A staggering 1,015 American soldiers lost their lives in the HMT Rohna incident, making it the deadliest encounter at sea in the history of the U.S. military. But the U.S. War Department swore the nearly 700 survivors to secrecy under threat of court-martial, leaving the disaster all but unknown to the public for more than 50 years.

The U.S. Coast Guard Academy in New London has announced the creation of the Academy’s First Provost who will serve as the chief academic officer and principal adviser to the Academy’s superintendent.
Former University of Connecticut Vice-Provost Amy Donahue will take up the position and said it will bring the Academy more in line with other higher education schools.
“I think it aligns the Academy more closely with the norms of higher education. And so, as an elite engineering college that’s useful to make it more comprehensible to the rest of the peer and aspirant sort of institutions in the field,” Donahue said.
