These lines were intended to limit any Allied breakthrough and to allow the German army to withdraw if attacked.

These included General Carl-Heinrich von Stülpnagel, the German military commander in France, who would take control in Paris when Hitler was killed and, it was hoped, negotiate an immediate armistice with the invading Allied armies.

These RAF commandos accompanied the Allied invasion forces in all theatres ; their main role was to allow the forward operation of friendly fighters by servicing and arming them from captured air fields.

These formed the Confederated Allied Tribe which was led by Baptiste Peoria who was of both French and Indian ethnicity.

These bombardment groups went on to participate in decisive raids over Germany as part of Eighth Air Force opening the door for Allied daylight precision bombing.

These radio-controlled missiles were used successfully until the Allied navies developed missile countermeasures-principally radio jamming.

These allegations were rejected by the Vatican ’ s Cardinal Secretary of State Pietro Gasparri, who wrote on 4 March 1916 that the Holy See is completely impartial and does not favor the Allied side.

These operations were just a start of a broad Allied offensive across the Western Front.

These included the plaster Cenotaph, designed by the noted British architect Sir Edwin Lutyens, for the Allied Victory parade in London, and it was so successful that it was reproduced in stone, and still stands.

These dynamic relationships, between what can be observed on the ground, as opposed to what can be observed by compiling many local observations remain fundamental in any kind of anthropology, whether cultural, biological, linguistic or archaeological.

These are naturally in a ground state but can be excited

These states are labeled by a set of quantum numbers summarized in the term symbol and usually associated with particular electron configurations, i. e., by occupation schemes of atomic orbitals ( e. g., 1s < sup > 2 </ sup > 2s < sup > 2 </ sup > 2p < sup > 6 </ sup > for the ground state of neon -- term symbol: < sup > 1 </ sup > S < sub > 0 </ sub >).

These contain about 80 % ground granulated blast furnace slag, 15 % gypsum or anhydrite and a little Portland clinker or lime as an activator.

These processes, combined with erosion and transport by the water network beneath the glacier, leave moraines, drumlins, ground moraine ( till ), kames, kame deltas, moulins, and glacial erratics in their wake, typically at the terminus or during glacier retreat.

These swarms can be recorded by seismometers and tiltmeters ( a device that measures ground slope ) and used as sensors to predict imminent or upcoming eruptions.

These walls cantilever loads ( like a beam ) to a large, structural footing ; converting horizontal pressures from behind the wall to vertical pressures on the ground below.

* Reversals or Sweeps: These occur when a grappler who was underneath his or her opponent on the ground is able to maneuver so that he or she gains a top position over his opponent.

These hardcore groups were also incorporated into local neighborhood outposts in a bid to facilitate intelligence gathering, and to strengthen ground level support among the masses.

These ideas can be countered by the fact that during the winter, the time of year in which UV light is most scarce at northern latitudes, the ground is often covered with white snow.

These were held in Meppen, at the largest proving ground in the world ; privately owned by Krupp.

These gain media could release stimulated emissions between an excited state and a lower excited state, not the ground state, facilitating the maintenance of a population inversion.

These players are seated on the ground, leaning on pillows that are placed next to a backgammon board.

" These lakes were ground out of the land by glaciers during the Pleistocene ice age, when ice covered northeastern Europe.

These ground stone axes are the earliest to come from a stratified context in the South Asia.

These problems can be overcome by incorporating a ground map of the radar's surroundings and eliminating all echoes which appear to originate below ground or above a certain height.

These usually consist of a long two-story building, in which the boats are stored on racks ( horizontal, usually metal, bars ) on the ground floor with a large door at one end which most probably leads out to a pontoon on the river or lakeside.

These can travel along the ground and walls.

These tests included a maiden " flight " on February 18, 1977, atop a Boeing 747 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft ( SCA ) to measure structural loads and ground handling and braking characteristics of the mated system.

These would fly " down hill " to attack the missiles, so they could be considerably smaller and cheaper than an interceptor that needed to launch up from the ground.

These contacts usually consist first of the bump or pass so that the ball's trajectory is aimed towards the player designated as the setter ; second of the set ( usually an over-hand pass using wrists to push finger-tips at the ball ) by the setter so that the ball's trajectory is aimed towards a spot where one of the players designated as an attacker can hit it, and third by the attacker who spikes ( jumping, raising one arm above the head and hitting the ball so it will move quickly down to the ground on the opponent's court ) to return the ball over the net.

These experienced artillerymen could offer some seemingly convincing reasons why the M101 was still the superior weapon: its waist-high breech made it easier to load ; it had higher ground clearance when in tow ; but most important, it was considerably less expensive than the M102.

These cables are known as optical ground wire ( OPGW ).
