My destination was 26 miles off the coast of North Carolina. Aboard a five crew, eight diver boat, I was set to explore the USS Indra, a landing craft repair ship that became home to an artificial reef and an abundance of sea life in 1992. At the dock, after several grueling trips back-and-forth between the van and boat, I finally loaded my tank and scuba gear and was ready to dive. However, there was one thing left between me and my dive, the 26 mile boat ride. This marathon-long ride was the most

that made it that way was the vehicles, the Dodge WC Ambulance, M3 Stuart tank, and M4 Sherman tank were the main vehicles used in battle for the United States.The Dodge WC Ambulance,M3 Stuart,and M4 Sherman tank was not the only vehicles used during the war, there were a massive amount of different vehicle types as the war progressed on because of countries trying to out do the others. The main types of vehicles used were Tanks,Airplanes,Ships,Transport,and Self propelled guns which the United States

failure caused a breach in the joint it sealed, allowing pressurized hot gas from within the solid rocket motor to reach the outside and impinge upon the adjacent attachment hardware and external fuel tank. This led to the separation of the right-hand attachment and the structural failure of the external tank. Due to this shuttle was thrown sideways into the Mach 1.8 wind stream and broke

Americans to walk right over them. What ensued would turn into the bloodiest battle of the pacific war, and the second bloodiest battle of WWII following only D-Day. Immediately following the orders off Vice Admiral Richmond Kelly Turners to “land the landing force”(Leckie 67)!, 10 battleships began firing on the Island of Okinawa driving the defending soldiers into the ground; either into their tunnels, pill boxes (or miniature above ground bunkers) and just into the ground in general. The Japanese’s

An invasion of France would also significantly reduce the threat from U-Boats, the submarines that patrolled the Atlantic in so-called wolf packs destroying Allied shipping. Although technological and engineering advances meant that craft in the Atlantic Ocean could be kept safe from U-Boats the threat still existed. Many U-Boat pens were along the French Atlantic coast and were used as docks for the Nazi submarines. The invasion of mainland Europe and the liberation of

D-Day is an important day in history for all countries involved in World War II, it marked the turning point in the war for the Allies victory. Many modern movies and people focus on the amphibious landings onto the beaches of Normandy. Although the paratroopers of D-Day are not as idolized, they played an important and influential role in the outcome of D-Day. One area of discrepancy between experts is how well paratroopers performed on D-Day. Although paratroopers had many obstacles and setbacks

The next Great War, World War II was one of the bloodiest battle we had. This war was fought from 1939 to 1945 and there was two sides. The allies and the axis powers, the allies are Britain, Soviet Union, and the United States. Also the axis powers are Germany, Italy, and Japan are the enemy. The war started because Germany tried to invade Poland. The invasion was not successful for the help of Britain and France . Some other events occurred that made Britain and France declared war on Germany.

decided that it would be better to choose a single main landing where an immense amount of firepower and soldiers could be concentrated. The invasion site needed to be close to at least one major port and airbase to allow for efficient supply lines. The decision came down to two sites, the Pas de Calais across the Strait of Dover, and the beaches of Cotentin. Of the two landings it was decided that the beaches of Cotentin would be the best landing site for Operation Overlord. Months ahead of time

boarded ships, transports, and aircraft all along the southern and southwestern coasts of England. All was ready for one of history's most dramatic and momentous events. Dummy troops, false radio traffic, dummy landing craft in the bay of the Thames River, huge but unoccupied camps, dummy tanks-all contributed to the deception. Although the Allied commanders could not know it until their troops were ashore, their deception had been remarkably successful. As time for the invasion neared, the German's
