The Black Wolf Squadron was one of the earliest units within the U.S. Army Air Service. In 1920, the Squadron was selected to make the first long-distance flight outside of the contiguous United States. Nome, Alaska, was selected as the destination because the assistant chief of the Air Service was General Billy Mitchell, who had served in Alaska during construction of the Washington-Alaska Military Cable and Telegraph System (WAMCATS). The four DeHavilland DH-4 biplanes, painted with the black profile of a wolf's head against a white background, left Mitchel Field, Long Island, New York on July 15, 1920. The Squadron arrived in Nome on August 24, 1920, landing on the parade grounds at Fort Davis, an abandoned Army post. After a brief stay, the crew, led by Capt. St. Clair Street, returned via the same route, arriving at Mitchel Field on October 20, 1920. In total, the expedition flew 9,000 miles in 112 flying hours without serious incident. The trip was the first military flight in Alaska and helped to pioneer an air route connecting Alaska to the Lower 48.

The United States War Department, or the War Office, was established in 1789. The department was originally responsible for the combined armed forces of the United States, though over time individual branches of the service were separated into their own departments.

John Caldwell Calhoun (1782-1850) was born in South Carolina to Patrick and Martha Caldwell Calhoun. He graduated from Yale College in 1804, after which he studied law. He won a seat in the United States House of Representatives in 1810, a position he held until 1817, when he resigned to accept an appointment as the secretary of war under President James Monroe. He ran in the 1824 presidential election, but lost to John Quincy Adams; he was instead elected as vice-president. He resigned the vice-presidency in 1832 and joined the Senate. He served until 1843, then he became the Secretary of State under President John Tyler as a replacement for Abel Upshur. Calhoun held the position until the end of Tyler's term in 1845, at which point he returned to the Senate, where he served until his death.

The United States Department of War was created through action of the Constitutional Convention of 1787 as outlined in the U.S. Constitution which went into effect in 1789.

The act of August 7, 1789, that established the War Department provided that the Secretary of War should have custody of all books and papers in the office of the Secretary at War, who had headed the Department of War created in 1781 by the Continental Congress. These books and papers included the records of the Board of War, which had administered military affairs from 1776 to 1781. Most of these records were destroyed by fire on November 8, 1800. When Government buildings in Washington were burned in August 1814 by British soldiers, the War Department's remaining records for the Revolutionary War period were in a fireproof room and were not damaged by the flames. It was subsequently reported, however, that many of them had been destroyed or carried away by persons who entered the room after the fire. As a result there were, until 1873, few records for the period before 1789 in War Department custody.

In 1873 Secretary of War William Belknap purchased the Pickering Papers for the War Department. This private collection consisted of papers of Timothy Pickering, who between 1777 and 1785 had been a member of the Board of War, Adjutant General of the Continental Army, and Quartermaster General; the papers of Samuel Hodgdon, Commissary General of Military Stores for several years during the war; and miscellaneous contemporary papers. Belknap also obtained some minor groups of records and single records items for the Department during his tenure. In 1888, however, the War Department collection of Revolutionary War records was transferred to the State Department, which was considering the possibility of publishing the Government archives for the Revolutionary War period.

The War Department established in 1889 a Record and Pension Division--called the Record and Pension Office--to take charge of the records of past U.S. volunteer armies. The purpose of this Office was to increase the efficiency with which military service statements were being provided to the Commissioner of Pensions of the Interior Department. To achieve this purpose Col. Fred C. Ainsworth, Chief of the Record and Pension Office, attempted to have transferred to the War Department all Revolutionary War records from other Government departments. Although he did not succeed in having all such records transferred, the Congress in 1892 and 1894 did authorize transfer to the War Department of all military records for the Revolutionary War period then in the custody of other executive departments. These military records were transferred between 1894 and 1913 from Interior Department pension files, Treasury Department auditors' records, and State Department records including the Pickering Papers and some Continental Army returns that had once belonged to George Washington.

In 1909 Henry G. Pickering, great-grandson of Timothy Pickering, gave to the War Department through the Quartermaster General a number of record books, mostly relating to supply and pay accounts. In 1924 and 1915, under authority of an act of March 2, 1913, the Department made photographic copies of Revolutionary War records in the custody of public and private institutions in Virginia, North Carolina and Massachusetts to supplement its original record holdings.

The Pacific Division, established in 1848 and consisting of the territories of California and Oregon, was under the command of E.A. Hitchcock, a West Point graduate, career army officer, and author, from July, 1851, to Feb., 1854.

During his tenure, Brevet Brig. Gen. Hitchcock dealt with San Francisco vigilante groups, established new army posts, acted to quell Indian uprisings along California's southern border with Mexico, and broke up William Walker's filibustering expedition against Sonora, Mexico.

In compliance with the Treaty of 1837, all Winnebago Indians residing in Wisconsin were to remove across the Mississippi. In February of 1840, Gen. Henry Atkinson was ordered by the War Dept. to take charge of the operation.

Finding that the Winnebago were afraid to live near the Sauks in Iowa, Atkinson held a council May 1-2 in Prairie du Chien with the recalcitrant chiefs in which he promised military protection for the tribe at the Turkey River site. Atkinson also warned that there would be no annuities or provisions until the bands assembled at Prairie-du-Chien for the move and that force would be used if necessary. Despite the continued objections of the Portage bands, the move was accomplished peacefully by June 3.

Between 1803 and 1809 various Indian tribes in Indiana Territory (present day Indiana and Illinois) signed treaties with the federal government.

During this period, William Henry Harrison served as Governor and Superintendent of Indian Affairs in Indiana Territory. From the territorial seat at Vincennes, Harrison obtained the cessation of millions of acres of Indian land. In exchange for ceded lands, the tribes were placed under the care and protection of the government.

John Stagg, Jr. (1758-1803) served as a captain and lieutenant in the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War, and was also General George Washington's private secretary at Valley Forge, PA. Following the War, Stagg was a clerk in the U.S. War Office for eight years, and was elected sheriff of New York City in 1801.
