Gulf War 20th: Apache Raid
By Clarence A. Robinson Jr. - February 2, 2011
Flying low to avoid detection, Apache attack helicopters launched missiles and rockets against Iraqi early warning sites deep in enemy territory. This intrepid night raid by U.S. Army and Air Force aircrews annihilated two separate enemy radar stations, signaling the beginning of Desert Storm. Minutes later, fixed-wing aircraft flying through this corridor headed for targets in Baghdad.
Maj. Gen. (Ret.) Richard A. Cody led that tricky, low-altitude Apache assault. At 2:36 a.m. on Jan. 17, 1991, he was the commanding officer, 1st Battalion, 101st Aviation Regiment. Within four minutes, the Apaches’ deadly weapons destroyed all of the radars and associated equipment, providing a 10-kilometer-wide path through which allied fighters and bombers could approach Iraqi targets undetected.

Gulf War
A day after the deadline set in Resolution, the coalition launched a massive air campaign codenamed Operation Desert Storm with more than 1,000 sorties launching per day. It all began on January 17, 1991, when eight U.S. AH-64 Apache helicopters, and two MH-53 Pave Low helicopters destroyed Iraqi radar sites near the Iraqi-Saudi Arabian border at 2:38 A.M. Baghdad time, which could have warned Iraq of an upcoming attack.

Apache Attack
On cue, ten seconds later, the helicopters unleashed a salvo of laser-guided Hellfire missiles. "This one's for you, Saddam ," muttered CW03 Dave Jones, the pilot of another Apache.
The shots, fired in the predawn hours of January 17, 1991, marked the start of Operation Desert Storm and were among the most critical of the war
from my private journal, as me, Kerry Burgess, typed by me after being released from the USA Veterans Affairs psychiatric hospital and while sitting in a grungy two-computer room in a homeless shelter on the waterfront in downtown Seattle:
excerpt from my private journal as Kerry Burgess: August 9, 2006
My hunch is that I was taken captive again by natives, where they threw me in to fight a lion. There is this memory I have been thinking about for a while. It was when i was a kid, maybe 7 years old. Mom was married to James Nevell and we lived in De Queen. He had not gone back into the Marines at that time or he had just gotten out. I think it was the former. Anyway, one day, I was rummaging through our storage shed and I found his U.S. Marines-issued saber. Or I found a machete that day. I remember both happening. Anyway, I was playing with the machete or the saber out in the yard and I was chopping away at any threatening blades of grass or tree limbs. At one point, I started to chop a tree limb that was laying on the ground in front of me. After I swung the blade over my head to strike down on the limb, mom's new puppy ran between my legs and run under the blade. I struck the little bastard square on its backbone, but remarkably, I didn't even break the skin. It ran off yelping but wasn't even bleeding. I was very scared because I thought I had just killed it, but it was all right. As I was just writing that memory, I felt a greater association to it and that Costner movie I just wrote about. When I started writing about hitting that dog, I was thinking about something with lions. As in, a lion rushed at me, I leapt into the air, did a something like a somersault, but not the backflip, rather the other....what do you call that? It wouldn't be a backflip....but something like a side-flip....I'll have to look that up. Anyway, as I flipped over the top of the lion, I either punched its backbone or I had some kind of weapon I used to break its back. I have no idea if this is memory or imagination but I think of this many times. I just wish I knew.

Apache Attack

The shots, fired in the predawn hours of January 17, 1991, marked the start of Operation Desert Storm and were among the most critical of the war, blinding Iraq's early warning net at a key moment. US Central Command relied entirely on the Apaches and USAF special operations helicopters to do the job. "If something had happened and we didn't do 100 percent [destruction]," said one gunner, CW04 Lou Hall, "a lot of people were going to get hurt."
The Apaches did achieve 100 percent destruction, or close to it. Eyewitnesses report that, when the Hellfires hit the targets, the radar bases evaporated in clouds of smoke and flame. In the four and a half minutes it took to complete the task, the Apaches had, in the words of Gen. H. Norman Schwarzkopf, "plucked out the eyes" of Iraq's Soviet-supplied air defenses.

The notion in the dream was as though I overheard one person comment "And who could ever forget that backflip?" to another person, in regards to a backflip I did one time.

Cardiology, Combustion and CubeSats Before Cargo Ship Leaves
Mark Garcia
Posted on January 30, 2020
Cardiology, combustion and CubeSats filled Thursday’s research schedule as three Expedition 61 crewmates are one week away from returning to Earth. The Cygnus space freighter is also poised to depart the International Space Station on Friday and complete one more mission.
NASA astronaut Christina Koch is nearing the end of her 328-day mission aboard the orbiting lab. She will land in Kazakhstan Feb. 6 aboard the Soyuz MS-13 crew ship with Alexander Skvortsov of Roscosmos and Luca Parmitano of ESA (European Space Agency). Koch blasted off to join the station crew on March 14 while Skvortsov and Parmitano began their mission on July 20.
When Koch lands, her mission-stay will be the second longest single spaceflight by a U.S. astronaut behind former astronaut Scott Kelly. He lived aboard the station for 340 continuous days.
NASA Flight Engineer Andrew Morgan juggled a pair of experiments this morning. He ran the Hourglass study observing how simulated planetary materials behave during different gravity conditions. Next, he cleaned a furnace that exposes materials to high temperatures and levitates them to research their thermophysical properties.
Parmitano started his day on cardiology research before switching to fire safety studies. The station commander first scanned portions of his body with an ultrasound device. The biomedical study is helping doctors understand what happens to the heart and blood vessels in space. He then moved on and burned a variety of fabric and acrylic samples. Scientists are using the data to model how flames spread in space to improve fire safety procedures and products in space and on Earth.
The Cygnus space freighter is packed, closed and ready for one more mission after its robotic release from the Canadarm2 Friday at 9:35 a.m. EST. It will deploy eight CubeSats for communications and atmospheric research several hours after departing the orbiting lab. Flight Engineer Jessica Meir installed the CubeSats, packed inside the SlingShot small satellite deployer, on Cygnus’ hatch Thursday afternoon.

[Lecturing in class]
Indiana Jones: Archeology is the search for fact, not truth. If it's truth you're interested in, Dr. Tyree's Philosophy class is right down the hall. So forget any ideas you've got about lost cities, exotic travel, and digging up the world. We do not follow maps to buried treasure, and "X" never, ever marks the spot.

Stargazer
Strange how I decided to watch one of these episodes for the first time in recent memory and how this was the episode I chose to watch today. What this reminds me of is that story about how I survived the crash of the L-1011 "Stargazer" on 27 June 1994 because I was propelled through the windshield as I was the pilot of the aircraft. The reality is the none of us actually survived the crash. The aircraft hit the ground at a tremendous speed after spiraling from forty feet above the ground and was virtually vaporized upon impact. I am the recipient of some kind of highly advanced technology that allows me to reemerge in physical form after my physical body is destroyed and I did reemerge that day but after about two days had elapsed in the real world and I was over a thousand miles from the crash point. There is some kind of force that controls that advanced technology that controlling force makes changes to the reemergence process and that was why I did not immediately reemerge. Until 1998, every time I reemerged after my physical body was destroyed, I always returned as the exact same person I was before, with knowledge in my mind up to the very second that my physical body was destroyed.
My return in 1998 was different though. I returned but I am a composite version of Tom Reagan and Kerry Burgess. I am not as tall as Tom Reagan and I am as tall as Kerry Burgess but I do not have the physical scars of Kerry Burgess, such as the gunshot wound scar he had on his shoulder.

It's a Good Life (1961)
Quotes
[first lines]
Narrator: [Opening Narration] Tonight's story on The Twilight Zone is somewhat unique and calls for a different kind of introduction. This, as you may recognize, is a map of the United States, and there's a little town there called Peaksville. On a given morning not too long ago, the rest of the world disappeared and Peaksville was left all alone. Its inhabitants were never sure whether the world was destroyed and only Peaksville left untouched or whether the village had somehow been taken away. They were, on the other hand, sure of one thing: the cause. A monster had arrived in the village.

Belloq: I see your taste in friends remains consistent. How odd that it should end this way for us, after so many stimulating encounters. I almost regret it. Where shall I find a new adversary so close to my own level?
Indiana: Try the local sewer.
Belloq: You and I are very much alike. Archaeology is our religion, yet we have both fallen from the purer faith. Out methods have not differed as much as you pretend. I am a shadowy reflection of you. It would take only a nudge to make you like me, to push you out of the light.
Indiana: Now you're getting nasty.
Belloq: You know it's true. How nice. Look at this.
[holds out a pocket watch]
Belloq: It's worthless. Ten dollars from a vendor in the street. But I take it, I bury it in the sand for a thousand years, it becomes priceless... like the Ark. Men will kill for it. Men like you and me.

1981 protests in Kosovo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In March and April 1981, a student protest in Pristina, the capital of the then Socialist Autonomous Province of Kosovo, led to widespread protests by Kosovo Albanians demanding more autonomy within the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. The Presidency of Yugoslavia declared a state of emergency in Pristina and Kosovska Mitrovica, which led to rioting. The unrest was suppressed by a large police intervention that caused numerous casualties, and a period of political repression followed.
Student protests
The demonstrations started on 11 March 1981, originally as a spontaneous small-scale protest for better food in the school cafeteria and improved living conditions in the dormitories. Tired of being made to wait in line, for hours, for poor quality food, students began demonstrating under Besim Baraliu's command, who later was arrested. Two to four thousand demonstrators were dispersed by police, with around a hundred arrests made.
Aftermath
The demonstrations in Kosovo were the beginning of a deep crisis in Yugoslavia that later led to its dissolution. The government response to the demonstrations changed the political discourse in the country in a way that significantly impaired its ability to sustain itself in the future.

Chinese doctor who raised alarm over coronavirus dies from disease, hospital confirms
Dr. Li Wenliang was punished by police for warning people about the respiratory illness in online chat forums.
Feb. 6, 2020, 7:59 AM PST
By Henry Austin
A prominent Chinese doctor, who had been punished by police for blowing the whistle on the coronavirus outbreak, has died, the Wuhan Central Hospital reported.
The hospital confirmed Dr. Li Wenliang's death in a post on Weibo, the Chinese version of Twitter: "Ophthalmologist Li Wenliang of our hospital, who was unfortunately infected during the fight against the pneumonia epidemic of the new coronavirus infection, failed after all efforts, and died at 2:58 on February 7, 2020. We deeply regret and mourn this."
The confirmation from the hospital came after a day of confusion over the fate of Li, who had tried to warn his colleagues about the deadly new respiratory virus in online chat forums.
Two sources had confirmed Li's death Thursday, according to the Global Times, which reported that he had been reprimanded for “posting false information on the Internet,” in the early days of the outbreak.
The World Health Organization also tweeted Thursday that it was "deeply saddened" by Li's death.
In response to a question during a WHO news conference Thursday, Dr. Mike Ryan, head of the agency's Health Emergencies Program, said: “We should celebrate his life and mourn his death with his colleagues."
He added that the organization was “very sad” to hear of Li’s death from the virus.
However, WHO later clarified that it had "no information" about Li's status.

@WHO
At today's #2019nCoV media briefing @DrMikeRyan was asked about reports that Dr Li Wenliang had passed away, and he expressed condolences.
WHO has no information on the status of Dr Li.
10:35 AM - Feb 6, 2020
Later, the Wuhan Central Hospital, where Li worked and was being treated, initially released a statement on its Weibo social media channel contradicting the reports of his death.
"In the process of fighting the coronavirus, the eye doctor from our hospital Li Wenliang was unfortunately infected. He is now in critical condition and we are doing our best to rescue him," it said. The hospital confirmed his death in a subsequent statement.
Li worked as an ophthalmologist in the city of Wuhan — the epicenter of the outbreak — according to a report in The New York Times earlier this month, which said he and his wife, who have one child, are expecting their second.
He told the newspaper via text message that "it would have been a lot better" if Chinese officials had disclosed information about the epidemic earlier.
"There should be a lot more openness and transparency," he said.
The number of people infected globally rose to more than 28,200 and the death toll climbed past 560, with the overwhelming majority of cases in China, WHO said in its media briefing Thursday.
China's National Health Commission said the number of infected patients who were "discharged and cured" stood at 1,153. No details were given, but milder cases have been seen in younger, healthier people.

The American Presidency Project
DONALD J. TRUMP
45th President of the United States: 2017 ‐ 2021
Remarks at a Swearing-in Reception Honoring Secretary of Defense Mark T. Esper at the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia
July 25, 2019
Well, thank you very much to our great Vice President, and thank you to all of the extraordinary patriots here at the United States Department of Defense, the world's largest building. I've heard for many years, the world's largest building. And it's under great leadership.
Your devotion, strength, and courage keep America safe, strong, and free. It's because of you that the United States military is the most powerful fighting force on the face of the Earth.
I want to express our gratitude to the Old Guard and to all of the servicemembers in today's review for their extraordinary commitment to excellence and their unwavering loyalty to our nation. It is the greatest honor of my life to serve as your Commander in Chief.
Let me also recognize the incredible U.S. Navy Sea Chanters and the band for that beautiful rendition of our national anthem. It was really beautiful, and thank you very much. Fantastic job. Thank you. Thank you.
We're gathered here today to celebrate the swearing-in of America's new Secretary of Defense, Mark T. Esper. Secretary Esper, your lifetime of noble service has prepared you for this immense responsibility. And that's what it is: immense responsibility. On behalf of our entire country, thank you, and congratulations. Congratulations.
I have no doubt—I know you well—that you will thrive in the performance of your duties and make all Americans—everybody in this great country—all Americans very, very proud. They're right now very proud, but they're going to be even more so as time goes by. People love our country more than ever, and our country is respected again. Remember that.
I'm delighted that many members of your family could be here for this special occasion, including your wonderful wife Leah, your mother Polly, and your children Luke and Kathryn. Thank you. Thank you very much. Congratulations to a great family. Thank you very much. Great family.
Also joining us are Acting Secretary Kevin McAleenan, Acting Administrator Chris Pilkerton, Director Dan Coats, Representatives Kay Granger, John Rice Carter, and many members of the diplomatic corps.
With us, as well, are many distinguished military leaders: Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Paul Selva. Where is Paul? Paul? Paul. Acting Secretary of the Army Ryan McCarthy. Ryan? Ryan? Hi, Ryan. Stand up, Ryan. [Laughter] You're doing a great job. You're filling big shoes, Ryan. [Laughter] Acting Secretary of the Air Force Matthew Donovan. Thank you very much. Thank you, Secretary. Acting Secretary of the Navy Thomas Modly. Thank you, Thomas. Great.
Army Chief of Staff, General Mark Milley. Mark? Thank you, Mark. Congratulations to Mark. Coast Guard Commandant, Admiral Karl Schultz. Thank you, Admiral. Marine Corps Commandant, General David Berger. General, thank you very much. Air Force Chief of Staff, General David Goldfein. General, thank you very much. And Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral John Richardson. Thank you all. Thank you, Admiral. Over many decades, in times of war and peace, Mark Esper has answered the call of duty. He's never failed. He hails from Uniontown, Pennsylvania, the hometown of his personal hero, the legendary former Secretary of Defense and a great one, George Marshall.
Mark attended the United States Military Academy at West Point, graduated in 1986, receiving a commission in the infantry. Soon, he earned his tab—Ranger Tab—and fought with the famed 101st Airborne Division in the Gulf war. He was awarded the Bronze Star and the Combat Infantryman Badge for his service. Brave guy. They all told me he was a brave guy. I knew that anyway.
In total, Mark served in our Nation's military for 21 years. He completed his final Active Duty assignment right here at the Pentagon on the Army staff and then returned 6 years later as the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Negotiations Policy.
Over his career, Mark has advanced our national security in a variety of other government and private sector roles. He has worked in both Houses of Congress, advising lawmakers. I can see he had some talent, because he won—was it 98 to what? No, you got 90, right? Can you believe this? I don't believe it. I heard a "90." Ninety to eight, right? I don't know. I haven't heard that sound in a long time, Mark. [Laughter] Now I'm worried. [Laughter] Ninety to eight. Wow.
He served as vice president of Raytheon. Along the way, Mark earned a master's degree at Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government and a Ph.D. at George Washington University. In 2017, Mark was sworn in as Secretary of the United States Army, a position in which he earned universal admiration and respect. Tremendous respect.
At the Department of Defense, Secretary Esper will work with more than 2 million servicemembers and hundreds of thousands of civilian employees all dedicated to one critical mission: the defense of the Nation and of this great Nation's people.
I have absolute confidence that Mark will ensure that our incredible military is fully prepared to deter conflict and to defeat any foe. No enemy can match the awesome might of the American Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, and the United States Marines.
We had a budget approved when I first came in. Billions and billions of dollars more than it was previously, in the previous administration: $700 billion. Then, I went to $716 billion. And I won't even tell you what this one is. I can only tell you it's even more. Because we have rebuilt things that nobody ever even thought of rebuilding. We've added the greatest planes in the world, the greatest missiles in the world. We've upgraded our nuclear very, very powerfully, including new. We never want to have to use it. Pray to God that we never have to use it. But we have the best in the world in every aspect of military.
The sight of American warriors brings solace into the hearts of our friends and strikes fear into the hearts of our enemies. Our military today is more powerful, by far, than ever before. And 3 years ago, we could not have said that, could we, Mark?
We're giving our warfighters the tools they need to fight and win with overwhelming force. After years and years of budget cuts and all of the things that they've been doing to set us back with our military, we have more than made up for all of it.
We're building new tanks and ships and submarines and planes and missile systems to ensure that our warriors operate with unrivaled capability in conflict. Any battlefield will be a battlefield on which we win. We have given our servicemembers their largest pay raise in nearly a decade. And under this administration, we have faced the challenge of our time with clear eyes, fresh thinking, and bold determination.
Our first priority is always the safety and sovereignty of our Nation and our citizens. Here at home, we have deployed military forces to confront the grave national security crisis on our southern border. And I want to thank all of the great military leaders for the help you've given us on our southern border.
And, as you know, Mexico has now deployed 21,000 troops, which is something they've never done before. And they've been a tremendous help. Tremendous difference in the numbers—very rapidly. And we want to thank the country of Mexico and the President. No nation can be safe or secure that fails to control its borders.
In Syria and Iraq, thanks to the bravery of our warriors and their allies, the ISIS territorial caliphate has been 100 percent and just absolutely destroyed. And we did it in a very quick moment of time. As soon as I said, "I want to do it, and I want to do it fast," our military kicked in, and it happened very, very quickly.
Today we stand not far from where terrorists attacked the Pentagon on 9/11, claiming 184 precious lives. We will never forget the immortal sacrifice of those American patriots. We vow to do whatever it takes to protect our homeland, to safeguard our people from the threat of radical Islamic terrorism, and to preserve American freedom.
Around the world, America faces new threats and strategic rivals, it seems like all the time. We have met this competition with unmatched confidence, purpose, and resolve. We talk to all of them, and they talk to us with great, great respect. They respect our country so much more than they have for many, many decades. Right now they respect us more than they have in many, many years. And it's only going to get more so.
We are ensuring American dominance across every warfighting domain: land, air, sea, cyber, and now space. That is why, under Secretary Esper's leadership, we will—as Mike and Mark have already said, but it's so exciting to say. And whenever I make a speech, people start going wild. They stand up, and they clap, and I can't sit them down. And I have to wait, because I say, "We're launching the United States Space Force." They go absolutely wild. They understand that's where it's going to be at. And we're going to be there, and we're going to be there in every way that you can.
As we aim ever higher, I know the men and women of this department will never let up and never rest easy. Together, we will fulfill our sacred mission to protect the greatest Nation in the history of the world: the United States of America. With unyielding strength, we will defend our country, we will defend our people, and we will proudly defend our great American flag.
Secretary Esper, congratulations again to you and your family. This is an incredible day in the life and fabled history of the United States. Secretary of Defense, do you ever see that, looking into—do you ever see that one? As I watch all of these great men and women—you're going to do a great job, I have no doubt. Absolutely no doubt. No doubt.
We cannot wait to see all that you will achieve for our nation as the new Secretary of Defense. I want to thank everybody for being here. Very special people. God bless you, God bless our military, and God bless America.
Thank you very much, everybody. Thank you.

(Colonial One - Baltar is alone, with paperwork spread out before him)
Six: I see they've put you to work. (He looks over, sees her sitting next to him.) Ignoring me won't help.
Baltar: No, I've decided you're an expression of my, uh, subconscious mind playing itself out through my waking states.
Six: Oh, I'm only in your head?
Baltar: Exactly.
Six: Hmm. Have you considered the possibility that I could very well exist *only* in your head? Without being a hallucination? Maybe you see and hear me, because while you were sleeping, I implanted a chip in your brain that transmits my image right into your conscious mind.
Baltar: No, no, see that's me again. My subconscious self is expressing irrational fears, which I must choose to ignore.
Six: (moving closer to him) What are you working on?
Baltar: If you were really a chip in my head, I wouldn't have to tell you, now would I?
Six: Indulge me.
Baltar: I'm trying to figure out how you managed to pull this kind of an attack. You virtually shut down the entire defense network without firing a shot.
Baltar: Entire squadrons lost power just as they engaged the enemy. The CMP's a navigation program, but you, uh, you made changes to the programs that you were building in, backdoors for your company to exploit later.
Six: All true, in a sense.
Baltar: That was your job.
Six: Officially. Unofficially, I had other motives. We had something, Gaius. Something... special.
Baltar: This is insane.

What damage did Anthony Blunt's spy ring do to Britain?
00:00, 24 JUL 2009 UPDATED 16:02, 28 JAN 2012
BY MIRROR.CO.UK
Blunt, Burgess, Maclean, Philby, Cairncross... they are five typically British names.
It could almost be the first line in one of those Monty Python sketches set in an English public school.
But these were the names of the men who formed the Cambridge Spy Ring - five young men who were at the university together in the 1930s.
In addition to gadding about in dinner jackets, drinking too much champagne and generally behaving like characters from Brideshead Revisited, these young men found time to develop left-wing sympathies that brought them to the attention of Soviet intelligence recruiters.
And, unfortunately for us, they all went on to greater things later in life.
Guy Burgess and Donald Maclean, who worked for the Foreign Office, did a bunk to the Soviet Union when they were fingered by a defector in 1951.
Kim Philby, who was extraordinarily a senior figure in MI6, bluffed it out until 1961 when he too had to do a moonlight flit to Moscow.
The fourth man, Anthony Blunt, had his cover blown in 1964 but in return for not being publicly exposed, he co-operated with his interrogators.
He was even able to continue as Surveyor of the Queen's Pictures - but rumour has it the late Queen Mother would have nothing to do with him.
Mrs Thatcher exposed the deal on coming to power in 1979. Blunt was stripped of his knighthood and disgraced. He was booed at a cinema in Notting Hill and his boyfriend was so distraught he tried to kill himself.
It was at this time that Blunt put his thoughts down on paper - and his memoirs were released yesterday.
The 30,000-word manuscript was lodged in the British Library in 1984 - shortly after Blunt's death - on condition that it should remain sealed for 25 years.
In it, he tells how he was lured into the spy ring by the flamboyantly homosexual Guy Burgess, whom he met at Cambridge in 1931. Blunt was also homosexual but denied any relationship with Burgess.
His memoirs reveal he didn't initially take to the younger man but he was soon won over, and became caught up in Burgess's enthusiasm for left-wing politics, which had gained an "almost religious quality" among students.
In 1935 or 1936, Burgess was recruited by Stalin's Comintern with orders to "go underground". And he asked his friend to join him.
"I was faced with the most important decision of my life," Blunt wrote.
"The atmosphere in Cambridge was so intense, the enthusiasm for any antifascist activity so great, that I made the biggest mistake of my life." The manuscript says nothing of his spying for the NKVD - forerunner of the KGB - during the Second World War when he was working for MI5.
He strongly denied lurid tales of his time sharing a house with Burgess in London's Bentinck Street, and dismisses reports that it was an "alternation of sexual orgies and conspiratorial conversations designed to hinder the war effort". We should not excuse Blunt or any of his fellow travellers.
They were traitors, full stop. But attitudes to communism were different. We tend now to view the Bolshevik Revolution as a terrible mistake. It was the moment the gangsters - the people who murdered poor old Tsar Nicholas II and his glamorous young family - took over and held ruthlessly onto power until the arrival of Mikhail Gorbachev 70 years later.
But for many, the Revolution meant the overthrow of the old corrupt order and an opportunity for ordinary people to have better lives.
And by 1941, with the Americans hesitating about entering the war and the UK on its beam ends, the only country who looked in with a chance of defeating Hitler was Soviet Russia.
All the Cambridge spies caused damage to their country.
Maclean as a diplomat in wartime Washington was privy to private messages between top Americans and Winston Churchill.
The information may well have helped Stalin play hardball at Yalta.
Blunt, or "Johnson" as his Russian handlers codenamed him, became an officer in the Security Service (MI5) at the beginning of the war.
He was on the distribution list of the most secret British Intelligence ULTRA (the codebreaking portrayed in the book and film Enigma).
A key question is how useful was their treachery to the Soviets? The answer is mixed and complicated. Yes, Maclean's information on Anglo-American plans and intentions was useful to Stalin.
But given the power and geograph-icaposition of the Red Army at the end of the war the western allies did not have many cards to play.
Poland could not have been rescued from the Iron Curtain, however hard we tried.
Philby's contribution was more poisonous. He betrayed the names of as many British agents as he could, including lists of all those who had spied for us in Nazi-occupied eastern Europe.
As communist regimes took over in the late 1940s most of these brave men and women who had fought were tortured and shot by the KGB and their local henchmen.
Ironically, Soviet intelligence never fully trusted the Cambridge ring and could never quite believe their luck.
That Philby, a young undergraduate recruited on the off-chance at Cambridge in the 1930s, should join MI6 and then after the war become Head of the Counter-Soviet Section seemed to them too good to be true.
But they never fully exploited their intelligence windfall.
As for the Cambridge spies themselves, they all died unhappy and broken men.
Read Anthony Blunt's anguish and despair at his public disgrace.
In the end he understood - doing the dirty on your country can never be justified and it never pays.
Guy Burgess
Codename: Hicks Born in 1911, he influenced Maclean and Blunt to betray their country.

Plot
Two low-level government employees, Emmitt Fitz-Hume (played by Chevy Chase) and Austin Milbarge (Dan Aykroyd), are chosen for a top-secret CIA mission. They are unsuitable as CIA agents but are deliberately chosen for this reason, as their mission is a decoy one and they are expendable. After being fast-tracked through training they are parachuted into Pakistan where all manner of adventures await them.

By the way, good luck on the test tomorrow.
What test?
Foreign Service Board exams. Good luck.
Foreign Service Boards, tomorrow? I can't take that test tomorrow. I haven't studied. I'm not prepared.
You were bumped up on the list. You're scheduled for tomorrow morning. I'm sure I told you.
This is dated two weeks ago. You planned this. You want me to fail that test so you can keep me... down here in the center of the earth doing your work for you.
Watch your mouth, mister. This department's laying off civilians left and right. Where you going?
Home. To study.
Ha. One night studying for a grade-19 FSB exam? Good luck.
Listen, captain. I'm going to pass that exam, and I'm going to get out of this hole... and do some really important work for national security.
Yeah, sure.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The following events occurred in May 1940:
May 8, 1940
The Actions in Nordland began.
The Norway Debate continued in Parliament. David Lloyd George said that since Chamberlain had asked the nation for sacrifice, "I say solemnly that the Prime Minister should give an example of sacrifice, because there is nothing which can contribute more to victory in this war than that he should sacrifice the seals of office." Chamberlain survived a motion of no confidence by a vote of 281 to 200, but the number of absentions from within his own Conservative Party caused the level of support for his government to appear very weak.

20 – The Dance of the Vampires
Red Storm Rising
USS NIMITZ
Toland had been a busy fellow for the past twelve hours. The data on Iceland came in slowly, one confusing piece at a time, and even now he didn't have enough to call a clear picture. The group's orders had been changed, though only after too many hours of indecision. The mission to reinforce Iceland was a washout. For the past ten hours the battle group had been heading due east toward friendly air cover from England and France. Someone had decided that if the Marines could not go to Iceland, then they might find useful employment in Germany. Bob had expected them to be diverted to Norway, where a Marine Amphibious Brigade was already in place, but getting them there could prove difficult. A furious air battle had been raging over northern Norway for almost twenty hours, with losses heavy on both sides. The Norwegians had started the war with scarcely a hundred modem fighters. They were screaming for help, but there was no help for anyone as yet.
"They're not just chewing the Norwegians up," Toland observed. "They're driving them south. Most of the attacks are on the northern bases, and they're not giving them any breather at all."
Chip nodded. "That figures. Gives their Backfires a straighter shot at us. Briefing time."
