Battle of Rehe The Battle of Rehe ( , sometimes called the Battle of Jehol ) was the second part of Operation Nekka , a campaign by which the Empire of Japan successfully captured the Inner Mongolian province of Rehe from the Chinese warlord Zhang Xueliang and annexed it to the new state of Manchukuo . The battle was fought from February 21 to March 1 , 1933 . Background . Following the establishment of Manchukuo , the Kwantung Army launched an operation to secure its southern frontier with China by attacking and capturing Shanhaiguan Pass at the Great Wall on 3 January 1933 . The province of Rehe , on the northern side of the Great Wall was the next target . Declaring the province to be historically a portion of Manchuria , the Japanese Army initially hoped to secure it through the defection of General Tang Yulin to the Manchukuo cause . When this failed , the military option was placed into action . Assigned to this operation were the Japanese 6th Division and 8th Division and 14th and 33rd Mixed Brigade s of infantry , 4th Cavalry Brigade and the 1st Special Tank Company . The Japanese army ' s Chief of Staff requested Emperor Hirohito ' s sanction for the ' strategic operation ' against Chinese forces in Rehe . Hoping that it was the last of the army ' s operations in the area and that it would bring an end to the Manchurian matter , the Emperor approved , while stating explicitly that the army was not to go beyond China ' s Great Wall . The Battle of Rehe . On February 23 , 1933 , the offensive was launched . On February 25 , Chaoyang and Kailu were taken . On March 2 , the Japanese 4th Cavalry Brigade encountered resistance from the forces of Sun Dianying , and after days of fighting , took over Chifeng . Sun Dianying mounted a counterattack against the Japanese 6th Division on the same day , and at one time penetrated to near the Japanese headquarters . On March 4 , Japanese cavalry and the 1st Special Tank Company with Type 89 Tank s took Chengde the capital of Rehe . Aftermath . Rehe was subsequently annexed to Manchukuo . Zhang Xueliang was forced by the Kuomintang government to relinquish his posts for “ medical reasons ” . Chinese forces fell back in disarray to the Great Wall , where after a series of battles and skirmishes , the Japanese Army seized a number of strategic points , and then agreed to a cease fire and a negotiated settlement ( the Tangku Truce ) whereby a demilitarized zone would be established between the Great Wall and Beijing . However , this would prove to be only a temporary respite before the full scale combat of the Second Sino - Japanese War erupted in earnest in 1937 .

Lieutenant colonel ( United Kingdom ) Lieutenant colonel is a rank in the British Army and Royal Marines which is also used in many Commonwealth countries . The rank is superior to major , and subordinate to colonel . The comparable Royal Navy rank is commander , and the comparable rank in the Royal Air Force and many Commonwealth air forces is wing commander . The rank insignia in the British Army and Royal Marines , as well as many Commonwealth countries , is a crown above a 4 pointed " Bath " star , also colloquially referred to as a " pip " . The crown has varied in the past with different monarchs ; the current one being the Crown of St Edward . Most other Commonwealth countries use the same insignia , or with the state emblem replacing the crown . In modern British forces , a lieutenant colonel usually commands a regiment ( in the artillery and armoured regiments ) or a battalion in the infantry . From 1 April 1918 to 31 July 1919 , the Royal Air Force maintained the rank of lieutenant colonel . It was superseded by the rank of wing commander on the following day .
Vought XS2U The Vought S2U was a design for an all - weather carrier - borne anti - submarine warfare ( ASW ) aircraft . A twin - engine , twin - tailed , mid - wing , propeller - driven design with tricycle landing gear , it lost to the Grumman S2F Tracker in the United States Navy competition , and the two prototypes were not completed . Development and design . Chance Vought Aircraft began work on 25 January 1950 on a U . S . Navy proposal for an all - weather anti - submarine warfare design . The company constructed a full - scale mock - up of the XS2U - 1 and received a contract - of - intent for two XS2U - 1 prototypes , BuNos " 133780 " and " 133781 " , which were not completed before development was abandoned . Three - blade props similar to those used on the S2F were installed on the mock - up , which had a two - wheel nosegear , and single - tire main gear that would retract into the engine nacelles . The twin - tail fins were canted inward , 90 degrees from the tailplane dihedral . Construction was begun on the fuselages and wings , but technical difficulties arose over how to fold the wings for carrier stowage . A complicated double - fold of each wing outboard of the radial engine was required . The contract was canceled and neither airframe was completed , the Navy electing to acquire the S2F Tracker instead . The S2U was also proposed for the carrier - borne AEW role as the S2U - 1W , later changed to WU - 1 . A bulged radome was astride the center fuselage , and the forward fuselage / cockpit design bore a passing resemblance to the later Grumman Mohawk .

War amongst the people War amongst the people is the term used to denote that the ability of nations to employ force with utility has declined in the face of a new paradigm : History . General Sir Rupert Smith ( UK ) coined the term . He is the former deputy commander of NATO ( DSACEUR ) ; his career roles include acting as the UN commander during the Bosnia conflict , as the commander of the UK forces during the first Gulf War , and a number of years commanding UK forces in Northern Ireland . He uses the term ' Industrial war ' to describe the method of warfare that nations have employed and perfected since the days of the Napoleonic Wars . He asserts that in the face of enemies that fight among the people the utility of such an approach is compromised with the result that we are now seeing in conflicts such as the Middle East , parts of Russia , and formerly , parts of the Balkans that move from confrontation to conflict in cycles that do not have definitive end points . In this context , those organisations that we today term as terrorist s are in fact the proponents of modern warfare . The challenge to the established nation - state s is how to counter such threats .

CFS Barrington Canadian Forces Station Barrington , also referred to as CFS Barrington , was a Canadian Forces Station located in the unincorporated community of Baccaro , Nova Scotia at Baccaro Point near the southwestern - most point of the province . History . In 1943 the Royal Canadian Navy ( RCN ) established a LORAN site at Baccaro Point to assist in navigation for Allied naval operations on the North Atlantic . After the war , the LORAN site was operated by the Department of Transport . In the early years of the Cold War , the RCN sought to establish a radar site on the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia ; a number of sites were considered , including remote Sable Island which was ultimately rejected by 1953 due to logistical problems . The Baccaro Point site was selected as it was near the southwestern - most point of Nova Scotia at Cape Sable Island and would provide maximum coverage area . By that time , the Pinetree Line early warning radar network was being proposed by the United States Air Force ( USAF ) and Royal Canadian Air Force ( RCAF ) . Construction of a Pinetree Line of Ground - Control Intercept ( GCI ) radar site began at Baccaro Point in 1955 and was completed in 1957 . The facility was operated by the USAF as Barrington Air Station by the 672d Aircraft Control and Warning Squadron . Radars at the station were : As a GCI base , the 672d ' s role was to guide interceptor aircraft toward unidentified intruders picked up on the unit ' s radar scopes . These interceptors were based at the 26th NORAD Region bases at Loring AFB and Dow AFB , Maine . In the early 1960s , the USAF relinquished control of the base to the Royal Canadian Air Force ( RCAF ) . This was part of an arrangement with the United States that came as a result of the cancellation of the Avro Arrow . Canada would lease 66 F - 101 Voodoo fighters and take over operation of 12 Pinetree radar bases . Upon hand - over on 1 June 1962 , the operating unit was re - designated 23 Aircraft Control & Warning Squadron and the base became RCAF Station Barrington . Radar operations at 23 Squadron were automated on 1 July 1964 by the Semi Automatic Ground Environment ( SAGE ) system , and the station became a long - range radar site . It would no longer guide interceptors but only look for enemy aircraft , feeding data to the Boston Air Defense Sector SAGE DC - 02 Direction Center of the 26th NORAD Region . The facility was renamed CFS Barrington with the unification of the Canadian Forces on February 1 , 1968 and the newly established 213 Radar Squadron reported to the 21st NORAD Region SAGE DC - 03 Direction Center at Syracuse AFS . In 1971 the Canadian Forces constructed a mobile home subdivision on Sherose Island 27 km west of the station for housing personnel and their families . Beginning in 1983 , CFS Barrington began reporting to Canada East ROCC at CFB North Bay . The long range early warning radar became obsolete by the late 1980s and the facility was decommissioned on August 1 , 1990 . The Baccaro Point site currently hosts a remotely operated Canadian Coastal Radar transmitter / receiver facility .
