  • The Difficulties of Conflict Classification at Sea: Distinguishing Incidents At
    International Review of the Red Cross (2016), 98 (2), 449–464. War and security at sea doi:10.1017/S1816383117000327 The difficulties of conflict classification at sea: Distinguishing incidents at sea from hostilities Wolff Heintschel von Heinegg Professor Heintschel von Heinegg holds the Chair of Public Law, in particular public international law, European law and foreign constitutional law, at the Europa-Universita¨t Viadrina in Frankfurt (Oder), Germany. Abstract Incidents at sea between warships and military aircraft often involve more than provocative actions – they may be aggressive and can sometimes result in death and destruction. In view of the low threshold of a resort to armed force by one State against another that would bring an international armed conflict into existence, it is rather difficult to determine whether incidents at sea remain below that threshold. Similar, albeit less difficult problems arise with regard to forceful measures taken by States against foreign merchant vessels. Here it is important to clearly distinguish between law enforcement at sea and the exercise of belligerent rights. Keywords: international armed conflict, resort to armed force, warships, military aircraft, merchant vessels, incidents at sea, harassment, law enforcement at sea, exercise of belligerent rights, visit and search, capture. Introduction The sea is a special environment. For good reasons, the ships of all States enjoy freedom of navigation and other well-established rights, because their economies © icrc 2017 449 W. Heintschel von Heinegg are highly dependent upon the use of the world’s oceans. At the same time, coastal States enjoy various rights in the sea areas off their coasts, which they may enforce against foreign vessels, including by a use of proportionate force.

  • Incidents at Sea Agreement: a Recipe for Disaster
    07_PEDROZO MASTER.DOCX (DO NOT DELETE) 7/3/2012 3:30 PM The U.S.-China Incidents at Sea Agreement: A Recipe for Disaster Pete Pedrozo* INTRODUCTION On May 25, 1968, after making several close passes of the USS Essex, a Soviet Tu-16 Badger bomber crashed into the Norwegian Sea as it was attempting another pass, killing the entire crew.1 Two weeks earlier, Soviet warships had collided with the USS Walker in the Sea of Japan after the U.S. destroyer maneuvered to prohibit the Soviet ships from disrupting flight operations on board the USS Hornet.2 These incident culminated nearly a decade of dangerous incidents between U.S. and Soviet naval forces – close passes by low-flying aircraft, intentional shouldering (bumping) of surface ships, threatening maneuvers, and mock surface and air attacks against U.S. naval vessels – and laid the groundwork for the negotiation and signing of the Incidents at Sea (INCSEA) Agreement by the governments of the United States and the U.S.S.R. in 1972. INCSEA was signed in Moscow by then Secretary of the Navy John Warner and Soviet Admiral Sergei Gorshkov, and, for the next forty years, it all but eliminated unsafe and unprofessional aerobatics and ship handling when U.S. and Soviet (later Russian) forces operated in close proximity to one another on the high seas. A Protocol extending the prohibition on simulated attacks to nonmilitary ships was signed in 1973.3 That same year, nearly 150 U.S. and Soviet warships deployed to the Eastern Mediterranean in an effort to support their respective allies during the Yom Kippur War.

ARANT [email protected] DATE OF INFORMATION: 15 FEBRUARY 2015 WHEN YOU GO HOME TELL THEM OF US AND SAY FOR YOUR TOMORROW WE GAVE OUR TODAY KOHIMA EPITAPH BRITISH 2nd DIVISION KOHIMA WAR CEMETERY 01. PURPOSE. This Wall Note lists the Medal of Honor (MOH) recipients whose names are engraved on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial (VVM) – the Wall. The list includes: (01) rank/rate held at the time of the action, (02) name, (03) service, (04) unit association at time of action, (05) date of action, and (06) Wall location. The stories of four MOH recipients are told briefly in paragraph 10. The complete list of the 159 Viet Nam conflict MOH names that are inscribed on the Wall may be found following paragraph 10. U. S. Park National Service (USNPS) Rangers/volunteers may desire to download the list (pages 20-27) for retention in their copies of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund (VVMF) Directory of Names. This Wall Note also lists the living Viet Nam conflict MOH recipients (pages 27-29) and the Viet Nam conflict recipients who are not inscribed on the Wall and who are not living (pages 29-31). Page 1 of 39 A. The correct name of the MOH is the Medal of Honor and NOT the Congressional Medal of Honor. The MOH is awarded by direction of the President in the name of Congress. There is a Congressional Medal of Honor Society (CMOHS), which is an organization chartered by Congress and may be a factor in the Medal of Honor’s “alternate” name.
