i went there before they began to tighten up security at leavenworth. but i got copies of the battle plans and it showed where my uncle was and where he got killed. i went there 10 years ago and picked up soil from the spot approximately where he was. i brought it back and gave it to his son. prof. gerges: what a neat tribute that you were able to do that. operation norton wind, the germans are going to try to restart the offensive. not in the actual are dan's but -- actual are dan --- slightly south in the seventh army area. the operation lasts only for two weeks. it does push the seventh army back. they also do what is known as the hangover raid. they mass about 1000 aircraft on early in the morning on the first of january when all the airmen should be hung over in their barracks, and they were going to be attacking the army air force on the ground. they destroy about 450 american aircraft on the airfield. it will lose 270 aircraft in aircraft fire. however, they cannot make up those 270. the 460 pilots were not in them because they were on the ground

coming in from leavenworth, kansas is major sturgis. he will have the u.s. regulars, which includes infantry, artillery, and cavalry. the first and second kansas will join them and they will begin their movement into this eight of missouri. the goal here is to knock out the state guard, as well as the state government and drives him out of the state. remember, too, nathaniel lyon, he is a connecticut native. he has military experience. he is definitely going to be using the tactics he learned at the academy. so the plan works. lyon has split his forces into two. he is able to easily get to jefferson city. governor jackson will make a request to the rest of the state for 50,000 miseries it guard troops to rendezvous at boonville. boonville is upriver from jefferson city and that's exactly where they go. so governors and governor jackson will move up to boonville where he will hopefully, in his eyes, meet up with the rest of the guard. lyon is able to do that. lyon's troops will engage with a small contingent of state guard, easily driving them from the field.

the leavenworth zone was rm at that time. there's a slightly looser interpretation of how much can you where. >> actually, i don't love the term illegal dwelling unit. illegal has such a negative sound to it. i like unpermitted. that's the crux of it. it's not that it was illegal, it never was permitted to be there. so in 2014, they got a permit that removed it. they could have chosen to try to legalize it. now in that configuration, it would have required an exposure variance and a parking variance and an open space variance to get that legalized. there was a path forward to legalize that unit, it was just that it had never been a dwelling unit -- it had never gotten the permit to be a dwelling unit. but this one is rm-1, so they could legally have a third unit. >> and at that time, there were no penalties for an illegal unit. you could basically just get rid of it, and that was it. >> correct. until the u.d.u. removal ordinance took effect in april 2016, that was commonplace. >> and that was not as pressing at it is today.

there is talk that private vehicles could be banned next on valencia street in the mission and leavenworth tenderloin. >>> there is new word from the potential apartment. >>> plus the cost of seeing the super bowl in person. larry is live in miami with more. s designed to improve security, but critics say it would make it harder for others to acces >>> hong kong and even taiwan. meantime, apple is temporarily closing two more stores in china. it had already closed three. worldwide, more than 7,700 people are infected with coronavirus. more than 170 have died from the virus. >>> meanwhile, google search data shows some people are confused by the coronavirus. >> in fact they are. >> people online are looking for information on beer virus and it's corona beer virus. corona beer has nothing to do with this virus. in the east bay, executives with the board of oakland seem to be feeling optimistic about 2020. the director gave the state of the port address today at jack london square. next to the square is one big opportunity for the port this year. he says he sees the possibilities. >> adding m

leavenworth, kansas, is major samuel sturgess, sturgess will have the u.s. regulars which include infant infantry, calvary and artillery and he will also have the kansas volunteers, many of the kansas units, the first and second cast will join him and they will begin their movement into the state of missouri. the goal here that lyon has in mind is to basically create a pin serve movement and to knock out the state guard and as well as the confederate government from jefferson city and drive them out of the state. remember, too, nathaniel lyon he is a connecticut native, he is west point class of 1841. he's got military experience so he's definitely going to be using much of these tactics that he had learned at the academy. so beginning june the 13th the plan works. lyon has split his forces into two, he is easily able to get to jefferson city, the government actually flees. governor jackson will actually make a request out to the rest of the state for 50,000 missouri state guard troops to rendezvous at booneville. booneville sits upriver from jefferson city

local connection with fort leavenworth. he lived part of his life up in easton. hope builds part of the canadian-american highway and then will command a special engineer brigade during the normandy landing that is clearing the normandy beaches. he will take over when they have the ninth armored division. he will take over combat command be. he is a relatively senior officer. ands senior to clark robert. i feel look at the relationship in thisl the forces area. that is not how it will take place. we willcus tonight focus in on that square. on the area around the actual fighting that will happen. the german offensive starts at 5:30 in the morning on the 16th of december. through up the area. they are in water towers, church steeples. they will notice all these flashes of light. they don't really know it's going on. they see all these lights and they start calling their headquarter saying something is going on. 90 seconds later they realize it was german artillery rockets. 1800 different pieces of artillery firing that will start impacting all across the friend. in

his grandfather was buffalo bill cody, a leavenworth native. >> they played a big part in the united states military since the 1980's. it has been a big part of my experience in the military. can you talk about the air power in this particular battle as the weather cleared? gerges: are you up for that question? ok, good. some of my students back there. when the russian high comes in, the weather drops down. clark walked out at 7:00 in the morning. it is a beautiful, beautiful blue sky, not a cloud in the sky. the first time it has been that way for the week. it has been cloudy. it has been overcast. it has been foggy. so on that day, they were trying to break. the airpower clears. that's when the american fighter-bombers are going to be able to start with the german forces. it will help them break contact. at the time when instead of pursuing, they are having a worry about what's coming around that next corner as additional air fights come in. it will play a huge role after a -- after the weather breaks in that time. yes, sir? >> it's my understanding that there was a second bulge cr

leavenworth, i want to make a note that that was one of those fake g mail accounts using my name. someone set up a fake account using my full name, taking advantage of things i talk about here. and they also half of the staff with it. so i want to make a note of that. it's illegal and i hope it stops. thank you. >> right now we are only taking comment on the matter of continuance. >> justin on behalf of project sponsor for 2255 judah. we are working with community aid. they have requested a continuance and we hope you can accommodate moving it to the 30th. thank you. >> any other public comment on the continuance calendar? public comment is closed. >> move to continue items 1a, 2, 3, 4 and 5 to the dates specified. >> second. >> thank you. on that motion to continue items as proposed, [roll call vote] that motion passes unanimously, 6-0. continue item 1b. >> that will place you under your consent calendar. the only matter listed here under it is considered to be routine and may be acted upon by single roll call vote of the commission. there will be no separate discussion of this i

. >> leavenworth federal prison. doing time doesn't come much harder than it does here.diamond was serving a life sentence for murdering air force captain marty, but his former lover michelle, seems to have dropped right out of sight. where was she? people weren't seeing her around fayetteville. the d.a. meanwhile was convinced she must have conspired with john diamond to kill her husband. she was the brains, he was the brawn, or in this case, though it was all circumstantial, to greg butler, it was persuasive. >> there is evidence, i don't think there is any question as to who was involved, diamond and her together. >> the evidence? the life insurance. the affair. the access to a murder weapon. those emails. the coverup. taken together, it was enough to convince a grand jury. and finally, in may of 2002, nearly 18 months since her husband was killed, michelle theer was indicted for first-degree murder and conspiracy. but arrested? no. why? >> there's some speculation that she was tipped off, that she had been indicted, because she seemed to have really sort of fall off

and dave of course with jim mattis and others of fort leavenworth worked on that. it was really ray at the mnfi commander, the corps commander, who turned us into operational art on the battlefield with security locations and all that. that ought to be noted. now, it's not like a lot of people were not focusing on counterinsurgency or coin, as we liked to call it, because everything at the pentagon has to have an acronym. but not everybody really spoke coin fluently. as elliot cohen likes to say, there are a lot of people in the government who spoke pigeon coin. and i think for a lot of folks, the emphasis of the counterinsurgency doctrine was not so much on the population security part as it was on the all of government part. and we had lots of discussions inside the pentagon as we went through this particularly in our defense senior leader meetings about the whole of government and where was the rest of government in all this. steve got pulled into some of those on occasion by secretary rumsfeld. i'll be interested in doug's view of this because he sat through a

host: we will go to chris in leavenworth, kansas. republican line, good morning.aller: good morning. thanks for c-span. theuld like to talk about points, the facts that were brought up yesterday by the president's legal team. were two that i thought locked it in for the republican senators. i don't think you will get any possiblyn defections, for witnesses. that theoints were house never took an impeachment vote. they waited to vote at the end. and they were not under impeachment authorities. the subpoenas they are using as grounds for obstruction of congress are invalid. the second point, upfront, jay sekulow made sense. they were never part of the funding that was delayed and authorized later. therefore, in never put the security of ukraine at risk. the money that was eventually authorized is funding for next year. wasto use this as if it some critical fact of the ukrainian security was invalid of the democrats. nessvalen this -- valid is a different discussion. also, the way they went through, point by point, there were references to everything that they brough
