dbo:abstract
  • Burns Tracy Walling (February 4, 1855 – May 12, 1938) was a United States Naval officer from June 20, 1876 to June 30, 1911. During and immediately after World War I he served as Inspector of Engineering and Ordnance Material in Boston, Massachusetts. After serving in several assignments, including conduct of a survey of the Pacific Coast of Mexico and Central America, Walling served as an instructor in the department of physics and chemistry at the United States Naval Academy from December 1886 until September 1892. He was inspector of ordnance and equipment for the reconstruction of the three gunboats raised by Admiral George Dewey after the Battle of Manila Bay during the Spanish–American War. In May, 1904, Walling began duty as commandant of the U. S. Naval Station, Culebra, Puerto Rico. He was the first captain of the USS Birmingham (CL-2) from April 11, 1908 to May 9, 1909 and Captain of the Yard at Naval Station New York from May 9, 1909 to October 28, 1909. Just before his retirement, from August 6, 1910 to June 30, 1911, when he retired at the grade of commodore, he commanded Naval Station, San Juan, Puerto Rico. When President Woodrow Wilson requested that a Joint session of the United States Congress declare war on the German Empire and Congress approved the declaration on April 2, 1917, and the United States entered World War I, Walling returned to duty as Inspector of Engineering and Ordnance Material at Boston, Massachusetts until November 18, 1919. He was relieved of all duty on November 20, 1920. (en)
