WALTER BLUE (1909-1990). Papers; 1869-1975. 2.3 cu. ft.
Walter Blue was born in Seward, Alaska. He attended high school in Seward and Seattle, Washington and obtained a bachelor's degree from Washington State College. In 1935 he began work with the Alaska Rural Rehabilitation Corporation in Palmer, where he met his wife, Elsie Havens. They were married in 1939 in Seward. During World War II they lived in Seward, where Blue served as paymaster for the Army Transport Service. After the war Blue taught at Seward High School until 1960, when he left the state to obtain his master's degree in history at Hunter University in New York state. He later returned to Seward and managed the Seward Broadcasting Station until the earthquake in 1964. The Blues then moved to Anchorage, where Walter taught history at the University of Alaska, Anchorage. He also served as the command historian for the United States Army in Alaska, supervising the historical program at Fort Richardson, Fort Wainwright, and Fort Greely. He retired from teaching in 1977.
The collection consists of records gathered by Blue during the course of his activities as Army command historian for Alaska, and as a history professor at the University of Alaska, Anchorage. The records primarily concern the military in Alaska and include general, command, base, and unit histories; histories of the Alaska Communications System; military manuals; biographies of Alaskan U.S. Army commanders and bibliographies of military works on Alaska; miscellaneous publications, articles, speeches, and other historical materials about Alaska; and photographs.
