Dwight D. Eisenhower

Dwight D. Eisenhower was the 34th President of the United States. Previous to becoming President, he was a five-star general during World War II. Eisenhower was President from January of 1953 to January of 1961.

In 1911, Dwight Eisenhower enrolled in West Point Academy and graduated in 1915 as a second lieutenant. He served in the infantry at various camps in Texas and Georgia until 1918. Within this time period he found time to be a football coach at St. Louis College, now St. Mary's University, in 1916.

During World War I, Eisenhower was temporarily given the title of Lieutenant Colonel in the National Army. During this time he trained tank crews, his first command, although his crews or tanks never saw action.

After the war he was given back his title of captain (although he was promoted to major a few days later) and assumed duties at Camp Meade until 1922. Eisenhower then became executive officer to General Fox Conner in the Panama Canal Zone until 1924.

In 1925-26 he attended Command and General Staff College where he graduated first in a class of 245 officers. He then went on to serve as a battalion commander at Fort Benning until 1927.

During this time of peace he held many positions such as being assigned to the American Battle Monuments Commission, executive officer to General MacArthur, and various staff positions in Washington DC, Texas, and California. He was promoted to brigadier general on October 3, 1941.

Dwight D. Eisenhower served two 4-terms for a total of 8 years as President of the United States of America, from 1953 January 20 to 1961 January 20. This was the only political office that Eisenhower held in his lifetime, as he came from a military background, famously acting as the Supreme Allied Commander of Allied Forces in Europe after WWII. Before becoming the 34th president, Eisenhower was a five-star general who served during World War 2.

I do not think he held any official positions. He retired to his estate in Gettysburg . Occasionally he would make some endorsements and give advice when called upon.

Ike

Children don't have leadership roles. They are children.

hes mom had children so he wanted a child so he became president and had children....wait what was the question......? And who the heck is dwight eisenhower and can you tell me the goals he has as president?

As president, the first problem was to end the Korean War. Prominent millionaires in Ike's cabinet and archconservatives seemed to have free rein over Ike's staff. Ike also failed to come out against the wild charges of Senator Joseph McCarthy. Atomic weapons were stockpiled during his administration and he promised "massive retaliation" against Soviet agression yet did nothing when the Red Army occupied Hungary in 1956. The Eisenhower Doctrine promised foreign aid to the Middle East. When Israel, France, and Britain invaded the Suez Canal, Ike led UN opinion against them and forced them to withdraw. He started the US backing of the French in Vietnam and then the puppet Diem regime that turned out to be unable to control South Vietnam and became corrupt. The communist revolution in Cuba, the Soviet shooting down the U-2 spy plane over Soviet air space, and the use of US troops in the Civil Rights clashes in Arkansas marred his second term.

Yes, he graduated from the US military academy known as West Point with the standard bachelor's degree they offer.

The cause of Eisenhower's death is heart failure.

President Eisenhower believed that presidents should not take sides - rather, he thought that the president should be a strong moral leader. On his desk, a sign in Latin read, "gentle in manner, strong in deed," which he tried to be. Eisenhower liked to do most of the hard presidential work back-stage, instead of up-front and he tried to have as little government action as possible.

If your 1971 coin is a uncirculated example it may be worth about $5.00 because the 1971 & 1972 issue coins were not included in the Uncirculated Mint sets sold from the Mint in those years but in general none of the Eisenhower dollars regardless of date or mintmark struck for general circulation have no silver or are worth more than face value. Only proof and uncirculated collectors coins sold from the Mint have premiums
