The Civil War is a harsh part of American history but the life of the soldiers was a real struggle. Most people know that the soldiers had a miserable life but it was far worse than people assume. Weapons weren’t easy to use, training was like starting from scratch and the camp life was miserable. Whether is was the North or the South, life wasn’t easy. Therefore, during the Civil War, the soldiers continued the courageous and daring fight in spite of poorly constructed weapons, labored training, and dreadful living conditions.

Several other techniques were developed in direct relation to the establishment of the fire base. Mutually supporting fires was the practice providing fire support to near by fire bases. Whenever a new base was established, forward observers and liaison officers contacted nearby bases and planned fires to support one another if attacked. These mutually supporting fire bases would plan targets near the defensive peremiter of other fire bases within their range. This practice would prove invauable and save countless lives in the battle for LZ Gold.

On average a violent crime takes place somewhere in the United States every minute of every day. When an incident such as an active shooter, terrorist attack or riot occurs, we look to law enforcement for help. The 1033 program permits the transfer of unwanted military-grade equipment from the Department of Defense to federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies to increase their efficacy when responding to these emergencies. Recently, however, a movement to demilitarize law enforcement in America started drawing national attention after police officers demonstrated their use of such equipment during the Ferguson, Missouri riot on August 9, 2014. Since then, President Obama has shown interest in eliminating the 1033 program with bill H.R. 1232, however little empirical research has been conducted on the suitability of military-grade weapons and equipment in law enforcement as well as the possible impact bill H.R. 1232 might have on local police agencies across the state of Michigan.

SNC’s five paragraph order contained most of the pertinent information required to conduct the mission, but was punctuated with filler words and the occasional use of nonsensical terms such as “armed with small ammo arms (sic).” These deficiencies detracted from the order and made it difficult to understand. SNC tasked his fire teams with navigation, aid and litter, and ammunition transportation. During movement to the objective, SNC’s squad became strung out and dispersion between the first fire team and the ammunition bearing fire team was approximately 20 meters. SNC did not assess dispersion during movement and did not position himself in a manner where he could effectively manage his squad. During enemy contact, SNC stood to the rear

The Seattle Times editorial board’s article “It’s time to ban assault-style weapons, high-capacity magazines” expresses a strong support of the Californian laws that incorporate a magazine ban. The article calls for not only these bans, but also background checks for ammunition sales. It also discusses the past action of Initiative 594 which mandated stricter background checks on gun buyers. While this and many other actions work, there must be a renewed effort to ban “tactical” assault-styled weapons and also the possession of ammunition magazines holding more than 10 rounds. The article discusses how Americans are free to own guns and that this freedom is not unlimited. There is also a mention of the San Bernardino shooting, in which the

Field Artillery traces its history back to 1775. “However, artillery as we know it today is a proud profession that traces its origins and honorable traditions to centuries before the birth of Christ (Unknown).” In the 18th century Frederick the Great of Prussia began mounting cannoneers on the backs of horses. This in turn gave the Field Artillery great mobility and the ability to accompany cavalry. “With the development of trucks, horse artillery and horse drawn artillery evolved into the towed artillery, as we know today (Unknown).” The American field artillery has answered the call to arms in every major war and conflict, evolving our technology, equipment, and cannoneers to employ these changes in battle.

Few other American gunmakers have been more dedicated to the age-old and highly accurate style of rifle than the Massachusetts manufacturer. Even fewer gun company's win Savage's kudos for balancing price and performance in nearly everything it rolls off the factory floor. While it has recently expanded into producing more contemporary semi-automatic rifles, its bolt-actions still by and large take center stage. And Savage continues expanding and evolving to fill every niche in the turn-bolt world.

Police technology continues to evolve and become better. One area that has seen a lot of recent attention is the use of less lethal weapons by law enforcement. Less lethal weapons are described as weapons that are alternatives to traditional firearms. Some examples of less lethal weapons are Tasers, OC spray, Batons, and hand combative techniques (CITATION). Less lethal weaponry still have the potential to cause serious bodily harm or death; however they are a safer alternatives to subdue non-compliant suspects than the use of firearms. The use of these weapons by untrained civilians may look violent in person or on video but they actually save lives and reduce injury to suspects and officers alike. As mentioned by (CITATION), officers have

Independent, reliable, and multi-talented, SNO has hit the ground running and performed extremely well as a firing battery executive officer. During 10th Marines Regiment FIREX, while serving as the position commander, MRO expertly supervised over 15 emplacements and displacements, both day and night, and the accurate and safe firing of over 1,000 HE projectiles, all culminating in The Battery earning recognition as 2nd place during the Regimental Top Gun Competition. Over of the course of the exercise, accolades received were a direct result of SNO’s force of will and absolute drive for success. Additionally, Lieutenant Holliday made effective use of platoon commanders, which enabled him to remain well aware of all battery issues and provide

On 20Jun18, Sergeant Michael Cummins was the Team Leader (TL) of the department’s Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team during a High Risk Search Warrant (HRSW) and High Risk Arrest Warrant (HRAW) at 253 Toad Road, Dowelltown, Tn. 37059 for TRAVIS PATTERSON, DOB: 09Nov88. Upon arrival to the structure, the entry team ingressed to the alpha side of the structure from the bravo side. Trooper Christopher Logan moved to Final Assault Point (FAP) 1 along with Trooper Heath Daniels as his cover man to place the energetic charge on the alpha side door. As Troopers Logan and Daniels were placing the energetic charge onto the door, Sergeant Cummins called for the vehicles to deploy to the alpha side and stage in their designated locations. Once

What happens during a nuclear bombing? ‘Grace Period’ and ‘Special Weapons Primer’ gives us insight on the occurances shortly after a bombing. ‘Grace Period’ reveals an inside view of the event, while ‘Special Weapons Primer’ supplies scientific evidence. The bombings can be identified by some very characteristic signs. Nuclear bombs are lethal. If you are close enough to observe the effects of the bombing, you will likely die.

The military technology industry is a constantly evolving field that aims to produce the latest and greatest devices to be used to defend our country. There is a lot pressure to create the next best thing, as the nation with the better equipment will have the upper hand in war. When we create technology to defend ourselves from the tech of another force, our technology is making us safer. The main reason behind this is if our military proves to have the latest and greatest in weapons and surveillance technology, then there will be less of a risk of a target attack from others. The only issue with this is that there is an endless cycle of the need for improvement. This is because nations are constantly making tech improvements in response to
