Nothing! He didn't have a middle name, per se. According to Truman himself, the initial was a way to honor both his grandfathers, Anderson Shipp Truman and Solomon Young.

1984

The 20-cent Harry S. Truman regular stamp was issued on January 26, 1984, in Washington, DC. The stamp issuance honored the centennial of the birth of the 33rd US president (1945-53).

Harry S. Truman (1884-1972) entered politics as a county judge in 1922. He was Franklin D. Roosevelt's running mate in 1944. His vice presidency lasted less than three months, until Roosevelt's death on April 12, 1945. Truman spent a turbulent period in office, and he ordered the atomic bombings on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 and Korean War in 1950. He is considered a man who led the US into international confrontation with Soviet and Chinese communism.

The stamp was engraved through the intaglio process.

Harry S. Truman did not have a middle name. The S stood for a compromise between the names of his two grandfathers -- Anderson Shippe Truman and Solomon Young. There has been considerable debate whether Truman's middle initial should be written with or without a period. Truman himself said more than once that it did not matter--that it could be written either way. See, for example, the illustration of Truman's letter of August 19, 1970, to (later) Congressman James E. Rogan in Rogan's 2004 autobiography "Rough Edges." Except for early in his life and in the last few years of his life, when the middle initial in his signature became essentially printed, Truman never signed his full signature using a period after the "S". When he signed his initials, though, he sometimes signed "HST" and sometimes signed "H.S.T."

* Appreciation for Truman's legacy and methodology in office increases with every passing year, as does the value of his genuine signature. * As with all collectibles, determining value is a function of authenticity and condition. If genuine, the photo would be worth $75-200, depending on condition and pose. Autographed photos can range from 75 to 2000 depending on the condition and content of the photo (pose, other people, the event, etc.)

The essence of the Truman doctrine was that the United States would lend aid (money and weapons) to any nation that was being threatened by outside influences. However-the subtext is much more important. The Truman Doctrine essentially declared Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union. Truman and his advisors believed that no free nation would ever willingly turn Communist. Therefore, any nation that had a successful Communist party meant that it was in the process of being subverted. This ignored the fact that the Soviet Union had a hard time reigning in most other communist leaders. In the words of Truman himself, the doctrine was designed to "scare the hell" out of the American people and keep the US engaged in the rest of the world, rather than return to our traditional isolationist foreign policy. The Doctrine was drafted in response to the Greek Civil War. In 1944, before the end of World War II, the Greek Communists had been at the forefront of the anti-Nazi resistance, while the Greek monarchy had the backing of Adolf Hitler. After Britain pulled out of the Mediterranean, the US stepped in to fill the power vacuum. Truman issued his statement to support the pro-Nazi monarchy. The Greek communists were defeated-but not because of American action. Tito-the communist leader in Yugoslavia, had been allowing the Greek communists to cross into his nation and use it as a base for action. Tito then had a falling-out with Stalin. Tito was afraid Stalin would use the Greek Communists against him, and so shut the border. The Greek Communists were then able to be captured and destroyed.
