...During Operation Husky, insufficient command and control (C2) contributed to the ineffective use of fires to support movement and maneuver. The three attributes of mission command: commander’s intent, mutual trust, and understanding will provide the evaluation criteria to illustrate that the Allies fell short in blending the art and science of C2, and other joint functions, between services in Husky. First, explanation will describe command and control, show the Sicily Campaign suffered from a poorly communicated commander’s intent and demonstrated mutual trust did not exist between subordinate commanders. Next, comments will expose how the previous deficiencies led to subordinate commanders’ deficits in operational understanding. Finally, explanation will show how...

...The first course was conducted May 3, 1936, the class was designated as Ausbildungskommando Immans. (#3) Nations such as Peru, Japan, France, Argentina, and Poland also setup parachute forces at this time. The Germans setup organized airborne units known as the Fallschirmjager (German parachutists). (#3) The student of a German airborne school had to master six jumps performed from 400 – 450 feet, these jumps included low light and full combat simulation jumps. They also had to pack their own chutes, unlike their American counterparts. German airborne units estimated to have 6,680 parachutists. The Ju-52 can carry 12 paratroopers and 4 arms containers. The Germans skillfully trained in the art of airborne operations. They had studied and applied all the resources they needed to conduct these types of operations. Along with the Germans were the Italians. They actually started their training in 1927; nine soldiers performed a jump over the airport of Cinisello. Shortly after that jump, they started their first course, enrolling approximately 256 jumpers. The Italians first demonstrated large scale operations near Gefara, Libya, in 1937. (#3) The Italians were reported to have 504 soldiers trained the year that Hitler invaded Poland, enough men to fill two battalions which were led by commissioned and non-commissioned officers. Intrigued with what Germany and Italy were doing with the possibility of moving soldiers into combat by air the Japanese decided they needed...

...The wolf has had an influence on the culture, art, and lore of human society since before historical times. The wolf is one of the most misunderstood animals in all of history. Theirs is a proud, yet sad, history. The wolf and dog are different species but yet have so much in common. Dogs were originally classified as “Canis familiaris”, in 1758. However, in 1993, dogs were reclassified as a subspecies of the gray wolf and renamed “canis lupus familiaris.”While it is true that there have been speculations that dogs may have descended from several species of canines, the wolf appears to ultimately be the ancestor of man’s best friend. The dog and wolf both share the same number of chromosomes (78, arranged in 39 pairs).The dog and the wolf can mate and give life to offspring. There are good chances indeed, that in the past the two species may have interbred, whether because of feral dogs may have escaped from being domesticated or because some wolves may have separated from their pack and started looking for a soul mate. At the same time, the outward appearance of wolves and dogs is markedly different. The wolf’s skeleton is higher and has a more arched spine. The wolf’s legs are heavier in build and are usually longer. Dogs and wolves run differently. A dog runs with a loping, almost casual gait, while wolves run in a springing motion with force from the hind legs propelling them forward. One main difference between the wolf and the dog is the mating; a dog can...

...Introduction The reorganization process of the European distribution systems which is changing from a national to an international network is still going on. The structural transformation in logistics once started with the creation of the Single European Market. Logistics providers began to create pan-European networks in line with the expansion of the European Union. The current adjustments reflect both eastern parts of Europe and the evolvement of a global distribution structure and the accession of the peripheral economies in the central. In addition to these geographic aspects, the logistics markets in European have been influenced by numerous factors dramatically in the technological, financial, and political environment (Europe Real Estate, 2012). Logistics property is targeted by international investors. The volume of total investment currently exceeds €10 billion. Logistics property helps to compensate the poor performance and diversify portfolios of other sectors. Networks of European distribution are still relying on large distribution warehouses, and growth is most likely in the further. ‘Although prime yields up to 13% for opportunistic investments in emerging clusters are rather attractive, yield compression is foreseeable in the near future’ (Europe Real Estate, 2012). In this paper, there is a case, which is talking about a central European decides to operate a privately importing and exporting logistics business in Hungary, will be analysis.

...George Smith Patton, Jr. (November 11, 1885 – December 21, 1945) was a United States Army general, best known for his flamboyant character and his command of the Seventh United States Army, and later the Third United States Army, in the European Theater of World War II. Born in 1885 to a privileged family with an extensive military background, Patton attended the Virginia Military Institute, and later the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. He participated in the 1912 Olympic Modern Pentathlon, and was instrumental in designing the M1913 "Patton Saber". Patton first saw combat during the Pancho Villa Expedition in 1916, taking part in America's first military action using motor vehicles. He later joined the newly formed United States Tank Corps of the American Expeditionary Forces and saw action in World War I, first commanding the U.S. tank school in France before being wounded near the end of the war. In the interwar period, Patton remained a central figure in the development of armored warfare doctrine in the U.S. Army, serving in numerous staff positions throughout the country. Rising through the ranks, he commanded the U.S. 2nd Armored Division at the time of the U.S. entry into World War II. Patton led U.S. troops into the Mediterranean theater with an invasion of Casablanca during Operation Torch in 1942, where he later established himself as an effective commander through his rapid rehabilitation of the demoralized U.S. II Corps. He commanded the Seventh Army during...

...Alaska Brand Audit Brand Inventory History Alaska has been a unique brand for many years. Originally known as Russian America because it was owned by Russia, the origin of the name Alaska is a misconception from the first Russian explorers to venture into Alaskan waters (the original Aleut word "alaxsxaq" literally meaning "object toward which the action of the sea is directed"[Alaska]). When the United States bought Alaska, even though the price was only two cents an acre, it was known for many years as “Seward’s Folly” or “Seward’s Icebox”, after William Seward, the Secretary of State who was primarily responsible for pushing the purchase from Russia through Congress. In the early days Alaska’s brand image was mostly negative. It was known as the “Frozen North”, the “land of ice and snow”, the “land without summer”. Many of these images are from the stories and poetry of Robert Service, Jack London and their contemporaries. A good example of this writing is the poem “Cremation of Sam McGee”— see appendix II, (Service). All these extreme brand images dominated perceptions of Alaska prior to the discovery of gold in the Klondike in the late 1800s. After gold was discovered these negative perceptions were softened somewhat, though they remained rather negative—in large part due to the difficulty of living in the far north. Our Brand Survey We did a brand audit of Alaska to see how well Alaska has worked past these harsh criticisms. To accomplish this we surveyed...

...The domestic dog (Canis lupus familiaris)[2][3] is a subspecies of the gray wolf (Canis lupus), a member of the Canidae family of the mammalian order Carnivora. The term "domestic dog" is generally used for both domesticated and feral varieties. The dog was the first domesticated animal[4] and has been the most widely kept working, hunting, and pet animal in human history. The word "dog" can also refer to the male of a canine species,[5] as opposed to the word "bitch" which refers to the female of the species. MtDNA evidence shows an evolutionary split between the modern dog's lineage and the modern wolf's lineage around 100,000 years ago but, as of 2013, the oldest fossil specimens genetically linked to the modern dog's lineage date to approximately 33,000–36,000 years ago.[4][6] Dogs' value to early human hunter-gatherers led to them quickly becoming ubiquitous across world cultures. Dogs perform many roles for people, such as hunting, herding, pulling loads, protection, assisting police and military, companionship, and, more recently, aiding handicapped individuals. This impact on human society has given them the nickname "man's best friend" in the Western world. In some cultures, however, dogs are also a source of meat.[7][8] In 2001, there were estimated to be 400 million dogs in the world.[9] Most breeds of dogs are at most a few hundred years old, having been artificially selected for particular morphologies and behaviors by people for specific functional roles.
