inh other words wherever the continental french navy goes which is a; none for any operation it will be rochambeau or washington who will decide where the campaign of 17811 will end because we had to go to where the navy is failing. we can stay outside of new york city if the navy goes outside of yorktown and nothing is going to happen and washington acknowledges that in the summer of 1781 and rochambeau looking at the numbers and washington also when you have 14 or 15,000 british forces in new york city and rochambeau was about 6000 another eight or 10,000. there are more combat ready soldiers in newrs york city than our side. strategy planning is all good and well and this is because of washington and where his genius comes in realizess the reality. i would love to go through new york city in 1770s but it's not going to happen. where to go where rochambeau would like to go because there's nobody in the continental army other than sullivan who knows how to do this. they aren't allowing trained engineers in there so the realityuh is simply against what washington may want to do but ha

what you do, whether you attack new york city or you go down to yorktown, eventually you need the french navy. you cannot lay siege to new york city as long as the harbors opened because then british forces in, they're going to be supplied, you know, the chickens come home over that swing. yes. the same is of course, true for yorktown as well. and then washington has realize that there is no continental navy in other words, wherever the continental the french navy goes, which which is a unique one, none for any successful siege, siege operation. it will neither will not be russian shamble or washington. it will be take rush who will decide whether the campaign of 1781 will end because have to go to where the is sailing. we can outside new york city and the navy goes to yorktown. well, nothing's going to happen. so. yes. and washington basically acknowledges to that his hand is being forced in the summer of 1781 and rochambeau to looking at the numbers in washington, also comes to the realization when you have one, two, 14, 15,000 british forces in new york city, there's roger campbell with ab

french. the royal navy will come help. delancy and his supporters like james johnson, jake walton and others are really seen as popular political figures, sort of out of doors at this time. they're not holding elected office. so for the time between, 65 and 68 people look toward the differences and in particular, james to lancey for leadership. and when it comes to 1768, they mount a concerted campaign to, secure people's votes. they not only announce their candidacies, they publish essays in the press, they release broadsides that can be, you know, stuck on tavern windows or coffee windows so people walking by can see essays that are published in. these will be left and tyrants tables and coffee house tables so people can read. they commissioned pamphlets which are longer so people can study them a little bit more and. they what manhunt with election materials not only this they start hold events they hold events in taverns. so on a monday in the lead up to the election, on a monday, tuesday, wednesday, thursday, there's

there's a famous map that he did earlier in his career when he was in the navy during during the french, just after the french and indian war, where he mapped the entire coastline of newfoundland and there's a documentary, a british documentary, where they superimpose his map on top of a satellite map of newfoundland. and it is chillingly accurate how he did this with just trigonometry. and, you know, dead reckoning and just a just observation with the crude tools that he had to work with in his day is is kind of it's kind of extraordinary. and so in response to your question, i think i will focus on the core of discovery's journey across the continental united states. so, you know, lewis and clark are tasked by the us government with trying to figure out if a northwest passage exists, some kind of water route across the ocean and when they reached present day north dakota, that's when they ran into sacajawea, who had been captured from idaho and was living in the nice remote villages then. so she and her husband, two sons, charbonneau, joined the corps of discovery, and they're all goi

i had the pleasure to go out with the french navy, and to see these cross read and where 1 m shows beforeve to completely artificially build islands. it is quite scary the way the chinese make political and military will to use facilities on all these. >> host: especially after that came after legal proceedings. the philippines had a legal address of a dispute and this is how china responds. >> guest: something different to the us government. next to president obama and we don't militarize the south china sea and went back and it did it. >> host: that is the concern. i have chinese students, i love, all these things are great, brilliant, hard-working, they want a future where they can make money, provide for the family and travel freely but increasingly worried about travel and speaking out. what is your message to the chinese about how we can work through these differences including disputes over taiwan and do this peacefully? >> guest: a good question. it's often the chinese come in an instrument allies one. $4 billion, i'm very disappointed with what you said as a diplomat and never ha

the french and italians were building. the royal navy said, well build a small ship that can take out torpedo boats and we'll call them torpedo boat destroyers. and then that was simply shortened to destroy piers. so despite the fearsome name, the nickname tin cans is often more appropriate thin skinned biggest gun that carries a five inch incher depth. charges on the stern torpedoes on the bow. but they played a critical at normandy in the lengthy and complex operational plan that was written for d-day. the task assigned to the tin cans was to screen the invasion and fleet from possible interfere once by german u-boats. in fact, the u-boat threat, as we've heard, has pretty much been neutralized by the of 1944. indeed, the only axis naval challenge at all that they could post the invasion came from a handful of what the germans called chanel booting. i love speaking german. it makes me feel fierce. chanel vuitton fast boats literal translate. kind of equivalent to what we called p.t. boats patrol torpedo boats. small 80 foot carried tor

navy did respond as well as a french frigate.the uss philippines sent over romeos and picked up each one of the members brought them back to the ship and eventually that same day brought them to my ship, the eisenhower. i was on the bridge doing flight operations of the time, little busy and my security has came up and said they were prepared to process them. we are not used to bring a civilian mariners so all we had was a detainee. these are not detainees. i told the make them feel comfortable, if in some lunch. they just lost one of their own and they lost their ship and all their belongings. a couple hours went by and there was a lot of diplomatic turn going on at the time so we get the back to the philippines. i went down to our training classroom where we were keeping them and they wondered what the result was my sailors. i heard singing. it turns out one of my sailors spoke the language and thought about the crew coming on board and he rallied all the other speakers to come to make the pillow. even a catholic chapel was the

what he meant by police is the french come the british army would come help. the royal navyould come help. so delancey and his supporters are releasing is a popular political figures. they're not holding elected office. the time between 65 and 68 people look towards them. and in particular james. for leadership. when it comes a 1768 they mount a concerted campaign to secure people. not only announcer candidacy theyth published in the press, broadsides they can be stuck on tavern windows or coffeehouse windows people walking by canee see. the publishing newspapers. the commission pamphlets, people can study them a little bit more. the flood manhattan with the lecture materials. not only this, they start to hold it in. they hold events in taverns. inon the lead up to the election on a monday, tuesday, wednesday, thursday there is an event every nightsa. and benjamin stout tavern. there's a lot of beer, there's a lot of fighters, there's a lot of alcohol. and the delancey's paper at all. and you can imagine these events for the alcohol is falling, the wind is flowing, cider, pe

in fact, the entire israeli navy began with those boats that were built in cherbourg, and which the french allowed israel to take. therefore, it is quite natural that yes, michel aoun is playing a contractual game with israel, but israel, in my opinion, will not stop at local operation, will develop the success further. spain, then the sudetenland, and after that it ended clearly how, so yes, for me this is already a scenario of the third world war, there are interests, there is an army, there are weapons and they will shoot, between many fires, someone, apparently, is warming their hands, by the way, the question of those who may be interested in everything that is happening in the middle east, the question immediately arises whether this operation of israel was coordinated with america, here is what the official representative of the us state department said yesterday, matthew miller. does the united states have any criteria for success or red lines that you are talking about with israel, it sounds rather vague, i am trying to understand, it turns out that only those who are endowed with

the french navy that's right.the french navy this morning have been escorting somebody across to our 12 mile line who threatened to kill a british member of parliament after the £500 million we paid them. you would have thought they might just be able to do better than that. i've asked the home office, the police. is it true that he's arrived? have you taken him into custody? is he being questioned? i haven't even had the courtesy of an answer from the home office. i guess my real concern is that unless he. unless he has been taken away and put behind a locked door, he will simply abscond. but here's the worst part. because originally he comes from afghanistan, we will not send him back to afghanistan because we don't deem that to be a safe country. even though germany are now sending planes back to afghanistan, it could be if he has permanent leave to remain in sweden that they'll take him. i don't know, i'm struck that if he's here, he'll be here for a very long time and possibly cost us a huge amount of money.
