THE FIRST HALF of the twentieth century was a dark age for British deer, in England especially. Two world wars and their aftermath saw the closure of very many ancient deer parks. Some were converted to farmland for wartime and post war food production. Others were requisitioned as sites for military camps or for other defence purposes.

  • Paratrooper Training Guide

    Paratrooper Training Guide

    Paratrooper training guide Continue During World War II, American paratroopers fought from Port Moresby, New Guinea to North Africa. They were trained to fight in any part of the world in any conditions, in any climate, or in any terrain. Whether it's a desert environment or snow-capped mountains, paratroopers can fight anywhere. Training to be an airborne soldier was difficult, but so was the job. What distinguishes airborne soldiers from each other was their ability to jump into battle. The paratroopers are not ordinary soldiers. Their battlefields are behind enemy lines. They fall silently from the sky. They are messengers of death and destruction. Easily armed, unsupported by tanks and heavy artillery, they fight time after time against insurmountable odds and win. Some of the best World War II Aircraft Nose art here's how a paratrooper's fight is done. A volunteer candidate learns to jump from the stands six feet in the air, fall and fall. Trainasium is a 60-foot high rate air attack. It looks like a jungle gym on steroids built for the Giants. Its unique design checks the readiness of the recruit to jump out of the plane. If a candidate is afraid of heights or jumps out of an airplane, the train puts them face to face with their fears. Running, crawling and jumping at altitude, it simulates the exit phase of the parachute jump. A 60-foot beam walking in the air was a passage or a failed event. It is a process that builds bodies and spirits. Training gets tougher as the weeks go by.

The vast scale of the forces deployed in that conflict required the mobilization of whole populations, not only to provide the military personnel, but also the logistical support on which they depended. Added to this was an array of ancillary services - transport, medicine, intelligence, science, civil, agriculture, etc. - without which modern industrial warfare could not function. They were organized and controlled by the state and correspondingly became targets for attack by an enemy that, thanks to air power, could strike more or less anywhere and at any time. For the first time, therefore, it was not only the territories of the combatants that had to be defended but their populations too.
