ACG WebOps (26 November - 2 December 2006)Jim H. Moreno | December 04, 2006 | 0 comments | Print | E-mail "The battle of Talana Hill was the first major battle during the Second Anglo-Boer War. It was a British victory, but one that had almost no impact on the course of the war, which began very badly for the British"
A Brief History About The Original Jeep - Article Feeder Blog "While the Jeep is famous in its history of serving the US military there is some misunderstanding concerning who created the original Jeep. Many incorrectly attribute the development of the first Jeep to Willys. The true inspiration of the first Jeep design came from a small and relatively unknown company by the name of the American Bantam Car Company based in Butler, PA."
Documentary Film Press Release for "Outpost Harry" - My Greek Odyssey "More than 88,000 rounds of Chinese artillery would pound Outpost Harry—a tiny Korean hilltop no bigger than Times Square, 425 yards ahead of the front line. Defended each night by a single company of American or Greek soldiers, the Chinese had anticipated an easy capture. Over a period of just over a week, vast waves of Chinese Communist Forces would flood into Harry’s trench lines–more than 13,000 soldiers in all. And yet each of the five companies ordered to hold Outpost Harry, when its turn came, held it."
Chinese Communist Revolution - Military History Podcast "Mao and the Chinese Communist Party’s victory was both psychological and physical. The psychological is a combination of power vacuum in rural China, the incompetency of the GMD, and the populist policies of Mao. The majority of this episode is my opinion on why the final reason is the most important. The physical relies on 3 major campaigns conducted by the Communists: Liaoshen, Huaihai, and Pingjin. The final few minutes of this episode discuss this Chinese Civil War (1945-1949)."
