Many young foreigners, including Americans like Fred Zinn, volunteered for the Foreign Legion when the war broke out in 1914.

One of the first aircraft used for surveillance was the Rumpler Taube during World War I, when aviators like Fred Zinn evolved entirely new methods of reconnaissance and photography.

" In The Politics of History, Zinn described how the bombing was ordered — three weeks before the war in Europe ended — by military officials who were, in part, motivated more by the desire for their own career advancement than in legitimate military objectives.

Zinn said his experience as a wartime bombardier, combined with his research into the reasons for, and effects of the bombing of Royan and Pilsen, sensitized him to the ethical dilemmas faced by G. I. s during wartime.

Zinn questioned the justifications for military operations that inflicted massive civilian casualties during the Allied bombing of cities such as Dresden, Royan, Tokyo, and Hiroshima and Nagasaki in World War II, Hanoi during the War in Vietnam, and Baghdad during the war in Iraq and the civilian casualties during bombings in Afghanistan during the current and nearly decade-old war there.

Zinn regularly included it in his lists of recommended readings, and after Barack Obama was elected President of the United States, Zinn wrote, " If Richard Hofstadter were adding to his book The American Political Tradition, in which he found both ' conservative ' and ' liberal ' presidents, both Democrats and Republicans, maintaining for dear life the two critical characteristics of the American system, nationalism and capitalism, Obama would fit the pattern.

While at Spelman, Zinn served as an adviser to the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee ( SNCC ) and wrote about sit-ins and other actions by SNCC for The Nation and Harper's.

As Zinn described in The Nation, though Spelman administrators prided themselves for turning out refined " young ladies ," its students were likely to be found on the picket line, or in jail for participating in the greater effort to break down segregation in public places in Atlanta.

His seven years at Spelman College, Zinn said, " are probably the most interesting, exciting, most educational years for me.

Zinn wrote about the struggle for civil rights, as both participant and historian.

Zinn wrote one of the earliest books calling for the U. S. withdrawal from its war in Vietnam.

" Correspondence by Fairbank, Zinn and other historians, published by the AHA in 1970, is online in what Fairbank called " our briefly-famous Struggle for the Mike ".

At Ellsberg's criminal trial for theft, conspiracy, and espionage in connection with the publication of the Pentagon Papers by The New York Times, defense attorneys called Zinn as an expert witness to explain to the jury the history of U. S. involvement in Vietnam from World War II to 1963.

Zinn discussed that history for several hours, later reflecting on his time before the jury.

In the 2001 film Unfinished Symphony, Zinn provides a historical context for the 1971 antiwar march by Vietnam Veterans against the War.

Zinn compared the demand by a growing number of contemporary U. S. military families to end the war in Iraq to parallel demands " in the Confederacy in the Civil War, when the wives of soldiers rioted because their husbands were dying and the plantation owners were profiting from the sale of cotton, refusing to grow grains for civilians to eat.

" Zinn argued that " There is no flag large enough to cover the shame of killing innocent people for a purpose which is unattainable ".

He observed that it is not unusual for prominent professors such as Zinn to weigh in on current events, citing a resolution opposing the war in Iraq that was recently ratified by the American Historical Association.

The FBI memos also show that they were concerned with Zinn ’ s repeated criticism of the FBI for failing to protect blacks against white mob violence.

In 2003, Zinn was awarded the Prix des Amis du Monde diplomatique for the French version of his seminal work, Une histoire populaire des Etats-Unis.

On October 5, 2006, Zinn received the Haven's Center Award for Lifetime Contribution to Critical Scholarship in Madison, Wisconsin.

Zinn argues that America was fighting a war that it could not win, as the Vietnamese people were in favor of the government of Ho Chi Minh and opposed the regime of Ngo Dinh Diem, thus allowing them to keep morale high.

Blaine Pardoe is an award winning author, having won the Historical Society of Michigan's State History Award in 2011 and the Silver Medal from the Military Writer's Society of America the same year for his book Lost Eagles ( University of Michigan Press ) about Frederick Zinn of the Lafayette Flying Corps.

This meeting was called to determine how these groups might cooperate to launch what is known as the Outdoor Education Project.

The Outdoor Education Project took cognizance of the fact, so often overlooked, that athletic activities stressed in most school programs have little or no relationship to the physical and mental needs and interests of later life.
