Mandatory Unit 14: Fill & Download for Free

It didn’t.The ten day war was fought between Slovene territorial defence (militia belonging to SR Slovenia) and JNA units, random conscripts from all over Yugoslavia, called up for their mandatory one year service in the army.Ten day war, tanks guard a border crossingA peculiarity of the JNA was that each garrison was supposed to be ethnically representative of the state as a whole. Slovenes were 8% of population, Serbs were 36% of population, so each unit of, day, 1000 men was supposed to have 80 Slovenes and 360 Serbs, no matter where in the country the unit served. This hindered performance, because there were very few units that could be relied upon.There were a few upsides like ethnic mixing and the like. The downside was the JNA had a mobilization schedule of about 14 days. By way of comparison, most conscript armies could be fully mobilized within 48 hours. The JNA itself was a SJW project par excellence that failed rather miserably.Interestingly in the officer corps, there were differences that mattered. Officers were mainly Serbs and that allowed for the war to last as long as it did. Military pilots were up to 90% Slovene though and that … hindered air operations somewhat.

FIVE of the Navy’s best Admirals retired at age 80+…Rear Admiral Grace Hopper finally retired from the Navy just before her 80th birthday, in 1986. She tried to retire in 1966, at the age of 60, and again in 1971 at the age of 65; but the Navy recalled her to active duty each time.From Wikipedia:Commodore Hopper, 1984“In accordance with Navy attrition regulations, Hopper retired from the Naval Reserve with the rank of commander at age 60 at the end of 1966. [25]She was recalled to active duty in August 1967 for a six-month period that turned into an indefinite assignment. She again retired in 1971 but was again asked to return to active duty in 1972. She was promoted to captain in 1973 by Admiral Elmo R. Zumwalt, Jr. [26]After Republican Representative Philip Crane saw her on a March 1983 segment of 60 Minutes, he championed H.J.Res. 341, a joint resolution originating in the House of Representatives, which led to her promotion on 15 December 1983 to commodore by special Presidential appointment by President Ronald Reagan. [26] [27] [28] [29]She remained on active duty for several years beyond mandatory retirement by special approval of Congress. [30]Effective November 8, 1985, the rank of commodore was renamed rear admiral (lower half) and Hopper became one of the Navy's few female admirals.Following a career that spanned more than 42 years, Admiral Hopper took retirement from the Navy on August 14, 1986. [31]At a celebration held in Boston on the USS Constitution to commemorate her retirement, Hopper was awarded the Defense Distinguished Service Medal, the highest non-combat decoration awarded by the Department of Defense. [32]At the time of her retirement, she was the oldest active-duty commissioned officer in the United States Navy (79 years, eight months and five days), and had her retirement ceremony aboard the oldest commissioned ship in the United States Navy (188 years, nine months and 23 days). [33]Admirals William D. Leahy, Chester W. Nimitz, Hyman G. Rickover and Charles Stewart were the only other officers in the Navy's history to serve on active duty at a higher age. Leahy and Nimitz served on active duty for life due to their promotions to the rank of fleet admiral.”Leahy died at the age of 84, and Nimitz at age 80. Rickover was forced into retirement at age 82, and Stewart retired at age 83 (in 1861, when life expectancy was about half that!)
