Edward W.
Mulcahy, 84, a retired FSO and former ambassador, died of
complications from Alzheimer’s disease on March 12 in
Winchester, Va. Ambassador Mulcahy graduated cum laude from
Tufts University in 1943 with a degree in history, and
thereafter joined the U.S. Marines. In June 1944 he saw his
first action in Guam, where as a second lieutenant, he led a
company of the 21st Marines of the 3rd Marine Division in
repelling a series of Japanese banzai attacks. He was
awarded the Silver Star and Purple Heart for his actions in
the liberation of Guam. After recovering from his wounds,
Amb. Mulcahy was promoted to first lieutenant, and in
February 1945 landed on Iwo Jima on the first day of the
Marine assault on that island. Pinned down on the beach with
his men by heavy Japanese bombardment, he was hit directly
on his left shin by a mortar round. Fortunately, the shell
did not explode, but his shinbone was shattered. He awoke to
see his medical corpsman pouring blood out of his boot. He
received a second Purple Heart for his wounds on Iwo Jima.
After the war, he was promoted to captain and placed in
charge of the Marine detachment at the U.S. Navy brig on
Governor’s Island in New York City. Amb. Mulcahy received a
master’s degree from the Fletcher School of Law and
Diplomacy in 1947. Upon graduation, he joined the Foreign
Service, serving for 33 years. His first assignment was as
principal officer in Mombasa. This was his first
introduction to Africa, which was to play an important part
in his career. In 1949, he was posted to Munich as a visa
officer. In 1950, he was assigned as political officer to
Addis Ababa, and then as principal officer in Asmara. There,
in 1951, he met Kathleen Lyon, a Foreign Service secretary;
they married in 1953 in Globe, Ariz. They had six children,
five of whom survive them. In 1952, Amb. Mulcahy returned to
Washington, D.C., where he worked on a variety of
assignments, including a stint on the Trusteeship Council
for Cameroon at the United Nations in New York. In 1956 he
was assigned to Athens as a political officer. In 1959, he
was posted to Salisbury, Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), as deputy
principal officer, and participated in the protection and
evacuation of Americans and other foreigners from the Congo
when civil war broke out there. In 1963, he returned to
Washington, to the Bureau of Near East and African Affairs,
with responsibility for Southern Africa. He was selected for
the Senior Seminar in 1966. Amb. Mulcahy served as DCM in
Tunis from 1967 to 1970, and then in Lagos from 1970 until
his appointment as ambassador to Chad in 1972. In 1974, he
returned to Washington as deputy assistant secretary of
State for African affairs. In 1976, he was named ambassador
to Tunisia. After he returned to the U.S. in 1979, Amb.
Mulcahy spent a year as diplomat-inresidence at Atlanta
University, where he drew up plans for a graduate program in
international relations. An excellent linguist, he spoke
German, French, Italian and Latin, and was conversant in
Swahili and modern Greek. Amb. Mulcahy retired from the
Foreign Service in 1980, taking up the position of vice
president at “Project Hope” headquarters in Millwood, Va.
Project Hope provides medical care and education throughout
the developing world. After retiring from Project Hope in
1982, he continued his interest in local and international
affairs, serving on the board of the Tunisian-American
Association in Washington, D.C., and lecturing on U.S.
foreign policy at Lord Fairfax Community College in
Middletown, Va. He was also a devout member of Sacred Heart
parish in Winchester. He was actively involved in his
college and Marine Corps reunions, as well as in the
American Foreign Service Association and the Ancient Order
of Hibernians. He and his wife traveled extensively in
retirement, both in the U.S. and abroad. Since 2000, Amb.
and Mrs. Mulcahy had been residents at Winchester-
Canterbury in Winchester, Va. Mrs. Mulcahy died in 2005.
Amb. Mulcahy was laid to rest, with full military honors, at
Arlington National Cemetery. He is survived by three
brothers and two sisters; five children, Anne Dower of Glen
Ellyn, Ill., John Mulcahy of Hong Kong, Eileen Mulcahy of
Winchester, Va., Kevin Mulcahy of Charlotte, N.C., and
Father Brian Mulcahy of Charlottesville, Va.; and nine
grandchildren |
