Abstract
This paper is an analysis of Operation Market which was the plan for the First Allied Airborne Army to capture and hold the crossings over the canals and rivers from Eindhoven to Arnhem inclusive, laying what was referred to as ?a carpet of airborne troops? along the 2nd Army?s main axis of advance. It details the problems that the Operation faced, why they occured, and how these failures led to the ultimate failure of the operation.
From the paper:
"However, if blame must be assigned, and in historical analysis, it usually must, then ?responsibility for Market Garden?s failure can be given to planners at strategic and operational levels who seemed hell-bent on carrying out the operation?. They accepted extra risks without modification of the plan and forced the British First Airborne Division to accept too many of the risks. Despite having the hardest task, they were assigned lowest priority in the transport allocations."

Abstract
This paper is about a spy operation that the Soviets ran during the mid-1920s. It explains that, to date, it is still one of the most successful counter-intelligence operations ever undertaken by any intelligence agency. It explains how Lenin had most of the world fooled shortly after his Bolshevik revolution. It was the persistence of a few Polish officers that brought the whole operation down.
From the Paper
"Lenin turned to Feliks Dzerzhinsky (the creator and chief of the Cheka) to eliminate all internal and external threats and factions. Dzerzhinsky devised a plan named Tres. It was an operation that would infiltrate an anti-Bolshevik, and highly secretive organization; the "Monarchist Union of Central Russia" (MOTsR). The "leader" of the MOTsR organization was Alexander Yakushev. He was a Czarist bureaucrat of the Exploitation Department of Waterways Administration (under the Bolsheviks it was known as the Soviet Waterways Department), who subsequent to the Russian Revolution, was attached with the Narkomat of External Trade."

"Operation Cornflakes", 2005.
This paper discusses "Operation Cornflakes" one of the worst and yet humorous covert operations ever undertaken by the United States Office of Strategic Services (OSS) in hopes of undermining Hitler during WWII.

Abstract
This paper explains that, in 1944, the OSS organized an elaborate plan based on the British outline, calling for a massive infiltration of Allied propaganda into the German postal system as a means of undermining German home front morale by degrading confidence in Adolph Hitler and creating a sense of defeatism inside Germany. The author points out that almost every single letter ever produced by the OSS was destroyed within days of their arrival in Germany. The paper relates that the real values of the operation were (1), after the fall of the Nazis to the Allied powers, a select few Nazi party members who had received the OSS letters used them to claim that they had really been anti-Nazi the whole time and (2), to this day, the forged OSS stamp is a rare collectible, which is widely sought after.
From the Paper
""Operation Cornflakes" was originally a propaganda operation against Nazi Germany that the British hoped would help them win World War II. The original plan involved the British using international mail to Germany from countries that remained neutral during the war. MI6 hired expert forgers to generate a series of cleverly faked stamps that were then applied to envelopes addressed to Germans from cover companies in those neutral countries. Everything appeared to be in working order at a quick glance. However, the stamps were actually parodies of real issues going on within Germany during the war. An example of this propaganda includes a portrait of Heinrich Himmler in place of Adolph Hitler on the stamp. This was supposed to show dissention among the ranks inside Nazi Germany."

Operation Barbarossa, 2005.
This paper discusses Operation Barbarossa, Hitler's code name for Germany's attack on Russia during World War II.
1,410 words (approx. 5.6 pages), 3 sources, MLA, $ 46.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that Operation Barbarossa was largely the brainchild of Hitler himself; his general staff advised against fighting a war on two fronts, but Hitler, considering himself a political and military genius, did not fear fighting Britain, possibly America, and now Russia, all at the same time. The author points out that, to make it more palatable to both the German population and the rest of the world, Nazi leaders painted Operation Barbarossa as a defensive attack by stating that the Red Army was preparing to attack Germany, thus Germany needed to strike first before the Russians were fully prepared. The paper concludes that the operation failed miserably because of Germany's logistical problems, an underestimation of the Soviet Army's abilities, and the onset of the harsh Russian winter.
From the Paper
"Before initiating Operation Barbarossa, Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union were diplomatically on friendly terms, having signed the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact a short time before the German and Soviet invasion of Poland. While appearing on the surface to be a simple treaty of non-aggression, the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact also contained secret protocols for the dividing up of the border-states between the two nations. The pact surprised the world because of Germany and the USSR's opposing ideologies and mutual hostility. But Hitler had long wanted to conquer western Russia to fulfill his goal of eastern expansion. So the pact was simply one of short-term convenience, which the Nazis thought little of breaking."

From the Paper
"Well, Honeycutt got what he wanted. The C Company found fourteen enemy bodies lying around. So again, the morning started with the Americans striking the enemy with bombing, air strikes, and ceaseless artillery. Honeycutt however made the C Company cease fire. Honeycutt told Sanders to stop finding an avenue to the top of the mountain, realizing that D Company's three brutal days in the ravine was enough. Instead he planned his fight on the mountain with A Company in the lead. The 1/506th was supporting the A Company. But the 1/506th was in trouble. The enemy of course prevented the 1/506th from getting to the mountain to help get the attack started. Because he didn't have 1506th help he called off the attack. He was frustrated. This might even begin the ending of the battle."

Operation Foxley, 2002.
An analysis of Operation Foxley, the British plan to assassinate Hitler.
2,100 words (approx. 8.4 pages), 5 sources, APA, $ 65.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper begins by looking at various unsuccessful assassination attempts on Hitler?s life. It then turns its focus to the British Special Operations Executive (SOE) plan, named ?Operation Foxley?. The paper describes the secret plan, discusses various aspects of it and analyzes why it was not put into practice. The implications for the course of WWII and world history if the plan had succeeded have also been explored.
From the Paper
"During the course of World War II, its main instigator?Adolf Hitler survived numerous assassination attempts. There was of course no single reason for this. On occasions, the plans simply failed because they were not prepared or executed with the required precision or professionalism. Hitler was extremely well-protected and his intelligence agencies led by the Gestapo at times got wind of them before they could be put into practice. Sometimes the bombs simply failed to go off. On other occasions, Hitler survived because of his sudden and unexpected cancellation of schedules, upsetting the plans of the assassins. Some called it his uncanny sixth sense. Whatever the reasons for his miraculous escapes, they helped to build Hitler into a mythical being. Many Germans started to believe that nothing could kill the Fuhrer. Hitler himself declared after he survived a major assassination attempt on July 20, 1944 (when a bomb placed in a brief-case exploded just a few feet from him in his briefing hut) that he was invulnerable and immortal."

Regional Co-operation, 2005.
A discussion on the possibility for regional co-operation between Canada's provinces.

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper discusses the likelihood of the provinces in Canada co-operating with each other to get more out of the Federal government. The paper looks at the physical and political geography of the country and then argues that co-operation between the provinces will be unlikely, based on the fact that Canada is highly regionalized.
From the Paper
"Regional Co-operation in Canada? Canada is a country in which regionalism is king. Each region is so different that regionalism has become the central characteristic of Canadian political geography. In The Challenge of Regionalism Greg Anderson describes the Canadian regions as, Atlantic Canada, including Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland, and Labrador; Quebec; Ontario; the Prairie West, including Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta; British Columbia; and the Far North. Such divisions are arbitrary and do not Reflect the many nuances of each of these regions(Anderson 2003: 26)."

Operation Desert Storm, 2003.
A review of the Gulf War otherwise known as Operation Desert Storm, as a catalyst for Islamist opposition to the Saudi Arabian royal family.

Abstract
This paper takes a look at the role of Saudi Arabia in Operation Desert Storm. According to the paper, the Saudi royal family was harshly criticized as being a traitor to Muslim countries and Muslim values, for the role it played in the Gulf War. The paper goes on to discuss how, due to the fact that Saudi Arabia is home to some of Islam's most sacred shrines, the royal family's acceptance of US military troops on Saudi territory was not regarded well by Islamic communities.
From the Paper
"Agreeing to become the ally of US and the coalition forces during the Gulf War was seen by extremist movements and Islamic opponents of the Saudi royal family as an act of betrayal of Islamic values. Perhaps if the terrorist cells that later terrorized the world were not belonging to Saudi Arabia and were not operating from its territory, Saudi involvement in the war wouldn't have been seen as an act of betrayal. But since this was not the case, the royal family was regarded as fraternizing with the enemy of these terrorist groups and so, the position against the royal family was strong and firm."

From the Paper
"Without question, there were significant logistical issues for the U.S. Armed Forces surrounding Operation Iraqi Freedom, specifically with the ability of supply to meet the demand of a very mobile military force. The purpose of this essay is to highlight some of the more pressing logistical issues that have emerged during the course of OIF. In addition to listing and explaining the number of logistical challenges that were faced and surmounted to varying degrees of success, I also intend to evaluate the logistical response of the military during OIF. My conclusion will include some remarks regarding whether or not the demonstrated logistical inadequacies during OIF were systematic or simply circumstantial. Combat situations will always place an more significant strain upon military logistical support services, especially when the conflict is geared towards the offensive as it was during OIF (Thurmond, 2004). Class handout 12-1 (n.d.) identifies a number of primary logistical..."

Abstract
This paper explains why France did not join in the war against Iraq. It discusses the economic reason for this decision, as well as France's national objectives. The writer takes the opinion that the war was wrong in Iraq and explains why the U.S. really went to war.
From the Paper
"When Operation Iraqi Freedom began, the United States seemed to be at war with not just Iraq, but France too. But this was not a war fought on battlefields, instead a war over words and ideals. France believed that the U.S. had no part in stepping in against Iraq and their leader, Saddam Hussein. Realistically, the United States had no choice but to disregard the French people. In going to war in Iraq, the United States stepped up to a challenge that the French were unwilling to, but were the French right in going against actions in Iraq?"
