Scope & content

This collection documents the drafts and finalized speeches written by Sam Tangredi for Secretary of the Navy Dalton, and Under Secretary Danzig during the years 1993-1995. They contain notes and corrections, as well as copies of publications where the speeches were printed, commented on, or in one case, plagiarized. The speeches for Dalton were originally kept in six binders in an approximate chronological order, with a smaller seventh binder of Tangredi’s speeches for Under Secretary Danzig. In the first three binders, there was front matter detailing the contents. This front matter was not present in the others.
