Biogr~phical

Sketch

Born on January 9, 1895, in Chatfield, Texas, Truscott grew up there

and in Oklahoma.
From 1911 he was a teacher in various small schools
in Oklahoma.
On the entry of the United States into World War I in 1917 he enlisted
in the army, and af t.e r attending an officers' training camp in Arkansas
he was commissioned a reserve second lieutenant of cavalry in August
and commissioned in the regular cavalry and promoted to first lieutenant
in October.
From 1919 to 1921 he was stationed at Schofield Barracks, Hawaii,
advancing to captain in 1920, and from 1922 to 1925 he was with the
1st Cavalry at Camp Douglas, Arizona.
He graduated from the Cavalry
School, Fort Riley, Kansas, in.,1926 and, promoted to major, remained
there as an instructor for five years.
In 1931-1934 he was with 3rd Cavalry at Fort Myer, Virginia.
By 1936
he was a lieutenant colonel, and after his graduation from the Command
and General Staff School, Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, in that year he
again remained as an instructor.
In September 1940 he was assigned
to the 13th Armored Regiment at Fort Knox, Kentucky, and in July 1941
he was attached to the staff of the IX Corps area at Fort Lewis,
Washington.
Promoted to temporary colonel in December 1941, he was assigned in the
latter month to the Allied combined staff under Lord Louis Mountbatten.
After studying the training methods used by British commandos, he
recruited and trained a brigade of Rangers along the same lines, developing a small corps of tough, highly motivated shock troops. On August
19, 1942, he led his Rangers in a joint cross-Channel raid with
commandos on the French port of Dieppe, an action that cost heavy
casualties and taught vital lessons in amphibious techniques.
In November, promoted to temporary major general, he led a special task
force in the capture of Port Lyautey (now Kenitra), French Morocco,
from Vichy French forces during the Allied invasion of North Africa.
After a period as field deputy to General Dwight D. Eisenhower he took
command of the 3rd Infantry Division in March 1943. The 3rd landed
in Sicily on July 10 as part of General George S. Patton's Seventh
Army and led in the capture of Palermo and Messina. On September 18
it went ashore to reinforce the Allied beachhead at Salerno, Italy.

Biographical Sketch (continued)

On January 22, 1944, as part of the VI Corps under General John P.
Lucas, the 3rd Division assaulted the beach at Anzio.
In February
Truscott succeeded Lucas in command of the VI Corps. After withstanding
furious German counterattacks the VI Corps finally broke out of the
Anzio beachhead in May and drove toward Rome.
After rest and retraining, the VI Corps, then consisting of the
3rd, 36th, and 45th divisions, formed part of General Alexander
M. Patch's Seventh Army in the landings at St. Tropez and St. Raphael
on the French south coast on August 15. Promoted to temporary lieutenant
general in September, Truscott remained with the VI Corps until December,
when he returned to Italy to take command of the Fifjth Army from
General Mark W. Clark.
Under his command the Fifth, part Clark's
15th Army Group, launched a final major attack in the spring of 1945
across the Po valley, taking Bologna on April 21 and driving on until
the German surrender of May 2.
The Fifth Army was inactivated in
October 1945 and Truscott then succeeded General Patton in command
of the Third Army in occupation duty in Bavaria.
He returned to the
United States in May 1946 and retired from the army in October 1947.
In May 1951 he was named an adviser to the U.S. high commissioner
West Germany.
In 1954 he published Command Missions, and in July
that year he was given an honorary promotion to general, retired,
act of Congress. Truscott died in Washington, D.C., on September
1965.

Scope and

Conten~

The Lucian K. Truscott, Jr. Papers span the period 1937-1966.

There are two groups of papers: personal papers and military
records. The personal papers fall into several series:
correspondence,
financial records and related material.
The military records are
arranged by subgroups relating to phases of Truscott's army career:
European Theater of Operations Headquarters, Third Division, VI Corps,
Fifth Army, Third Army, and War Department Screening Board.
Within
each of these subgroups the documents fall into
several seri~s:
correspondence, radio messages, operations, memoranda and related
material. Also to be found are three series of memorabilia, clippings
and photographs which are mainly military in nature.
Little about Truscott's life prior to World War II can be found in
this collection.
The personal papers consist mostly of correspondence
from 1941 to 1953. Much of this corr.espondence is between Truscott
and his wife Sarah R. Truscott during the war years. Also to be
found is Mrs. Truscott's personal correspondence with family and
associates (excluding Lucian K. Truscott, Jr.).
In addition there
are letters of condolence written to the Truscott family on the
death of General Truscott.
Other material in the personal papers consists of trip narratives
written by Mrs. Truscott in 1951 and 1952 and diaries written by
both Truscotts from 1956 to 1965. These diaries are mostly summaries
of daily events with Mrs. Truscott's being more extensive than General
Truscott's.
Financial records round out the personal papers and
pertain almost exclusively to the purchase, renovation and sale of
the Bluemont Virginia f9'~J;>!' they owned from 1947 to 1951. The exception
to this is a ledger book ~f monthly accounts kept by Truscott from
1933 to 1941 and 1957 to 1965.
Truscott's military career is well documented in this collection.
A series of general correspondence precedes the career oriented
subgroups and consists of letters to and from some of the leading
figures of World ~var II.
Included are Omar Bradley, Jacob Devers,
Dwight D. Eisenhower, George C. Marshall, Thomas Handy, George S.
Patton and others.
This correspondence concerns both military
planning and personal matters. Also to be found are letters regarding
events Truscott attended and arrangements for a variety of visits.
Within each of the army career subgroups the material is much the
same.
There are orders, battle plans campaign reports, telephone
message summaries, minutes of meetings, memoranda and speeches.
Much of each subgroup concerns plans for operations including
TORCH, SLEDGEHAMMER, BOLERO, ANVIL, CRAFTSMAN, and DRAGOON.
Truscott's post war army career is also documented.
The Bavarian
occupation material is brief and similar to the above mentioned
material;
telephone transcripts, speeches and memos. Material from
the War bepartment Screening Board consists of correspondence and
reports as well as decisions made by the board.

and Content continued

From 1942 until June 1947 Truscott had his aides keep a dairy of daily
happenings.
These seven volumes are also included in the collection.
They provide a running commentary on Truscott's actions during battle
as well as stateside.
The remaining three series are memorabilia, clippings and photographs.
Among the memorabilia can be found an autograph book with an original
Bill Mauldin cartoon, a scrapbook containing reviews of andcongratulatory
about Truscott's Command Missio~~ and a variety of other items.
Clippings from major newspapers document Truscott's promotions and
military maneuvers.
These have been arranged by phases of his career.
The photographs are of both family and friends as well as places
Truscott visited or was stationed dud.ng the war.
There is a large
group of negatives documenting Truscott's various pre-war stations
including Douglas & Tombstone; Schofield Barracks; and Marfa, Texas.
A large number of maps have been separated from the collection and
stored separately.
Included are battle maps for Italy and North Africa,
silk maps of Italy and Europe, and road maps.
