based on guarding the navy, the navy ports, navy yards. basically being cops. defeated. how was it defeated? it was defeated because the american rose up and one of the marine's fathers was head of the naval affairs committee and basically brought it to america's attention. and they said, no, we want marines. a lot of it was based on china and guantanamo bay. you can start to see people irritated with these marines. once the army, especially, so they survive. and then comes 1914 and vera cruz. and the marines have almost gone out of business this time by the navy and they said, marines, we challenge you to make a landing. and they anticipated the 1914 naval exercise. and if you can't do it, your funding is gone. so luckily, john lejeune, the greatest naval commander of all, takes that unit down there to calabra and succeeds in planting the guns and bringing in some aviation into the fleet exercises. so it's another time the marines could have gone away but an uprising in mexico brought the marines to vera cruz in april 1914. so the marines are luckily there from the vera

say about the marine corps, it is the men's department of the u.s. navy. that might be politically incorrect to say, but i think you'll understand. my question is about the decision to drop the atomic bomb. bringing it back to that, and how would you say truman's experience in world were 1 -- in and his recognition of the casualties that would likely be incurred in an invasion of japan, how did that factor into his decision? up on thed you picked thing i was dangling out there at the beginning. the point i was just talking nott was that it was battled for very long. how could that not impact his psyche in terms of not becoming a war president? truman sawt is that what war was, experienced it and didn't need to duck 10 more months to see debt and disruption. death and destruction. knowing truman, having studied , sometimes he would not respond with letters in such. is, he was really a genius. his determination to drop the bomb was well thought out. -- determination was his point was, it is going to save lives in the end. the fouru tell me stars and five sta

the israeli ministry released a statement saying that the navy had intercepted this vessel because it was trying to violate what it describes as the illegal blockade on gaza it said that the navy had been monitoring and indeed the interception of this vessel was carried out according to international law it was around about the same time that the old when a zation responsible for this flotilla put out a statement calling on the governments of the various people on board to act immediately now the organization the international freedom flotilla coalition says that it was fully aware that there was a very strong chomps that israel was going to do this that israel was going to stop this flotilla from reaching but he said it was important that it was done anyway as a means of trying to highlight the suffering of the gazans on the international stage and i have just come from gaza today and trying to describe the conditions for the two million people living there is very very difficult fifty percent of the population living in under the poverty line around fifty percent unemployed not enou

with the navy. charles lee o'connor is given one of the lowliest jobs, a water tender on the uss mount vernon. the mount vernon is a captured german jet vessel. in world war i we had very little american shipping. it was diminished. it was almost at civil war levels in some cases. there was a great need for shipping. we needed to take the american troops and army over to france. there was a race to quickly build ships, but another thing that is curious that isn't really documented in many places is there were a number of german vessels that tried to find safe harbor in the united states at the beginning. they knew the united states was a neutral nation. they were afraid of france and england's navies that they crossed the atlantic, so they tried to find safe harbor in the united states. one of those was the ss crown prince cassell. it was a german vessel that was nearly the size of the titanic. it was an ocean liner, but the german vessel also had a hidden secret. it was carrying millions of dollars

the secretary of the navy has said that the department of navy alone wasted $4 billion since 2011 because of continuing resolutions. that's $4 billion of real money that could have been used to fund more ships, more planes, or more maintenance. under a continuing resolution, the department of defense and the services are not allowed to enter into any new contracts. every year we have delayed the timeline to schedule maintenance, availabilities, and procurement schedules. all of these things are crucial to maintain deployment rotation and ensure the u.s. presence is felt around the world. compare this to your personal finances. for half a year you're only able to pay your current expenses like car payments and utilities. you know who gets the money later in the year? things you don't need to invest in. does that sound frustrating and ineffective? we have the world's greatest military, yet, we're hamstringing them with not a good funding cycle. the inability of congress to pass government funding bills on time has endangered the health, lives, safety of our military members. look at the nav

the navy's work land on the parcel g retesting. it's essential to have a critical process that the community can trust. as you know, the hunter's point shipyard is a federal project of a clean up by the navy to prepare the site for an ambitious new development that will add approximately 12,000 housing units in san francisco. the navy is a lead agency for the clean up and the environmental protection agency is providing regulatory oversight. the department has been involved in this project for many years. i would say over two decades. reviewing documents and working with the navy and the epa. we have also -- i met -- talked to the epa with several of our staff members this week and we are going to be having two meetings with them over the phone on a monthly basis to ensure that we are coordinating as well as the regulatory agency. we've had our staff member, amy, who has been our engineer in this area and i've also asked our environmental health director, stephanie kushing who will be supporting amy in the future around all of thes

that is the story of the navy, the american navy in world war i. wilsonh 1917, president had a real threat on his hands. german u-boats were sinking american shipping at an alarming rate. even before we entered world war i. there was a decision made to bring naval guards onboard merchant ships, to arm them with typically five inch guns and give the merchant ship a crew of about 15 naval personnel. they are naval guards during one of those was james delaney. james delaney was a tough irishman from boston, massachusetts. his body was inked with the ships he served on, serving since 18. his life was the navy, and he was given command of a naval gun cam on the uss -- the ss pana, merchant ship. their journey in the summer was mid-summer andl they were making their way back to the united states, and all of a sudden a torpedo nearly hit the ship. it was then quickly followed by artillery fire. the men manned their guns and began to respond. ewed by anwas cr expert, lieutenant captain dickman who had sunk 40 ships, na. no his prey was the campa they manne

the flaw was extremely high and that is what kept stopping the effort of the thai navy the first couple of days. the extreme flow and a lot of people don't understand that, how violent that water flow can be. for the british divers to go in there and find them was just remarkable. ed, thank you so much for joining remarkable. ed, thank you so much forjoining us on the programme. let's talked to mr annan from our thai service. give us a sense of the weather conditions at this time. thailand is in the middle of monsoon season. it starts from around the end of may to the end of september. the rain in the uk is nothing compared to what we have in tropical weather so you have it up in the north in mountainous areas so you have water coming down from the top of the hill, what are just everywhere and the governor of the other day at a press conference gave us other day at a press conference gave usa other day at a press conference gave us a sense other day at a press conference gave us a sense of how much water it was. he was saying that they tried to stop the water pumping forjust 12 minutes

scene has more on the rescue effort before the death of the navy seal was announced. how long will they stay down there? the boys are now getting care and food, but the thai authorities are still debating whether to risk bringing them out quickly or waiting, possibly for months. dozens of volunteers are helping the navy divers. this is an exhausting and sometimes dangerous operation. this television actor is one of them. "water is the main obstacle," he says. "if we can get the water level down, the boys can be brought out." but while a massive pumping effort is reducing it in the first section of caves, it's having less effect deeper in, where the boys are trapped. so, the thai army has been taking equipment to the other end of the mountains to try and lower the water table here, close to their location. they have a number of ideas they want to try. but their first effort has been to divert the streams which feed the underground pools. we followed them up, alongside pipes that had been laid just in the past few days. this creek has completely dried up. a week ago it

this is the expertise of the thai navy s.e.a.l.s. this is treacherous land. you want the experts to handle this. these kids, they're poor kids from humble families. some can't swim. it's a very difficult operation. but you have to be sensitized to the local expertise, the local needs. while the international community, this is a great news story and that we want to get these kids saved with all of the bad news in the world, everybody is rallying around getting these kids out. you want to be careful. and what you also want to do, alex, i've been in that country. i was there about four months ago, you want to get there before the monsoons. when the torrential rains come down, they come down very hard. it's not just like sprinkles. they come down hard. and they affect the land enormously. they would probably fill up all of the water, all that cave. this is why i think this is moving efficiently, effectively, and as rapidly as possible. everybody is rooting for a great outcome. the international support is there. >> it is. and to your point, everyone is rooting f

in terms of the army marine and navy and air force. too often historical events are without the context. if you look at the newspaper there, you will see up there a pretty picture of the marines landing in guantanamo bay. if you look at the rest of the paper, it is everybody else. he was there with him to talk about it. one of the best counts of military action was the rain. you are going to see a pattern develop class italians and regiments doing things, and famous reporters and such trailing along with them. this is 1898. take a look at this. basically, there is the marines coming off ships. they go to rescue the consulates in beijing. then, more marines come, and to regiments of army go there as well. those marines may not be gone yet. they help picture the marines. that's one of the things all of the talks today have been about is all of the impacts world war i had on america and the armed forces. we are starting to see marines and places farther away from our chores, because we are becoming an international nation for the first ti

for the divers who have come from so many nations, and the thai navy seals and for the children themselves who have stepped up to the mark. we know that they will not have had to dive the whole distance, not by any means, because of the drainage they were able to do. they will have been able to walk and crawl some of the distance which will have made life easier even though it is very physical. my admiration is for the children and their rescuers. how safe is cave diving for children? cave diving for children in the uk is not allowed. if you were to ask to go diving under the age of 16 in a cave with anyone from the cave diving group, they would say, no, you will have to wait until you are older. you can learn to dive in warm water, ordinary diving, not in the caves and you can take those skills underground when you're older. you work within the british caving association. how do you make caving safe for children? are you hearing from parents who had planned to send their children away on a summer holiday, enjoying caving systems, now saying, can we hold back? not a word. this summer, i am

the night of the boys are reported missing the time navy's elite seals diving team join the search. working around the clock in peach darkness they wade swim and dive through the black waters. at the same time agencies and volunteers begin the member of the task of pumping water from the cave and surrounding area. the right they could survive. six days to do more to now that the. fire i am going to be a point in time where the. even the entrance to. the day three the sutures escalated into a major military operation. hundreds of searches scale the milton for alternative entry points into the cave. what. the who is the boys in the coach have made it to a location clear of the rising water. move. along in the hope of it but hold up and i'll be on the money if i need to top. it all is how. i don't want to live it up blow it out how to. love me i'm going to keep up logic on me and i'm the last minute. on. hold relatives can do is pray. to four days this still moves son the boys are alive. the time navy seals are unable to navigate the lebron of tide passages filled with murky flood wate

there are rescue members from australia, the uk, the thai navy seals. you can cp pull moving, coming and going around the site itself. now co—ordiating the rescue mission are two british cave diving experts, john volanthen and richard stanton. joining me now, another cave diving expert and friend of the british pair in thailand is martyn farr, who operates are diving training organisation out of crichhowell near abergavenny. thank you forjoining us on bbc news. what is your initial reaction to the latest development? this is absolutely fantastic news. the boys are starting to come out of the cave. that will be a massive morale booster. it obviously is an indicator that things are going very well at this point in time. clearly it isa well at this point in time. clearly it is a big ask for everyone involved. we all understand how critical this weather window, well, it is shrinking as we speak, but the right people are doing the right things, andi right people are doing the right things, and i am optimistic that things, and i am optimistic that things wi

first thing that happens is that the occupation navy cut blocks all of the. satellite signals transmitting data from the boats but also satellite phones this is an act of an admission of guilt because they're about to commit something that they know they don't want the eyes of the world to see so when we're responding to the calls from guys and going there to you know citizens of the world grassroots movements to meet these people who are calling for us this for some reason is something when they when they block our boats when they attack our boats and board them and kidnap the people on board in international waters. they know that they don't want the world to see it so our last call was just after one pm local time and you know they had said we're losing we're losing satellite signal to the world is doing pretty much imminent but now look the activists on board you know one of them you mean one of them you're all pretty well aware i would have thought of the risks and yet you're still prepared to do it i'm thinking of two thousand and ten the mavi marmara t

we've been told now by the chiang rai governor the navy seals in the last few hours managed to push through into that area called patio beach and there was no one there the area was flooded so they knew straight away that it would have been impossible for those boys and their coach to stay there so they continued on for another few hundred metres and found them sitting basically on a ledge on a dry part of the cave so that is where they found them we think it's a little bit difficult to get exact details but just short of four and a half kilometers inside that cave so that just tells you exactly how difficult and perhaps how long it is going to be before we see those people brought out of the cave i mean clearly it must be not denying for the boys themselves waiting all the time wondering if anyone was evident to reach them to rescue them but also a terrifying. for the parents and the relatives and i know that you've used the relatives in the us what they've been saying since they've had the news that they've actually been found alive. well it's been a wave of emotions really for th

deploy all kinds of equipment that they need, look at the navy seals, you have the army, you have the navy, the agencies and the internal ministries that all descended on this operation. so they are doing that very, very well, and in a way, it's positive for the military, who seem to be losing a little bit of popularity on the political front because they promised to hold an election, just a few months after they took power, they keep postponing this election goalposts, until the latest timeline now is february next year. so this somehow gets the media attention away from whether the elections are rescheduled again. but on the other hand they seem to get some support and credit for delivering this. stay with us on bbc world news, still to come: we'll look at the other news making headlines at this hour — including the deadly floods and mudslides injapan, which have already killed more than 60 people. central london has been rocked by a series of terrorist attacks. police say there has been many casualties and there is growing speculation that al-qaeda were responsible. germany will

we just heard from the thai navy seals that the four divers -- they are waiting for the four divers, the three seals and the one doctor -- to come out of the cave. they got the kids and the coach out first, they are waiting for the divers and the doctor. hopefully we can bring you that good news shortly. in the meantime, let's go to the hospital. matt rivers is outside the hospital where the boys have been taken one after the oth after the other as they have been rescued to get the health care they need. matt, what are you seeing? >> john it was just a minute ago that it was ambulance number 11 that just went behind us. that means that boys nine, ten, and 11 have now arrived here at the hospital. we're expecting the 12th boy and coach to be following up shortly after that. they're treated at a field hospital, they are airlifted to close by and they are brought to this hospital. as soon as they get here they are brought upstairs to the eighth floor. there is a special unit that has been set up for several days where these boys go. there's a concern that the immune systems of the boys

of the air force and the navy. similarly, i could argue there is no single bellybutton for air. with aircraft in air force equipment in the army and the navy. shared we pull all those out and create a separate force for air and air error alone so that isy integrated? my point is this. you can organize and reorganize in any way you could think of, but the real question is, is it worth it? you go through a major realization for anybody who's ever been through it, you will spend years your brine say one, two, three. i bet it is 515. look at dhs, the thrashing that is going on. eventually it will settle out but you will go through years of thrashing. if it -- will it help you achieve your goals and address the real challenges that we have on our plate? again, i come down to i don't think so. i wouldn't vote in favor of it. and the last thing i want to say is, and i did this come as a public were always very openly talk about our challenges, and we are as we testify before the congress and the our challenges in the spac
