Ware or members of the Robinson-Ware families.","The early letters were written to Susie from Ware's station at Empire, Panama at the beginning of what would become their extended separation. One letter describes this painful separation when Ware writes, \"I cannot explain the terrible agony of this separation and if I think of it I will go mad. Surely you know . . . you can never doubt my love.\" Typical letters reflect the difficulties of communication in a long-distance marriage and discuss family events like the birth of Joseph Ware Jr. and the loss of their second child soon after his birth. The separation took a toll on their relationship, as well. In one letter, he refers to a note previously written by Susie that compared being married to a man she never sees as being \"worse than a myth-not present or tangible but still a reality.\"","The letters from Europe are purposefully vague to abide by the military censorship standards of the time. As Ware tells Susie, \"my letters must all go through the Central Censor's Office so you must learn to read between the lines.\" Throughout the European letters, Ware gives us hints of the military life and his action \"in the trenches\". He makes mention of his many responsibilities and frequent travels as the Chief Signal Officer. Ware refers to himself as being known as \"the hardest-boiled officer in these forces.\" Ware contemplates resigning from the military when he bemoans that the \"services are run by politics.\" Ware captures the sentiment of many at the time when he writes, \"When I think of the many excellent men who did not come back, it seems that we have paid an awful price.\" This series is arranged chronologically.","Series II: Photographs has three subseries. Subseries A: Identified, contents identified by first name only with a few exceptions.

Ware was First Lieutenant of the 16th U. S. Infantry and was assigned the State Militia rank of Colonel. Ware was nicknamed \"Bald Knob\" in reference to his lack of hair.","Joseph Ware was born December 22, 1880 in Fort Monroe, Virginia from an Army family. He enrolled at Virginia Tech as a cadet and graduated in 1903. While a student at Virginia Tech, Ware excelled in sports and academics. He played both baseball and football and was an All-Southern end for the Gridmen. He was a cadet Lieutenant in the Artillery Battery, assistant manager of The Bugle, vice-president of the Athletic Association, and Captain of the baseball team and was voted \"Best All-Around Cadet.\"","After his tenure at VPI, Ware received a Second Lieutenant of Infantry commission in the Regular United States Army and served in the Philippines, Alaska, and Europe during World War I. In World War I, Ware served in three divisions: the 4th, 80th, and 83rd; two corps: the 3rd and the 9th; and two armies: the 1st and the 2nd. Ware received the position of Chief Signal Officer and the rank of Major. Ware was a part of the major American movements in France: Soissons, Chateau Thierry, St. Mihiel, the Argonne, and the push of the 2nd before Armistice Day. He received injuries from gas and shrapnel from fighting in the trenches and was recommended for the Distinguished Service Cross from the United States government. The French Ordre de 'lEtoile Noire awarded Ware the Legion of Honor and the Croix de Guerre.","Ware married Susana \"Susie\" Howe Robinson on October 29, 1914, at the Blacksburg Presbyterian Church in Blacksburg, Virginia. Susie gave birth to their son, Joseph Fulton Ware, Jr., in 1917. Joseph Ware, Jr. also attended Virginia Tech and received one of the first mechanical engineering degrees with an aeronautical option offered by Virginia Tech in 1937. Joseph Ware, Jr. subsequently received a master's degree from Cal Tech and spent his career as a flight test engineer at Lockheed Corporation.

He was a cadet Lieutenant in the Artillery Battery, assistant manager of The Bugle, vice-president of the Athletic Association, and Captain of the baseball team and was voted \"Best All-Around Cadet.\"","After his tenure at VPI, Ware received a Second Lieutenant of Infantry commission in the Regular United States Army and served in the Philippines, Alaska, and Europe during World War I. In World War I, Ware served in three divisions: the 4th, 80th, and 83rd; two corps: the 3rd and the 9th; and two armies: the 1st and the 2nd.

In 1887, Johnston was assigned to the Fish Commission Steamer USS Albatross, a research vessel. After three years on the Albatross, he was transferred to the Office of Naval Intelligence, where he served for a year, then served two years on the USS Concord. Promoted to lieutenant, junior grade in 1894, he spent the next few years under various assignments (the USS R. S.

He served a year aboard the Prairie as executive officer; then in quick succession, he served aboard the Vermont, the  Columbia, the Dolphin and the  Montgomery.","In 1902, Johnston was assigned as assistant to the U.

His command was transferred to the USS  Galveston in 1908. The following year, Johnston was assigned to Navy Yard Puget Sound, and in 1910, he became captain of the Navy Yard at Portsmouth, New Hampshire. The following year, Johnston was promoted to captain and placed in command of the USS Georgia. In 1913, Johnston attended a long course at the Naval War College. In 1914, he reported for duty as commandant of the New Orleans Navy Yard and Station, a post in which he served until 1917, when he was given command of a patrol force, and soon thereafter was placed in command of the Atlantic Fleet's Squadron 2, Cruiser Force, and promoted to rear admiral. From 1918 to 1921, he served as commandant of the 15th Naval District, adjacent to the Panama Canal Zone. In the latter year, Johnston became director of naval communications and president of the Naval Examining and Retiring Board, the post at which he served until his retirement in 1924.","A lifelong bachelor, Johnston by 1930 was living with his sister and brother-in-law, Rebecca and Robert Toombs in Randolph County, Georgia.

Half of the collection consists of Johnston's official naval records, including orders and personnel records, chronicling Johnston's assignments and promotions, beginning with his 1878 appointment as a cadet midshipman at the U. S. Naval Academy and ending with his retirement in 1924. Accompanying these personnel records is a brief chronology of Johnston's life and career.","Comprising the other half of the collection is a book draft by Johnston, titled \"The Recollections of Another Naval Officer.\" The draft chronicles in detail Johnston's personal experiences during his 40-plus years in the U.

A middle portion of the draft is in typescript form; the remainder is in Johnston's hand. Though the narrative touches on some of the larger issues facing the U. S. Navy during Johnston's years in service, the focus is largely on his personal experiences. As Johnston mentions in his introduction, \"Any one seeking a weighty article on the changes in the Navy, or a dissertation on the Sampson - Schley, Daniels Sims controversies may look elsewhere.\"","The collection also contains a photograph of the USS Indianapolis and a musical program from the HMS  Emperor of India.","The copyright status of this collection is unknown.

A middle portion of the draft is in typescript form; the remainder is in Johnston's hand. Though the narrative touches on some of the larger issues facing the U. S.
