The Unbroken Line
It is the morning of June 3rd 1944. Crew members of the Aircraft Carrier USS Croatan are not aware that D-Day is only three days away as the ship's galley is readied for "morning mess". It is "zero dark thirty" as Navy cooks Sal Duarte and Joe Cruz serves the crew of about 1000 sailors aboard ship. The bosun's pipe shrills via intercom, followed by "all hands man your battle stations" as Duarte, Cruz and others in the galley race through gas shut off procedures and man the 20 mm machineguns. The Croatan has been ordered to provide support to the USS Guadalcanal in a secret operation in the North Atlantic. The world does not know and will not know until the end of World War II, that the USS Guadalcanal is about to capture the German U-Boat U-505; along with the Enigma encrypting machine and codebook making it possible for the U.S. Navy to intensify devastating blows in the North Atlantic to the 3rd Reich as World War II comes to an end.
General Douglas MacArthur by his signature marks the end of World War II on September 2nd 1945. The end of World War II ushers in a period of political change. As members of "the Greatest Generation", my father Sal Duarte and his life-long friend, Joe Cruz, are now destined to return to their homes in California. It is hoped by returning servicemen that the last Great War has been fought. The atomic age, however, ushered by the instability of Communist versus Free China; bears Korea as the next stage of conflict.
At dawn October 31st 1945, Duarte boards a train to Chicago. He reports to the USO in Chicago for a one night's stay. The next day he boards a train to San Pedro California. The process of honorable discharge proceeds as he and his shipmates are honored with a Navy band playing "Anchors Away". The "Ruptured Duck", The Honorable Service Lapel Button, is awarded to him along with a one-way bus pass to his hometown, San Fernando. Duarte still in Navy uniform tears his bus pass in half as he flips a thumb out for a ride. An elder couple in their car immediately stops. "Where ya headed son"? The young sailor explains he is returning to San Fernando to surprise his family. He then hitches a 2-hour ride directly to his mother's doorstep.
A candle light vigil has continued for nearly four years by Margarita and Refugio Duarte who have prayed for their son's safe return. It is 7 November 1945. Prayers have been answered. Thanks be to God, Salvador has been returned safely. It is now a celebration of life with the first home cooked meal as Salvador, Refugio and Margarita are reunited.
It's back to work for Duarte who, while temporarily residing with his parents, meets and befriends his neighbor Chuy (Jesus Castro). Just 15 years old, Chuy recently moved from Mexico and is renting a room from Temoteo and Maria Hernandez in the house next door. Chuy's life has already been fraught with challenges. An only child, he was born March 14, 1930 in California. His mother, Valvina Beas Castro, dies giving him birth. Chuy's father, Casimiro Castro returns to Mexico with his newborn son. Shortly thereafter, Casimiro Castro dies. Chuy's uncle Guadalupe Beas and his wife Maria Inez Beas temporarily care for Chuy. A few years later, his grandfather, Don Rito (Tiburcio Castro) adopts Chuy and raises him through his early teens. Chuy then returns to California to pursue his dream: Earn enough money to build a home in the village in Mexico where he was raised.
Two years slip by. Just before the outbreak of hostilities in Korea, Chuy becomes engaged to marry one of my mother's sisters living in the village where he was raised. Political issues building thousands of miles away in Korea do not go by unnoticed. Many who live and work in the mission hamlet of San Fernando are aware of the coming storm. Chuy's life dream is temporarily on hold. He is called to serve our country as a soldier in military operations in Korea, and answers the call enthusiastically. Though Chuy grew up in Mexico, his greatest pride, now, is to serve our country wearing the uniform of an American Soldier.
My father and mother (Juanita), newly married, receive letters from Chuy in Korea. Chuy writes that he hopes to see everyone again, no matter how far away he is. He knows that Salvador and Juanita will be visiting the village where he grew up, and asks that they give his salutations to all at home, to remember him with a toast of Tequila.
Military records reveal that PFC Castro was a member of the 8th Cavalry Regiment, 1st Calvary Division. He was wounded by the enemy in North Korea on August 5, 1951 and returned to duty later that day. He was killed in Action while fighting the enemy in North Korea on October 15, 1951. Private First Class Castro was awarded the Purple Heart with Oak Cluster, the Combat Infantryman's Badge, the Korean Service Medal, the United Nations Service Medal, the National Defense Medal and the KOREAN War Service Medal.
President Truman writes: "In Grateful Memory of Private First Class Jesus B. Castro who died in service of his country in the military operations in Korea on October 15, 1951 – He stands in the unbroken line of patriots who have dared to die that Freedom might live and grow, and increase in blessings. Freedom lives, and through it, he lives – in a way that humbles the undertakings of most men."
This document is presented to Private Castro's grandfather in Jalisco Mexico, in a little village (La Barranca de los Otates) 90 miles south of Guadalajara. It was there that Private Castro was laid to rest with a full U.S. Military Honor Guard - a grateful nation presented its flag to Maria Inez Beas. Chuy was 21 years old. Don Rito temporarily stores the documents that memorialize his grandson's "last measure of devotion." Don Rito's death soon afterwards caused that these documents remain forgotten for more than 50 years.
In "Grateful Memory" of all American Service men and women who sacrificed and continue to sacrifice for our Freedom in outposts through out the world, let us remember that "All gave some, and some gave ALL" in "The Unbroken Line" of our Country's Patriots.

Liberia: a Country of People ‘Repatriated' from ‘Freedom'
Liberia: a Country of People ‘Repatriated' from ‘Freedom'
By
Chandrasekharan Kunnath
Introduction
The early history of Liberia is composed of several conquests and migrations among the tribes who lived there.
Between 1461 and late 17th century, Portuguese, Dutch and British traders had contacts and trading posts in what became Liberia. The Portuguese had named the area Costa da Pimenta (meaning Pepper Coast), later translated as Grain Coast, because of the abundance of grains of melegueta pepper.
In 1822, the American Colonization Society (A.C.S.), working to "repatriate" black americans to greater freedom in Africa, established Liberia as a place to send people who were formerly enslaved. This movement of black people by the A.C.S. had broad support nationwide among white people in the United States, including politicians such as Henry Clay and James Monroe. They believed this was preferable to emancipation of slaves in the United States. Clay said, because of "unconquerable prejudice resulting from their color, they never could amalgamate with the free whites of this country. It was desirable, therefore, as it respected them, and the residue of the population of the country, to drain them off." The institution of slavery in the U.S. had grown, reaching almost four million slaves by the mid 19th century. Some free african americans chose to emigrate to Liberia. The immigrants became known as Americo-Liberians. Many present-day Liberians trace their ancestry to them. On July 26, 1847, Americo-Liberian settlers declared independence of the Republic of Liberia.
Geography
Liberia is situated in West Africa, bordering the North Atlantic Ocean to the country's southwest. The landscape is characterized by mostly flat to rolling coastal plains that contain mangroves and swamps, which rise to a rolling plateau and low mountains in the northeast. Tropical rainforests cover the hills, while elephant grass and semi-deciduous forests make up the dominant vegetation in the northern sections. The equatorial climate is hot year-round with heavy rainfall from May to October with a short interlude in mid-July to August. During the winter months of November to March, dry dust-laden harmattan winds blow inland, causing many problems for residents.

The Promised Land
Although the settlers regarded Africa as the ‘Promised Land' it was a strange contradiction that they did not accept local African society and never integrated themselves into it. Perhaps, they considered themselves superior and called themselves Americans apparently forgetting their origin. The local Africans as well as the British Colonial Authorities in neighbouring Sierra Leone also treated them as such.
The religious practices, social customs and culture of the Americo-Liberians had their roots in the Southern States of U.S.A. These ideals strongly influenced the attitudes of the settlers toward the indigenous African people. The new nation, as they perceived it, was exclusive: it consisted of the settler community and with those Africans who were assimilated into it. Mutual mistrust and hostility between the "Americans" along the coast and the "Natives" of the interior was a recurrent theme in the country's history. The Americo-Liberian minority strove to dominate the native people, whom they considered inferior. Immigrants named the land "Liberia", which in Latin roughly means "Land of the Free" suggesting freedom from slavery.
Liberia
Historically, Liberia has enjoyed the support and unofficial cooperation of the United States government. Liberia's government, modelled after that of the U.S., was democratic in structure, if not always in substance. In 1877, the True Whig Party monopolized political power in the country. Competition for office was usually contained within the party, whose nomination virtually ensured election. Two problems confronting successive administrations were pressure from neighboring colonial powers, Britain and France, and the threat of financial insolvency, both of which challenged the country's sovereignty. However, Liberia retained its independence but lost its claim to extensive territories that were annexed by Britain and France. Economic development was hindered by the decline of markets for Liberian goods in the late 19th century and by indebtedness on a series of loans, payments on which drained the economy.
Economic Development
Two events mark an important phase in the modernization and economic development of Liberia.
In 1926, a large concession was granted to the Firestone Plantation Company.
During World War II, the United States began providing technical and economic assistance that enabled Liberia to make economic progress and introduce social change. Both the Freeport of Monrovia and Roberts international Airport were built by US personnel.
Military Coup
On April 12, 1980, a military coup was brought off by a group of non-commissioned army officers led by Master Sergeant Samuel Doe. The soldiers were a mixture of the various ethnic groups that claimed marginalization at the hands of the minority Americo-Liberian settlers. In a late-night raid on the Executive Mansion in Monrovia, they killed the President, who had been holding office for nine years, and later executed a majority of his cabinet. Calling themselves the People's Redemption Council, Doe and his associates seized control of the government and brought an end to Africa's first Republic.
Significantly, Doe was the first Liberian Head of State who was not a member of the Americo-Liberian elite.
Civil War & Bloodshed
In October 1985, the first post-coup elections sponsored by Samuel Doe were held although the Liberia Action Party led by Jackson Doe had already had won the election by a clear margin. The election was rigged by Samuel Doe and his supporters and it was announced that Samuel Doe's ruling National Democratic Party of Liberia had won with 50.9% of the vote. In retaliation, on November 12, a counter-coup was launched by Thomas Quiwonkpa, whose soldiers briefly occupied the Executive Mansion and the national radio station, with widespread support throughout the country. Three days later, Quiwonkpa's coup was overthrown. Government repression intensified, as Doe's troops killed more than 2,000 civilians and imprisoned more than 100 opposing politicians, including Jackson Doe and BBC journalist Isaac Bantu.
After that Liberia's history is beset with civil war and bloodshed with rival factions striving for power. More than 200000 people are estimated to have been killed in the civil wars.
End of hostilities
A peace movement called Women of Liberia Mass Action for Peace was instrumental to the end of hostilities. Organized by social worker Leymah Gbowee thousands of women staged silent protests and forced a meeting with President Charles Taylor and extracted a promise from him to attend peace talks in Ghana. Gbowee then led a delegation of Liberian women to Ghana to continue to apply pressure on the warring factions during the peace process. They staged a demonstration outside the Presidential Palace, blocking all the doors and windows and preventing anyone from leaving the peace talks without a resolution. The women of Liberia became a political force against violence and against their government. Their actions brought about an agreement during the unsuccessful peace talks. As a result, the women were able to achieve peace in Liberia after a 14-year civil war and later helped bring to power the country's first female head of state. Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, a Harvard economist and former Minister of Finance who had been jailed twice during the Doe administration before escaping and going into exile, became Liberia's first female President.
Conclusion
Liberia represents an attempt by the U.S. government to ‘liberate' and ‘repatriate' African slaves who had gained their freedom in America. The U.S. government did this fearing racialism and ostracization of black Americans by white Americans. However, history shows that the U.S. government's decision was unwise, in retrospect. Today, black and white Americans live together as equals without the slightest animosity whereas the black Americans sent to live in Liberia have seen years of civil war and bloodshed. Had they remained in America, they might have been much better off!
