Military Terminology

Commander Cody gets killed by Genral Grevius.It is a part never ever shown in star wars.Obi Wan and Commander Cody went to fight Genral Grevius and Genral Grevius stabs Commander Cody.I found out from Leo Star Wars #1

That can't be canon because Commander Cody gives the order to shoot Obi Wan Kenobi when Order 66 comes in. Plenty of things get taken out, such as Shaak Ti's death in Episode III aboard General Greivous' ship. (I believe her canon death is during The Force Unleashed at the hands of the Apprentice).

The force or forces used to deny hostile intelligence forces the opportunity to gain information about your plans and operations.

The Taxi cabs of Paris provided 4,000 reinforcements to the Marne bu 8 September 1914.

A brigade is military unit consisting of a variable number of combat battalions or regiments.
The typical NATO standard brigade consists of approximately 4,000 to 5,000 troops, but the number of men in a brigade is not specified or fixed.

The United States used the Lockheed U2 and Convair PB4Y Privateer to gather intelligence about the Soviet Union and China before the advent of spy satellite technology.

A legion was the basic unit of a Roman army. It consisted of roughly 5,000 infantry, if at full strength. It was divided into cohorts which were further divided into centuries. In addition to the infantry there were also cavalry and auxiliaries attached to each legion.

Forward defence in the Vietnam war. This was when Australia moved there defence forward, effectively becoming attacking, so that they wouldn't be defending in there own country, they would be defending somewhere else. This method of defence basically gave Australia more time, and wiped out a few 100 communists

hope it helped :)

In his book called On War, Carl von Clausewitz presents his theory that there are three forces that drive a war. The form a trinity he calls chance, passion, and rationality. This should not be confused with his ideas on war itself. Here in his trinity he speaks in very broad terms.

If you mean the Concord Hymn, then that was written by Ralph Waldo Emerson, there are different versions of that poem but that is the main one

Invasion

Drogheda is a town in Eastern Ireland. It was actually besieged twice: once during the Irish Rebellion in 1641 by O'Neill and his insurgents, who failed to take the town, and again, more famously in 1649 by Oliver Cromwell in his Conquest of Ireland: He did take the town, and massacred most of its habitants: the entire military garrison, any Catholic clergy and many of the civilians.

Supposedly a term used by Germans when describing the fighting spirit of the Marines they battled at Belleau Wood, France in June of 1918 during WWI. However this is the history taught by the Marines and may be nothing more than a legend.

Since ancient times, marines were soldiers carried on warships for boarding. By the time of the American Revolution, British warships had Royal Marines for boarding, and for preventing mutinies, so the Continental Navy had them too. The Continental Marines became the United States Marines, and later they became corps-strength. Boarding actions are unlikely now, and mutinies are less of a possibility, but countries with navies still have marines for amphibious operations. The United States has the most (200,000).

Guerrilla tactics (AKA Guerrilla Warfare) is a term used for any kind of tactics that aren't used by a conventional army. Such tactics Include Hit and Run attacks where a small group of soldiers will open up a barrage of gunfire and explosives on their targets then quickly leave. Attacks like this are usually carried out on convoys, or small military outpost's/camps. The point of Hit and run warfare is not to take a position but rather to weaken your opponent by killings it's men and destroying it's supplies. Other tactics that COULD be considered Guerrilla warfare are the use of unconventional traps. Such as the Punji stick trap that was widely utilized by the NVA a Vietcong during the Vietnam conflict. A punji stick trap is a trap that is made by digging a hold about six to eight feet deep. then placing sharp jagged objects at the bottom with the sharp ends sticking straight up towards the top of the hole (during Vietnam they used sharpened bamboo called punji sticks). Usually theses sticks were hosed down in urine, covered in feces (human or animal) or drenched in dead animals blood, sometimes even leaving the dead rotting animals in the hole. This was to increase the chance of infection. The hole was then covered by foliage so when a soldier stepped on it he fell to a horrible fate. For other examples of Guerrilla warfare you could study up on the tactics used by the NCA/Vietcong and also the tactics of insurgents in the middle east. Or if possible the tactics taught to the US Green Beret Special Forces Units.

A silver colored Eagle with both of his wings fully extended. This is also the insignia of a US Navy Captain. A USN Captain is the same as a USA Colonel.

Not to be confused with a USA Captain, which in the USN is a Lieutenant (two silver bars attached together).

Soldiers that fight at sea are most commonly referred to as Marines in English speaking countries.

In other countries the names for Marine units commonly translate into English as Amphibious, Naval or Coastal Infantry.

The best solution I have found for unlimited work tasks are ''To do:'' lists. On Fridays, I list the '''major''' things I have to do for the next week on ledger paper by days of the week. I know when I leave Friday that I have the most things covered for the next week. On Monday, as I accomplish one of the items from that day, I mark off that task and start the next one. My phone rings constantly; listing and marking off completed tasks is essential. This is sort of like an abbreviated version of the Stephen Covey 7 Habits of Highly Effective People training but not as structured. Plus, seeing things I have accomplished and marked off as done encourages me to keep going.

Busby was the name of a large round fur hat that was not very tall, such as the French cavalry in the Napoleonic War. The Bearskin hat was a tall fur hat worn by grenadier infantry of the many countries during the Napoleonic War. IT was also called the Busby. Today you can see it being worn by the British Palace Guards while on duty and on parade. "Ushanka" was the name of the Russian fur hat that was worn by their soldiers under their helmets or alone. Fancier designs were worn by Russian generals. They looked like the hat common among Cossacks.

An artillery shell filled with lead balls and a small bursting charge in the base that propelled the balls forward, acting like a shotgun cartridge. It was usually time-fused to burst 10-20 feet in the air (although a percussion fuse could be used) and was most effective against personnel and horses in the open. It was the main shell used by the Royal Artillery before the war, and remained so for field guns.

It is a fragment from an exploded artillery shell, mine or bomb. It is not for military medical purposes, a projectile such as gravel or splinters caused by an explosion which may or may not wound or kill. This exception though seldom used today, once excluded the issuance of a Purple Heart Medal. (In Vietnam for example, the Marine Corps sent its troops home to the States after three Purple Hearts, and this exclusion was used to return them to the lines without a third award.)
