Colleges Wednesday, Apr 09, 2003 Recruiting Posted on Mon, Feb. 03, 2003 Road to USC starts at Georgia Military By JOSEPH PERSON Staff Writer Milledgeville, Ga There's no easy way to get to Milledgeville. Georgia's former capital sits at least a half-hour from any interstate in the middle of the Peach State, accessible only by lonely, two-lane roads that are hogged by lumber trucks. Funny, though, after two years of marching, uniforms, "yes sirs" and "no sirs" at Georgia Military College in the center of town, the school's football players know the quick way out of Milledgeville. And recently many of them have pointed their cars toward Columbia and gunned it. The privately funded junior college has become something of a branch campus of South Carolina, its battalions dotted with young men who dream not of a future military career, but of football greatness with the Gamecocks.

The Capers Building will close its doors in early fall for the move, which will take about six weeks. Work to the exterior of the new building is complete. Interior finish work is now going on, with wooden display shelving and desks being installed in the new Search Room, office furniture being assembled throughout the building, and final wiring and sheetrocking. The new library will provide research space for at least 140 people, close to four times the current space. There will also be easier access to the non-archival collections, as researchers will be allowed to browse and retrieve items for themselves from approximately 25,000 volumes of published works and 30,000 rolls of microfilm. MDAH Phone Prefixes to Change With Move The Department of Archives and History will have a new phone prefix to go along with the move. At the onset of the move, all MDAH numbers currently beginning with the 359 prefix will switch to 576. The final four digits will remain unchanged.

One of the biggest citizens of this federal city is the U.S. Navy, particularly Navy oceanography. With about 1,800 military, civil service and contract employees, nearly half of the workers at Stennis are with the Navy. And with $155 million in direct economic impact within a 50-mile radius of Stennis, the Navy has a big footprint in southeast Louisiana and South Mississippi. The Navy has five different activities at Stennis - the headquarters of the Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command, the Naval Oceanographic Office, a detachment of the Naval Research Laboratory, the Human Resources Service Center Southeast, and Special Boat Unit 22. The Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command is a worldwide organization with about 3,000 sailors and civilians at about 60 activities. The headquarters staff has about 70 military and civilian workers. The command, headed by an admiral, is charged with describing weather and ocean conditions to keep ships and people safe at sea, to help ensure successful military operations and to help design and deploy weapons systems.

Florida Military Bases Northwest Florida Historically, Pensacola has always been a strategic naval post. During the war, Naval Air Station Pensacola was an important training base for U.S. and Allied naval aviators. Panama City was the site of a naval amphibious training base, as well as a base for the Civil Air Patrol and the location of Wainwright Shipyards. Tyndall Army Air Field, at Panama City, was used for gunnery training for Army bomber crews. Eglin Army Air Field and its ten auxiliary fields provided a proving ground for the Army Air Corps. It was at Eglin that Colonel James Doolittle trained his men for the raid on Tokyo. Dale Mabry Army Air Field in Tallahassee, at the current location of Tallahassee Community College, was a training site for the famed Tuskeegee Airmen. The Army established Camp Gordon Johnston as an amphibious warfare training base at Carabelle. Infantry and Airborne infantry units were trained there for amphibious operations in Europe and the Pacific. General Omar Bradley's 28th Infantry Division also trained at Carabelle. The base was highly unpopular with many of the soldiers who trained there. They complained about the quarters, the mosquitoes, and the sand and wrote poems and songs mocking their rations and living conditions. Bradley himself complained that "The man who selected that site should have been court-martialed for stupidity."

The Mississippi Symphony As 1944 dawned, the course of World War II was turning in the Allies’ favor. On the home front, Jackson’s population of 70,000 coped with the rationing of sugar, shoes, gasoline and tires. But wartime restrictions couldn’t dampen the city’s exuberant enthusiasm for art, theatre, dance and music. Among Jackson’s favorite music makers was Maurice Thompson, choir director at First Christian Church and leader of the Rebel Male Chorus. In February 1944, Thompson’s chorus sang a concert at Belhaven College accompanied by a small volunteer orchestra. Thompson had recruited instrumentalists and called upon a dance bandleader, Haldine Strain, to prepare them for the concert. In the audience that night was Gordon Marks, First Christian leader and advertising agency executive who had assisted Thompson by raising $100 for music and by securing rehearsal space in the church.

Home Encyclopedia Summa Fathers ... M > Mississippi A B C D ... Z Mississippi TOPOGRAPHY It contains no mountains, but there is a decided difference of levels between the alluvial lands lying between the Mississippi and Yazoo Rivers and the other sections of the state, which may be generally characterized as the uplands of the state. The latter comprises approximately five-sixths of the entire area of the state, constituting a plateau of an undulating character, the level of which gently descends in a general southerly direction to the coast. Its general elevation above the level of the Gulf of Mexico near the coast-line is about 150 feet, and the middle northern and north-eastern portions are from about 150 to 500 and 600 feet above the level of the Gulf of Mexico. The drainage on the west is the Mississippi River and its principal tributaries the Yazoo, Tallahatchie, Coldwater, Sunflower, Big Black, and Womochitto Rivers; in the middle part the Pearl, which empties into Lake Borgne, and in the eastern part, the Tombigbee River, the Chicksawha River, and the Escatawpa River, and in the south the Wolf, Pascagoula, Biloxie, Abolochitto, and Catahoula Rivers. The upland sections of the state are undulating, and successive ridges divide the area between the water courses. The north-eastern portion contains a large area of prairie formation which overlies a cretaceous sub-stratum, commonly known as rotten limestone. The middle comprises a large area of uplands with a sub-stratum of clay formation. The southern portion is generally sandy and loamy. The Yazoo-Mississippi Delta constitutes the cotton-producing region of the state, the finest and most fertile cotton lands in the world, not excepting the valleys of the Nile and the Ganges. It begins at the Tennessee line and follows on its eastern boundary a line of hills or bluffs to Vicksburg, and is bounded on the west by the Mississippi River. It lies low and its general average level is not higher than the high-water level of the Mississippi.

MISSISSIPPI HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Jackson, Mississippi House Information Office April 2001 Contact: Mac Gordon, HIGHLIGHTS OF 2001 LEGISLATIVE SESSION One of the first acts by the 2001 Legislature was to set April 17 as the date for citizens to choose between the current state flag and a proposed new design for that banner. The Legislature also officially adopted the current state coat of arms. One new member joined the House of Representatives in January - John W. Hines of Greenville, who won a special election to fill the unexpired term of Rep. Jimmy Thornton, who died in late 2000. At session's end, there were 86 Democrats, 33 Republicans and three Independents comprising the House of Representatives. This included 106 men and 16 women; 87 whites and 35 African-Americans. Like most sessions of the Legislature, a handful of issues dominated the headlines. More than 3,000 bills were introduced during the session, but less than one-third will become law between July 1, 2001, and Jan. 1, 2002. Here's a snapshot view of some of the higher profile issues: K-12 PUBLIC EDUCATION Teacher pay.
