World Cadet Games are not only a platform where you can come into the spotlight as a talented athlete. It is a space that unites military servicemen of different states around high humanistic goals, ideals of tolerance, honest struggle and fellowship, brings peoples and armies closer together. I am sure that the competitions will become a bright and unforgettable event, will serve to strengthen peace and friendship, develop the best traditions of military sport. I wish all participants good luck and convincing victories! SERGEY SHOYGU Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation General of the Army 3 Dear Cadets, As CISM President, I would like to welcome you in one of the biggest CISM events, the 3rd edition of CISM World Cadet Games (WCG) 2020, in Russia, the largest country in the world. The 3rd CISM WCG 2020 will host many CISM countries and represent not only the continuity of Military generations in the world of sport, but also the new generation of military leaders. Therefore, dear Cadets, you, the new generation of leaders, have the privilege to continue CISM history and, later on, to write your own trajectory in military sports as your predecessors have performed. This is a unique opportunity for all participating cadet teams, through sports competitions, to increase friendly relations between Armed Forces and to promote physical education and sport ideals. Moreover, the Cadet Games is a competition where the solidarity and fair play prevail in the name of CISM. Dear friends, CISM is the only organization in the world that is able to represent 20.000.000 militaries from all nations to share experiences in sport fields, instead of battlefields according to CISM motto “Friendship through Sport”. To conclude, I would like to invite you, in Russia, to one of the biggest sport CISM events in order to participate to the 3rd CISM WCG 2020. I am looking forward to seeing you compete with respect, friendship, team spirit, without doping, respect for written and unwritten rules such as equality, integrity and tolerance since these are the building pillars of military principles in the world.

It was .355” in diameter). In power level, it is about q widely distributed and manufactured in three other midway between the .380 ACP and the 9mm h countries besides its native Russia. It was the most Luger. Makarov’s design was accepted as stan- t ubiquitous sidearm of the Communist empire dur- dard military issue in 1951. It proved to be an d ing the Cold War era. Often regarded as the effective combination of German and Russian b “Russian PP,” it is in fact quite a different pistol. It’s ideas. It was reliable, effective, and easy to man- a a classic and effective design, made in huge numbers and distributed through- out the world. As World War II ended, the Russians were still using the Model 1895 gas-seal Nagant revolver and the very crude TT- 33 Tokarev 7.62mm semiauto pistol. The Tokarev cartridge was a spin-off of and virtually inter- changeable with the 7.63mm Mauser, a bottlenecked high-veloc- ity number. The Tokarev pistol was an interesting design that looked a lot like our 1911 pistol, but had an en-bloc remov- able sear and hammer system, and no manual safety. It was an adequate but flawed design, and although many newer designs were considered before and during WWII, none were picked to replace it.

  • “You Are a Political Soldier:” the People's War in N'wamitwa 1989
    “You Are a Political Soldier:” The People’s War in N’wamitwa 1989-1994 by Faelan Lundeberg Bachelor of Arts, University of Victoria, 2014 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History Faelan Lundeberg, 2019 University of Victoria All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. ii “You Are a Political Soldier:” The People’s War in N’wamitwa 1989-1994 by Faelan Lundeberg Bachelor of Arts, University of Victoria, 2014 Supervisory Committee Dr. Elizabeth Vibert, Department of History, University of Victoria. Supervisor Dr. Andrew Wender, Department of History, University of Victoria. Departmental Member iii Abstract: In the waning days of apartheid, an operative of Umkhonto we Sizwe, the armed wing of South Africa’s most powerful dissident organization the African National Congress, returned to his home community of N’wamitwa after over a decade in exile. His mission was to spark a people’s war, an imported form of revolutionary warfare developed by Mao Zedong and perfected by the North Vietnamese in their revolutionary struggles. In this thesis I examine the political context in which the ANC chose to adopt the strategy and how it was imported into South Africa. The later chapters of this thesis use N’wamitwa as a case study examining how a people’s war is successfully implemented on the ground. I argue that one can see the three phases of a people’s war as articulated by Mao play out in N’wamitwa between the years 1989 to 1994 This piece was largely written and researched using oral testimony from nine former members of the MK in N’wamitwa and thus can also be seen as a collection of personal histories of the South African Freedom Struggle.

    Группа 305-1 подгруппа Занятие 1. Тема: Пистолет Макарова Дата: 04.06.2021г. Учебная дисциплина: Английский язык Срок выполнения: до 05.06.2021г. включительно Тема: Пистолет Макарова Задание 1. Прочитайте текст. Выпишите из текста незнакомые слова, переведите их. Переведите текст устно. The PM The PM is a semi-automatic pistol design. Under the project leadership of Nikolay Fyodorovich Makarov, it became the Soviet Union's standard military side arm from 1951-1991. The Makarov pistol resulted from a design competition for replacing the Tokarev TT-33 semi- automatic pistol. Rather than building a pistol to an existing cartridge in the Soviet inventory, Nikolai Makarov utilized essentially the "9mm Ultra" cartridge which had been designed by Carl Walther G.m.b.H. for the German Luftwaffe during the Second World War. Walther's cartridge became the 9x18mm Makarov. For simplicity and economy, the Makarov pistol - which was principally a scaled-up Walther PP - was of straight blowback operation, with the 9x18mm cartridge being the most powerful cartridge it could safely fire. Although the nominal calibre was 9.0mm, the actual bullet was 9.3mm in diameter, being shorter and wider and thus incompatible with pistols chambered for 9x19mm Parabellum cartridges. Consequently, Soviet ammunition was unusable in NATO firearms, and in the event of war NATO forces would be unable to use ammunition from Soviet sources. In 1951, the Pistol of Makarov (PM) was selected because of its simplicity (few moving parts), economy, easy manufacturing, and reasonable stopping power. It remained in wide front line service with Soviet military and police until the end of the U.S.S.R.
