Full textAbstract:
During the Nazi occupation there were formed 23 National Police Battalions in Lithuania. The history of some of those battalions has been deeply analysed and published by historians. The history of the 253rd National Police Battalion is a "blank spot" in the Lithuanian Police Battalion's history. The battalion operated 14 months: from May 1943, to August 1944. About a year it participated in fights against the Soviet and Polish partisans. The battalion distinguished itself by little losses in those fights. The servicemen of the battalion preserved discipline and fighting efficiency to the end of its existence. Except the fact, that the battalion participated in some forced labour round-ups organised by the Nazis in Švenčioniai district, it did not commit any major war crime. The battalion did not participate the persecution or annihilation of either Jews or any other nationality civilian people.

Full textAbstract:
The Vilnius region Lithuanian battalions were formed between July and September 1941 from Lithuanian troops of the 29th Territorial Riflemen’s Corps of the Red Army, who were taken prisoners of war. Before October that year six police battalions were formed in the Vilnius region: the First, Second, Third, Fourth battalions and the Railway Guard Battalion (which later got No 6) and the Gardinas Battalion (later under No 15). In these battalions and other self-defence subunits 3,000 troops served then. In the spring 1942, the 254th Police Battalion was formed in the Vilnius region. The police battalions, which served in Vilnius, most often guarded various military objects (warehouses, railway bridges, bridges, barracks etc.). Almost all battalions formed in Vilnius in 1941 (except the Railway Guard Battalion and the Gardinas Battalion) got involved in the Holocaust in the autumn that year (they participated in moving Jews from their homes to the ghetto, served as ghetto guards, convoyed the Jews who were driven from Lukiškės prison to Paneriai to be exterminated, stood guard during mass executions). The First Vilnius Battalion also took part in the massacre of Jews in Paneriai on 5 April 1943, and the liquidation of the Vilnius ghetto labour camps (in Bezdonys, Kena) in the summer 1943. At the end of 1941 and the first half of 1942 almost all Vilnius region battalions (except the First and the Railway Guard battalions) were sent from Lithuania: the Third and No 254 were deployed in Belarus and the Forth in Ukraine (the Second battalion was sent to Poland to guard Maidanek concentration camp). There they were tasked with guarding military objects (railways, roads, bridges, PoW camps) as well as fighting Soviet partisans. In Belarus, the Lithuanian battalions together with German, Latvian and other subunits took part in burning villages and shooting civilians who supported Soviet partisans. Due to the lack of reliable sources it is impossible to establish an exact figure of the villages burnt, Soviet partisans and the local civilians killed by the Lithuanian battalions. It is possible to suppose that the Vilnius region battalions killed several scores of partisans and their supporters. The Third Battalion, which fought in Belarus for almost three years, led the most intensive fight against the partisans. It also sustained the greatest losses. Several scores of the battalion’s troops were killed and injured in the fights against the partisans. The losses of other battalions were smaller. It can be supposed that the total number of the Vilnius region battalion troops killed did not exceed a hundred. Some losses were due to the fact that some troops were taken PoWs and deserted. Desertion was characteristic of all battalions and was on the increase in 1943 and 1944. During the time when the Vilnius region battalions were in operation several hundreds of troops deserted. The number of the battalions’ troops (except the Forth Battalion) who were taken prisoners by the Soviet army and partisans was smaller. All the Vilnius region battalions ceased to exist before the autumn of 1944. Most of them were disbanded in the East Prussia (in Tilžė) in the summer of 1944. Most of the Lithuanian troops were sent to various German air defence subunits. At the end of war they were taken prisoners by the Soviets or the allied forces.

Full textAbstract:
This paper deals with the history of the 5th Battalion of the Lithuanian Police. It can be divided into several stages: a) the formation of the battalion and training in Kaunas (September-November 1941); b) service in the Pskov and Novgorod regions in Russia (December 1941-early 1944); c) service in Lithuania and Latvia (spring-autumn 1944). During all its time in service, the battalion guarded railways and military objects, and the Baltic coastline. Some companies served on the front line, were surrounded and fought Soviet partisans, though the losses were not heavy: several scores of troops were killed or wounded, some deserted. Unlike other Lithuanian police battalions, the 5th Battalion did not commit any war crimes and were not involved in killings of Jews and other civilians. The disbanding of the battalion was painful: seven troops were court martialed by the Nazis, 11 sent to hard labor camps and prisons; others were transferred to the 13th and 256th battalions. The Nazis did not resort to such drastic measures against any other Lithuanian police battalion.

Full textAbstract:
On the basis of archival documents and historical literature, the article attempts to recreate the history of the two Lithuanian police battalions, in Šiauliai and Panevėžys, the most important stages in their activities and events, to reveal the similarities and differences, personnel, and suffered losses. The history of those battalions has not been studied specially either by Lithuanian or foreign historians. Basing on the analysis of the facts found, conclusions are being drawn up. The history of both battalions has more similarities rather than differences. Both of them were formed at the same time – in August 1941. Šiauliai and Panevėžys were the only cities in Lithuania, except for Kaunas and Vilnius, where the units of the battalion size were formed. Both battalions were founded on a voluntary basis. The participants of the June 1941 Uprising and the officers of the parapolice troops, riflemen, the former Lithuanian Army officers and non-commissioned officers mostly started their service here. The battalion fighters guarded the objects of military importance, railways and big industrial enterprises. In the summer and autumn 1941, both battalions together with other German and Lithuanian police units, participated in the Jewish massacre in the Šiauliai, Panevėžys and Telšiai counties. About 180 fighters from both battalions could participate directly in the massacre. The partisans of the Šiauliai and Panevėžys battalions would confront Soviet partisans very seldom; therefore sustained casualties were not heavy. Heavier losses constituted the fighters who were absent without leave. The Šiauliai and Panevėžys battalions operated during the entire period of their existence in Lithuania (except for smaller units of battalions, transferred to other Lithuanian police battalions) and were not sent for service outside the territory of Lithuania. The Šiauliai battalion operated until the end of the Nazi occupation and was dissolved at the end of the summer of 1944. The Panevėžys battalion was disbanded in January 1943, transferring the greater part of the fighters for service in the Šiauliai battalion.

Full textAbstract:
The history of the 15th Lithuanian Police Battalion can be divided into several stages: 1) the formation of the battalion in Vilnius (July 1941); 2) the service in Belarus (end of July 1941—June 1944); 3) its withdrawal to Lithuania and disbanding (July 1944). Throughout its existence the 15th Battalion was stationed almost exclusively in Belarus, guarding the railways and other objects of military importance, conveying prisoners of war, and fighting against Soviet partisans. Unlike other Lithuanian police battalions, this battalion did not commit any war crimes and was not involved in the killings of Jews. The only exception was when a platoon led by Lieutenant J. Stankus took part in the execution of 20 Belarusian supporters of Soviet partisans in Dereein in August 1942. Although the battalion took an active part in anti-partisan actions in 1942 and 1943, it did not sustain great losses: several fighters were killed in fights against partisans or due to accidents, an unknown number was injured, and several scores deserted the battalion. The battalion was distinguished by its discipline and training. Following the disbanding of the battalion, some of the fighters went on to serve in the Homeland Defence formations or German military units in Germany and Italy.

Full textAbstract:
The history of the 3(11) battalion can be divided into two periods: the formation and activities of the battalion in Kaunas between August 1941 and April 1942; and the battalion’s activities in Ukraine, Belarus and the time it was disbanded between May 1942 and the autumn of 1943. The battalion was formed in Kaunas at the beginning of September 1941. It guarded various military buildings, PoWs at work and the Jews ghetto in Vilijampolė. The troops of the battalion did not directly take part in the killings of the Jews. Later it was deployed in Ukraine and Belarus, where it guarded military objects and fought against Soviet partisans. The battalion was especially active in fights against the partisans and punitive operations in the district of Zhitomir and the Pripet Marches in the second half of 1942 and the beginning of 1943. During those operations the battalion might have destroyed several villages and killed scores of local residents who supported the partisans. They did not participate in the killing of Jews in Ukraine and Belarus. In the fights against the partisans and units of the Red Army the battalion suffered losses: several troops were killed, many injured and about 100 troops deserted the battalion. The battalion ceased to exist as a separate unit in the autumn of 1943. Part of the troops were included in various German units, some returned to Lithuania or deserted. A sizeable number of the troops of the 11th battalion joined the 258th Lithuanian police battalion in the spring of 1944 and served there until the autumn of 1944.

Full textAbstract:
During the years of the German occupation (1941–1944) military-police units under the jurisdiction of the Nazis, which were called auxiliary police service, security, self-preservation battalions and other names, were formed. Some of the Lithuanian military-police formations took part in the killings in Lithuania, Belarus and Ukraine. In Kaunas in August 1941 the Second Auxiliary Police Service Battalion was formed (leader Major A. Impulevičius), which together with the German Eleventh Reserve Police Battalion was sent by the Nazis to the Minsk district in Belarus to fight against Soviet partisans. All together, there were 485 troops, commissioned and non-commissioned officers. About 450 troops of the Lithuanian battalion, all three companies, participated in the killings.

Full textAbstract:
In this article, the history of the Prince Sviatoslav Battalion which was a part of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army Ivan Bogun Detachment of the “Turiv” Group is investigated. For the first time in the historiography the battalion’s organizational structure and its evolution are thoroughly studied, as well as structure of companies, consisted of: “Viter” (later “Orlyk”), “Batko Bogun”, “Zaberezhny” and “Svitlana” NCO School. The battalion’s numerical strength ranged between 425 and 586 men. In addition, warfare waged by companies of the battalion against the German occupiers and Polish partisan units in the modern Volodymyr-Volynsky and Turiysk districts is described. These were numerous clashes with the Nazi occupational units from Volodymyr-Volynsky garrison (German troops and local police), road ambushes, and the massive assaults on the Polish Resistance strongpoint in the town of Kupychiv. Finally, reasons of the battalion disband in the early 1944 are analysed. They include partial demobilization and reorganization of units in order to prepare for future crossing of the German-Soviet frontline. In the middle of January, 1944 two new companies were created on the basis of the Prince Sviatoslav Battalion elements.

Full textAbstract:
During the Cuban missile crisis, the U.S. Marine Corps deployed a Hawk air defense missile battery from the 3d Light Antiaircraft Missile (LAAM) Battalion to Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, to protect the U.S. naval base from a surprise low-level air attack by Soviet and Cuban aircraft. The battalion was alerted and airlifted from Twentynine Palms, California, to Cherry Point, North Carolina, with its Battery C deployed forward into Cuba. The deployment validated the readiness of the Corps’ LAAM battalions to employ the Hawk system in support of expeditionary forces. However, the story of the LAAM battalions and deployment of 3d LAAM to Guantánamo Bay is not well known or documented because few official records of the LAAM battalions from the early 1960s exist. This article uses Marine Corps Base Twentynine Palms’s newspaper to provide context along with veterans’ first-hand experiences to fill in the details of the LAAM battalions before and during the Cuban missile crisis.

The aim of the publication is to build a general scheme of the history of the Azov Volunteer Battalion, using the contents of the Azov Battalion Archive of unregulated documentation in general and internal battalion orders in particular. The research methodology involves the application of the principles of historicism, the usage of studying whole historical sources and being objective. Descriptive method, methods of classification and systematization as well as methods of analysis and synthesis have been used. The source base of the study is based on internal battalion orders and other materials of the archive of unregulated documentation of the Azov Battalion. The scientific novelty is conditioned by the high source value of the materials of the Azov Battalion Archive, which are currently completely unexplored within the academic science; these materials are introduced into scientific circulation for the first time. The conclusions of the study are the construction the general scheme of a history of the Azov Volunteer Battalion from the establishment of the unit on May 5, 2014 on the basis of the training and mobilization center "Cossack Legion" in the actually squatted building in the center of the Ukrainian capital to expand the unit to the regiment of September 17, 2014. Important milestones in the battalion's history are the redeployment of the unit from Kyiv to the Azov coast, participation in hostilities in the summer and autumn of 2014, including the liberation of Mariupol on June 13 and Mar’inka on August 4, and participation in the Ilovaysk operation in August and the defense of Mariupol in early September of that year.

Full textAbstract:
Using the 4th Tank Battalion as a case study, this article argues that U.S. Marine tankers in World War II possessed a uniquely American mechanical aptitude that allowed them to make necessary modifications to their tanks that were crucial to combat effectiveness in the Pacific. Having grown up during the Great Depression and possessing a “use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without,” mentality, these tankers recognized what could be done to improve their tanks, and applying American ingenuity, fabricated armor and tank-to-infantry communications systems, among other innovations to enhance their abilities as warfighters. While this trait was not necessarily unique to the 4th Tank Battalion, their leaders, Captain Robert M. Neiman and Lieutenant Henry L. Bellmon in particular, encouraged such activity, and the battalion was certainly among the most mechanically creative among the Marine tank battalions in the Pacific.

Full textAbstract:
The article analyses the activities of the 2 and 252 Lithuanian police battalions during the Nazi occupation. The history of the 2 is roughly divided into three periods. The first period covers July-November 1941; the second – November 1941, to November 1942; and the third one the period of 1943 to 1944. During its existence, the battalion for the most part was engaged in watching different military objectives (in 1941–1942 it guarded the Majdanek concentration camp), and in fights with Soviet partisans in East Lithuania, in Belarus (Svyriai county) and in Russia (Pskov region). However, during the first period of its existence, the unit was indirectly involved in some accomplishments of the Nazi holocaust plans. In 1941, it had twice convoyed Jews to the site of execution in Paneriai. Since the unit was not involved in big operations against partisans, its casualties in general were inconsiderable. The servicemen of the unit were loyal to civilians, and did not commit any war crimes against them. The fate of the unit was decided in a crucial encounter with the soviet armored troops during the last days of July 1944. The survivors of the battle either retreated to Germany, or hid in Lithuania. The 252 police battalion was formed in the autumn of 1942. The battalion could not have direct reference to the Nazi annihilation policy, since 80% of Lithuanian Jews had been liquidated late in 1941, and the rest in the period 1943–1944, were imprisoned in ghettos. During the service in Majdanek the unit watched the approaches to the camp and convoyed prisoners to work, and thus, did not participate in massacres. Like the 2 police battalion, the formation for the most part was engaged in watching different military objectives and fights with soviet partisans. The battalion was one of a few Lithuanian police battalions which, as an independent unit, existed as long as the autumn of 1944, and some of its officers continued their service until the end of the war.

Despite having conducted a series of structural and organizational amendments enhanc-ing combat capabilities of a battalion, a sub-unit of such kind still remains not fully inde-pendent. Therefore, in order to extend battalion effective capabilities formation of battal-ion tactical battle groups on its basis seems to be indispensable in the future. Notwith-standing a number of assets, this solution entails substantial requirements, which have been articulated throughout the content of this paper.

The paper briefly describes the history of German police units in Serbia during the Second World War. The first police unit permanently stationed in Serbia was the 64th Reserve Police Battalion (Reserve Polizei Bataillon 64), which arrived in Serbia on June 30, 1941 and was subordinated to the Administrative Staff, in which, as Chief of Staff (Chef des Verwaltungsstabes des Bevollmächtigten Kommandire- nden Generals) in Serbien), was found by State Counselor Dr. Harold Turner. In July 1942, the 64th Reserve Police Battalion was assigned to Police Regiment 5 (from 1943 SS Police Regiment 5) as its 1st Battalion. Police Regiment 5 was formed in Serbia under Colonel May on July 9, 1942 by the BdO of Serbia under the orders of the Reichsführer SS and the Chief of the German Police in the Reich Ministry of the Interior (Chef der Deutschen Polizei im Reichsministeriums des Inneren). Battalions of Police Regiment 5, then SS Police Regiment 5 from February 1943, were generally deployed separately from each other. On September 1, 1942, the regiment was subordinated to the Commanding General and Commander of Serbia (Kommandie- render General und Befehlshaber Serbien). It will remain so until the end of the operations of this regiment in Serbia. During 1943, 10 auxiliary police battalions (Hilfspolizeibataillon) were formed, from which 3 auxiliary police regiments were formed, renamed in 1944 as SS volunteer police regiments (SS-Pol.Freiwilligen- Regiment)

Full textAbstract:
The U.S. Army is forging a digital communication system for combat vehicles as we enter the Information Age. Justification for this investment assumes it will improve soldier and unit performance. This evaluation assessed the performance of an armor battalion equipped with digital command, control and communication systems that vertically linked its platoon, company and battalion echelons in distributed interactive simulation. Participants included 210 soldiers in duty assignments that included a fully-manned, point platoon operating under company and battalion level commanders. Findings indicated that digital communication systems can provide significant improvements, over voice-only communications, on some important measures tested under an armor battalion's maneuver functions: move on the surface, navigate, process direct fire targets, and engage direct fire targets. The evaluation's method provides an example of how soldier-in-the-loop simulation can efficiently assess performance improvements anticipated from technologies such as digital communication systems, prior to critical but costly field evaluation.

Full textAbstract:
The article explores the motives of Lithuanians, who served in Kaunas National Labour Defence 1st and 2nd Auxiliary Police Service Battalions, for killing Jews and other groups of people during the period of the Nazi occupation (1941−1944). The topic is examined on the basis of archival data, historiography, and the knowledge of social psychology. The article distinguishes six inner factors that encouraged the troops who served in Kaunas National Labour Defence Battalions to participate in the massacre campaigns. They are: duty, fear, negative images, sadism, inebriation, and the need for property. The main factor, however, that urged the troops to participate in the massacre was the sense of duty. This was the main factor, because soldiers who joined the battalion had undertaken to obey orders. The operations of the extermination of Jews and other groups of people were carried out pursuant to the orders issued to them, i.e. first there was an appeal to the sense of duty and only then to other internal factors. There were five internal factors considered to be internal stimuli that encouraged the fulfilment of duty. The feeling of duty and the motive of fear were characteristic to all soldiers involved in the campaigns of killing people. Negative images, sadism, inebriation, and the need for property were characteristic of only some soldiers of the battalions. The article also discusses the cases in which soldiers of Kaunas Self-Defence Units carried out actions directed against Jews outside the battalion or prior to joining the battalion. Such acts were carried out due to negative images, which evoked feelings of hatred and revenge. These actions are special because when carrying out of these actions, soldiers were not bound by a sense of duty, i. e. the sense of duty did not determine their actions. In this case, therefore, negative images should be considered the key factor that encouraged the act of killing.

Full textAbstract:
The objective of this study is to show the role the National Labour Protection Battalion in the 1941 killings of Jews. The author seeks answers to these questions: Which companies and detachments of the battalion took part in the killings? Where and when did they kill Jews? What is the approximate number of Jews the battalion exterminated? How many officers and soldiers from the battalion participated? The 3rd company of the 1st Police Battalion (the core of J. Hamann's “flying” detachment) was very active in the policy of the Holocaust organised by the Nazis. The number of Jews exterminated by the battalion can be compared only to those exterminated by the German Secret Police and the SD special detachment in Vilnius, or the 2nd (12th) Battalion of the Lithuanian Police. In 1941, the 1st Battalion of the Lithuanian Police, together with the German Gestapo and auxiliary policemen (baltaraiščiai), exterminated not less than 36,000 Lithuanian Jews and others brought from abroad (from Austria, Belarus, the Czech Republic and Germany). About 23,000 were killed in Kaunas, about 11,600 in other places in Lithuania, and about 1,400 in Belarus. If it is true that the 3rd Company of the 1st Battalion operated in almost all the sites mentioned in K. Jäger's account (except for the Vilnius and Šiauliai districts), then the number of Jews killed will be considerably higher. Direct killings were carried out by the 3rd Company, and partly by the 1st Company (which operated in Kaunas' 7th Fort on 4 July 1941). The author's calculations show that 104 officers, sergeants and soldiers from the 3rd Company took part in the shootings. In one way or another (including shootings, bringing to the sites, guarding them, and guarding the ghetto and the forts) most of the battalion was involved in the Holocaust (the 1st, 2nd and 3rd companies).

The Community Service activity (PKM) aims to provide understanding to elementary school students about Indonesia's defense and security and to increase the sense of nationalism among students of SD Negeri Tegalrejo 04. This PKM was held on Saturday, October 14, 2023, at 08.00-12.00 in collaboration with KODIM 0714 Salatiga. This PKM activity was carried out at the 2/TC Cavalry Battalion, Ambarawa. This activity was attended by 100 elementary school students of Tegalrejo 04 Elementary School. The activity began with materials provided by the Indonesian National Armed Force (TNI) regarding the defense system and also the defense equipment owned by the 2/TC Cavalry Battalion, such as the weapons owned and the types of tanks owned by the 2/TC Cavalry Battalion, such as Ambulance Tanks, Canon Tanks, and Troop Transport Tanks. Furthermore, participants who are elementary school students are also introduced to the uniforms worn by the 2/TC Cavalry Battalion troops. The participants are also introduced to the companies in the Battalion, each of which has a different task. After that, the participants were invited to have a tour the battalion using a tank and were introduced to the training places in the battalion.

Full textAbstract:
Besides the combat-arms assets, the rapid troops of the Royal Hungarian Defence Forces also had field artillery (light howitzers), air defence artillery and anti-tank guns. The order of battle of the motorised units required the existence of one (after the autumn of 1941, two) artillery battalion(s) with vehicle-drawn assets for providing combat support. The motorised artillery battalions initially had four batteries with light howitzers, while the armoured divisions had two motorised artillery battalions. There were two artillery battalions with four (six) batteries in the mobilised organisation of the cavalry brigades (division). For ensuring defence against air attacks, vehicle-drawn air defence artillery battalions were introduced in the armoured divisions and the 1st Cavalry Division with one light and one heavy battery. Against tank attacks, there were 4–6 anti-tank guns in service used by each of the anti-tank companies of the infantry and reconnaissance battalions (in the motorised rifle brigades and hussar regiments of the armoured divisions) and the 1st Cavalry Division.

Today we have clear evidence, that in Eastern Ukraine regular Russian forces have fought on the separatists’ side. Based on open sources, the main type of unit deployed by the Russian Armed Forces is the Battalion Tactical Group. These Battalion Tactical Groups were deployed in almost all battles of the Russo–Ukraine war. In these battles, the Battalion Tactical Groups used the latest available Russian military equipment and they used them by the latest Russian manuals. It is very important to get familiar with the battle performance, the equipment and the tactics used by the Russian Battalion Tactical Groups in order to have a clear picture of the main tactical formation implemented by the Russians in Eastern Ukraine.

Full textAbstract:
This article explores officer capability and culture of the Australian army before the First World War, in particular those officers who held infantry battalion commands. Although the men who served in Australia’s part-time citizen army as infantry battalion commanders showed dedication and enthusiasm for soldiering, they were under-developed as infantry commanders, owing to time constraints and general under-investment in officer education and training. Officers who became battalion commanders were also relatively old, and their rise through the ranks was facilitated more by social position, rather than competence or experience. As a result, those Citizen Forces battalion commanders who enlisted in the Australian Imperial Force largely failed to carry out commands effectively in wartime, an indictment on the state of the Australian Army before the First World War.

The presence of Ukraine in the legal regime of martial law, the tasks performed by the National Guard of Ukraine formations, as well as the modern conditions for the use of the NGU formations to participate in the cessation of the russian federation armed aggression determine the peculiarities of personnel individual and collective training for the successful performance of the tasks assigned to them to ensure national security . The open and large-scale war waged by the russian federation against Ukraine, the current level of the NGU's ability to perform national security tasks, defined by legislation during the right-wing martial law regime, necessitate the development of new approaches to training the personnel of the NGU units to act as part of the state security forces and defense forces. In conditions of increased tension and speed of change in the operational situation, specialized professional training of servicemen, crews (calculations) and units of battalion tactical groups acquires special importance. In the article it is analyzed the problems of substantiating the rational composition of groups of the state defense forces (including battalion tactical groups), the issue of determining the rational composition of NGU groups for the performance of relevant tasks to ensure national security, the experience of creating and using battalion tactical groups during modern wars and armed conflicts, as well as the system of training units equal to the battalion. Based on the analysis of relevant approaches and methods, the analysis of the experience of creating and using battalion tactical groups, an organizational structure scheme of NGU typical battalion tactical group is proposed, which takes into account the specifics of the implementation of the relevant NGU units. After analyzing the typical training plan of NGU battalion tactical groups, a number of weaknesses were revealed, which were taken into account when justifying the recommended improved training plan. Such an approach to training will further improve the performance by National Guard of Ukraine battalion tactical groups of tasks to ensure national security under the martial law legal regime, because the level of training and preparedness of personnel depends on the degree of performance of the assigned task, the preservation of personnel and weapons and vehicles.

Full textAbstract:
The implementation of 155 mm self-propelled howitzers ‘Krab’ into the Missile and Artillery Forces significantly improve their capabilities. Apart the howitzer, the battalion fire module ‘Regina’ consists of specialized command, reconnaissance, support and ammunition vehicles. The caliber of the howitzer adjusted to NATO standards allows for the application of the common ammunition, including precision-guided, with the range up to 40 km, which will enable striking the important targets in the enemy’s rear combat zone. An artillery battalion (battery) equipped with the self-propelled howitzer ‘Krab’ owing to usage of the precision-guided munitions during the engagement will gain unprecedented capabilities with regards to impacting a target. Moreover, the battalion will be able to successfully fulfill tasks, which until recently could be executed by a general-military commander with the support of anti-tank reserves, tank subunits, special forces or tactical surface-to-surface missiles. The paper proposes organizational structures of the ‘Krab’ artillery battalion, variants of order of battle and methods of fire tasks execution.

Full textAbstract:
The Transportation Management System (TMS) is considered a pivotal segment in the realm of supply chain management, often likened to the emerging sun in this domain. Given the dynamic nature of Ghana's logistics market and the active involvement of foreign logistics enterprises, local players in Ghana frequently grapple with the challenge of delivering effective Third-Party Logistics services. Notably, substantial gaps persist between the capabilities of domestic entities and those of their foreign counterparts. This paper focuses on exploring the application of TMS in Ghana's logistics market, with a primary emphasis on comparing TMS implementation between a multinational corporation and a local Ghanaian company. The central contribution of this study lies in evaluating how TMS is utilized and comparing its efficacy between UPS, a multinational company, and the Defence Mechanical Transport Battalion of the Ghana Armed Forces, a local entity. The study's unit of analysis comprises key staff members employed by the two selected companies (UPS and the Defence Mechanical Transport Battalion) and individuals possessing pertinent knowledge related to the research. The study's population consists of 50 key staff members from both UPS and the Defence Mechanical Transport Battalion. In selecting the institutions for analysis, the criteria considered include the extent of disparity between the Defence Mechanical Transport Battalion of the Ghana Armed Forces and UPS, along with their representativeness of local small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and foreign industry giants, respectively. The comparative analysis clearly indicates that UPS excels in managing transportation issues compared to the Defence Mechanical Transport Battalion of the Ghana Armed Forces. Furthermore, the findings suggest that the Defence Mechanical Transport Battalion needs to make significant adjustments to its current methods of management and monitoring.

ABSTRACT Introduction The Cohesion Assessment Team (CAT) provides battalion and brigade command teams with actionable insight into the climate of their unit and the presence of certain harmful behaviors. This assessment, initiated by the Vice Chief of Staff of the Army and initially managed by the Headquarters Department of the Army’s People First Task Force, employs a framework from the Center for Army Professional Leadership to structure data and findings. Materials and Methods This manuscript describes how to conduct a CAT assessment. To start, two battalions within the same brigade are selected or volunteer for observation based on various metrics. Data are collected from multiple sources including (1) army metrics, such as promotion rates and Uniformed Code of Military Justice actions, (2) subject matter expert in-person observations and interactions, (3) discussions with battalion and brigade staff, (4) survey data from approximately 90% of the soldiers in participating units, and (5) targeted interviews, focus groups, and listening sessions. Onsite data are collected and synthesized with the survey results within a week. Results are presented to battalion and brigade command teams. Briefs highlight key elements of the unit climate that should be maintained or improved. In addition, summarized results are presented to progressively higher echelons of leadership, culminating with the Vice Chief of Staff of the Army for consideration of army-wide changes. Results and Conclusions The CAT focuses on providing leaders at brigade and below with relevant and actionable information to help inform their internal decision-making to improve their unit’s climate. This capability is distinct in many ways, including its non-attributional systems focus and its methodical approach to quickly collecting and triangulating multiple data points. Additionally, the CAT helps leaders identify areas under their control that will impact unit climate, similar to the feedback that training events provide on unit readiness. Army leadership deemed the CAT pilot a success, and responsibility for future CATs was transferred to the Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) in October 2022.

Data collection using questionnaires has been completed for both variables, the commander's leadership style and soldiers’ readiness to change. The analytical tool used in this study is simple linear regression analysis, correlation test, and t-test using SPSS for windows 23.0. The result showed that the transformational leadership of the Xth Infantry Battalion Commander has positive effects on readiness to change of soldiers from Xth Infantry Battalion. The coefficient determinant demonstrated from this study is 50,2%, meaning that the Xth battalion commander's transformational leadership effect on soldiers' readiness to change is 50,2%. This study is preliminary and has its limitations. However, this study can be developed in many ways for the benefit of the Indonesian Army to change to meet the ever-changing dynamics of armed conflict.</p>

Full textAbstract:
The paper examines the post-Nigerian Civil War developments that led to the establishment of Natsinta Army Barracks, Katsina. Prior to 1966, the total strength of the Nigerian Army was merely 10,000. However, at the end of the war, the figure had risen to 250,000. This posed a serious challenge because the available barracks could not contain more than 10% of the personnel. In view of this, the Nigerian Army instructed the soldiers to leave the East because the region was saturated with artificial barracks. On the May 1, 1970 the 82-battalion arrived Katsina from Uli-Ahiala. They were accommodated at Sabongida, Gidan Kwakwa, Kayalwa, GRA and some hotels, as well as rented apartments in the city. By 1977, the project for a permanent barracks was completed at Natsinta Village. The barracks housed the 82 battalion and in 1996 the 35 battalion replaced them. The scope of the paper is 1970-2020 because it was in 1970 that 82 battalion arrived Katsina. The year 2020 is the terminal end of the paper because it was in that year that residential quarters for the personnel of 17 brigade was constructed in the barracks. The paper argues that the establishment of the barrack was a landmark in the history of modern Katsina metropolis. Natsinta had impacts on the socio-economic and security aspect of Katsina. Primary and secondary sources of historical research were used in writing this paper. Keywords: Natsinta, Sabongida, Katsina, Army Barracks, Battalion, Civil war.

Full textAbstract:
The article examines two criminal proceedings that were conducted in Lithuania in 1962, and were concluded regarding individuals who had served in Lithuanian police battalions during World War II and participated in various battalion campaigns (including the mass killings of civilians, most of whom were Jews) being sentenced to death.The 1962 trials took place after the criminal law reform that was carried out in the Soviet Union in 1957–1961. The new criminal laws explicitly prohibited the retroactive application of laws that increased criminal liability; they also established statutes of limitations for prosecution and prohibited the imposition of the death penalty if the maximum statute of limitations (15 years) had expired.In the criminal proceedings in question, the individuals were convicted of treason for adherence to the enemy. In the trials investigated, the individuals were not convicted of being involved in genocide as defined in the Genocide Convention.The fact that the cases contained two secret documents adopted before the commencement of the trial that allowed the courts not to commute the death penalty to imprisonment, that all of the individuals were sentenced to death even though the criminal laws prohibited this, and that these public criminal proceedings were organised by a group consisting of top party, law enforcement and propaganda officials gives reason to believe that these proceedings may have been intended not only to punish individuals who collaborated with the Nazis and participated in police battalion campaigns, but also for other purposes, such as ideology or propaganda.

Full textAbstract:
After the Republic of Latvia regained its independence, the question of its border status has become essential for its security. With the creation of the Ministry of Defence, already by 13th November 1991, it immediately began the herculean task of forming proper Latvian Armed Forces. The Border Guard Forces of the Republic of Latvia was the first main force formed by the Ministry of Defence, by 2nd January 1992 there were 2,309 state positions reserved for the Border Guard units from the combined 2,452 positions at the Ministry of Defence. Out of them, 226 formed the 4th Daugavpils Border guard battalion. Its aim was to guard the Latvian border with Belarus and Lithuania. Due to its location, it eventually became the largest Border Guard battalion, additionally, by 1994 already more than 90% of border violations occurred on the checkpoints facing Belarus and Russia, therefore, putting even more pressure on the battalion.The fact that practically all of the border guards serving in the battalion spoke Russian fluently definitely was a much needed skill when dealing with contrabandists and migrants who crossed the border illegally. However, when dealing with administrative tasks, for a lot of the border guards, especially the ones coming from Russian speaking families, this proved to be quite troublesome, since they had significant problems writing the reports and other written tasks on the time set to them by their superiors.Additionally, due to the fact that the border guard service at the time was mandatory, many of those drafted against their will suffered from the lack of discipline. For most of them this was because they lacked motivation to serve adequately, they were looking for ways to easier endure their service rather than stay in the military service afterwards. Of course, this problem was not an exception for the 4th Daugavpils Border Guard battalion, this issue was common in the entirety of the Latvian Armed Forces at that time, it was the crucial location of the battalion that made this problem so troubling. Despite all of the difficulties mentioned above, the battalion, somewhat mirroring the rapid development not just of the Republic of Latvia but of all three Baltic States, advanced quite quickly and by the year 1997 it sorted most of its logistical and administrative problems. When it was transferred under the command of the Ministry of Interior, the battalion was already fully staffed and operational.
