The Galloping Ghost (41 page)

PART THREE:
Most of the material for this section comes from personal records of Admiral Fluckey and reflections of those who knew or worked with him. Additional sources are as follows.

NIMITZ:
The rivalry between the Army and Navy during World War II and its aftermath are discussed in Dean C. Allard, “Interservice Differences in the United States, 1945–1950: A Naval Perspective,”
Aerospace Power Journal
(Winter 1989). An excellent mini-biography of Fleet Adm. Chester William Nimitz is available through the Naval Historical Center at
www.history.navy.mil/faqs/faq36-4.htm
. Admiral Fluckey wrote of the Nimitzes' visit to his home with humorous consequences in Fluckey's “The Nimitzes Call,”
Naval History
(Spring 1988). Additional reflections by Admiral Fluckey when he was Nimitz's aide can be found in Admiral Nimitz's oral history on file at the Nimitz Library; Admiral Fluckey contributed his recollections to that history in an interview by John T. Mason Jr. in 1971 in Portugal.

THE FLUCKEY FACTOR and FLAG OFFICER:
Vice Adm. William R. Smedberg's oral history, vol. 2, on file at the Nimitz Library, covers the fund drive to build a football stadium at the academy and Captain Fluckey's involvement in that drive (pp. 527–34).

BOOMERS:
Admiral Fluckey's daring swim in twenty-foot waves to the submarine
Plunger
to evaluate SubRoc missile tests is recounted in detail in “Admiral—by Choice—Is All Wet,”
Honolulu Advertiser
(25 March 1965, p. A-9).

SINTRA:
A summation of the threat to NATO posed by the Russian military came from NATO's online library found at
www.nato.int/docu/com/49-95/c68115a.htm
. Additional information came from Adm. Elmo R. Zumwalt Jr., “Where Russian Threat Keeps Growing,”
U.S. News & World Report
(13 September 1971, pp. 72–77). The history of NATO's IBERLANT headquarters is found at
www.jc-lisb.nato.int/history.htm
.

EPILOGUE: IN HIS LIGHT:
The Revolution of the Carnations is detailed in Blauer and Laure's
Portugal
(previously cited).
