Asa Jennings
Asa Kent Jennings (1877–1933) was a Methodist Pastor from Upstate New York and a member of the YMCA.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Stitzer YMCA Center at Springfield College )〕 In 1904, while in his twenties, Jennings was struck down by Pott's Disease, a type of tuberculosis which affects the spine. As a result of his tuberculosis, he stood not much taller than 5 foot and with a noticeable hunch back.〔Lou Ureneck, The Great Fire: One man's mission to rescue victims of the 20th century's first genocide. Ecco, 2015. p18〕 In 1922, he commanded the evacuation of 350,000 helpless refugees from the shores of Smyrna (today İzmir) in Turkey following the Great Fire of Smyrna.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=How Jennings rescued the Christians of Smyrna )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jennings - One Man Changed Greece and Turkey Forever )〕 For his work, Greece awarded Jennings its highest civilian honor, the Cross of the Order of the Redeemer, and the highest war honor, the medal of Military Merit.〔(''Doubly honored by Greece'' ) The New York Times, December 28, 1922.〕 In 1945, MGM Studios made a 10-minute short film based on the life of Asa Jennings.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Strange Destiny (1945) )
