IDF Desert Reconnaissance Battalion at the Urban Warfare Center

 

Last week, the Desert Reconnaissance Battalion conducted a drill in the Urban Warfare Training Center, simulating fighting in populated cities. The drill was conducted to assure maximum efficiency while fighting in urban centers by focusing solely on hostile targets.

 

The Desert Reconnaissance Battalion, also known as "the natural detectives" is comprised almost entirely of Bedouins whom, though exempt from service, volunteered to serve in the IDF. These soldiers use their unique abilities to track down infiltrators and other threats in the vast Israeli desert. April 2, 2012

The Golan Heights form a strategic plateau between Israel and Syria of about 1, 200 square kilometers (460 square miles). Israel captured it in the 1967 Middle East war and annexed it in 1981 in a move not recognized internationally.

Construction started in 1877 as one of a series of defences to protect the strategically important docks at Chatham. After a few setbacks and delays, the fort was completed in 1892 and the finished construction was considerably smaller than the original plan. The only excavations to be dug were those of the ditch, from which the earth was used to cover the exposed structures inside the fort. The ditch was concrete lined and the final feature to be installed was the rare rolling drawbridge.

 

The fort was purely defensive, and was never armed (like most 'forts' of the time), but would have been armed and manned in the event of a national crisis. Ironically, by the time the series of fortifications were completed they were outdated and obsolete.

The camera club met at Carats Cafe on Southwick Beach today. The beach and the sea were glistening but I became focused on what appeared to be old metal groynes. They look quite dangerous and certainly not providing any sea defence. So I looked up Southwick Beach groynes and there is an ongoing programme in place to replace the groynes and protect Shoreham Port, houses and businesses which are behind the beach.

A long line of anti tank blocks cover this stretch of Burghead beach. Over the years they have been tilted in all manner of directions by the shifting sands, but remain in the same place where they had been left over 60 year ago.

River Dargle Flood Defence Scheme.

These images were taken during the last week of May 2013, tracking the on-going river bank alterations and excavation of the river bed.

 

Activity in this Slang area has been drastically curtailed in recent months. Minimal landscaping work on the riverbank top area. And, with the passage of time, and occasional Spring waters, the River has changed it's flow path, having shifted and sculpted the sand/stones/gravel into a twisting, winding pattern along the riverbed.

 

The protection work continues along the river bank, beyond the temporary access bridge.

 

In the background, atop of the slope, we can see evidence of the construction works for the future Cairnhill Nursing Home.

Viewed from this angle, those works appear to be quite close to the edge . . . . and that is a hillside that would require repeated stabilisation work to maintain the integrity of the soil.

We can see evidence of those works, designed to protect and re-inforce the section of the slope directly below the nursing home works.

 

A contributing factor in the instability/fragility of the soil has been the removal of the trees and shrubs that knitted the soil together.

 

This work would continue in different forms for a long period of time. Finally they would need to need to build a stone buttress at the base of the slope to prevent soil slippage.

Been thinking a lot about photography lately and how I don't seem to be having as much fun with it these days, even to the point where I have sold some of my stuff and was thinking of selling the rest.

 

I think it's partly because I fixated a bit too much on long exposure photography, which a lot of the time has to fit in around the tide times and weather conditions to get the ideal shot, which makes it a bit rigid (or maybe that's my approach to it ?)

 

As such, I would like to try some different stuff this year, and one of the things on my list will hopefully be a visit to the WHF in Kent to photograph some of the big cats. Just need a 300mm lens now :)

 

I imagine the occasional long exposure will still happen as well...

Red Sands Army Fort [U6] was a Maunsell army fort built near the Thames estuary for anti-aircraft defence. It is made up of several once interconnected towers.

 

Derelict, the remains of the Fort towers are still standing.

Alpinist Unit Winter of 2012

 

Every year during the winter season, the combat soldiers of the Alpine Unit are dispatched to Mount Hermon, after having been trained to operate under extreme weather conditions. January 22, 2012.

 

The Alpine Unit is comprised of reserve soldiers that served in elite units during their regular service and who take part in intensive training days in Judea and Samaria and the northern border, particularly Mt. Hermon.

 

The unit carries out regional defense tactics, shooting while skiing at high speeds, snowmobiling, and riding Sno-Cats.

 

All of the reservists who serve in the Alpine unit are volunteers. The unit is highly selective and challenging to join.

 

The album features pictures of the reservists running drills in Mt. Hermon. The pictures include soldiers practicing skiing, climbing, shooting, tracking, and rehearsing rescue drills in conditions of heavy snow.
