WW1 Air Warfare

gas was used as a weapon that choked and blinded the enemy. also, airplanes were beginning to be used. artillery, tanks, rifles, and machine guns were weapons used, but I'm not positive if they were new.

Sarajevo was the main city of Bosnia which, in 1914, was ruled by Serbia.

During the war a book was published with his name on it as author, but it was largely ghost-written, and was a propaganda effort. The ghost-writer did talk with the Red Baron, and made use of his after-action reports. It was called "Der Rote Kampffleugger", "The Red Battle Flier". Its been translated into English and might still be in print, I do not know.

To protect the bombers (and sometimes to protect reconnaissance aircraft). Fighters fight the bomber's escorts; escorts defend the bombers. Fighters don't intentionally fight try to fight the escorts...it's just that they have to fight their way thru them in order to reach (kill) the bombers.

The German's used Zepplins. Zepplin was a German company owned by Count Von Zepplin.

As annoying as it might seem, it was World War One that gave the airplanes the major incentives to improve and diversify. Before 1914, aircraft were noisy curiosities, with no real functions in society. The war effort used them for combat, but also developed aerial recon work, communications, transport and propaganda purposes. World War Two helped, too.

Canada began conscription in 1916-1917, since volunteers declined severely. This was unsucessful, since the French opposed this greatly and everyone else didn't want to be forced into it. the governemtn had no way to ensure all the registered men would actually go to the trainning so 20 000 instead of 400 000 men showed up.

Almost certainly an Australian mchine gunner on the ground, who fired at the Baron's low-flying plane. This seemed apparent from the angle of the wound, with the bullet traveling upward through the body from the entrance wound in his side. But the man credited with the victory at the time, and still the official victor, was Canadian pilot Captain Arthur "Roy" Brown. Brown was a flight leader and the Baron was behind and shooting up one of his inexperienced pilots, when Brown made a desperate dive and got off a single short burst as he skidded by and below the Baron. But the Baron flew on for another two minutes after Brown got off his quick burst, something unlikely to have been possible given the nature of the wound, and how quickly the Baron expired after crashing. No one wanted to believe a lowly, mud-caked, foot-slogging, ground-pounding enlisted man could bring the Baron low - except, of course, the guy who actually did the shooting. This was most likely Australian Sergeant Cedric Popkin, or Gunner W. J. "Snowy" Evans, or Gunner Robert Buie, both also Australians.
No one is really sure. It was decided that it was either: -Snowy Evans (Australian) -Roy Brown (Canadian) -Sgt. Popkin (?) The History Channel recently did an analysis of that question and concluded that it was the result of ground to air fire, not air to air combat., It is quite possible that he was shot down by an unknown rifleman from the ground.

Aerial observation, fighting each other & attacking forces on the ground.

Nationalism led to the assassination of the Archduke Ferdinand; Ferdinand had selected a Serbian national holiday to parade through Sarajevo, stoking nationalist distaste. Also, Germany was the revisionist power in opposition to the traditionally pre-eminent France and Britain. The desire of Germany to prove itself could be labelled a nationalist element.

Very often people from areas or nations that were conquered by ancient Rome were allowed to serve as auxiliary troops which supported the Roman legions. Rome had added European nations that were near two major rivers, the Rhine and the Danube. Germanic tribes could be found in and around these frontiers of the Roman Empire. A good number of Germans were part of the empire. Not all Germanic peoples were part of the empire and many remained hostile to it. Germanic peoples who decided to be allies of the Romans formed auxiliary troops, which were given a tribute. The Visigoths were allowed to settle in the lower Danube area to escape attacks from the Huns from the East. Sometimes they fought alongside the Romans and sometimes against them. In the Late Empire the Romans had a shortage of soldiers, especially after many veterans were killed at the Battle of Adrianople in 378. Because of this, the Romans hired many Germanic soldiers as mercenaries.

The fighter planes in India are Sukhoi 27/30K, MiG-29, Mirage 2000 series, Mig-23/27, MiG-25 interceptor, Jaguar IS/IB, MiG-21, Canberra....

India is trying to buy 126 planes in future ( mig35,F-16,F-18,rafel )

He says it's good to know how to read because slade didn't know how to read and he drank a beer without reading it and it turned out to be Deadly Poison

Since the German Empire wanted Mexico to help it to rage war against U.S., Mexico, in turn, will get back some of the land that she lost from the last century

The Battle of the Coral Sea, early May 1942. Richard V. Horrell WW 2 Connections.com I would have to disagree on a technicality and say Pearl Harbor. We fired on a Japanese mini sub trying to infiltrate Pearl Harbor but a sub, especially a mini sub, isn't really a surface ship is it?

In December 1905, while the ship makers in Portsmouth were hard on work on the HMS Dreadnought, an ageing German general was putting the finishing touches to a plan of war. His name was Count Alfred Von Schlieffen, the most senior general in the German army.

Schlieffen was not at that moment intending to go to war. He was simply working out how Germany could fight her enemies if ever it became necessary.
As you know, Germany's main enemies were France and Russia, and this is what made Schlieffen's task difficult. If Germany fought France, Russia would attack Germany from the east. To protect the country, Schlieffen would then have to split his army into two and fight the war on two fronts - east and west. No general wants to do this because he can only use half an army to fight each enemy.

The plan that Schlieffen made in 1905 aimed to avoid a war on two fronts. He said that although the Russian armies were big, the roads and railways in Russia were so bad that the Russians would take six weeks to get into position for fighting Germany. So if war began,, the whole German army should invade France by travelling at high speed through Belgium and northern France to capture Paris. Having defeated France withing six weeks, the German army would them be sent to the other side of Europe to fight the Russians who would still be getting ready.
It was a simple plan but unfortunately it really made a war on two fronts even more likely. Schlieffen took it for granted that if Russia attacked Germany, France would also attack. But suppose that France decided not to help Russia, and to keep out of the war, the Plan meant that Germany would attack France anyway. Schlieefen had made sure that any war fought by Germany would be a big one.

Machine gun, airplane, rifles, swords/knives, submarines, bullets, chains, barbed wire, tanks

Both the Allied and Central powers saw the usefulness of Aircraft BUT mostly as artillery spotters. It was only when the pilots began carrying pistols and rifles to attack other reconnaissance aircraft that the use of aircraft as armed weapons of war began.

I can only answer for the French Air Force where the famous Antoine de St Exupery (writer of "The Little Prince") was 44 when he was shot down flying his unarmed P38 over the mediterranean sea in 1944.
