Operation Zitadelle Thesis

328 Words2 Pages

Marc, Overall your paper is informative in nature and provides some strong information on the history of tanks in warfare. You did a great job pointing out that the Germans used new tactics during the blitzkrieg compared to the Allies. You should have developed this with more detail to describe the Germans tactics. Explain the way tanks were used to “punch” a hole in weaker defenses while avoiding stronger defensive positions. Thus, quickly overrunning an Allies position allowing the Germans tanks and forces access behind the Allis front line and encircling the stronger positions. Citing examples in the tactics would make your paper stronger in the future. The paper provides good support for your thesis in the use of tanks in warfare during battles in North Africa during World War II. The citing of Operation Zitadelle adds to the strength of your thesis. …show more content…

This would help with some of the arears that are wordy and help the papers flow. An example is in your thesis statement that states “While the tank started as a pipe dream and then became little more than a novelty, it eventually evolved into what it was meant to be and still continues to evolve in this modern day’s ever-changing battlefield as well as in the minds of people.” Reorganizing sentence structure would lead to a stronger paper. Maybe the thesis statement could read; The armoured tank first developed from an idea into a powerful weapon used in warfare, but do to advancing technologies it’s use has become limited in today’s ever changing battlefield. Proofing read and sentence structure would aid in the strength of your

    “Fire; pause; barrel change; fetch ammunition; lay the dead on the floor of the crater,” Otto Lais explains in his personal memoir.

    There are many changes that have taken place between my first rough draft and the final draft version of my paragraph. One major change is the quality of writing in the topic sentence. In the first rough draft, I included what the paragraph was going to be about, but I was missing the “how” and “so what” elements. This was fixed in the final copy, along with my conclusion sentence. The conclusion at first was cliche and uninformative, so that was changed to be more useful in the writing.

  • Operation Oluja Case Study

    734 Words  | 3 Pages

    Operation Oluja was undertaken after many years of unsuccessful efforts by Croatian political leadership and international peacekeeping forces to re-establish constitutional and legal order and security on the entire territory of the Republic of Croatia – as it was defined by the UN Resolution. Political and diplomatic means, agreements and settlements with representatives of local Serb population and the authorities in Belgrade, as well as several HV’s warning operations with limited objectives were to no avail. Political situation prior to Oluja was marked by the incapability of the UN forces to contribute to a political solution to the conflict in Croatia. Following the rebellion of the Serbian minority in Croatia and the aggression of the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA) as a response to the declaration of independence of the Republic of Croatia from Yugoslavia in 1991, by signing the truce in January 1992, conditions were created for the deployment of the UN peacekeeping troops along the demarcation line. Unfortunately, the engagement of the UN forces did not yield any improvements nor did it resolve the conflict.

If not for the sacrifices made during the second world war, the world as we know it would be an exceedingly different place. Furthermore, an occasion to learn about one of, if not the bloodiest campaigns of the second world war was something for me as a history enthusiast, something I could absolutely sink my teeth into. Moreover, with a wealth of knowledge gained, I proceeded to do additional research on the Italian Campaign and simultaneously discovered that my next paper due was a research paper on a topic of my choosing. Immediately after realizing what my topic would be, I continued my research and searching that would help facilitate the creation of an outstanding research paper.
