A soldier under Russian command warns anyone approaching further that he will shoot them in the legs after he and colleagues fired their weapons into the air and screamed orders to turn back at an approaching group of over 100 hundred unarmed Ukrainian troops at the Belbek airbase, which the Russian troops are occcupying, in Crimea on March 4, 2014 in Lubimovka, Ukraine. The Ukrainians are stationed at their garrison nearby, and after spending a tense night anticipating a Russian attack following the expiration of a Russian deadline to surrender, in which family members of troops spent the night at the garrison gate in support of the soldiers, their commander Colonel Yuli Mamchor announced his bold plan this morning to retake the airfield by confronting the Russian-lead soldiers unarmed. The Russian-lead troops fired their weapons into the air but then granted Mamchor the beginning of negotiations with their commander. Russian-lead troops have blockaded a number of Ukrainian military bases across Crimea.

Armed Forces Day is Saturday June 25th 2011. It’s an opportunity to do two things. Firstly, to raise public awareness of the contribution made to our country by those who serve and have served in Her Majesty’s Armed Forces. Secondly, it gives the nation an opportunity to Show Your Support for the men and women who make up the Armed Forces community: from currently serving troops to Service families and from veterans to cadets.

The Carron Valley dam. After half a day in th Campsies scouting for a potential location, I managed to get 20 minutes between blizzards to try out a long(ish) exposure shot. First attempt at this type of shot so reasonably happy but I suspect I'll be trying again when (or perhaps if?) the weather improves.

A truck and soldiers block the road leading to Babek Airport near Sevastopol that is occupied by Russian troops in Crimea on March 2, 2014 near Balbek, Ukraine. The new government of Ukraine has appealed to the United Nations Security Council for help against growing Russian intervention in Crimea, where thousands of Russian troops reportedly arrived in recent days at Russian military bases there and also occupy key government and other installations. World leaders are scrambling to persuade Russian President Vladimir Putin to refrain from further escalation in Ukraine. Ukraine has put its armed forces on combat alert.

Thanks to gadihext and to his very friendly family for the fantastic hospitality!

 

We had an amazing holiday in the Holy Land with you, and we enjoyed to learn something about the Passover, the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Also called Chag HaMatzot,the Festival of Matzah, it commemorates the Exodus and freedom of the Israelites from ancient Egypt.

Pau. Du 14 au 21 octobre 2013 : l’exercice Garuda a rassemblé plusieurs commandos des Forces spéciales pour un entraînement soutenu. Le nom, emprunté à la mythologie, d’une divinité sous les traits d’un aigle géant et puissant, donne le ton à cet exercice ! Objectif ? Perfectionner les savoir-faire spécifiques et développer, en situation réaliste, le sens de la cohésion pour des actions en simultané. Extraction en grappe, mise au sol appui-feu, observation, renseignement, tirs : autant d’activités que ces unités d’élite ont accomplies avec des moyens ultra performants. Détermination, concentration, cohésion, sont des qualités essentielles pour ces militaires projetés, en premier, sur des zones de conflit. Souvent pour des opérations classées Secret Défense. A découvrir, dans cet album d’instantanés, les silhouettes de ces hommes de l’ombre.
