The involvement of the United States in World War II affected every aspect of the American way of life, the military wasn't the exception.
Race tensions were still high during this time period, and segregation still persisted in the military.
However with that in mind President Franklin D. Roosevelt issued the Executive Order 8802, the result of this order was ending racial discrimination stemming from the defense industry, this also saw the founding of the Fair Employment Practices Committee (FEPC) which would oversee to upkeep fair hiring practices.
These acts proved to be vital to show the American public that the Federal Government was willing to take a step in ending discrimination.
And finally, in 1948, the United States Government integrated all of its armed forces.
In the 1830s, several parties of Americans traveled to Oregon, further establishing the Oregon Trail. Many of these emigrants were missionaries seeking to convert natives to Christianity. Jason Lee was the first, traveling in Nathaniel Jarvis Wyeth's party in 1833 and establishing the Oregon Mission in the Willamette Valley; the Whitmans and Spaldings arrived in 1836, establishing the Whitman Mission east of the Cascades. In 1839 the Peoria Party embarked for Oregon from Illinois.
In 1841, wealthy master trapper and entrepreneur Ewing Young died without a will, and there was no system to probate his estate. A probate government was proposed at a meeting after Young's funeral. Doctor Ira Babcock of Jason Lee's Methodist Mission was elected Supreme Judge. Babcock chaired two meetings in 1842 at Champoeg (halfway between Lee's mission and Oregon City) to discuss wolves and other animals of contemporary concern. These meetings were precursors to an all-citizen meeting in 1843, which instituted a provisional government headed by an executive committee made up of David Hill, Alanson Beers, and Joseph Gale. This government was the first acting public government of the Oregon Country before American annexation.
