Land warfare

Che Guevara had the confidence that communism would save the disadvantaged people of Latin America in the Cuban Revolution in 1956-1959, and continued to be a guerrilla leader in South America. Since his execution by the Bolivian army in 1967, he has been considered a legendary political figure and an icon of radicalism and anti-imperialism because he exemplifies the core characteristics of what it takes to be a leader (Besancenot, Lowy, & Membrez). According to Warren Bennis, an American…

His letter was written to his mother describing how on Christmas the British and the Germans walked out into no man's land to wish each other a Merry Christmas and to play football. They also took time to bury their dead. Joint burial services were held for German and British soldiers. Former enemies even posed for pictures to commemorate the occasion. Some also took the…

Chemical weapons are known for being one of the most dangerous and destructive weapons ever made. They cause terror and destruction at the hands of people who use them with the slightest of ease. They are banned by the UN, along with nuclear weapons, but what is a chemical weapon, and could there be a non banned or acceptable use for one. Chemical weapons are not as cut and dry as we often believe, and there could quite possibly be a non banned weapon now, depending on judgement. To know what…

Our soldiers had their heads held high and they were all so excited for the battle, but the first experience of trench warfare had brought horror upon all of us. The first sight of the trenches showed that they were in the worst conditions and didn’t give privacy. The officers had told us that these “ditches” were going to remain as our homes for the rest of the war. These “worse” conditions were proved as we remained in the trenches for numerous days. It was the home where we were going to live…

commanders he planned out the attacks in order to prevent several casualties. It began on Easter Monday, April 9, 1917. We maneuvered to the front lines using the creeping barrage. On April 12,1917 we got close to the front lines and used explosive warfare to break through the German front lines. We lost about four thousand men, yet we were very successful and managed to take over Vimy Ridge with ease. Unlike the Battle at Somme, we were extremely successful and that led to Major-General Currie…

The night out was cold, about four degrees Celsius. Men were huddled up together, while others kept their eyes out for the German troops. The first battle of Ypres didn’t go so well, our enemies had used a new weapon on the French troops. It was some sort of deadly chemical weapon. It was April 21st, 1915, so far we didn’t know what to call this war. It was enormous, and affected most of the world. Poor Belgium wasn’t even a part of the force, but Germany tried to attack France by going through…

and walked through the muddy trench filled with water. As I walked I saw bodies still floating in the water from the previous day's battle, I shook my head sadly, these poor men did not even get the chance to make it over the top and into no man's land. When I finally made it to the command bunker I opened the door and was hit by a rush of warm air and the smell of cigarettes. “Good to see you still alive Scutchings!” said the captain…

causing more instability, something which is not good for the country. The war in Vietnam is also causing massive environmental damage. Our troops are using herbicides which they spray over the vegetation, all in the name of countering the guerilla warfare tactic by the Vietnam soldiers. Little does our government realize that they are adding toxic substances into the environment that will kill many organisms and plants or even interfere with their genetic composition. We are also left to wonder…

incident happened, tensions between the Japanese government and the Chinese based conglomerate, Black Canyon Research, had been escalating rapidly. They had an experimental research facility in Osaka, Japan. They were testing an experimental gas for warfare that was supposedly 25 times more powerful than VX nerve gas, and 200 times more powerful than Sarin gas. Employees had reported that the containment tanks were leaking. The government had shown up and told them to shut down their research…

At this respect ; Land use planning which includes objectives, polices, and proposals for the type and intensity of land use (A. O. Waananen);and as Berkea & Gavin Smith (2009) argued: ‘’Land use planning provides an important means to achieve mitigation by influencing human settlement patterns as its analytical tools and policy recommendations are inherently geospatial in nature affecting the location, type and density of development’’. (Berkea and Smith 2009; p2) However, in case of ambiguous…
