Operation Red Wing

reason behind the designing of oblique wings. This design has been found to reduce wave drag for a supersonic aircraft and can be believed as an aerodynamic evolution to swept wings on symmetric aircraft configurations. This wing is not symmetric at supersonic speeds, but rotates about a central pivot, which allows the maximum cross sectional area perpendicular to the flow to be half that of a similar symmetric design. The…

diagonal line). This creates lift because air blowing up to the wing bounces off, pushing the wing up. This is the reason why if you stick your hand out of the window of a fast moving car, your hand moves up, which is lift. The second reason is Bernoulli's Principle. As seen is F3, the principle says that if there is an increase in velocity (speed) on the top of the wing, there will be less pressure on the top too, lifting the wing up. For example, if you blow really hard on top of a piece of…

world as we know it. Stalingrad held the original name of Tsaritsyn until the year of 1925. It was renamed for Joseph Stalin, the leader of the country. After the Russian civil war (1917-1922), the Bolsheviks took over the country, turning it into a red state. The city is famously known for its resistance in the second world war. It suffered severe losses and catastrophic…

Inside the Aquarium, by Viktor Suvorov, is a spy novel that tells the story of his personal rise and fall of being a GRU officer during the Cold War. Even though this novel is classified as a biography, not all of it should be assumed as true. Through analyzing how Suvorov portrays the adversaries, the allies, and the tradecraft in the novel, a deduction can be drawn to if this novel is a credible source of information. The first area to analyze to determine the credibility of Inside the…

Ambushed Prelude I joined the ranks of the Red Army in 1940 when I was only 18, just one year before the beginning of the Great Patriotic War. My family was from Byelorussia, and immigrated to Russia in the 1800’s and settled down in Stalingrad, where I lived before I joined the army. My grandmother used to tell me stories of how my grandpa fought in the Russian Civil War, against the Tsarist White Army in the Saratov region. He served as a Senior Lieutenant, commanding his own motorised…

The Ultimate Experience: Life in Color I. Introduction In what may seem a harsh generalization, I would like to begin by considering the likelihood of a Christian committing suicide to gain an early entry into heaven? On first inclination, we know this would not happen because they perceive suicide to be a sin. Even with a less nuanced version, we know that in spite of the belief of heaven and a perfect afterlife, there has not been a wide scale mass extinction of Christians any time lately. If…

“I’m Patricia McNulty. I taught second grade at Hawthorn Elementary” (Parlor Games) and my husband Mort is not dead. During my senior year in high school I was actively involved in the theatre program. The final fall play I could audition for was called Parlor Games. Walking into auditions I had done little research on the show, but knew I wanted to be the lead nonetheless. After a long afternoon of auditioning and having to reread for callback, I ended up with the part of the lead. At…

Sasha, I started watching wrestling at the end of 2015. I tuned in at a great time because this was the beginning of the revolution. I remember loving Becky Lynch, but I started to like this other wrestler named Sasha Banks. She had pink hair, an awesome entrance, and some pretty amazing gear. I was gravitated towards you ever since. I cheered for you at WrestleMania 32, and you looked absolutely stunning. You put on a magnificent show that gave me this idea. I thought to myself, “I want to do…

The 20th century will forever go down as one of the most critical, and bold centuries to ever go down in history. With the advances in technology that forever will change the fate of production, and quality of life of citizens around the world; to bear witness to a bold new world that gave birth to both the biggest successes, and atrocities the world has ever felt on its surface. WWI already left an unparalleled scar on the face of history; but out of its participants, one was ready for revenge…

in the causation of Operation Barbarossa other factors such as Hitler’s aims to expand Germany to the East and ideological differences also played large factors in the decision to launch an offensive against Russia. This ultimately led to Germany executing ‘Operation Barbarossa’ in 1941, its secret invasion plan against Russia whom they had signed a non-aggression pact with in 1939. Overall while the Winter War became the public and official reason for the cause of Operation Barbarossa, as it…
