Ordnance Mitchell B-25, the Ultimate Strafer | Pacific Paratrooper – WWII

Mitchell bombers participated in campaigns in the Solomon Islands, Aleutian Islands, Papua New Guinea, and New Britain, among others. Owing to the tropical nature of the environment, mid-level bombing was less efficient, and thus the B-25s were adapted to serve as low-altitude attack bombers.

During the Southwest Pacific campaigns, the B-25 enormously contributed to Allied victories as the 5th Air Force devastated the Japanese forces through skip-bombing attacks on ships and Japanese airfields.

In the China-Burma-India theater of the war, B-25s were widely used for interdiction, close air support, and battlefield isolation.

The B-25’s extraordinary capabilities as a bomber were first brought to the limelight following their performance in the Tokyo Raid of 18 April 1942, in which the hitherto impregnable home islands of Japan were attacked.

What really is maths ?

Saania's diary - reflections, learnings, sparkles

At school, the maths we learn and see can seem like a set of only rules and a whole bunch of numbers that we must learn. However, maths isn’t all about that, although it may seem as such. Maths is a subject that is really enjoyable to me, so here is what I think it really is. Maths is considered a boring topic for many people. ” When am I ever going to use math? “, ” How will it even help me in life? “, “This is so boring” – these are things that have echoed through the halls of maths classrooms every single day! Many students want to know where math takes place in every day life. The thing is, maths is not just a sequence of numbers and computations that need to be carried out until your patience or stamina runs out! You may not be aiming…

Poetay

Weekend Stories by Trishikh

At four every morning the severely annoying sound of a gradually intensifying, prolonged and near-deafening yawn would obliterate the tranquillity of a sleepy northern neighbourhood slowly waking up to face another day in the cosmopolitan city of Kolkata in the eastern armpit of the Indian subcontinent.

A solid ten minute of thunderous“Hh uuu aaaa wwwww hhhhhh, maaa maa ma,”by seventy-seven-year-old Paandurongo Trilokchand Ghosh, alias‘Poe-tay’would scare off dawning birds and bats perched on electric poles and tree branches.

Some covered their ears with the palms of their hands. Others tried to muffle the sound with pillows cuddled over their heads.
