Behind the Burma Road Behind the Burma Road is regarded as one of the most broadly informative books on intelligence operations and processes available in English . " A primer for guerilla fighter s , [ the book ] lists 101 ' s accomplishments as far as it was humanly possible to ascertain the effects of its attacks on and harassment of the Japanese [ during World War II ] . Their score included 5 , 428 known enemy dead and an estimated 10 , 000 others either killed or seriously wounded . Seventy - five Japanese were captured , 51 bridges destroyed , 9 trains derailed , 232 downed United States air corps personnel rescued , and 342 other allied personnel flown out ; 3000 tons of enemy supplies were destroyed and 700 tons captured . " 101 ' s efforts opened the way for Stilwell ' s Chinese forces , Wingate ' s Raiders , Merrill ' s Marauders , and the great counter - attack against the Japanese Imperial life - line . " The book is the result of an unusual writing collaboration between a commanding officer and one of his men . Colonel William R . Peers , who would later rise to the rank of Lieutenant General , was commander of 101 from December , 1943 to July 1945 , and before that , the Operations and Training Officer . Dean Brelis , who later became a novelist and foreign correspondent with " Time " magazine , was at the time a field agent , first as a sergeant and then as a lieutenant , during 1944 and 1945 . Although the story of 101 ' s guerilla operations is seen in this book through the eyes of the commanding officer , the actual text is the result of collaboration between the two men , who hoped it embodied not only the difficult command problems of a complex guerilla operation , but the experiences and accomplishments of the men in the field as well .

MIL - STD - 6011 TADIL - A / Link 11 is a secure half - duplex TADIL radio link used by NATO that receives or transmits — but not both simultaneously — a sequential data exchange digital link . It exchanges digital information among airborne , land - based , and ship - board tactical data systems . It is the primary means to exchange data such as radar tracking information beyond line of sight . TADIL - A can be used on either high frequency ( HF ) or ultrahigh frequency ( UHF ) . However , the U . S . Army uses only HF . Link 11 relies on a single platform to report positional information on sensor detections . This positional information can be amplified with additional data to qualify the identity of the detected track . Link 11 will be replaced by Link 22 . Link 11 is defined by the United States Department of Defense as MIL - STD - 6011 . Change of terminology . The term " Tactical Digital Information Link ( TADIL ) " was obsolete ( per DISA guidance ) and is now more commonly seen as " Tactical Data Link ( TDL ) " .
Geronimo ( exclamation ) Geronimo ! is an exclamation occasionally used by jumping skydiver s or , more generally , anyone about to jump from a great height , or as a general exclamation of exhilaration . The cry originated in the United States . Origins . At least two different explanations place the origins of the exclamation in Fort Benning , Georgia where some of the first of the US Army ' s parachute jumps occurred in the 1940s . According to paratrooper Gerard Devlin , this exclamation dates from August 1940 , and is attributed to Private Aubrey Eberhardt , member of parachute test platoon at Fort Benning . The parachute had only recently been adopted for troop drops and this platoon was the first to test it . On the eve of their first jump , the platoon decided to calm their nerves by spending the day before taking in a film at the Main Post Theatre and a night at the local beer garden . The film they saw was a Western featuring the Native American chief Geronimo . Its title is uncertain , but it was probably the 1939 film " Geronimo " with Andy Devine and Lone Ranger star Chief Thundercloud in the title role . On the way back to barracks , Eberhardt ' s comrades taunted him saying that he would be too scared to remember his name . Eberhardt retorted , " All right , dammit ! I tell you jokers what I ' m gonna do ! To prove to you that I ' m not scared out of my wits when I jump , I ' m gonna yell " Geronimo " loud as hell when I go out that door tomorrow ! " Eberhardt kept his promise and the cry was gradually adopted by the other members of his platoon . In his book , " Beyond Band of Brothers : The War Memoirs of Major Richard Winters " , Winters offers a different explanation : The 501st Parachute Infantry Regiment at Fort Benning was due to go on the first jump . At the time there was a popular song called ' Geronimo ' on the radio which quickly became a favourite amongst the troops . The cry became known to the commanding officer who insisted they would instead jump out and cry " " Currahee " " , the name of a mountain at Camp Toccoa , their first training camp . The paratroopers had run up and down the mountain frequently during training , the run known to the troops as " 3 miles up , 3 miles down " . Response . Initially , the top brass were wary of the cry , claiming that it constituted a lack of discipline . Others said that it showed bravery and should be encouraged . Eventually the latter view won out , and when the Army ' s parachute infantry grew , the cry grew with it . In 1941 , the Army ' s first parachute regiment , the 501st Parachute Infantry Regiment ( PIR ) ( now called the 501st Infantry Regiment ) , incorporated the name " Geronimo " into its insignia , with the permission of the real Geronimo ' s family . The cry was also incorporated into the song " Down From Heaven " by Lieutenant Colonel Byron Paige . By then , the coverage of the paratroopers ' exploits during the war had made the cry " Geronimo " known to the wider public , and its use spread outside the military and air force .
47th ( 1 / 2nd London ) Division The British 47th ( 1 / 2nd London ) Division was a first - line Territorial Force division . Originally called the " 2nd London Division " it was designated the 47th Division in 1915 and referred to as the " 1 / 2nd London Division " after the raising of the second - line 60th ( 2 / 2nd London ) Division . The division was sent to France in March 1915 , one of the first Territorial divisions to enter the fighting , and served on the Western Front for the duration of the First World War . In 1916 the division was part of Wilson ' s IV Corps . Wilson was not impressed by Charles Barter , GOC 47th division , and at the end of March 1916 he and Monro ( GOC First Army ) discussed getting rid of him , but could not come up with a reason for doing so ; Barter survived until he was relieved during the Battle of the Somme . 47th Division conducted effective mining operations against Vimy Ridge on 3 May and 15 May 1916 , but a German attack on the evening of Sunday 21 May moved forward 800 yards , capturing 1 , 000 yards of the British front line , and the Division performed badly during a counterattack on 23 May . The Division conducted a carefully planned single battalion raid on the night of 27 – 8 June , claiming to have killed 300 – 600 Germans for only 13 British casualties . In the final stages of the war the division ' s GSO1 ( effectively chief of staff ) was acting Lieutenant - Colonel Bernard Montgomery , then in his very early thirties and later a leading British commander in the Second World War . The division fought in the Battle of Aubers Ridge , the Battle of Festubert , the Battle of Loos , the 1 July 1916 Battle of the Somme ( 1916 ) , including the Battle of Flers - Courcelette and the capture of High Wood .
