Liquid fuels, such as gasoline and diesel, pose several problems that solid fuels do not. Firstly, liquid fuels have a higher risk of leakage and spillage, leading to environmental pollution. Secondly, liquid fuels are more flammable and can lead to more dangerous accidents and fires.

Would you classify having control of Vicksburg as an advantage or disadvantage for the union?

Having control of Vicksburg was a significant advantage for the Union during the American Civil War. Vicksburg was a strategic location on the Mississippi River, and the Union's capture of the city in 1863 allowed them to effectively control and blockade the river, splitting the Confederacy in two. It also provided the Union with a base to launch further campaigns into the Confederate territory.

· Ends flooding that help to clean out the silt in rivers, causing them to clog (Energy Laboratory).

· The silt that usually flows down to the Beaches and Estuaries is block by the dam.

· Studies show that the plant decay caused downstream of major dams produces as many greenhouse gasses as more conventional methods of producing electricity.

· Dams are expensive to build, and due to drought may become useless, or produce much less power than originally planned.

· A dam being build in Quebec will end up flooding an area as large as Switzerland (Energy Laboratory).

Can you be in the Army Reserve and be a Ranger at the same time?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you earned your Ranger tab on active duty prior to joining the Army Reserve, you will still continue to be Ranger qualified. If you are simply serving in the US Army Reserve and intent to be sent to Ranger school from your Reserve unit, your chances are slim to none, and you would be better off to join the National Guard and try to get into a Special Forces unit of the National Guard. If you are looking to serve in a Ranger unit of the US Army Reserve, then this will be impossible, as there are no such units in the Army Reserve. The US Army Reserve is composed of training and support units, with all combat arms relegated to the Regular Army and Army National Guard. The one exception to this is the 100th Battalion, 442nd Infantry Regiment, which is an infantry battalion of the US Army Reserve, which is composed of reservists from Hawaii, American Samoa, Saipan, and Guam.

Can you become an army sniper with a GED?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A few months ago, there was a recruiter who posted on this site regularly. According to him, the Army was actual overstrength, and wasn't accepting GEDs at the time - you had to possess at least a high school diploma. That may or may not have changed since then - you'll have to talk to a recruiter to find out. If they're accepting recruits with GEDs again, you'll have as much opportunity to become a sniper as someone with a diploma. However, you don't enlist as a sniper - you'd enlist as... typically an infantryman or cavalry scout... and then you have to prove to your chain of command that it's worth it for them to send you to the sniper course. There's more to it than just being a good shot.
