Biografi redigér

Personlige liv redigér

Donn F. Draeger blev født i Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 15. april 1922.[1] Hans forældre var Frank og Irma (Poetsch) Draeger.[7] I 1940, i en alder af 17 år, levede Draeger i Milwaukee med sin far, hans stedmor Dora, to halvbrødre og hans fars stedfar og mor.[8] Draeger blev viet i Bluefield, West Virginia den 18. juni 1949. I løbet af de efterfølgende to år fik Draeger og hans hustru to sønner.

I 1956 blev Draeger optaget ved Georgetown University i Washington, DC,[9] og i 1959 fik han graden 'bachelor of science' fra Sophia University in Tokyo.[10]

Draeger døde den 20 Oktober 19825 ved 'The Veterans Affairs Medical Center' i Milwaukee, hvor årsagen til hans død var levercancer. Draeger blev kremeret ved 'Wood National Cemetery' i Milwaukee den 25. oktober 1982.[11]

Research redigér

Efter mange år i stillehavsområdet havde Draeger permanent bopæl i Japan i midten af 1950'erne og blev fuldstændigt besat af studiet af japanske kampdiscipliner. Draeger opnået medlemskab af Japans ældste kulturelle organisation for studiet og bevarelse af klassisk kampkunst, Nihon Kobudo Shinkokai. Draeger grundlagde International Research Section (IRS) ved Nihon Kobudo Shinkokai med henblik på at gøre det lettere for ikke-japanske personer at få adgang til studie og adfærdsresearch inden for det japanske kamp-etos. I begyndelsen af 1960erne havde denne sektion bidraget med en kontinuerlig serie af undersøgelser i Japan og produceret et omfattende antal data primært relateret til Japan. Senere sidst i 1950'erne foretog Draeger navneforandring af denne Sektion til International Hoplology Society (IHC) og modificerede aktiviteterne i organisationen til at inkludere et more internationalt område.[12]

I 1970erne anvendte Draeger anselig tid på forelæsninger ved blandt andet University of Hawaii Manoa og udviklede professionel kontakter mellem IHRC og forskere med henblik på forbunds relaterede research.[12]

Draeger forblev direktør for IHRC i Tokyo indtil hans død i l982. Siden 1983 har funktionerne af IHRC, omdøbt til the International Hoplology Society i 1986, været ledet af Hunter B Armstrong og David A Hall.[12]

Draeger begyndte sin rekuttræning ved Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego i januar 1943. Efter uddannelsen blev han optaget på 'officer candidate school' ved Marine Corps Base Quantico. Drager fik officersbestallingen som 'second lieutenant' i april 1943 og blev efterfølgende forfremmet til 'first lieutenant' i april 1945,[5] og til 'captain' i 1947.[13]

Oktober 1944 modtog Draeger træning som signalofficer, hvor han var tilknyttet Corps Signal Battalion, V Amphibious Corps. I løbet af februar og marts 1945 deltog Corps Signal Battalion i slaget om Iwo Jima.

April 1945 blev Draeger forfremmet til 'first lieutenant' og overført til III Marine Expeditionary Force (III MEF), der skulle forberede invasionen af Japan (Operation Downfall). Da stillehavskrigen endte i august 1945 vendte III Marine Expeditionary Force til Nordkina for at acceptere japanske soldaters overgivelse. Fra oktober 1945 til februar 1946 tjente Draeger ved en signalenhed i Tianjin, Kina.

Draeger vendte tilbage til USA i foråret 1946, hvor han lå ved Marine detachementer i Illinois, Michiganog Wisconsin.

Januar 1947 blev Draeger overflyttet til Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune. Imens han tjente ved Camp Lejeune blev han forfremmet til 'captain'.[13]

Sommeren 1951 blev Draeger sendt til Koreakrigen, hvor han tjente som siganiofficer i 1st Marine Division. Under opholdet i Korea blev ansvarlig for undervisning i judo ved Hongcheon.[14]

Oktober 1952 blev Draeger flyttet til Headquarters Marine Corps.[15]
