Operation Barbarossa

Operation Barbarossa

In June 1941 the German Wehrmacht launched Operation Barbarossa: the attack on the USSR and the largest land invasion in recorded history. The titanic battles that followed led to the greatest loss of life ever experienced in a military campaign. Since the end of WWII there has been intense discourse about the key operational and strategic decisions made by the German and Soviet high commands on the East-Front, especially during the critical period from July to September 1941.Operation Barbarossa: the Complete Organisational and Statistical Analysis, and Military Simulation focuses on 1941 - when the USSR came closest to defeat. It includes full analyses of the belligerents' armed forces, weapons, equipment, personnel, transport, logistics, war-production, mobilisation and replacements. Uniquely, the work formalises a sophisticated military simulation methodology extending from the tactical to the strategic level, and applies this methodology to each of the belligerents. Volume I, the first of six volumes, is primarily concerned with the structure of this methodology, but uses many of the events and weapons from Operation Barbarossa as illustrative case studies. The complete work represents the most historically accurate, advanced and comprehensive quantitative analysis yet, of the 1941 campaign on the East-Front.Operation Barbarossa: the Complete Organisational and Statistical Analysis, and Military Simulation is the culmination of over ten years of research and collation. It brings together an immense amount of information from many published and unpublished sources, and presents it with contextual history and analyses. The professional researcher or amateur scholar of WWII is provided with a comprehensive data source, containing the details of all the armed forces involved on the East-Front during 1941, as well as the relevant economic and logistical support. Currently no other single work provides a comparable reference of the actual Soviet and Axis land, air and naval forces involved in what was the most decisive and destructive campaign of WWII.

Operation Barbarossa: the Complete Organisational and Statistical Analysis, and Military Simulation includes full analyses of the Axis and Soviet armed-forces organisation, weapons, equipment, personnel, transport, logistics, war-production, mobilisation and replacements during 1941. Uniquely, the work employs a sophisticated military simulation methodology extending from the tactical to the strategic level, and applies this methodology to each of the belligerents. Volume IIA is concerned with the Wehrmacht. All the significant German weapon systems and combat squads used in the campaign are analysed using the quantitative methodology detailed in Volume I, along with the contextual history. An assessment of each weapon system's inherent 'combat power' is provided, as well as attributes such as the relative anti-tank, anti-personnel and anti-aircraft values. Volume IIA then focuses on the detailed Kriegstarkenachweisungen (KStN, or TOE) for German land units (including those in the West), as well as the unit's actual organisation and equipment. All significant units in the German Army, Waffen SS, Luftwaffe and security forces are included; ranging from the largest panzer divisions, down to small anti-aircraft companies, military-police units, Landesschutzen battalions, and rail-road and construction companies. In all cases the data is presented in detailed tables, using the weapon systems and combat squads previously analysed.

Afghan - Song of the Desert

Afghan - Song of the Desert

Nigel Clayton

Nigel Brian James Clayton
2020
pokkari
Set in South Australia, 1884; this is an epic poem of three Afghan cameleers as they go about delivering supplies along the Birdsville Track. Follow Nak, Shir and Abdul on an adventure across outback Australia, where their pasts catch up to them in many ways. Individual feelings are tested to the limit, insecurities are measured by fear, and desire is outweighed by need. Angry and forgiving, tired and alive, eager and pessimistic. They fight against the conditions, against the hate, and against their pasts. It is a work of fiction, based on the people of the times, where prejudice is very much alive, many Afghans being treated poorly, not just for the colour of their skin, or their religious belief, but because of the expertise that the Afghan cameleers offer the Australian outback, taking work from many Australians. This poem offers an in-depth look at the life of cameleers and the issues surrounding camel strings, shedding a great amount of light on the subject of camels in the outback, opening the eyes of the reader as to the great work that camel strings performed during this time of expansion. Camels were able to out-work bullock teams and horses due to their abilities to adjust to a harsh land and the cameleers were no exception.

This is an epic poem.The orca: they are black and white dolphins, mammals of the sea, warm-blooded creatureswhich are at the top of the food chain for the territory that they hold within their power, manbeing their only predator.Tom is born in the Pacific Ocean, 1862; he is 2.5 metres long and weighs 200kg; a grandspecimen. George Davidson is born of Eden; May, 1863.This is the story of Tom, Killer whale of Twofold Bay, Eden, friend to George Davidson (baywhaler) and others like him: it is based upon a true story that will live in the memory of thecitizens of Eden for eternity, a museum being built in Tom's honour upon his death.For thousands of years, before man recorded such events, killer whales hunted all manner ofbaleen whale in every ocean on this planet, and only once in all that time has it beenwitnessed, and recorded for the prosperity of understanding and knowledge, that they cooperatedwith humans in their hunt for whales. It all took place on the east coast of Australia, Twofold Bay, Eden. And it is here that an extraordinary story unfolds of an unwrittencontract between man and beast, one of nature's most powerful and intelligent, one that ismisunderstood and labelled unkindly.

Epic Poem - Poetry It was a great monopoly and stretched from Holland to Asia - namely Batavia (Jakarta), where the Dutch United East India Company (VOC) headquarters was established - and surrounding countries; a source of great wealth. Trade between these countries was of strategic importance where trade and wealth was concerned, copper, tin, spices, opium and dyes being some of the basic requisites of commerce. From the Cape of Good Hope to Batavia the ships would travel due west for approximately 1,000 Dutch miles before turning north. It was unfortunate for the time, however, that there was no means by which to accurately determine longitude at sea. Eventually land was encountered and this becomes the accepted method of voyage: to seek the sight of land and then head north towards the coast of Sumatra. For almost a hundred years some were lucky enough to cast their eyes upon the west coast of a great mass of land, thought to have been a part of New Guinea. The Zuytdorp departs the Cape of Good Hope, Table Bay, with the ship Kockenge. She pulls ahead of the Kockenge due to her being a much larger and faster vessel. Due to the departure being in April, opposed to the favourable March, the skipper decides to sail until sighting land before turning north for Batavia, to take full benefit of the winds from the west and the voyage then to the north. But catastrophe is all they meet, no success in voyage to be celebrated. The Zuytdorp is shipwrecked. This is the story of the survivors. There is evidence to show that Aboriginals of the Shark Bay area suffer from Porphyria Variegate, a gene mutation that is traceable to the Dutch. It is uncommon and rare, and there is no reason, other than the coupling of an Aboriginal with a survivor of the Zuytdorp, that currently explains the disease being discovered in Australian Aboriginals of WA. I do not declare this to be fact nor fiction: take it as you will.

Dreamtime

This is the story of a man on walkabout, trekking the centre of Australia some 60,000 yearsago. The adventures open the door to myths and legends of Aboriginal society as never readbefore. The myths, legends and wonders of Aboriginal society are many and vast, passed onby word of mouth for tens of thousands of years.If we assume that the 'religion' of these people dates back so far then we have to assume thatcreatures such as the diprotodon, megalania, and thylacoleo, just to name a few, are foreverpresent in their myths and legend. But there are indicators to show that the religion does notdate back so far, or in the least, that religion was an on-going form of practice, for the dingo which only dates back some 5,000 years] seems to be rather active in ritual and commonplace amongst some myths and legends.Whether these stories have changed over the years as word mouth is hard to secure as asource of historical worth] or not, I have taken the liberty, whether justly or otherwise, to putit into story form, so that there appears to be a more rudiment meaning to the entiredevelopment of Aboriginal Dreamtime, which is an eternal way of life and carries with itmany sacred meanings.I can only hope that I have created no ill-will, for my intentions are to provide others with thejoy of understanding in a way which is more effortless then simply passing over one mythafter another in a big thick book.Kulinma Ngulakujaku-kula This book might contain names of people who have since departed this world

This Omnibus contains the following, the complete series of The Templar: The Templar: and the City of GodThe Templar: and the Temple of K ros Part 2]The Templar: and the Cross of Christ Part 3]Amazon Part 4 of The Templar series]BOOK ONEStephen's epic adventure is proceeded by the final days of Constantinople, 1453, as 7,000 inhabitants defend against an army of over 100,000. The historical value of Book One does well to inform the reader as to the way in which the siege came to be successful, and how the defenders held their position so heroically. The characters of fictional value provide great momentum and interest to the story, doing justice to history, never for an instant depriving it of substance.BOOK TWOJust yesterday, Stephen was fighting to defend The City of God against the Muslim invaders; now, in the pursuing days, where living is as fierce by night, as it is by day, he must fight to preserve that, which he does not fully understand.Will he be delivered salvation? Will he secure a fuller understanding of his place in life? His first step of many is to provide aid to others, but over the coming days he must make decisions that will affect the future of mankind, not just the souls he has pledged to protect. The very religion that he holds so dear to his heart will be questioned, as too will the motives behind his decisions. K ros holds the key, the key to everlasting life, the key to the rules of life, and life's meaning. It is for him to decide what will become of his future, and of the Christian religion. At any cost, he must preserve that which he has been passed onto him; the secret of the chest; and above all, the key must always be protected and never surrendered.BOOK THREEStephen, the Knights of the Hospital, and the thirteen orphans, continue with their harsh voyage to the shores of a town called Barcelona, where a ferocious storm greets them, and tragic events begin to unfold. Something so unbelievable is discovered by Stephen as he befriends Father Ambaedian of Barcelona, a 1500 year-old mystery being discovered for what it is and the truth that it hides. Where is the final resting place of the Cross of Christ? What power does it hold? What other name is it known by? What is to become of the thirteen orphans and the knights so bold?BOOK FOURThis final book is the work of fiction, the story of the creation of the women warriors and El Dorado, and a story of Spanish explorers travelling the Amazon River. Tales of El Dorado and the Amazons have flooded the world. Why is it that the Spanish never encountered the true city of the Amazons, or did they?Stories rose upon the tongue of the Spanish invader of a man covered in gold, the Golden Prince. And what is the link between the Golden Prince and the women warriors of the Amazon? Where did the stories come from? This fictional account of the travels of Orellana and Carvajal offers a simple solution to a puzzle that simply cannot be solved: and for what reason?
