	Kemp Tolley - Muse of the Yangtze River Rats

		Admiral Tolley's experiences in China before World War II provide the foundation for his book relating to the Yangtze Patrol and the between wars politics of China.
		Retiring in 1959, Tolley and his wife Vlada, whom he met, wooed and married in the Soviet Union, have spent retirement at the family home near Monkton, Maryland, where he carpenters, gardens, wrote four books plus numerous journal articles, plays acey-ducey with colleagues and canoes on the local Gunpowder River.

	Midshipman Tolley (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Tolley was born in Manila’s Army hospital in 1908, when his father, Army Lieutenant Colonel Oscar Kemp "O.K." Tolley, was on his second tour of duty in the Philippines.
		Kemp had spent most of his summers on the Little Gunpowder River near Monkton, swimming, fishing, canoeing, or doing something on the water, so he was delighted to see the midshipmen in cutters, some under sail, some being rowed.
		Tolley and his brother youngsters shoveled coal in the fire rooms, swabbed decks, scrubbed the paint work, and did everything but mess cook, which was done by Filipinos who had accompanied them from the Academy.

	Alibris: Kemp
		As Kemp shares his enthusiasm for the creativity and wisdom of Dr. Seuss, both the meaning and relevance of many Bible passages come to life.
		In this entertaining history of the Yangtze Patrol, Tolley gives a lively presentation of the Chinese political situation over the past century and describes the bombing of the Panay, the siege of Shanghai, the battle of Wanhsien, and the Nanking incident.
		Kemp finds in Ruskin's life -- which spanned the same years as Queen Victoria's and thus embodied the Victorian era itself -- a faithful mirror of the history and psychological evolution of his age.

		Built some years before the 1900s, the 87-foot vessel was, Tolley recalled, bought by "a group of wealthy Manila businessmen" for recreation.
		In the book, Tolley shared "memories of the good things and the funny things and the heroic things" that they, especially the Filipino crewmen, did.
		Tolley soon began calling the ship the "Lucky Lanikai." It remained intact, its guns supporting the attack of the Japanese headed for Corregidor Island.

	Bruce Bartlett Opinion Editorial: Justice for Pearl Harbor Commanders
		And just days before Pearl Harbor, Roosevelt personally ordered three small Navy ships into the path of a Japanese naval task force in hopes of triggering an attack.
		Although this last effort failed, the leader of the mission, Admiral Kemp Tolley, had no doubt that his job was to provoke war.
		One can perhaps defend Roosevelt's actions as required to get American into a necessary war that the people were too myopic to support.
