  John Bernard MacKey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Bernard MacKey was an Australian recipient of the Victoria Cross, the highest and most prestigious award for gallantry in the face of the enemy that can be awarded to British and Commonwealth forces.
On 12 May 1945 at Tarakan Island, North Borneo, Corporal Mackey led his men along a very narrow spur where it was almost impossible to move to a flank.
The section came under fire from three well-sited enemy positions, but Corporal Mackey went ahead, charging his first position, wrestling with and killing one of the enemy and he then rushed a heavy machine-gun post, killing the crew.

Corporal Mackey was in charge of a section of the 2/3rd Australian Pioneer Battalion in the attack on the feature known as Helen, East of Tarakan town.
Led by Corporal Mackey the section moved along a narrow spur with scarcely width for more than one man when it came under fire from three well-sited positions near the top of a very steep, razor-backed ridge.
By his exceptional bravery and complete disregard for his own life, Corporal Mackey was largely responsible for the killing of seven Japanese and the elimination of two machine-gun posts, which enabled his platoon to gain its objective, from which the Company continued to engage the enemy.

In 1735, this Lodge received a Patent or Deputation from the Grand Lodge of England, John Cornelius Rademaker being appointed Provincial Grand Master, and several Daughter Lodges were established by it.
General John Sullivan was elected the first Grand Master and the name chosen for the new body was "The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of the Ancient and Honorable Fraternity of Free and Accepted Masons of the State of New Hampshire."

In 1984 John Winton, author of The Victoria Cross at Sea, (1979), had acknowledged that his story of James Gorman VC published in this book although written to the best of his knowledge at that time, was complete codswallop.
In Australia assistance has come from Anthony Staunton, of the Military Historical Society of Australia, and Peter Vanderfield of Kirribilli, NSW both of whom for a number of years have believed that James Devereux who had been credited by British historians as having been awarded the Victoria Cross was not James Gorman VC.
Sergeant John Park VC and Private Alexander Wright VC, of the 77th Regiment of the British Army, were in fact the first recipients of the Victoria Cross to set foot in Australia, they arrived in mid 1857.

In the introduction to his valuable New York School anthology, John Bernard Myers remarked upon the effect of Guest’s airy poetics on her readers, arguing that “the very rhythm of her lines implies a quicker breathing” (25).
John Ashbery picked up on this theme even earlier than Myers, telling Guest in a 1960 letter that he had located in her verse “quite a few currents of air which are very refreshing to breathe.

In the olden times it was under the control of a board of trustees, but when the law of 1836 became operative, it was transferred to the school directors, and is still used for educational purposes.
Under the act of 1804 school trustees were elected in Upper Darby, in 1825; their powers, however, could in nowise include the control of the contribution school of 1779.
On May 18, 1825, at the election then held, Oborn Levis, Thomas and John Sellers, Jr., were chosen trustees for the township, the duties of which offce, so far as we have information, must have rested with ease on the shoulders of those who bore the offcial honors.

Cornwell's fourth novel about Nathaniel Starbuck, a Northerner in the Confederate Army, carries this Civil War saga to Antietam, which ruined Robert E. Lee's attempt to carry the war to the North.
Let's face it, Bernard Cornwell is one of my favorite novelists/raconteurs, but his go at the ACW is not up to his Napoleonic novels (SHARPE of course...), but neither to his masterwork (The Warlord Chronicles - ARTHURIAN TRILOGY)...
If we are indeed treated to a continuation of the series, I hope that Bernard Cornwell will give a little more historical truth to the South's cause and its soldiers.

John Latta is the author of Breeze (University of Notre Dame Press, 2003) and Rubbing Torsos (Ithaca House, 1979).
To say Mackey’s writing proceeds “like jazz” or “like the blues” is probably too easy—though there are plenty-plenty aspects of that that align straight out along a musical tangent.
Mackey adds the fatback of African, Creole, Haitian traditions into the musical stew, and gums it all together (okra-ingredient) with grand nonchalant dollops of capital T, Theory, out of its glory years, circa 1966-1989.
