Executions in Sebastopol ww2 - part 1
The Soviet naval base at Sevastopol was one of the strongest fortifications in the world. Its site, on a deeply eroded, bare limestone promontory at the South-Western tip of the Crimea made an approach by land forces exceedingly difficult. The high-level cliffs at Severnaya Bay protected the anchorage, making an amphibious landing just as dangerous. The Soviet Navy had built upon these natural defences by modernising the port and installing heavy coastal and artillery defences which could fire inland and out to sea. The artillery was protected by strong concrete and armoured turrets. The port was a valuable target. Its importance as a potential naval and air base would enable the Axis to conduct far ranging sea and air operations against Soviet targets into and over the Caucasus ports and mountains. The Red Air Force had been using the Crimea as a base to attack targets in Romania since the Axis invasion in June 1941, proving its use as an air base.
Since the beginning of Barbarossa, the planned offensive in the east had not really addressed the Crimea as an objective. German planners assumed the area would be captured in mop-up operations once the bulk of the Red Army was destroyed west of the Dnepr river. But in June attacks by Soviet aircraft from the Crimea against Romania's oil refineries destroyed 11,000 tons of oil. Hitler described the area as a floating aircraft carrier and ordered the conquest of the Ukraine and the Crimea as vital targets in the Directive 33, dated 23 July 1941.
The Oberkommando der Wehrmacht (OKW) issued orders that the Crimea was to be taken as soon as possible to prevent attacks on Romanian oil supplies, which fed the German military. Hitler, impatient with his commands advance in the south, repeated his desire that the Crimea be taken immediately on 12 August. Over a month later, during the capture of Kiev, Generaloberst Erich von Manstein was given command of the German 11th Army on 17 September. After only a week in command, he launched an assault upon the Crimea. After severe fighting, von Manstein defeated several Soviet counter-offensives and destroyed two Soviet armies. By 16 November, von Manstein had cleared the region, capturing its capital Simferopol, on 1 November. The fall of Kerch on 16 November left only Sevastopol in Soviet hands.
Fortunately for the Soviets, by the end of October 1941, Major-General Ivan Yefimovich Petrov's Independent Coastal Army, numbering 32,000 men, had arrived in Sevastopol by sea from Odessa, further west, having been routed in heavy fighting. Petrov set about fortifying the inland approaches to the Crimea. He aimed to halt the Axis drive on the port by creating three defence lines inland, the outermost arc being 16km (10 mi) from the port itself. Soviet forces, including the Soviet 51st Army and elements of the Black Sea Fleet, were defeated in the Crimea in October and were evacuated in December leaving Petrov's force as Sevastopol's main defence force. Having cleared the Crimea from 26 September--16 November, the Romanian 3rd Army and German 11th Army prepared for an attack on the port. The German 11 Army was the weakest on the entire front, containing only seven divisions intitially. The Romanians made up the numbers, but were poorly trained, led and only lightly equipped. The weather turned against the Axis in mid-October and torrential downpours delayed the build up. This gave time for Vice Admiral Filipp Oktyabrsky, commander of the Black Sea Fleet, to bring in men and ammunition from Novorossisk. By the 17 December the weather had cleared sufficiently to begin a major operation.
Ukrainian village takes tourists on a trip back in time
LEAD IN:
The picturesque village of Kolochava, located in the South-West of Ukraine, is place where performance and reality are blurred.
People here are all actors, each performing a specific role which makes a visit to Kolocahava a truly unique experience.
STORY-LINE:
Kolochava is a small village with a rich historical past. It has been home to many peoples, cultures and traditions, and today these are being preserved as a unique tourist destination.
The village is now a living museum with over 50 historical sites, including 10 museums, 25 architectural monuments and 7 schools. Actors here play many roles representing not just Ukrainian culture but also Czech, Jewish or Hungarian.
Tourists can call in for a drink in a traditional Jewish restaurant called korchma.
In the early 20th century ten percent of the residents here were Jewish. While most have left the area, their culture and customs remain, preserved in the village museums.
Owners of such restaurants often extended credit to their customers, but all such cases were carefully registered in a book of debts by the owner's helper.
Jews mostly worked in the trade sphere, they owned local restaurants and bars, worked as craftsmen and so on. - said Ivan Makar, a hotel owner in Kolochava who plays the role of a Jew.
A Czech school, which is also a part of the Kolochava museum complex, was opened in 1928. Children of local Jews and representatives of the Czech government used to study here. The school was operational for only 7 years, but Czech language is still being taught here.
For those who want to dive into the atmosphere of Soviet times, there's a Soviet school offering history lessons. Pupils at such classes are all dressed as Soviet pioneers.
Soviet times aren't that far gone, it's been only 23 years since they moved to archives and museums. But we're preserving all these things from that epoch and with time, when people start considering Soviet times distant history we'll have everything ready here. said Stanislav Ardzhevitin, a patron of Kolochava museums performing a role of the school's principal.
The Soviet era is also represented by actors playing military personnel, re-enacting village life during the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic.
The construction of a defence trench, known as the Arpada line, can also be observed in Kolochava. The restored defensive line is the longest in Europe.
The museum's administrator Vasyl Debrak who plays the commander's role says: The construction of the Arpada line started back in the 1940s. At first it included several defence points that in years 1943-44 have grown into a big defence system.
The best way to get to the mountains in Kolochava is by an APC (armoured personnel carrier) and special tours for visitors are organised on a regular basis.
The patron of Kolochava museum Stanislav Ardzhevitin was born in the village, but moved to Kiev a long time ago. His love of his home has led him to try and promote it as much as possible. Many actors participating in the museums' performances are his friends and relatives.
During the 2 centuries my village has been a part of 15 different countries and state-formations. All those were different cultures and different people. But Kolochava residents have been soaking all of it up and passing from one epoch to another, from one generation to another. So it has all been preserved and now the cultures represented in our museums include Czech, Jewish, Hungarian and Romanian, says Ardzhevitin.
This village is pretty as a picture, but is also a unique place which is preserving the culture and traditions of generations past.

Transcaucasia in World War 1 I THE GREAT WAR Special
A big thanks also goes out to Nate Maddex for helping us to make sense of this region and its complex history.
The Caucasus region with its many different ethnic groups and its resources was always of particular interest to the greater powers like Russia, Persia or the Ottoman Empire. In the late 19th and early 20th century, the idea of ethnic self determination and resulting national movements, the fluctuating powers situation caused by World War 1 created a unique situation for Georgians, Azerbaijanis and Armenians.

HMAS AE2
HMAS AE2 (originally known as AE2) was an E-class submarine of the Royal Australian Navy (RAN). One of two submarines ordered for the fledgling navy, AE2 was built by Vickers Armstrong in England and was commissioned into the RAN in 1914. Together with her sister submarine, HMAS AE1, the boat then sailed to Australia in what was, at the time, the longest voyage ever undertaken by a submarine.
After the start of World War I, AE2 was sent to German New Guinea with the Australian Naval and Military Expeditionary Force, then spent time patrolling around Fiji. With no need for submarines in the Pacific or Indian theatres, AE2 was towed to the Mediterranean, and arrived off Egypt in early 1915. The boat was assigned to the Dardanelles Campaign, and was the first submarine to successfully penetrate the waterway and enter the Sea of Marmara. With orders to run amok inside Turkish territory, AE2 operated for five days before mechanical faults forced her to the surface, where she was damaged by the torpedo boat Sultanhisar. The submarine was scuttled by her crew, all of whom were captured.

Ukrainian Forces Ordered To Leave Crimea
Ukraine's acting president said the defence ministry was given the order on Monday as Russian troops cemented their control over one of Kiev's last remaining bases in the region.
Speaking in parliament Oleksander Turchinov said the decision was taken in the face of threats to the lives and health of our service personnel.
He said: The National Defence and Security Council has instructed the Defence Ministry to carry out a re-deployment of military units in Crimea and carry out the evacuation of their families.
Russian troops, backed by helicopters and armoured personnel carriers, forced their way into the base in Feodosia in the early hours of Monday morning.
Ukrainian defence ministry spokesman Vladislav Seleznyov said: The invading troops were using stun grenades and also firing automatic weapons ... The interior of the compound is full of Russian troops.
Monday's seizure came two days after Russian troops stormed the Belbek base
In a statement on his Facebook page, Mr Seleznyov added that paratroopers descended into the base from four helicopters hovering above.
He said three Russian vehicles were then seen leaving the base with Ukrainian marines whose hands had been tied up.
Ukrainian army officer, First Lieutenant Anatoly Mozgovoy, confirmed shots were fired at unarmed Ukrainian soldiers during the seizure, however there are currently no reports of any injuries.
The Feodosia base had been one of the last few military facilities still flying Ukrainian flags after Russia's annexation of Crimea.
Those flags have now reportedly been removed.
Russian troops violently flushed out other remaining pockets of Ukrainian military influence in Crimea on Saturday, smashing armoured vehicles through the walls of Belbek air force base in a swift takeover.
President Obama will hold crisis talks with G7 leaders later on Monday
Speaking in Amsterdam on Monday US President Barack Obama said Europe and the United States are united in their support for the Ukrainian interim government.
He said both the EU and US were prepared to impose a cost on Russia for its actions so far.
Later on Monday the president will head a crisis meeting on the sidelines of a nuclear security summit in The Hague, attended by G7 leaders.
The meeting will likely discuss concerns that Russia could be looking to extend its control beyond Crimea.
Nato's top commander in Europe, General Philip Breedlove, has warned that Russia's military force massing on Ukraine's border was very, very sizeable and very, very ready.
He said he was worried the Russian military could make a move for Moldova's breakaway Transdniestria region.
General Breedlove is concerned about the size of Russia's troop build-up
There is absolutely sufficient force postured on the eastern border of Ukraine to run to Transdniestria if the decision was made to do that and that is very worrisome, he said.
Transdniestria, a narrow strip of land to Ukraine's southwest, already has a Russian military presence and most people there favour a union with the country.
White House deputy national security adviser Tony Blinken echoed the suggestion that President Putin could be plotting further action.
It's deeply concerning to see the Russian troop build-up on the border, he told CNN.
It creates the potential for incidents, for instability. It's likely that what they're trying to do is intimidate the Ukrainians. It's possible that they're preparing to move in.
Russian President Vladimir Putin last week signed papers making Crimea part of Russia, saying it was complying with international agreements and had no plans to invade.
There are fears Russian forces are eyeing Ukraine's Transdniestria region
It has also called the soldiers who took over Ukrainian bases in Crimea self-defence forces.
Most experts agree there is no way of winning back Crimea from Russia.
On Monday ex-Chief of the General Staff Lord Dannatt said Western weakness had allowed Putin to become bold on his own fringes and seize the region.
He called for heightened military spending in the UK and as well as tougher sanctions against Russia.
The US and European Union have already targeted some of Mr Putin's closest political and business allies with personal sanctions and have threatened broader economic sanctions if his forces encroach on other parts of Ukraine with large Russian-speaking populations.
Crimea landgrab 'cannot be won back', say experts
Germany, which has close trade ties with Moscow, said the EU was united in its readiness to impose sanctions on Russia if necessary.

SUMMARY
=======
The Schutzstaffel (SS; also stylized as with Armanen runes; German pronunciation: [ˈʃʊtsˌʃtafl̩] (listen); literally Protection Squadron) was a major paramilitary organization under Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party (NSDAP) in Nazi Germany, and later throughout German-occupied Europe during World War II. It began with a small guard unit known as the Saal-Schutz (Hall Security) made up of NSDAP volunteers to provide security for party meetings in Munich. In 1925, Heinrich Himmler joined the unit, which had by then been reformed and given its final name. Under his direction (1929–45) it grew from a small paramilitary formation to one of the most powerful organizations in Nazi Germany. From 1929 until the regime's collapse in 1945, the SS was the foremost agency of security, surveillance, and terror within Germany and German-occupied Europe.
The two main constituent groups were the Allgemeine SS (General SS) and Waffen-SS (Armed SS). The Allgemeine SS was responsible for enforcing the racial policy of Nazi Germany and general policing, whereas the Waffen-SS consisted of combat units within Nazi Germany's military. A third component of the SS, the SS-Totenkopfverbände (SS-TV), ran the concentration camps and extermination camps. Additional subdivisions of the SS included the Gestapo and the Sicherheitsdienst (SD) organizations. They were tasked with the detection of actual or potential enemies of the Nazi state, the neutralization of any opposition, policing the German people for their commitment to Nazi ideology, and providing domestic and foreign intelligence.
The SS was the organization most responsible for the genocidal killing of an estimated 5.5 to 6 million Jews and millions of other victims in the Holocaust. Members of all of its branches committed war crimes and crimes against humanity during World War II (1939–45). The SS was also involved in commercial enterprises and exploited concentration camp inmates as slave labor. After Nazi Germany's defeat, the SS and the NSDAP were judged by the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg to be criminal organizations.

Ukrainian Air Force
The Ukrainian Air Force (Ukrainian: Повітряні Сили України, Povitryani Syly Ukrayiny) is a part of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Ukrainian Air Force headquarters is located in the city of Vinnytsia. When the Soviet Union dissolved in 1991, a large number of aircraft were left on Ukrainian territory. Ever since, the Ukrainian air force has been downsizing and upgrading its forces. In spite of these efforts, the main inventory of the air force consists of Soviet-made aircraft. Currently 36,300 personnel and 187 aircraft are in service in the Ukrainian air force and air defense forces but approximately only eighty aircraft are airworthy. All ICBMs and strategic bombers have been taken out of service (some however were given to Russia).
Since 1991's Ukrainian independence the air force has suffered from chronic underinvestment, leading to the bulk of its inventory becoming mothballed or otherwise becoming inoperable.

A note on 'Ivan the Terrible' - in Russia, Ivan IV has the epithet 'Гро́зный' meaning 'Great' or 'Formidable'. So why is he known as Ivan 'the Terrible' in English? Because he was evil or useless or because of anti-Russian bias? No, because 'Terrible' in English also means awesome or formidable - this was well understood when 'Гро́зный' was first translated into English centuries ago, but now fewer people understand this. (see definitions 3 & 4 here: The name stuck, and Ivan IV has been known as Ivan the Terrible ever since.

The Ukrainian Air Force (Ukrainian: Повітряні Сили України, Povitryani Syly Ukrayiny) is a part of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.Ukrainian Air Force headquarters is located in the city of Vinnytsia. When the Soviet Union dissolved in 1991, a large number of aircraft were left on Ukrainian territory. Ever since, the Ukrainian air force has been downsizing and upgrading its forces. In spite of these efforts, the main inventory of the air force consists of Soviet-made aircraft. Currently 36,300 personnel and 144 aircraft are in service in the Ukrainian air force and air defense forces but approximately only eighty aircraft are airworthy. All ICBMs and strategic bombers have been taken out of service (some however were given to Russia).
The tasks of the Air Force of Ukraine are: winning operational air superiority, delivering air strikes against enemy units and facilities, covering troops against enemy air strikes, providing air support to the Land Force and the Navy, disrupting enemy military and state management, damaging and destroying enemy communication, and providing support by air in the form of reconnaissance, air drops, troops and cargo transportation.
The major mission of the Air Force is to protect the air space of Ukraine. In peace-time, this is carried out by flying air-space control missions over the entire territory of Ukraine (603,700 square km), and by preventing air space intrusion along the aerial borders (totaling almost 7,000 km, including 5,600 km of land and 1,400 km of sea). Every single day, more than 2,200 service personnel and civilian employees of the Air Force, employing 400 items of weapons and equipment, are summoned to perform defense duties. On average, the Ukrainian radar forces detect and track more than 1,000 targets daily. As a result, in 2006 two illegal crossings of the state border were prevented and 28 violations of Ukrainian air space were prevented. Due to such increased strengthening of air space control, the number of air space violations decreased by 35% compared to the previous year, even though the amount of air traffic increased by 30%.
