    I wish the people telling these great stories would get at least the unit designation correct, the purple heart battalion was the 100th Infantry Battalion (Separate) originally from Hawaii. The 442nd Regimental Combat Team was primarily people from the main land, from internment camps. The 100th Infantry Battalion (Separate) was incorporated into the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, it replaced the 1st Battalion which was a training Battalion back in the United States. the correct unit designation was the 100th/442nd Regimental Combat Team. Which is now a reserve unit stationed in the Pacific.

    During the New York power failure of November 9, 1965, it was ordered that power from the Missouri Basin dams was to be "shipped" east to fill the load vacuum which existed to get the Northeast powered-up once again. Ft. Randall's power output was one of them.

    The double circuit Ft. Randall-Sioux City 230-kV transmission line and I share a birthday: 1953. Hard to believe that line is now 70 years old. I remember when it was only 10 years of age and it still delivers power as a Bureau installation. If you drive across the old U. S. 16 Missouri River bridge at Chamberlain, you are driving across the old Wheeler, SD bridge, which allowed U. S. 18/281 visitors to travel between Platte, SD and towns in north Nebraska, such as Spencer. Wheeler as a town was to be submerged under the reservoir of Lake Francis Case and the bridge was moved upriver. The town's cemetery was moved, along with most of the buildings, houses and other manageable assets, prior to the lake filling. Wheeler no longer exists. U. S. 18/281 now traverses Ft. Randall Dam's top roadway across the Missouri River instead of the old Wheeler Bridge.

    Did a native man really come into the store and warn them about the coming winter?

  • @southdakotahistory
    @southdakotahistory3 ай бұрын

    Hi Stacy. The author, CIndy Wilson, shared with us that "no one really knows." The passage is included in Pioneer Girl, Wilder's earliest version of her autobiography. But it could be that her father repeated what he had read in area newspapers and it was remembered by Wilder as local. Regional newspapers reported similar warnings. The warnings were reported to readers as a way to be prepared. There was an underlying respect that if the area natives felt the upcoming winter was to be bad, the warnings should be respected. Hope this helps!

    So did Laura and her family almost starve or not?

  • @southdakotahistory
    @southdakotahistory Жыл бұрын

    Yes, they did almost starve. Because they were the first family in De Smet, they were on the scene and using up their supplies much longer than most of the town folk, and it does take a few years to get virgin sod producing vegetables. The wild birds and animals had instinctually known that the hard winter was coming and had headed elsewhere, so there was no game to hunt. Once the trains were unable to get through, there were no more supplies to be had.

    What is the difference between Pioneer girl Annotated Autobiography and Pioneer girl revised edition? Which is better?

  • @southdakotahistory
    @southdakotahistory Жыл бұрын

    Pioneer Girl: The Annotated Autobiography is a typed out version of Wilder’s original 1930 “Pioneer Girl” manuscript, with lots of annotations. Pioneer Girl: The Revised Texts is three different versions of that original text, created by Wilder’s daughter Rose Wilder Lane as she tried rather desperately to sell the manuscript to a New York publisher in 1930. Lane “ran it through her typewriter” three times. The book has the three versions lined up side by side, so that the reader can see what Lane deleted and altered. There is a fourth column of annotations, which follow up on what happened to the deleted parts. Wilder ended up putting most of them back in. The next volume, Pioneer Girl: The Path into Fiction (to be released on May 30, 2023) focuses on a short children’s story that Lane pulled from the “Pioneer Girl” manuscript and tried to sell to New York publishers. This one met with success and became Little House in the Big Woods.
