long been assured by a moat — the oceans that wash both coasts — although the advent of the airplane had shrunk distances. Most Americans would have considered an onslaught as terrible as occurred on 11 September as virtually unthinkable — like Americans of 1941 considered the fleet secure at Pearl Harbor. After all, what nation would dare send a force across the Pacific Ocean, risking detection, to attack the U.S. Pacific Fleet at its base? While the possibility existed, none but the most farsighted could have dreamed that an adversary would carry out such a daring plan.
In 1941, there were indications the United States and Japan were headed for war, but the handful of leaders who were privy to Japanese codes failed to prepare the American public for that possibility. While the debate continues about whether the commanders on the scene in Hawaii had enough information to prepare for or prevent a possible attack, no one believed that Pearl Harbor was a target — no more than anyone could have predicted that the twin towers in New York City would be attacked and brought down.
Until that attack, calls for the need to vigorously defend against the threat of domestic terrorism were all but ignored.
Now homeland defense is a national priority.
This was the lesson of 12-7-41: Expect the unexpected.
America was reminded the hard way on 9-11-01 of the need to heed that lesson.
Always.

September 1939: The Luftwaffe was configured to serve as a crucial part of the German blitzkrieg, or "lightning war"--the deadly military strategy developed by General Heinz Guderian. As German panzer divisions burst deep into enemy territory, lethal Luftwaffe dive-bombers would decimate the enemy's supply and communication lines and cause panic. By the outbreak of World War II in September 1939, the Luftwaffe had an operational force of 1,000 fighters and 1,050 bombers.
First Poland and then Denmark, Norway, Holland, Belgium, and France fell to the blitzkrieg. After the surrender of France, Germany turned the Luftwaffe against Britain, hoping to destroy the RAF in preparation for a proposed German landing. However, in the epic air battle known as the Battle of Britain, the outnumbered RAF fliers successfully resisted the Luftwaffe, relying on radar technology, their new, highly maneuverable Spitfire aircraft, bravery, and luck. For every British plane shot down, two German warplanes were destroyed. In the face of British resistance, Hitler changed strategy in the Battle of Britain, abandoning his invasion plans and attempting to bomb London into submission. However, in this campaign, the Luftwaffe was hampered by its lack of strategic, long-range bombers, and in early 1941 the Battle of Britain ended in failure.
Britain had handed the Luftwaffe its first defeat. Later that year, Hitler ordered an invasion of the USSR, which after initial triumphs turned into an unqualified disaster. As Hitler stubbornly fought to overcome Russia's bitter resistance, the depleted Luftwaffe steadily lost air superiority over Europe in the face of increasing British and American air attacks. By the time of the D-Day invasion of Normandy in June 1944, the Luftwaffe air fleet was a skeleton of its former self.[51]
September 1939: With the outbreak of the Second World War in September 1939 the Iraqi Government complied with a British request to break off diplomatic relations with Germany, interned all German nationals, and introduced emergency measures putting Iraq on a virtual war-footing.[112] A circle of 7 officers opposed this decision and the measures taken.[52]
September 1939: The Duke and Duchess settled in France. On the outbreak of the Second World War in September 1939, they were brought back to Britain by Louis Mountbatten on board HMS Kelly, and the Duke, although an honorary field marshal, was made a major-general attached to the British Military Mission in France.[33[53]
September 1941: The Hlinka's Guard began to attack Jews, and the "Jewish Code" was passed in September 1941. Resembling the Nuremberg Laws, the Code required that Jews wear a yellow armband, banned intermarriage and denied Jews the opportunity to hold a variety of jobs.[54]
September 19, 1941 : The Jews in the Reich are required to wear the yellow badge in public.[55]
September 19, 1941: Kiev is captured by Germans; 10,000 Jews have been killed in Zhitomir.[56]
September 1942: Deportations from Lodz to Chelmno begin, and continue until September 1942.[57]
September 1943: In September 1943, intense negotiations to rescue 500 Jewish children from the town of Arbe in Croatia collapsed due to the objection of al-Husseini who blocked the children's departure to Turkey because they would end up in Palestine.[140][58]
September 19, 1945: After World War II the Hessian territory left of the Rhine was again occupied by France, whereas the rest of the country was part of the US occupation zone. The French separated their part of Hesse from the rest of the country and incorporated it into the newly founded state of Rhineland-Palatinate (Rheinland-Pfalz). The United States, on the other side, proclaimed the state of Greater Hesse (Groß-Hessen) on September 19, 1945, out of Hesse-Darmstadt and most of the former Prussian province of Hesse-Nassau. On December 4, 1946 Groß-Hessen was officially renamed Hessen.[5][59]
September 1948: John Gutleben next married Lucy MULKEY in September 1948 in ,,CA. Lucy was born on August 27, 1876 in ,Butler,KS and died on August 29, 1974 in Forest Grove,Lane,OR at age 98. [60]

September 1952:
7847 Eastern Avenue, northwest of intersection with Georgia Avenue: bronze plaque in place of stone in the sidewalk in front of a shop. The stone was accidentally bulldozed and removed during the construction of the storefront in September 1952. [62]
September 1961 This month, the U.S. border patrol receives information that
David Ferrie is attempting to purchase a C-47 airplane for $30,000 and reportedly has a cache of
arms in the New Orleans area. The report is never verified.
Oswald’s Diary: Sept - Oct 18. No word from Min. (They'll call us.") Marina leaves
Minsk by train on vaction to the city of Khkov in the Urals to vist an aunt for 4 weeks.
During this time I am lonely but I and Erich go to the dances and public places for
enitanment. I havent done this in quite a few months now. I spend my birthday alone at
the opera watching my favoriot "Queen of Spades." I am 22 years old.
Early this month, according to former FBI Supervisor William Kane, an informant tells
the Bureau that RFK has recently been seen “out in the desert near Las Vegas with not one but
two girls, on a blanket. Somebody in organized crime has taken telephoto pictures ... and the
word we got from our informants is that they are going to use it to blackmail the Attorney
General. This was confirmed several times over from several different sources.” [63]
September 1963 Antonio Veciana claims "Maurice Bishop" introduces him to
Lee Harvey Oswald at a meeting in Dallas this month. David Atlee Phillips, is running the CIA's
covert operations out of its Mexico City station. It has long been speculated that Phillips is really
"Maurice Bishop", who is eventually identified by exile leader Veciana, speaking to
Congressional investigators in 1978, as his CIA case officer, involved in numerous assassination
plots against Castro. Although Phillips' physical description is a near-match for that provided by
Veciana, the exile has never positively identify Phillips as "Bishop". Phillips, who will die in 1988,
denied using the alias or working with Veciana.
Also this month, FBI (Philadelphia) AIRTEL to J. Edgar Hoover regarding Marcello
informant’s report on the New Orleans incident (three men, including the “professor,” discussing
a rifle ad, and President’s coming south). A September 1963 FBI teletype reports that a discussion
of such a plot has been overheard in March 1963. Supposedly this information is also sent by
AIRTEL to the Dallas and Miami CACs. And yet, no such threat will be found in the Secret
Service’s PRS file for Dallas prior to the President’s ill-fated trip. AOT[64]
September 19, 1963 JFK takes a phone call today from Ambassador to the United
Nations, Adlai Stevenson. Stevenson is reporting that, through an obscure African diplomat,
Fidel Castro has expressed interest in reaching some sort of accommodation with the United
States. Castro, it is reported, is unhappy about the way Cuba is becoming tied to the Soviet
Union, and is looking for a way out. JFK gives his approval and appoints William Attwood as a
go-between. JFK has two conditions: on no account must it appear the the United States has
solicited the discussions. And the contact is to be informal and top secret. Authur Schlesinger
will eventually say: “Undoubtedly if word leaked of President Kennedy’s efforts, that might have been exactly the
kind of thing to trigger some explosion of fanatical violence. It seems to me a possibility not to be excluded.” (NIYL) [65]
September 1964: Scamp headed west again for advanced readiness training. She arrived back in San Diego in September 1964. [66]
September 1978: The identity of the Umbrella Man remained a secret for 15 years. Then, in September 1978, a man named Louie Steven Witt appeared before the U.S. House of Representatives Select Committee on Assassinations and admitted that he was the Umbrella Man. He told the Committee that he been there in Dealey Plaza to heckle JFK, and that he displayed the umbrella because he was under the impression that brandishing an umbrella would irritate JFK. He testified: “I was going to use this umbrella to heckle the President’s motorcade. ... Being a conservative-type fellow, I sort of placed him [JFK] in the liberal camp, and I was just sort of going to kind of do a little heckling. ... I just knew it was a sore spot with the Kennedys. ... I was carrying that stupid umbrella, intent [on] heckling the President.” Witt denied that the umbrella he had in Dealey Plaza symbolized the appeasement practices of English Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain (who often sported a black umbrella), or that the umbrella was intended to suggest that JFK was appeasing Communism the way Chamberlain had appeased Hitler. This denial is not credible. Among right-wingers, it was an article of faith that JFK’s supposedly soft, weak-kneed policies against the threat of Communism were the equivalent of Chamberlain’s futile attempts to appease Adolf Hitler.[67]
September 1978: in an unprecedented move for an Arab leader, Sadat traveled to Jerusalem, Israel, to seek a permanent peace settlement with Egypt's Jewish neighbor after decades of conflict. Sadat's visit, in which he met with Begin and spoke before Israel's parliament, was met with outrage in most of the Arab world. Despite criticism from Egypt's regional allies, Sadat continued to pursue peace with Begin, and in September 1978 the two leaders met again in the United States, where they negotiated an agreement with U.S. President Jimmy Carter at Camp David, Maryland. The Camp David Accords, the first peace agreement between the state of Israel and one of its Arab neighbors, laid the groundwork for diplomatic and commercial relations. Seven months later, a formal peace treaty was signed.
For their achievement, Sadat and Begin were jointly awarded the 1978 Nobel Prize for Peace. Sadat's peace efforts were not so highly acclaimed in the Arab world--Egypt was suspended from the Arab League, and on October 6, 1981, Muslim extremists assassinated Sadat in Cairo. Nevertheless, the peace process continued without Sadat, and in 1982 Egypt formally established diplomatic relations with Israel.[68]
September 19, 1991:
3.3k BC In 1991 German hikers Erica and Helmut Simon found a well-preserved prehistoric corpse, dated to about this time. He was later named Oetzi (Frozen Fritz). He was found on September 19, 1991, in a glacier on the Hauslabjoch Pass, about 100 yards from Austria in northern Italy. It was kept at the Univ. of Innsbruck for study. In 1998 analysis indicated that the Ice Man had internal parasites and carried the woody fruit of a tree fungus as a remedy. Tattoos on the body were also found to be placed over areas of active arthritis. A flint arrow was also found in his back. In 2007 forensic researchers said he died either from hitting his head on a rock when he passed out or because his attacker hit him in the head.
He had a copper axe, and bearskin and hay boots. [69] [70]
September 1994: The Institute of Nautical Archaeology (INA) began excavating in July 1984 under the direction of its founder, George F. Bass, and was then turned over to INA’s Vice President for Turkey, Cemal Pulak, who directed the excavation from 1985 to 1994.[16] The wreck lay between 44 and 52 meters deep on a steep, rocky slope riddled with sand pockets.[17] Half of the staff members who aided in the excavation lived in a camp built into the southeastern face of the promontory, which the ship most likely hit, while the other half lived aboard the Virazon, INA’s research vessel at the time. The excavation site utilized an underwater telephone booth, air-lifts, and a horizontal stereo-bar. The mapping of the site was done by triangulation. Meter tapes and metal squares were used as an orientation aid for excavators.[18] Since the completion of the excavation in September 1994, all efforts have been concentrated on full-time conservation, study, and sampling for analysis in the conservation laboratory of the Bodrum Museum of Underwater Archaeology in Turkey.[71]
September 1995: In 1990 and 1991, a resurveying team led by David Doyle to celebrate the District's bicentennial located two of the then-missing stones, SE8 (which already had been lost once before and replaced with a replica) and SE4. Next, in September 1995, the Northern Virginia Boundary Stones Committee (NOVABOSTCO), under the leadership of chairman Ric Terman, issued a 77-page report on the status of the fourteen stones in Virginia. NOVABOSTCO's successor, the Nation's Capital Boundary Stones Committee (NACABOSTCO), has worked since 2000 to ensure the preservation and appreciation of all of the stones, partnering with DAR, the American Society of Civil Engineers - National Capital Section (ASCE-NCS), the District of Columbia Association of Land Surveyers, and other government agencies, historical societies, and professional associations. ASCE-NCS leads a biannual restoration project that picks up where Troop 98 left off in 1978. [72]

Our subject Robert Craig was married to Miss Sarah Godlove in 1841, in Perry County, Ohio; she was the daughter of Adam and Susannah (Tattman) Godlove), the former was born in Virginia, and his wife in Maryland. They were married and lived in Ohio, where they were early settlers of Perry County. They reared the following children: Sarah, Josiah, Bartholomew, Lizzie, Samuel, Catherine, Mary, Maggie and Benjamin, all of whom were born in Ohio. John was born in Iowa after the family came to this State in 1843.
Samuel was a soldier in the 10th Iowa, and enlisted at the beginning of the war. He fell at the battle Winchester, pierced by seventeen balls. The family moved to Iowa with teams, and settled on a small farm west of Yatton. There was only one log house there at that date, and it has long since been torn down.

[33] Third Battle of Winchester
On September 19, 1864, units of Maj. Gen. Philip Sheridan’s Army of the Shenandoah moved west along the Berryville Pike in the initial assault of the Third Battle of Winchester. Although this battle ultimately was a Union victory, this initial thrust was met with ferocious resistance from the forces of the Confederate Army of the Valley, commanded by Lt. General Jubal Early, and the Federals were repulsed with heavy losses. Among those seriously wounded that afternoon was a 21-year old private in the 24th Iowa Volunteer Infantry, Samuel Godlove, whose unit had been assigned to Sheridan only in August. Samuel was the son of Adam Godlove of Washington County, Iowa, formerly of Perry County, Ohio, and Hardy County, Virginia.
While the Union forces on the Berryville Pike were launching their assault and later while they were pushed back, Union troops advanced from the north and engaged Confederate cavalry near Bunker Hill in Berkeley County. Among these was the 18th Virginia Cavalry, a unit with a sizeable number of men from Hardy County. In a battle that lasted over seven hours, the badly outnumbered Confederate units were pushed back to Winchester. The 18th Cavalry suffered about 40 casualties. Among the wounded was Private Joseph Godlove, Adam’s nephew, the son of his brother Francis of Wardensville. Joseph survived his wound; his older brother Isaac, in the same company, was unhurt. Both lived into the twentieth century
On 14 October, twenty-five days after the Third Battle of Winchester, Samuel Godlove died from his wounds. He was buried in the National Cemetery in Winchester. Samuel was the last of Adam’s children to be born in Ohio, the year before his family’s move to Iowa. He died and was buried just twenty-seven miles from the place of his father’s birth.[33]

[34] Headquarter Twenty-Fourth Iowa. Infantry Volunteer, Camp Russell, VA., Nov. 19, 1864.
Colonel: I have the honor to submit the following report of the art taken by the Twenty-fourth Regiment of Iowa infantry Volunteers in the battle of Opequon, or Winchester, Va., Sept. 19, 1864. The regiment was commanded by Lieutenant Colonel J. Q. Wilds, but circumstances beyond his control prevented him from making an official report, prior to the battle of Cedar Creek, at which place he was severely wounded, and has since died; for this reason I take the responsibility of making it myself…
The Twenty-fourth Iowa, belonged to the Fourth Brigade, Second Division, Detachment Nineteenth Army Corps. The brigade consisting of the Eighth and Eighteenth Indiana Veteran Volunteers and the Twenty-fourth and Twenty-eighth Iowa was commanded by Colonel D. Shunk of the Eighth Indiana, the division by Brigadier General C. Grover, the corps by Brevet Major General Emory. At 3 o’clock the advance sounded, and the Nineteenth Corps moved out on the Winchester Pike, halting about three miles west of Berryville, for the Sixth Corps, commanded by Major General Wright, to pass, as it was to have the advance. The Army of Western Virginia, under command of General Croc, moved by another road to the right. Shortly after sunrise, the Sixth Corps having passed, the Nineteenth Corps was put in motion. The Second Division, having the advance, arrived at Opequon Creek about 9 o’clock A.M., when heavy skirmishing and some cannonading was heard in the front, near Winchester. Here we received orders to push forward rapidly, as the cavalry and Sixth Corps were already engaged. When we had reached a point about three miles from Winchester, we turned to the right and moved in the direction of the Winchester and Martinsburg Pike about one mile, and formed the first line, and the Second and Fourth Brigades the second. The Twenty-fourth Iowa was on the left center. The Twenty-eighth Iowa on the left, Eighth Indiana on the right, Eighteenth Indiana on the right center, the Fourth Brigade being on the extreme right. Soon after, the First Division, Nineteenth Corps, commanded by General Dwight came up and formed in the rear as a reserve. In this position we remained until about 12m. when the advance sounded and the whole line moved forward steadily. The front of the whole division was covered by a strip of woodland, near a third of a mile wide. Beyond this woodland was an open field about one fourth of a mile wide, beyond which was woodland again. When the second line emerged into the open field, the first line was just entering the wood on the opposite side, having driven the enemy’s skirmishers across the open field, and were driving the enemy. The enemy, discovering that our right flank was unprotected, threw a heavy column of infantry, with one battery of artillery, around on our right, nearly at right angles with our lines, and kept them concealed in a deep hollow. In consequence of a flank fire from this column, the first line gave back and passed through the second, when about half way across the field. This created some confusion, but the line was soon in good shape again, and moving forward steadily.
When within one hundred yards of the woods, the column that had been thrown around on our right opened out with musketry and canister shot, (cast iron with no explosive. Used against cavalry, troops in a column, buildings, and other solid objects. More accurate than shell or spherical case with a longer range. (The 2010 Civil War Calendar)) showering the iron hail along and almost parallel with our ranks and mowing down our men by the score. As soon as the flank movement was discovered, the whole line was ordered to fall back to the woods, which was done in as good order as could be expected under the circumstances. The line was reformed and advanced about one fourth of the way across the field and halted, holding the enemy at bay until some troops could be thrown around to our right, as the enemy’s lines extended nearly half a mile to the right of ours. Up to this time the Twenty-fourth had had two officers mortally wounded, and two more severely:six enlisted men killed, and about thirty wounded. This line was held under a most destructive artillery fire from both the front and right flank for about two hours, when General Crook came up with the Army of Western Virginia and formed on the right, relieving the most of the Fourth Brigade. Captains Rigby, Smith and Martin, with Lieutenant Lucas, had been posted with their commands in a point of timber nearest the enemy, with orders to hold it at all hazards, and were not relieved. I had supplied them with ammunition, and when the fresh troops in making the final charge came up even with them, they moved forward with the line, which drove the enemy from every position taken until it became a perfect rout. In this last charge the Twenty-fourth lost a number of brave soldiers wounded, and one killed. After the Fourth Brigade was relieved (except as above mentioned) boxes were filled with ammunition, and it was moved to the extreme right in order to prevent any more flank movements of the enemy, but General Averill, coming in with his cavalry, rendered the movement entirely unnecessary. After the enemy was entirely routed and driven pell-mell from the field, the regiment was got together, and marched about two miles, and went into camp near Winchester, on the Front Royal Pike. Casualties during the day: Officers mortally wounded 2, severely, 4. Enlisted men killed, 9; wounded, 56; captured, 3. Total 74; a list of which is hereto appended. I cannot close this report without referring to Captain J. R. Gould, of Company D, and Lieutenant S. S. Dillman, of Company E, both having been mortally wounded while leading their men on in the hottest of the battle. Both were brave almost to rashness. In them the Twenty-fourth Iowa lost two valuable officers and society two valuable men.
I have the honor to be, most respectfully, Your Obedient Servant,
Ed Wright, Lieutenant Colonel Twenty-fourth Regiment, Iowa Infantry Volunteers. (Roster of Iowa Soldiers in the War of the Rebellion Vol. III, 24th Regiment-Infantry.
