Shattered Union Publisher: 2K Games Developer: PopTop Software Genre: Strategy Release Date: GameSpace Review Previews News Downloads Movies Cheats Check Prices Perhaps the blue states finally got tired of the red states. Or maybe the "Tastes Great" crowd couldn't reconcile their differences anymore with the "Less Filling" folk. Whatever the case, Shattered Union is a newly announced turn-based strategy game that depicts everyone's favorite hypothetical scenario, a modern-day American civil war. What's this? To some, a second civil war seems more likely to happen than a major publisher actually putting out a turn-based strategy game. But the success of Advance Wars on the Game Boy and other turn-based games on the consoles seems to have spurred interest once again in the genre. Maybe one day, Ken Burns will make a documentary about this civil war. Beer quips aside, the story in Shattered Union has the United States splintering into a half-dozen regional factions after terrorism, internal strife, and the nuking of Washington DC take their toll. Your job is to take control of one of these factions and attempt to reunify the country under your leadership. You can even play as those dastardly Europeans, as the old countries of that continent have the gall to send "peacekeeping" troops to America. Sacre bleu! The game itself is played out on a 3D tactical map, with the option to even turn on a good old-fashioned, war game-style hex grid. Terrain and features of the map, such as roads and cities, are all rendered in 3D, while military units are represented by large 3D unit counters. In many ways, the look of Shattered Union is sort of what a 3D version of what the classic PC war game Panzer General would look like.

Bigelow STAFF WRITERS July 24, 2005 Titan worker claims he was abandoned in Iraq He knew it would be dangerous; he is an ex-Marine. But his attitude about the job changed one blistering July morning in 2004, as he drove a Nissan SUV down a street in Mosul past a group of men crouched around a red Opel sedan. He heard the distinctive "pop-pop-pop" of an AK-47 assault rifle, then a series of "tick-tick-ticks" as slugs punched through the SUV's thin metal sides. A bullet ricocheted into his ankle, and he felt searing pain. It was an ambush. Bleeding and terrified, the Titan employees jumped from the crippled SUV and scrambled into a friendly truck that was following them in the convoy.

How to use this guide In compiling this guide, project staff reviewed and analyzed collections and individually cataloged items for Civil War content. We were led to materials through the Society's existing card catalog of manuscripts and through information in our new automated collections management database. Analysis of items and collections included the review of materials not previously highlighted for Civil War content but that fell into the appropriate time period or to which the staff's attention was drawn by some other means. Consequently, this guide provides detail about far more materials than could be found by an initial review of Civil War-related subject entries in the card catalog or database. At the same time, we should make clear that our search of the manuscripts collection for Civil War materials has been comprehensive but not exhaustive, given the constraints of time, staffing, and the sheer size of the collection itself. Certainly, other materials than those listed in this guide may be located in our holdings through imaginative research strategies. The great majority of Civil War manuscripts currently in the holdings Virginia Historical Society, however, may be accessed through this guide. Another important point to which the attention of users should be drawn involves the types of materials that make up the Society's manuscripts collection. Although some military service records, muster rolls, orders, and the like may be found in our holdings having made their way by various routes into collections of personal and family papers the Society's collection consists primarily of letters, diaries, scrapbooks, and related materials and is not the place to launch a search for official documentation. Queries about such records should be directed to the Archives Division of the

Army ROTC at The University of Virginia History of Military Units at the University of Virginia Research by 2LT Brendan Dignan, 2001 Home Overview Cavalier Battalion Curriculum ... US Army In the early days of the University, circa 1820, while Thomas Jefferson was still Rector, a voluntary military company existed. However, it was disbanded some years later on its unwillingness to submit to certain regulations of the faculty, who held a firm grasp over University policy at the time. The dispute was over the issue of weapon keeping. The student-cadets wished to keep arms in their Lawn rooms on the Academical Village . Faculty members refused this request, demanding that weapons be kept in a separate armory. Without a compromise, the company fell idle for some 30 years. Upon the secession of South Carolina on December 20, 1860, two military companies were again formed at the University, this during the second session of 1860-1861. Students from the Virginia Military Institute traveled to Charlottesville to form and train the companies. Though Virginia had not yet declared itself seceded from the Union, there was and air of trepidation among the primarily southern student body. These two companies consisted of about 100 students each and called themselves the "Southern Guard," and the "Sons of Liberty," an obvious reference to rebellious group led by Samuel Adams prior to the Revolutionary War.

51. History & Culture Of Russia / Overview With the outbreak of the Second World War, the Soviet union found itself unprepared military units were dispatched to enforce the authority of the new http://www.geographia.com/russia/rushis07.htm

The Soviet Era T he first few years of Soviet rule were marked by an extraordinary outburst of social and cultural change. Although the Bolsheviks had maintained complete control of the economy during the civil war, Lenin decided at its end that a partial return to a market economy would help the country recover from the destruction of the previous three years. His New Economic Policy, or NEP, brought about a period of relative prosperity, allowing the young Soviet government to consolidate its political position and rebuild the country's infrastructure. This was also the period during which the Russian Avant-Garde reached its height, developing the radical new styles of Constructivism, Futurism, and Suprematism . Although the country still faced enormous challenges, there was a widespread sense of optimism and opportunity. As was the case with the Napoleonic Wars, the Soviet Union emerged from World War II considerably stronger than it had been before the war. Although the country suffered enormous devastation and lost more than twenty million lives, it had gained considerable territory and now ranked as one of the two great world powers along with the United States. Nonetheless, life in the country continued to suffer. Industrial production was once again concentrated on heavy industry, agricultural failures produced widespread famine, political freedoms were restricted even further, and another huge wave of purges was carried out. As the Cold War got underway, an increasing proportion of the Soviet Union's resources were funneled into military projects, further exacerbating the quality of life. Stalin remained in power until 1953, when he died of a cerebral hemorrhage.

FAS Nuke Guide Russia ... Join FAS Russian Army Units and Equipment The ground forces are organized into six [previously eight] military districts, one independent army, and two groups of forces. Although the districts are ground forces commands, they may include forces from the other services, in which case they also serve as regional commands. In February 1996, four of Russia's eight independent airborne brigades were placed under ground forces command, with one each going to the North Caucasus, Siberian, Transbaikal, and Far Eastern districts. At the same time, two of five airborne divisions, stationed at Pskov and Novorossiysk, were assigned for special joint operations to the Northern and Siberian districts, respectively. These shifts, which outside observers interpreted as the end of plans to form a mobile force for rapid insertion in trouble areas, reflected a shortage of the airlift capacity needed to support independent operations by such troops, as well as a possible fear of coup activity in independent elite military units. The army group, army, or corps commander has chiefs of branches subordinate to him. They normally report to him through the chief of staff. The commander of missile troops and artillery (CMTA) at the operational level is a commander (rather than chief). There is also a commander of air defense. There are chiefs of engineer, chemical, and signal troops and a chief of the personnel directorate. Each of these individuals has his own staff.

Women Warriors Women Warriors in the 20th Century World War I In 1915 Madame Arno, an artist, organized a regiment of Parisian women to fight the Germans. Helene Dutreux was the first of a number of women the French government officially permitted to become military pilots during WW I. Emilienne Moreau fought in the front ranks in a number of actions including the Battle of Loos where she killed two snipers. She was awarded the Croix de Guerre, the Bristish Red Cross Medal and the St. John Ambulance Society Medal. In 1940 she once again fought for her country earning a second Croix de Guerre. More than 200 women fought in the Polish legion in 1916, among them were Sophie Jowanowitsch and Stanislawa Ordynska. Flora Sanders was an Englishwoman in her forties when she fought in the trenches with the Serbian army during WW I. Colonel Militch, her commander, explained that he allowed her to join his troops because he felt she would be "as effective a soldier as the Serbian peasant women" already fighting in the ranks. She rose to the rank of corporal and was in charge of a platoon when she was severely injured by a grenade in August 1916. She was hospitalized, awarded Serbia's highest military decoration, the Kara George Star, and promoted to sergeant major. She recovered from her wounds and returned to the front. Helen Ruz, a 19 year old corporal in the Voluntary Ukraine Legion, fought at the front in the Carpathian Mountains and during the Galcian campaigns. She won two medals and was hit by shrapnel while serving in the Uhlans. Sophie Haletchko was a decorated sergeant major in the Ukranian cavalry. Zoya Smirnow was the only survivor of a group of 12 teenager girls who disguised themselves as boys and joined the Russian army. They fought in Galacia and the Carpathians.

57. Purges And Hysteria In The Soviet Union Police and army units surrounded rebellious peasant communities, burned homes and Soviet industry and plans to frustrate the Soviet union s military. http://www.fsmitha.com/h2/ch20.htm

home 1901-World War II previous next Purges and Hysteria in the Soviet Union Collectivization of Agriculture and Upheaval During the Great Depression elsewhere, there was no dearth of government spending in the Soviet Union. The Soviet government was pursuing a planned growth of basic manufacturing - for the sake of industry rather than public consumption. It was a "command economy," without unemployment and with as much wealth invested in economic growth as the government could muster. Soviet manufacturing was not advancing in productivity, but by 1935 in volume Soviet manufacturing was more than five times what it had been in 1913, and in percentage of the world's share in manufacturing the Soviet Union had surpassed France, Great Britain and Germany. The United States had a 33 percent share of the world's manufacturing, Russia had 13 percent, and Germany was third at 11 percent. During the Depression, unemployment in capitalist nations enabled the Soviet Union to import thousands of engineers. And others came, running from unemployment and eager to help build socialism. Not receiving wages high enough to consume much of anything except subsistence food, building socialism had to be an incentive too for Soviet citizens. And they were told that they were sacrificing for the Revolution and for the future. An estimated three million peasant households had been expropriated. According to Soviet statistics, the number of so-called rich peasants - the Kulaks - had dropped from 5.5 million to 150,000. The homes, barns, land and tools of rebellious peasants had been turned over to the new collective farms. Trainloads of peasants, including children and old people, had been transported to remote areas, some to labor camps or to colonies in Russia's far north or in Siberia. Arrested peasants made up new labor battalions that worked at building railways, cutting timber and building the canal between the White and Baltic seas. The Soviet prison system, which had been founded for re-education, was developing into slave labor camps.

58. Agitation In The NVA The tested forms of agitation in military units include FDJ and trade union should be sure that. each military collective (group, crew, unit or http://www.calvin.edu/academic/cas/gpa/nva01.htm

Background: This is a chapter on methods of agitation from a book published in 1988 for agitators and propagandists in East Germany's military. This material is in classic GDR Marxist-Leninist prose, and is rather challenging to translate. It is taken from the 500-page handbook for political work in the army. One should keep in mind the Marxist distinction between propaganda and agitation when reading this. Propaganda was the in depth treatment of issues, agitation the bringing of the material to the masses. The full chapter outline of the book is as follows: Chapter 1: Political Work in the National People's Army Chapter 2: The Main Tasks of Political Work in the Communist Education of the Socialist Military Personality and in forming a Strong, Battle-ready Military Collective Chapter 3: Leading Political Work in a Military Unit Chapter 4: Duties and Methods of the SED Local Organization in a military unit Chapter 5: Duties and Methods of Mass Organizations in Military Units Chapter 6: Propaganda in Military Units Chapter 7: Agitation in Military Units Chapter 8: Cultural Work in Military Units Chapter 9: Military Traditions, Military Educational Work with the Public, and Work with Family Members
