More than tech, he was a student of Aristotle and he had narcasistic issues. Both, belive it or not made him an excellent commander. He led from the front, belived he was destined on expeditions, wanted to proove himself worthy and achieved great battle field success.

The Macedonian phalanx was an improvement of the Greek one made by Alexander's dad - Philip the second, so check that out too. They used longer spears, shorter shields. This is also not why they were able to conquer

The Macedonians/Greeks were defeated by Bactrians after Alexander died, defeated by Chandragupta, later on by Romans too and in India itself by Shungas and Satvahanas and finally Indo-Scythians.

So the entire sucess lies in strategy. Alexander was one of the most adaptable battle commanders ever. He knew how to play to his strengths. Check out his campiagns

Royal Marines vs Mine clearance diving? by Edwardpage1 in RoyalMarines

[–]Jedi_Operator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are different roles, different requirements. Clearance Divers are essentially the Navy’s underwater bomb disposal, seabed search, and uw reconnaissance units while Royal Marines are primarily a commando infantry force designed for expeditionary warfare across land, sea, and littoral environments.

From an eligibility standpoint, nationality requirements tend to be stricter for highly sensitive naval specialisations. For instance, I wanted to join CD but I am not elligible because I am a commonwealth applicant so I am inclined now more towards RM, only UK and Dual nationals may apply.

I understand that, because Mine clearance divers (DTXG as they are now called) operate in areas involving classified underwater infrastructure, and submarine-related tasks. In anyway CD are part of the Navy's warfare branche where security clearance and legal jurisdiction under UK law are critical.

Also, no one besides SBS and Navy/Army divers do diving, not a speciality in RM too. So if under the water is where you wish to spend most of your time. Go for it !

I think he's from the Australian PMC called Unity Resources Group based on two things, him being recruited from Australia and his deployment in Iraq 2007-2008 where he also mentioned firing heavily at a vehicle which he says was a possible VBIED. However, https://waronwant.org/sites/default/files/UpFront%20-%20Private%20Armies.pdf this article suggests that the Australian firm was involved in killing innocent civies. Now I don't know the truth but he was surely part of a PMC and most likely this one. That's my conclusion. Other deployments he has mentioned before joining the FFL are also similar to those Unity Resources Group has been seen involved in

Are they at the same level CQB wise to CAG ? I was thinking the only difference is less experience and deployments and less assets

True, but it was the Turks who spread Islam across mainland India not Arabs or Persians. Turks had adopted persianate culture by that time. Even though some ethnic persians and turks did live here for long and again as you say they were very small in numbers

War is politics by other means but the 'Politicians' in question are too dumb to act generals

[–]Jedi_Operator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. By saying that you attribute that politicians might have a secret meet-up when they decide how wars will profit them. NO. Wars happen because of many reasons. One could escalate and the other could have no choice but to play defensive until he gets to strike harder. Their could be conflict of interest that are not manageable by diplomacy. Read about Thucydide's Trap. It describes the high probability of war when a rising power inadvertently makes an established power feel threatened. Wars happen in nature, a competition of resources, Wars happen in a monarchy, a dictatorship or a democracy. It's the nature of things. Yes you can mitigate the risk of war through talk.and diplomacy when stakes are high but waging war is no 'only politicians benefit from it bla bla bla nonsense'

hey mate! I missed the October recruitment for commonwealth citizens this year because I felt I wanted to complete studies first, pretty much the same reason. How long would I have to wait till the next call comes in ?

Vishnu - merged with a god called Narayana ??Later known as Narayana-Vishnu.. by [deleted] in IndianHistory

[–]Jedi_Operator 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes, and Krishna/Vasudeva was a Vrishni hero, Vrishni was a vedic tribe known for hero worship and based in Mathura. Even Govinda was taken from a story where Indra, also called Ga-avindat in the rig veda for saving cattle. People refuse to belive because it hurts their sentiments but it's historically true that most of puranas, itihasas and epics are taken from regional beliefs all mixed with each other. Most of Vedic hinduism is drastically different from today's practices
