His parents were Russian\nImmigrants who spoke Russian, Yiddish, and English in his household. He had three brothers\nWilliam, Abraham, and Joseph, as well as one sister, Marion. His family subsisted below the poverty\nline for most his childhood. Jack was working at the Frankford Arsenal in Philadelphia manufacturing ammunition when he was drafted into the U.S. Army on October 10, 1942. He entered the Army Specialized Training Progam at the University of St. Louis from July 20, 1943 until March 16, 1944. He held various assignments within the Continental United States until he was shipped overseas to the European Theater of Operations with the 324th Infantry Regiment, 44th Infantry Division, as a Squad Leader (E-5, Sergeant) of a light weapons squad. He landed in France with the Division on September 15, 1944 and participated in campaigns in France and Germany, eventually earning five \"battle stars,\"  the Combat Infantry Badge, and a Bronze Star Medal.\n \nIt was during his time in France that Rifkin acquired most of his war souvenirs. He was involved in\noperations that freed French Freedom Fighters from German POW camps.  Most of the German\ndecorations and badges were taken from German Prisoners of War. The Walther PP pistol in this collection was given to Rifkin by the Free French in appreciation for their liberation. Rifkin served as part of the American forces that occupied Germany immediately after the war ended in Europe.  Upon departure from France, all of the soldiers were told they were forbidden to bring guns to the United States as war  souvenirs. A warning was issued that stated anyone caught with weapons in their seabag would be detained from departing on the ship returning to the United States.  Hundreds of weapons were voluntarily removed from seabags and placed on the dock. Jack refused to go along, and took his chances due to the high regard he had for the Walther pistol. The warning was a bluff. No searches were conducted, and thus he successfully brought the weapon home.\n \nAfter discharge, Jack met and married Marilyn Weiner in Philadelphia on October 12, 1947. After\nexperiencing some health related issues, Jack and Marilyn moved to Miami, Florida in the early\n1950's. They had a daughter (Roberta) on December 25, 1956 and a son (Donald) on May 25,\n1960. Marilyn remained a homemaker her entire life. Jack was a salesman of building supplies to Cynaman Bros. Construction. He and Marilyn retired to Pompano Beach from Miami, where he enjoyed fishing from the Pompano Beach fishing pier three days a week. Marilyn passed away at the age of 66 in 1993 from a stroke in Pompano Beach. FL. They were married 47 years. Jack remained active\nin his retirement until he was debilitated by a stroke.  His daughter Roberta had him transferred\nto a hospice facility near her home in Georgia where he passed away six months later from his illness on June 29, 2002 in Riverside, GA.","Transferred from the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience to FSU Libraries Special Collections \u0026 Archives in July 2022.","This collection relates to Sergeant Jack Rifkin who served with the 324th Infantry Regiment, 44th Infantry Division, in the European Theater of Operations during World War II.

Three years later, the first Ph.D. graduated in Napoleonic history from FSU.\n  Dr. Horward was awarded the Distinguished Professorship in Military History at West Point and  taught  over  6,000  cadets  there.

Dr. Weider also established a chair in the French Revolution and four scholarships for the study of Napoleon  at  FSU.  Soon thereafter, Baron  Roger Jomini,  descendent  of Napoleon's famous strategist, contributed funds  for  student scholarships. Dr. Proctor Jones provided substantial support for student grants to do research in Paris,and generous scholarships were established by Dr.Skip Vichnessand  Dr.George  Knight, graduatesof the Napoleonic program  at  FSU.\n  For  his  work  in  the  Napoleonic period,  Dr. Horward  was  decorated  by the  French, American,  and  Portuguese and recognized  by  the  Czech  Republic  and  Spanish governments.  He waselected to the  Portuguese Academy of History in1991 and named a Grand Officer of theOrder  of Infante  Dom Henrique (Prince Henry the Navigator).  In 2001, he was honored  by the  Napoleonic Alliance as the first John Elting Scholar \"for his extraordinary contributions to the study of Napoleonic History.\"  He received  the Renaissance  Francaise  Award in 2010, but his most distinguished award was given by France, The Legion of Honor,  in full ceremony at West  Point in 2002.\n  Much of the current research on Napoleon in the United States has been carried out by Dr. Horward's former students.This is closely related to his success in amassing the volumes of the Napoleon Collection at  FSU and his influential role in sustaining and expanding the Consortium on Revolutionary Europe. In addition to the thousands of  students he has taught in his graduate and  undergraduate classes at FSU,  the U.S.Military Academy at  West  Point, and other universities, his former students have introduced thousands of their students throughout the United States to the Napoleonic era.\n  After 44 years of distinguished service, Dr. Horward retired in 2005. The Institute and its students, the Napoleon and French Revolution Collection, the Ben Weider Endowment opportunities, and a series of other fellowships comprise a rich legacy - one that Florida State University is proud to share with its community of scholars.\n The Napoleon and French Revolution Collection at Florida State University \nThe creation and growth of the French Revolution and Napoleon Collection at Florida State University was a direct result of Dr. Horward's efforts. In 1961 there were some 250 volumes in the collection. As a result of his 28 trips to Europe doing research  and searching for books, as of late 2012 the collection includes over 20,000 volumes, some from collections as those of King Ernest August of Hanover and Achille Murat, King of Naples. It is among the most extensive in the country. The Collection attracts students and scholars from through the U.S. and Europe.\n  Of the 48 Ph.D.s and 52 M.A.s based primarily on the Napoleon and French Revolution Collection at FSU,as of late 2012, 42 books have been published and almost a thousand articles have been produced in scholarly journals.  Doctoral students who have completed their research in the Napoleon Collection have taught at scores of universities and colleges from California  to  New York.  Six of their volumes have been awarded the International  Book Prize of the International Napoleonic Society for the  best book published in Napoleonic history in a particular year.\n  The Collection has provided the basic research and degrees for fifteen officers who have taught Military Art and Napoleonic history at theUnited States Military Academy,West Point. Many have taught at the US Command and Staff College at Fort Levenworth, Kansas, the Army Command College at the Von BraunCenter, Huntsville, Alabama, the Naval Post Graduate School at Monterey, California, the Naval War College at Newport, Rhode Island, and the Air ForceCommand  and StaffCollege in Montgomery,  Alabama.  Others have occupied senior command positions in Rome, Afghanistan, Iraq,and South Korea as well as throughout the United States. In addition, the Napoleon Collection has proved to be a significant source of strategic, logistical, and tactical  information for officers who taught tens of thousandsof cadets at West Point.\n  Scholars from throughout the United States and Europe have traveled to FSU to work in the Napoleon Collection to complete their research, contributing to hundreds of publications. Inaddition, the Collection became the basis of  the  most  complete  bibliography on Napoleon and the French Revolution that exist in any language by one of our graduates. Oneof Dr. Horward's students, Major Mike Bonura, published a  volume with NYU Press in 2012 , Under theShadow of Napoleon , which traces  the extraordinary impact the Napoleonic system of  War has had upon the American military system, from President Thomas Jefferson to the onslaught of the Nazi Blitzkrieg in 1940.\n \nNote written by Burt Altman, C.A., University Librarian/Archivist","General Jean-Jacques-Germain Pelet-Clozeau Papers, Special Collections \u0026 Archives, Florida State University Libraries, Tallahassee, Florida.  http://purl.fcla.edu/fsu/MSS_94-3","The Donald D.

Three years later, the first Ph.D. graduated in Napoleonic history from FSU.\n  Dr. Horward was awarded the Distinguished Professorship in Military History at West Point and  taught  over  6,000  cadets  there. He also held  the  Edwin Conquest  Eminent Scholar Chair at Virginia Military Institute and taught hundreds of cadets in Lexington.He has written or contributed over  twenty  volumes  and  almost  sixty articles in scholarly journals, delivered  over 200  papers  and  throughout  the  U.S.and  Europe,  and  his contributions have been recognized by decorations from six countries.\n  A total of 101 doctorates and M.A. theses were completed under Dr. Horward's direction, making FSU the most prolific center for the study of Napoleon in the U.S. A unique aspect of the Institute program has been its relationship with the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.  Seventeen officers, destined for the history faculty at West Point, have been trained in the Napoleonic period at the Institute.  This is particularly appropriate since a large segment of the Military Art Course, required of all cadets, focuses on Napoleon and his system of operations.\n  Dr. Horward was the recipient of the first university-wide teaching award, and received five additional awards for excellence in teaching, including the title of Distinguished Teaching Professor.  He lectured at universities throughout the U.S., the Smithsonian on several occasions, and gave presentations in Europe at such universities as Frederick Schiller University in Germany, Charles University and Masaryk Universities in the Czech Republic, Cambridge University and Southampton University in England, the University of Budapest in Hungary, and the Borodino/Mazajsk Center, Russia.\n  In 1998, Dr. Ben Weider established at Florida State University the first chair devoted to the Napoleonic period in the U.S. and Dr. Horward was designated as the first chair holder. Dr. Weider also established a chair in the French Revolution and four scholarships for the study of Napoleon  at  FSU.  Soon thereafter, Baron  Roger Jomini,  descendent  of Napoleon's famous strategist, contributed funds  for  student scholarships. Dr. Proctor Jones provided substantial support for student grants to do research in Paris,and generous scholarships were established by Dr.Skip Vichnessand  Dr.George  Knight, graduatesof the Napoleonic program  at  FSU.\n  For  his  work  in  the  Napoleonic period,  Dr. Horward  was  decorated  by the  French, American,  and  Portuguese and recognized  by  the  Czech  Republic  and  Spanish governments.  He waselected to the  Portuguese Academy of History in1991 and named a Grand Officer of theOrder  of Infante  Dom Henrique (Prince Henry the Navigator).  In 2001, he was honored  by the  Napoleonic Alliance as the first John Elting Scholar \"for his extraordinary contributions to the study of Napoleonic History.\"  He received  the Renaissance  Francaise  Award in 2010, but his most distinguished award was given by France, The Legion of Honor,  in full ceremony at West  Point in 2002.\n  Much of the current research on Napoleon in the United States has been carried out by Dr. Horward's former students.This is closely related to his success in amassing the volumes of the Napoleon Collection at  FSU and his influential role in sustaining and expanding the Consortium on Revolutionary Europe. In addition to the thousands of  students he has taught in his graduate and  undergraduate classes at FSU,  the U.S.Military Academy at  West  Point, and other universities, his former students have introduced thousands of their students throughout the United States to the Napoleonic era.\n  After 44 years of distinguished service, Dr. Horward retired in 2005. The Institute and its students, the Napoleon and French Revolution Collection, the Ben Weider Endowment opportunities, and a series of other fellowships comprise a rich legacy - one that Florida State University is proud to share with its community of scholars.\n The Napoleon and French Revolution Collection at Florida State University \nThe creation and growth of the French Revolution and Napoleon Collection at Florida State University was a direct result of Dr. Horward's efforts. In 1961 there were some 250 volumes in the collection. As a result of his 28 trips to Europe doing research  and searching for books, as of late 2012 the collection includes over 20,000 volumes, some from collections as those of King Ernest August of Hanover and Achille Murat, King of Naples. It is among the most extensive in the country. The Collection attracts students and scholars from through the U.S. and Europe.\n  Of the 48 Ph.D.s and 52 M.A.s based primarily on the Napoleon and French Revolution Collection at FSU,as of late 2012, 42 books have been published and almost a thousand articles have been produced in scholarly journals.  Doctoral students who have completed their research in the Napoleon Collection have taught at scores of universities and colleges from California  to  New York.  Six of their volumes have been awarded the International  Book Prize of the International Napoleonic Society for the  best book published in Napoleonic history in a particular year.\n  The Collection has provided the basic research and degrees for fifteen officers who have taught Military Art and Napoleonic history at theUnited States Military Academy,West Point. Many have taught at the US Command and Staff College at Fort Levenworth, Kansas, the Army Command College at the Von BraunCenter, Huntsville, Alabama, the Naval Post Graduate School at Monterey, California, the Naval War College at Newport, Rhode Island, and the Air ForceCommand  and StaffCollege in Montgomery,  Alabama.  Others have occupied senior command positions in Rome, Afghanistan, Iraq,and South Korea as well as throughout the United States. In addition, the Napoleon Collection has proved to be a significant source of strategic, logistical, and tactical  information for officers who taught tens of thousandsof cadets at West Point.\n  Scholars from throughout the United States and Europe have traveled to FSU to work in the Napoleon Collection to complete their research, contributing to hundreds of publications. Inaddition, the Collection became the basis of  the  most  complete  bibliography on Napoleon and the French Revolution that exist in any language by one of our graduates. Oneof Dr. Horward's students, Major Mike Bonura, published a  volume with NYU Press in 2012 , Under theShadow of Napoleon , which traces  the extraordinary impact the Napoleonic system of  War has had upon the American military system, from President Thomas Jefferson to the onslaught of the Nazi Blitzkrieg in 1940.\n \nNote written by Burt Altman, C.A., University Librarian/Archivist"],"prefercite_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eDonald D.

In 1961 there were some 250 volumes in the collection. As a result of his 28 trips to Europe doing research\u0026#xA0; and searching for books, as of late 2012 the collection includes over 20,000 volumes, some from collections as those of King Ernest August of Hanover and Achille Murat, King of Naples. It is among the most extensive in the country.

This event marked the beginning of the United States Maritime Service Training Station (USMSTS) in St. Petersburg, Florida. From late 1939 until 1941, the Maritime Service ships resided at the Coast Guard base while construction of the training station took place. Dedicated in July 1941, the USMSTS became an active training center during the war years. Until decommissioned in early 1950, this site served as one of the largest training facilities for the Merchant Marine along the southern coast of the United States. Thousands of Maritime Service graduates who had trained on ships such as the Joseph Conrad, Tusitala, Vigil, American Seaman, and American Sailor later carried supplies to armed forces during the Second World War and played other essential roles in supporting convoys and protecting shipments.","Mariners had served with honor since the earliest days of the United States, with privateers and merchant marines assisting the Continental Navy during the American Revolution. During times of war and peace, these sailors transported cargo, guarded shipments, and assisted members of\nthe Armed Forces with logistical operations. The United States Congress authorized the creation of a United States Maritime Service through the Merchant Marine Act of 1936. Two years later, President Franklin D. Roosevelt established the U.S. Maritime Service (USMS) in an effort to\nprepare for possible wartime hostilities.","Approximately 25,000 young adults trained at the Bayboro Harbor facility between early 1940 and 31 March 1950. Many young men between the ages of 17½ and 35 arrived during America's involvement in the Second World War. Along with waves of over 120,000 U.S. Army Air Corps recruits and other service personnel, the USMS trainees stayed at hotels such as the Soreno and Vinoy, as well as in the barracks that later became part of USF St. Petersburg ('B' building) until demolished in March 1992. Cadets faced a rigorous five-week preliminary training session to test their aptitude in seamanship and boat operations. USMS trainees took classes at the station\n(including swimming and endurance tests in the pool), in outdoor facilities near the present-day site of the Bayfront Center, and on the ships docked along the harbor. After the initial training session, the merchant mariners continued their studies in areas such as practical ship training (on the deck, in the engine room, as a steward, etc.) and advanced navigational techniques. A Cooks and Bakers School also began in December 1942.","Donald Saxer, a cadet who trained at the facility in 1943 and later joined the staff, collected many of the items in the Saxer/USMSTS, Bayboro Harbor, Collection. Rising to the rank of Chief Petty Officer, Saxer became an important leader at Bayboro Harbor. After the station closed in 1950, Saxer remained as part of the staff that managed the facilities until the City of St. Petersburg took control of the site in the mid-1950s.","Speical Collections and University Archives has related collections including the Goddard collection, Hoffman/Luckett collection, and the DiMattia collection.

This event marked the beginning of the United States Maritime Service Training Station (USMSTS) in St. Petersburg, Florida. From late 1939 until 1941, the Maritime Service ships resided at the Coast Guard base while construction of the training station took place. Dedicated in July 1941, the USMSTS became an active training center during the war years. Until decommissioned in early 1950, this site served as one of the largest training facilities for the Merchant Marine along the southern coast of the United States. Thousands of Maritime Service graduates who had trained on ships such as the Joseph Conrad, Tusitala, Vigil, American Seaman, and American Sailor later carried supplies to armed forces during the Second World War and played other essential roles in supporting convoys and protecting shipments.","Mariners had served with honor since the earliest days of the United States, with privateers and merchant marines assisting the Continental Navy during the American Revolution. During times of war and peace, these sailors transported cargo, guarded shipments, and assisted members of\nthe Armed Forces with logistical operations. The United States Congress authorized the creation of a United States Maritime Service through the Merchant Marine Act of 1936. Two years later, President Franklin D. Roosevelt established the U.S. Maritime Service (USMS) in an effort to\nprepare for possible wartime hostilities.","Approximately 25,000 young adults trained at the Bayboro Harbor facility between early 1940 and 31 March 1950. Many young men between the ages of 17½ and 35 arrived during America's involvement in the Second World War. Along with waves of over 120,000 U.S. Army Air Corps recruits and other service personnel, the USMS trainees stayed at hotels such as the Soreno and Vinoy, as well as in the barracks that later became part of USF St. Petersburg ('B' building) until demolished in March 1992. Cadets faced a rigorous five-week preliminary training session to test their aptitude in seamanship and boat operations. USMS trainees took classes at the station\n(including swimming and endurance tests in the pool), in outdoor facilities near the present-day site of the Bayfront Center, and on the ships docked along the harbor. After the initial training session, the merchant mariners continued their studies in areas such as practical ship training (on the deck, in the engine room, as a steward, etc.) and advanced navigational techniques. A Cooks and Bakers School also began in December 1942.","Donald Saxer, a cadet who trained at the facility in 1943 and later joined the staff, collected many of the items in the Saxer/USMSTS, Bayboro Harbor, Collection. Rising to the rank of Chief Petty Officer, Saxer became an important leader at Bayboro Harbor. After the station closed in 1950, Saxer remained as part of the staff that managed the facilities until the City of St. Petersburg took control of the site in the mid-1950s.","Speical Collections and University Archives has related collections including the Goddard collection, Hoffman/Luckett collection, and the DiMattia collection.
