Also Read | Explained: Why is Agnipath soldier recruitment scheme so controversial,In Jharkhand, the government has decided to keep schools closed on Monday on account of the protests. Punjab is on alert after violent protests broke out in Ludhiana. Police are on alert on the Haryana borders around Delhi as well as Noida. In Noida, Section 144 has been imposed. Nearly 400 trains have been affected on account of the protests over last week. ,The Agnipath scheme involves a complete overhaul of India’s soldier recruitment process. The government seeks to hire people between ages 17.5 to 21 and make them serve a four-year tour of duty. During this period, the soldiers will receive salaries between Rs 30,000 and Rs 40,000. At the end of four years, 75% of these recruits, called Agniveers, will be released from service with a lumpsum payment of Rs 11.5 lakh. ,Critics of Agnipath see the new policy as turning soldier jobs contractual. They say this not only harms the morale of the Armed Forces because new recruits know that many of them won’t serve beyond four years but also that these soldiers will not be adequately trained. Also Read | Sons and soldiers: Why is farmer leader Rakesh Tikait enraged over Agnipath,After the initial announcement of the policy, upon seeing the wave of protests it had triggered, the Indian government made a concession and increased the upper limit for ‘Agniveer’ recruits to 23 years only for 2022. The government cited the two-year break in armed forces recruitment for the concession. ,Later, when protestors asked what would happen to ‘Agniveers’ after their four-year tour of duty was over, the Indian government said there would be a reservation for ‘Agniveers’ to join the Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF) which controls five paramilitary forces. ,While many aspirants are raging in protest, a top army official has warned protestors against partaking in vandalism. “The Indian Army’s foundation lies in discipline. There’s no space for arson or vandalism. Every individual will have to give a certificate they were not part of protests or vandalism. Police verification is mandatory, no one can join without it,” said Lieutenant General Anil Puri, who is an additional secretary at the department of military affairs, at a press conference on Sunday.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"28.6139","longitude":"77.209","name":"New Delhi, Delhi, India","city":"Delhi"},"keywords":"Agnipath,Indian,navy,air force,Jharkhand,Section 144,India,the Armed Forces,Agniveer,Agnipath scheme,agnipath scheme details","originalPublishedOn":"2022-06-20T08:15:42+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"CV4Xc7eGOpZw","slug":"english/bharat-bandh-amid-agnipath-scheme-protests-all-you-need-to-know","slugV2":"india/bharat-bandh-amid-agnipath-scheme-protests-all-you-need-to-know-682494/","title":"Bharat Bandh amid Agnipath scheme protests: All you need to know","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_ijYqbPd0m.jpg","coverCaption":"Protests over Agnipath scheme has spread across the nation (Photo Credit: Twitter/@ANI)","reactionStats":"{\"like_count\":0,\"heartbreak_count\":0,\"laugh_count\":0,\"sad_count\":0,\"angry_count\":0}","updatedOn":"2022-06-19T22:40:02+05:30","highlightSummary":"\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eProtests rage across the country over the Centre's newly implemented Agnipath recruitment programme\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eNumerous protesting organisations have asked for a Bharat Bandh on June 20\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eHere is everything you need to know about the situation\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ul\u003e","highlightSummaryFlag":1,"breakingSponsored":0,"coverMediaType":1,"reactionsCount":0,"commentsCount":0,"lastComment":null,"isUpdated":false,"lastCommentUser":null,"trustScore":1,"fakeTrust":2,"content":"{\\\"time\\\":1655658603643,\\\"strCount\\\":6072,\\\"blocks\\\":[{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"As \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/india/agnipath-soldier-recruitment-scheme-sets-parts-of-india-aflame-680114/\\\\\\\"\u003eprotests rage\u003c/a\u003e across the country, with fewer incidences reported on Sunday over the Centre's newly implemented \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/india/what-is-indian-governments-rationale-for-agnipath-defence-minister-rajnath-singh-explains-680862/\\\\\\\"\u003eAgnipath recruitment programme\u003c/a\u003e, numerous protesting organisations have asked for a Bharat Bandh on June 20.\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"Previously, under the 'Agnipath' system, youth between the ages of 17 and 21 were to be recruited into the \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/topics/army/\\\\\\\"\u003eArmy\u003c/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/topics/navy/\\\\\\\"\u003eNavy\u003c/a\u003e, and Air Force, mostly on a four-year short-term contract basis.

A change in the policy of recruitment puts lakhs of people who have been preparing to gain entry into the services in a quandary, according to protestors. ,Bihar, one of India’s most impoverished and populous states, has been at the forefront of protests. Aspirants of Indian defence services jobs have set a train on fire and law enforcement officials have attempted to counter protests shelling tear gas and wielding batons. ,In Bihar’s Jehanabad town, aspirants pelted stones injuring several people, including law enforcement officials. Police in turn chased the protestors in an attempt to clear railway tracks for trains to pass. Similar scenes were seen in Bihar’s Arrah where police resorted to tear gas shelling at stone pelters.

Because no commercial flights were available, President Joe Biden authorised the use of Air Force planes for the effort, dubbed Operation Fly Formula. Also read: Infants hospitalised in South Carolina due to baby formula shortage,White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters aboard Air Force One as Biden travelled from South Korea to Japan that the formula flown in was worth 78,000 pounds (35,380 kilograms). Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack was on hand in Indianapolis to meet the first shipment. The flights are meant to provide some incremental relief in the coming days while the government works on a more long-term solution to the shortfall, according to Brian Deese, director of the White House National Economic Council. Deese told CNN that the flight on Sunday provided 15% of the specialist medical grade formula needed in the US, and that due to various government efforts, Americans should see more formula in stores starting as early as this week.

The Biden administration has struggled to solve the widespread scarcity of infant formula, particularly hypoallergenic versions.

According to the White House, 132 pallets of Nestle Health Science Alfamino Infant and Alfamino Junior formula were scheduled to depart Ramstein Air Base in Germany for the United States. In the coming days, another 114 pallets of Gerber Good Start Extensive HA formula were planned to arrive.

According to an administration official on-site, the formula will be loaded into FedEx semitractor-trailers and transported to a Nestle distribution centre about a mile away, where the company will perform a standard quality control check before distributing the supplies to hospitals, pharmacies, and doctor's offices. Nestle stated that it has been working around the clock for the past few months to fix the formula deficit and meet demand. “We have significantly increased the amount of our formulas available to consumers by ramping up production and accelerating general product availability to retailers and online, as well as through hospitals and home health care for those most vulnerable,” the company said in a statement. “At Nestle we are absolutely committed to doing everything we can to get parents and caregivers the formula they need so their children can thrive,” the statement added. “We prioritised these products because they serve a critical medical purpose as they are for children with cow's milk protein allergies.”,According to the USDA, under Operation Fly Formula, the Departments of Agriculture and Health and Human Services are authorised to request Department of Defense assistance to pick up overseas infant formula that fulfils US health and safety standards, allowing it to reach store shelves faster.

Now some are risking their lives by forming a volunteer drone force to help their country repel the Russian invasion. Kyiv needs you and your drone at this moment of fury! read a Facebook post late last week from the Ukrainian military, calling for citizens to donate hobby drones and to volunteer as experienced pilots to operate them. Also read: Paralympics 2022: China censors peace calls in Russia-Ukraine war,One entrepreneur who runs a retail store selling consumer drones in the capital said its entire stock of some 300 drones made by Chinese company DJI has been dispersed for the cause. Others are working to get more drones across the border from friends and colleagues in Poland and elsewhere in Europe. Why are we doing this? We have no other choice. This is our land, our home, said Denys Sushko, head of operations at Kyiv-based industrial drone technology company DroneUA, which before the war was helping to provide drone services to farmers and energy companies. Also read: Several media outlets pull out of Russia over 'fake news' law: Report,Sushko fled his home late last week after his family had to take cover from a nearby explosion. He spoke to The Associated Press by phone and text message Friday after climbing up a tree for better reception. We try to use absolutely everything that can help protect our country and drones are a great tool for getting real-time data, said Sushko, who doesn't have a drone with him but is providing expertise. Now in Ukraine no one remains indifferent. Everyone does what they can. Also read: Operation Ganga: Three more Air Force aircraft with over 600 Indians land in Delhi,Unlike the much larger Turkish-built combat drones that Ukraine has in its arsenal, off-the-shelf consumer drones aren’t much use as weapons — but they can be powerful reconnaissance tools. Civilians have been using the aerial cameras to track Russian convoys and then relay the images and GPS coordinates to Ukrainian troops. Some of the machines have night vision and heat sensors. But there's a downside: DJI, the leading provider of consumer drones in Ukraine and around the world, provides a tool that can easily pinpoint the location of an inexperienced drone operator, and no one really knows what the Chinese firm or its customers might do with that data. That makes some volunteers uneasy. DJI declined to discuss specifics about how it has responded to the war. Also read: Pakistan likely to remain on FATF's grey list till June: Report,Taras Troiak, a dealer of DJI drones who started the Kyiv retail store, said DJI has been sending mixed signals about whether it's providing preferential access to — or disabling — its drone detection platform AeroScope, which both sides of the conflict can potentially use to monitor the other's flight paths and the communication links between a drone and the device that's controlling it. DJI spokesperson Adam Lisberg said wartime uses were “never anticipated” when the company created AeroScope to give policing and aviation authorities — including clients in both Russia and Ukraine — a window into detecting drones flying in their immediate airspace. He said some users in Ukraine have reported technical problems but DJI has not disabled the tool or given preferential access.

Ukraine has a thriving community of drone experts, some of whom were educated at the National Aviation University or the nearby Kyiv Polytechnic University and went on to found local drone and robotics startups.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"50.4501","longitude":"30.5234","name":"Kyiv, Ukraine","city":"Kyiv"},"keywords":"DJI,Ukraine,Ukrainian,Russia,Russian,Chinese,AeroScope,China,Poland,Europe,Denys Sushko,Kyiv,The Associated Press,Air Force,Indians","originalPublishedOn":"2022-03-05T12:00:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"Lny4YVPlfLxa","slug":"english/operation-ganga-three-more-air-force-aircraft-with-over-600-indians-land-in-delhi","slugV2":"world/operation-ganga-three-more-air-force-aircraft-with-over-600-indians-land-in-delhi-410932/","title":"Operation Ganga: Three more Air Force aircraft with over 600 Indians land in Delhi","postType":1,"coverMedia":"https://images.opoyi.net/opoyi_3IuAcToRT.jpg","coverCaption":"Indian nationals, evacuated from crisis-hit Ukraine.

Also read: Why growing fondness between China, Russia has Taiwan jittery,The Russian troop deployment to Belarus raised concerns in the West that Moscow could stage an attack on Ukraine from the north. The Ukrainian capital of Kyiv is just 75 kilometers (50 miles) from the border with Belarus. In recent months, Russia has conducted a series of joint drills with Belarus and repeatedly sent its nuclear-capable long-range bombers to patrol the skies over Belarus, which borders NATO members Poland, Lithuania and Latvia. Belarus’ authoritarian leader Alexander Lukashenko, who has increasingly relied on the Kremlin’s political and financial support amid bruising Western sanctions triggered by his crackdown on domestic protests, has called for closer defense ties with Moscow and recently offered to host Russian nuclear weapons. On Saturday, the German newspaper Bild published a report alleging that Russia is poised to attack Ukraine from several directions, capture major cities and install a puppet government. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova angrily dismissed the allegations. As war fears mounted, Ukrainian authorities launched a series of drills for civilians to prepare for a possible Russian invasion. Also read: China supports Russia against NATO’s expansion amid Ukraine crisis,“I am here to learn how to defend myself, defend my relatives and also understand how to act in the situation, Kyiv resident Ilya Goncharov said after taking part in drills on the outskirts of the Ukrainian capital. “I am happy that I came here to learn the basics of self defense and first aid.”,Amid the standoff over Ukraine, U.S. President Joe Biden has ordered 2,000 U.S.-based troops to Poland and Germany and shifted 1,000 more from Germany to Romania in a show of the U.S. commitment to NATO’s eastern flank. Earlier this week, Russian President Vladimir Putin has signaled Moscow's readiness for more talks with Washington and its NATO allies. As part of high-level diplomacy to ease the tensions, French President Emmanuel Macron is set to head to Moscow and Kyiv on Monday and Tuesday, while German Chancellor Olaf Scholz will travel to Kyiv and Moscow on Feb. 14-15. On Saturday, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson had a call with Macron and “they agreed that finding a diplomatic solution to the current tensions must remain the overriding priority.”,Johnson's office said he and the French president “also stressed that NATO must be united in the face of Russian aggression” and “agreed to continue to work together to develop a package of sanctions which would come into force immediately should Russia further invade Ukraine.”,In 2014, Russia annexed Ukraine's Crimean Peninsula after the ouster of its Moscow-friendly leader and threw its weight behind a separatist insurgency in eastern Ukraine, where over 14,000 have been killed in fighting. Also read: Vladimir Putin in Beijing for Games, Xi Jinping talks amid Ukraine tensions,Amid the tensions with the West, Putin on Friday attended the opening of the Winter Olympics in Beijing and met with China's leader Xi Jinping to strengthen the two countries' alliance. In a joint statement, Putin and Xi declared their opposition to any expansion of NATO while affirming that the island of Taiwan is a part of China. Putin and Xi announced that the relations between Moscow and Beijing are “superior to political and military alliances of the Cold War era and their friendship “has no limits.”","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"53.7098","longitude":"27.9534","name":"Belarus","city":"Mar’’ina Horka"},"keywords":"['Ukraine', 'Belarus', 'Russia', 'Russian bombers', 'air force', 'Tu-22M3 bombers']","originalPublishedOn":"2022-02-05T23:45:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"lQ0Gyv5zd3eB","slug":"who-was-charles-mcgee","slugV2":"world/who-was-charles-mcgee-412154/","title":"Who was Charles McGee?","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_Wpvse-_EcDV.jpg","coverCaption":"FILE - Tuskegee airman Charles McGee reacts as President Donald Trump delivers his State of the Union.

He was 102. McGee died in his sleep at his home in Bethesda, Maryland, said his son, Ron McGee. After the U.S. entry into World War II, McGee left the University of Illinois to join an experimental program for Black soldiers seeking to train as pilots after the Army Air Corps was forced to admit African Americans. In October 1942 he was sent to the Tuskegee Army Air Field in Alabama for flight training, according to his biography on the website of the National Aviation Hall of Fame. Also Read: Rise and fall: From Golden Globes to a golden glob of racial mess,You could say that one of the things we were fighting for was equality, he told The Associated Press in a 1995 interview. Equality of opportunity. We knew we had the same skills, or better. McGee graduated from flight school in June 1943 and in early 1944 joined the all-Black 332nd Fighter Group, known as the Red Tails. He flew 136 missions as the group accompanied bombers over Europe. More than 900 men trained at Tuskegee from 1940 to 1946. About 450 deployed overseas and 150 lost their lives in training or combat. In recent years the Tuskegee Airmen have been the subject of books, movies and documentaries highlighting their courage in the air and the doubts they faced on the ground because of their race. In 2007 a Congressional Gold Medal, the highest civilian award from Congress, was issued to recognize their unique military record that inspired revolutionary reform in the Armed Forces. Also Read: Sidney Poitier, Oscar winner and groundbreaking star, dies at 94,McGee remained in the Army Air Corps, later the U.S. Air Force, and served for 30 years. He flew low-level bombing and strafing missions during the Korean War and returned to combat again during the Vietnam War. The National Aviation Hall of Fame says his 409 aerial fighter combat missions in three wars remains a record. He retired as a colonel in the Air Force in 1973, then earned a college degree in business administration and worked as a business executive. He was accorded an honorary commission promoting him to the one-star rank of brigadier general as he turned 100. Another event marked his centennial year: He flew a private jet between Frederick, Maryland, and Dover Air Force Base in Delaware. In 2020, McGee drew a standing ovation from members of Congress when introduced by President Donald Trump during his State of the Union address. In addition to encouraging young men and women to pursue careers in aviation, McGee was a source of information about the Tuskegee Airmen and offered a unique perspective on race relations of the era through the airmen's nonprofit educational organization. At the time of the war, the idea of an all African American flight squadron was radical and offensive to many, McGee wrote in an essay for the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum. The prevailing opinion was that blacks did not possess the intelligence or courage to be military pilots. One general even wrote, 'The Negro type has not the proper reflexes to make a first-rate fighter pilot.' The Tuskegee Airmen certainly proved men like him wrong. Charles Edward McGee was born Dec. 7, 1919, in Cleveland, the son of a minister who also worked as a teacher and social worker and was a military chaplain. He graduated from high school in Chicago in 1938. Survivors include daughters Charlene McGee Smith and Yvonne McGee, 10 grandchildren, 14 great-grandchildren and a great-great grandchild. His wife of more than 50 years, Frances, died in 1994. Also Read: George Floyd's 4-year-old niece shot in Houston home on New Year's Day,A family statement described McGee as a living legend known for his kind-hearted and humble nature, who saw positivity at every turn. In tweets Sunday honoring McGee, both Vice President Kamala Harris and Defense Secretary Lloyd J. Austin III called him an American hero. While I am saddened by his loss, I'm also incredibly grateful for his sacrifice, his legacy, and his character. Rest in peace, General, Austin wrote. In his Smithsonian essay, McGee wrote that he was often asked why the Tuskegee Airmen were so successful in combat. I would say it was because of our courage and perseverance, he wrote. We dreamed of being pilots as boys but were told it was not possible. Through faith and determination we overcame enormous obstacles. This is a lesson that all young people need to hear. He added: I am most proud of my work as a Tuskegee Airman that helped bring down racial barriers and defeat the Nazis.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"38.9847","longitude":"-77.0947","name":"Bethesda, MD, USA","city":"Bethesda"},"keywords":"Charles McGee, Tuskegee Airman, World War II, African Americans","originalPublishedOn":"2022-01-17T13:00:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"WH45jPoxhY4n","slug":"russian-nuclear-bombers-patrol-belarus-skies-amid-tension-with-the-west","slugV2":"usa/russian-nuclear-bombers-patrol-belarus-skies-amid-tension-with-the-west-612229/","title":"Russian nuclear bombers patrol Belarus skies amid tension with the West","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_wHkUKK9BO.jpg","coverCaption":"Russian bombers patrol Belarus skies amid tension with the West.

American accounted for more than half of all canceled flights in the U.S. and by mid-afternoon another 500 of its flights were running late, according to tracking service FlightAware. Also Read: Bad weather, staff shortage causes major flight cancellations for American Airlines,Monday's performance was an improvement over Sunday when Americans scrubbed more than 1,000 flights — more than one-third of its schedule. Like other airlines, American encouraged thousands of workers to quit last year when air travel collapsed during the pandemic, only to be caught short-staffed this year when travel recovered faster than expected. ,Flight attendant staffing at American remains strained and reflects what is happening across the industry as we continue to deal with pandemic-related issues, said Paul Hartshorn Jr. a spokesman for the union representing American's flight attendants. Also Read: Starting 2024, Rome airport set for flying taxi services,Flight attendants said many reached their maximum allowable hours for October during the final days of the month, leaving many flights without cabin crews. About two-thirds of American's cancellations Sunday were due to a lack of flight attendants, with most of the rest due to pilot shortages, according to internal airline figures. American's troubles started Thursday and Friday, when high winds reduced flights at its busiest hub, Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport. American was unable to get pilots and flight attendants in position for upcoming flights, leading to about 1,900 cancellations nationwide from Friday through Sunday, according to FlightAware. David Seymour, the airline's chief operating officer, said over the weekend that help was on the way. He said about 1,800 flight attendants are coming back from leave starting Monday, and more are being hired by year-end. The airline is also hiring pilots and reservations agents, he said. American continued to blame cancellations on last week's weather long after the howling winds subsided in Texas, and that didn't sit well with some longtime customers. The whole weather thing irritates me because that's how they get out of financial responsibility. I feel sorry for the folks who are stuck some place and (American) won't give them a hotel voucher, said Craig Beam, who works in real estate for health care companies.

The review, done by the Air Force inspector general, also concluded that minorities and women are underrepresented in leadership and officer positions, particularly at the senior levels, and get promoted less frequently. It echoed many of the findings of an initial review, released last December, which found that Black service members in the Air Force are far more likely to be investigated, arrested, face disciplinary actions and be discharged for misconduct. Also Read: China court drops sexual assault case against former Alibaba employee,The two reviews into racial, ethnic and gender disparities across the Air Force and Space Force broadly confirm that biases exist, but the data does not fully explain why. The studies also reflect broader campaigns within the Defense Department and the Biden administration to root out extremism and racism. ,President Joe Biden has declared domestic extremism an urgent national security threat and the Defense Department is working to identify extremist behavior and eliminate it from the force. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, earlier this year, ordered military leaders to spend a day talking to their troops about extremism in the ranks, after a number of former and current military members took part in the assault on the U.S. Capitol in January. In addition, the Defense Department late last year endorsed a slate of initiatives to more aggressively recruit, retain and promote a more racially and ethnically diverse force. ,There are a lot of disparities within the Air Force, said Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall in a call with reporters. This includes things like promotions, how people are treated in their careers, how they're treated in assignments, other areas under the judicial system, if you will, and also about perceptions that people have. In the latest study, about half of all female respondents said maintaining work/life balance and taking care of family commitments adversely affect them, while only 18% of men responding to the survey shared that view. It also found that about 25% of female Air Force and Space Force civilians said they had experienced sexual harassment during their careers. And it said some women across the force didn't trust their chain of command to address the bad behavior, and feared retribution. Also Read: Reluctant witness testifies against R. Kelly at federal trial,Women and minorities also said they believe they have to work harder to prove their competency. ,While the first study looked at disparities for Black service members, the latest one involved women, Asian, American Indian/Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander and Hispanic/Latino personnel in active duty, the National Guard, Reserves and civilian workforce. As a result, the report said, thousands of female and minority Air and Space Force members reported instances of bias, discrimination and sexual harassment that contribute to the racial, ethnic and gender disparities laid out in the document. Lt. Gen. Sami Said, the inspector general, told reporters that some of the largest gaps are in operational jobs, which include pilots and other combat-related posts. As an example, in 2020, nearly 84% of the pilots in the active duty Air Force were white. and more than 92% were male. In contrast, 7.7% were female, 3% were Hispanic/Latino, 2.7% were Asian American, 2% were Black, 0.5% were Native American and 0.3% were Pacific Islander. The problem, according to Said, starts with recruiting. A common theme in surveys and group discussions, he said, was that women and minorities believe there is a lack of people that look like us that can mentor us and advise us. Because they aren't brought in to key operational jobs at decent rates, they are at a disadvantage when competing with others for promotions and better jobs. In addition, the report found that Native Americans were 113% more likely to face a court-martial than their White peers, and that they and Hispanic/Latino Air Force members were 33% more likely to face criminal investigations. The second report released Thursday laid out some of the ongoing efforts to address shortfalls found in the December review on bias against Blacks. It also found they were less likely to be promoted and that one-third believed they don't get the same opportunities as their white peers. It said the Air Force is working to increase diversity awareness among recruiters and expand partnerships with institutions that have large minority populations to beef up recruiting. That effort would include directing more minorities to key career fields that have a greater opportunity for advancement. Also Read: R Kelly kept a gun while sexually abusing me: Accuser during trial,The Air Force also has set up new policies to track administrative actions based on age, rank, gender and race, and it recommended more training for commanders and other key leaders on unconscious bias. Said told reporters that he is 100% convinced that senior leaders are focused on the diversity issue. It's not a shiny object of the moment that fades, he said. More than 100,500 individuals participated in the anonymous survey for the latest gender and minority study. The participants also turned in more than 16,900 single-spaced pages of other comments and were involved in 122 small-group discussions.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"38.9072","longitude":"-77.0369","name":"Washington D.C., DC, USA","city":"Washington"},"keywords":"Sexual harrasment in US Air Force, Air Force harrasement, Women and minorities","originalPublishedOn":"2021-09-10T06:20:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"ffKqYQ9r0VVh","slug":"was-it-worth-it-a-fallen-marine-and-a-wars-crushing-end","slugV2":"world/was-it-worth-it-a-fallen-marine-and-a-wars-crushing-end-293843/","title":"`Was it worth it?'

Alec Catherwood, who had left three weeks before for the battlefields of Afghanistan.,Also read: US Embassy urges citizens to leave Kabul airport amid security threat,And then, as she recalls it, she lost her mind. She ran wildly through the house. She opened the door and told the men they couldn’t come inside. She picked up a flower basket and hurled it at them. She screamed so loud and for so long the next day she could not speak.,“I just wanted them not to say anything,” said Gretchen Catherwood, “because if they said it, it would be true. And, of course, it was.”,Her 19-year-old son was dead, killed fighting the Taliban on Oct. 14, 2010.,As she watched the news over the last two weeks, it felt like that day happened 10 minutes ago. The American military pulled out of Afghanistan, and all they had fought so hard to build seemed to collapse in an instant. The Afghan military put down its weapons, the president fled and the Taliban took over. As thousands crushed into the Kabul airport desperate to escape, Gretchen Catherwood felt like she could feel in her hands the red sweater she’d been folding the moment she learned her son was dead.,Also read: Malala Yousafzai still has a part of skull she lost to Taliban bullets 9 years ago,Her phone buzzed with messages from the family she’s assembled since that horrible day: the officer who’d dodged the flowerpot; the parents of others killed in battle or by suicide since; her son’s fellow fighters in the storied 3rd Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment, nicknamed the Darkhorse Battalion, that endured the highest rate of causalities in Afghanistan. Many of them call her “Ma.”,Outside of this circle, she’d seen someone declare “what a waste of life and potential” on Facebook. Friends told her how horrible they’d felt that her son had died in vain. As she exchanged messages with the others who’d paid the price of war, she worried its end was forcing them to question whether all they had seen and all they had suffered had mattered at all.,“There are three things I need you to know,” she said to some. “You did not fight for nothing. Alec did not lose his life for nothing. I will be here for you no matter what, until the day I die. Those are the things I need you to remember.”,Also read: Afghanistan's $1 trillion mineral deposits: Reason for China backing the Taliban?,In the woods behind her house, the Darkhorse Lodge is under construction. She and her husband are building a retreat for combat veterans, a place where they can gather and grapple together with the horrors of war. There are 25 rooms, each named after one of the men killed from her son’s battalion. The ones who made it home have become their surrogate sons, she said. And she knows of more than a half-dozen who have died from suicide.,“I am fearful of what this might do to them psychologically. They’re so strong and so brave and so courageous. But they also have really, really big hearts. And I feel that they might internalize a lot and blame themselves,” she said. “And oh God, I hope they don’t blame themselves.”,___,The 3rd Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment deployed in the fall of 2010 from Camp Pendleton, California, sending 1,000 U.S. Marines on what would become one of the bloodiest tours for American service members in Afghanistan.,The Darkhorse Battalion spent six months battling Taliban fighters in the Sangin district of Helmand province. An area of green fields and mud compounds, Sangin remained almost entirely in the Taliban’s control nearly a decade into the U.S.-led war. Fields of lush poppies used in narcotics gave the militants valued income they were determined to hold.,When the Marines arrived, white Taliban flags flew from most buildings. Loudspeakers installed to broadcast prayers were used to taunt U.S. forces. Schools had closed.,The Marines came under fire as soon as a helicopter dropped them outside their patrol base.,“When the bird landed, we were already getting shot at,” recalled former Sgt. George Barba of Menifee, California. “We run, we get inside and I remember our gunnery sergeant telling us: `Welcome to Sangin. You just got your combat action ribbon.’”,Snipers lurked in the trees. Fighters armed with rifles hid behind mud walls. Homemade bombs turned roads and canals into deathtraps.,Sangin was Alec Catherwood's first combat deployment. He had enlisted in the Marines while still in high school, went to boot camp shortly after graduation, then was assigned to a 13-man squad led by former Sgt. Sean Johnson.,Also read: Afghanistan crisis: Why key lawmakers want India to attend G-7 meetings,Johnson was impressed by Catherwood’s professionalism — physically fit, mentally tough and always on time.,“He was only 19, so that was extra special,” Johnson said. “Some are still just trying to figure out how to tie their boots and not get yelled at.”,Catherwood also made them laugh. He carried around a small, stuffed animal he used as a prop for jokes.,Barba recalled Catherwood’s first helicopter ride during training, and how he was “smiling ear-to-ear and he’s swinging his feet like he’s a little kid on a highchair.”,Former Cpl. William Sutton of Yorkville, Illinois, swore Catherwood would crack jokes even during a firefight.,“Alec, he was a shining light in that darkness,” said Sutton, who was shot multiple times fighting in Afghanistan. “And then they took it from us.”,On Oct. 14, 2010, after a late night standing watch outside their patrol base, Catherwood’s squad headed out to assist fellow Marines under attack, who were running low on ammunition.,They crossed open fields, using irrigation canals for cover. After sending half his squad safely ahead, Johnson tapped Catherwood on the helmet and said: “Let’s go.”,After running just three steps, he said, gunfire from ambushing Taliban fighters sounded behind them. Johnson looked down and saw a bullet hole in his pants where he had been shot in the leg. Then came a deafening explosion — one of the Marines had stepped on a hidden bomb. Johnson blacked out momentarily, waking up in the water.,Another explosion followed. Looking to his left, Johnson saw Catherwood floating facedown. It was obvious, he said, that the young Marine was dead.,Explosions during the ambush killed another Marine, Lance Cpl. Joseph Lopez of Rosamond, California, and badly wounded another.,Back in the United States, Staff Sergeant Steve Bancroft began an excruciating two-hour drive toward Catherwood's parents' house in northern Illinois. He’d served seven months in Iraq before he became a casualty assistance officer, tasked with notifying families of a death on the battlefield.,“I’d never wish that on anybody, I can’t express that enough: I do not wish looking a mom and dad in the face and telling them their only son is gone,” said Bancroft, who is now retired.,He was stoic when he had to be, as he escorted families to Dover, Delaware, to watch coffins be rolled out of a plane. But when he was alone, he cried. And he still weeps when he thinks about the moment he arrived at the home of Gretchen and Kirk Catherwood.,They laugh now about the hurled flowerpot. He still regularly talks to them and other sets of parents he notified. Though he never met Alec, he feels like he knows him.,“Their son was such a hero, it’s hard to explain, but he sacrificed more than 99% of the people in this world would ever think of doing,” he said.,“Was it worth it? We lost so many people. It’s hard to think about how many we’ve lost.” he said.,___,Gretchen Catherwood keeps the cross her son was wearing on a chain around her bedpost with his dog tags.,Alongside it hangs a glass bead, blown with the ashes of another young Marine: Cpl. Paul Wedgewood, who made it home.,The Darkhorse Battalion returned to California in April 2011. After months of intense fighting, they'd largely seized Sangin from the Taliban’s grip. Leaders of the provincial government could move about safely. Children, including girls, returned to school.,It came at a heavy price. In addition to the 25 who perished, more than 200 returned home wounded, many with lost limbs, others with scars harder to see.,Wedgewood had trouble sleeping when he finished his four-year enlistment and left the Marine Corps in 2013. As he slept less, he drank more.,A tattoo on his upper arm showed a sheet of scroll paper bearing the names of four Marines who died in Sangin. Wedgewood considered reenlisting, but told his mother: “If I stay, I think it’ll kill me.”,Instead, Wedgewood enrolled in college back home in Colorado, but soon lost interest. A welding program at a community college proved a better fit.,Wedgewood had been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder. He was taking medication, participating in therapy.,“He was very engaged in working on his mental health,” said the Marine’s mother, Helen Wedgewood. “He was not a neglected veteran.”,Still, he struggled. On the Fourth of July, Wedgewood would take his dog camping in the woods to avoid fireworks. He quit a job he liked after a backfiring machine caused him to dive to the floor.,Five years after Sangin, things appeared to be looking up. Wedgewood was preparing for a new job that would take him back to Afghanistan as a private security contractor. He seemed to be in a good place.,After a night of drinking with his roommates, Wedgewood didn’t show up for work on Aug. 23, 2016. A roommate later found him dead in his bedroom. He had shot himself. He was 25 years old.,He left a short note.,“He basically said that he loved us, but he was tired,” Helen Wedgewood said.,She considers her son and others who took their own lives to be casualties of war every bit as much as those killed in action.,When the Taliban swept back into control of Afghanistan just before the fifth anniversary of her son’s death, she felt relief that a war that left more than 2,400 Americans dead and more than 20,700 wounded had finally come to an end. But there was also sadness that gains made by the Afghan people — especially women and children — may be temporary.,“As a mom, this kind of stabs you, because would he still be around, would any of these young men still be around if this whole war hadn’t happened?” she said. “But I try to gently correct people when they say this was a waste or this was all for nothing. Because that’s not true. We don’t know what impacts it’s had on the safety of our country, on the safety of the Afghan people.”,___,Some who served with the Darkhorse Battalion are having a hard time seeing it any way other than that their efforts, their blood and the lives of their fallen friends were all for nothing.,“I’m starting to feel like how the Vietnam vets felt. There was no purpose to it whatsoever,” said Sutton, 32, who now works in the veterans services office of a county outside Chicago, helping military vets get care.,“We were able to hold our head up high and say we went to the last Taliban stronghold and we gave them hell,” Sutton said, “only for it all to be taken away. In the blink of an eye.”,Barba, 34, works as a private security guard near Los Angeles. He and his wife are expecting their first child. He said he’s had trouble sorting his feelings about the bleak news from Afghanistan. His wife recently woke to Barba screaming in his sleep. “I think your nightmares are back,” she told him.,“It really is weird,” Barba said. “I’ve seen my guys get mad. I’ve seen my guys get frustrated. But not like this. This is like somebody spit in their face.”,Johnson, 34, works as a commercial diver in Florida. He said the U.S. should have acknowledged years ago that the Afghan security forces Americans trained and equipped would never be able to defend the country on their own.,“My personal opinion, yeah, we probably should have pulled out years and years ago,” Johnson said. “If you’re not going to win the damn thing, what are you doing there?”,___,A few months ago, Gretchen Catherwood was painting the cabins that will become the Darkhorse Lodge. It was dark, still without electricity and no cell service, so it was quiet. She felt suddenly like she could feel her son and his 24 fallen comrades. She could almost see their faces.,“It’s a place where I can feel like they’re together,” she said, “and that they are still caring for their brothers.”,The Catherwoods moved out of their home in Illinois. Every time she walked to the front door, Gretchen remembered those four men arriving with the news. She couldn’t bear it anymore.,The gold star pins she wore everyday on her chest kept breaking. She’d always disliked tattoos and hassled her son when he got one as a Marine. But then she found herself at a tattoo parlor. She had his name inked on her arm, and the shape of a gold star pin put permanently on her chest, just above her heart, so she’d never take it off again.,She could no longer care for her son, she said, but she could for those who made it home.

One woman sends a check for $2 every month. Bancroft, the officer who notified her of her son’s death, donates every year. The obituary for one soldier who died by suicide asked for donations to the Darkhorse Lodge in his memory, and checks flooded the Catherwoods’ mailbox.,They hope to open next summer and offer free stays for any combat veteran from any war or branch of the military who might benefit from time in the woods, where the only conflict is among the dozens of hummingbirds fighting over the feeders on her front porch.,She is hopeful that the American withdrawal from Afghanistan means no one else will die on a battlefield there. But she also worries that it might rattle the vets who made it home, and who might already be struggling to make sense of what happened there and why.,“That’s a constant fear, it’s been my fear since they got back but now it’s even worse,” she said. “They experienced things that 99% of the country never will. I’ve never watched a friend die. I’ve never fought to the death.

These planes will supplement Air Mobility Command's long-range intertheater C-5s and C-17s at times of increased airlift demand, ranging from minor contingencies to full-fledged national defence emergencies.,Contractually, airlines pledge aircraft to CRAF's various divisions, making them available for activation as needed. The government makes peacetime DoD airlift business accessible to commercial airlines that contribute aircraft to the CRAF programme to provide incentives for private carriers to commit aircraft to the CRAF programme and to ensure the United States has appropriate airlift reserves.,Why has the Civil Reserve Air Fleet been activated for the third time in 70 years?,US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin ordered US commercial airlines to provide planes to help speed up Afghanistan evacuation efforts, the Pentagon said Sunday.,The planes would not fly into Kabul, instead of transporting individuals who had already been flown out of the country to military facilities in Europe and the Middle East. According to the Pentagon, this will allow military aircraft to focus on operations in and out of the Afghan capital.,The activation is for 18 aircraft: three each from American Airlines, Atlas Air, Delta Air Lines, and Omni Air; two from Hawaiian Airlines; and four from United Airlines.,ALSO READ | President Biden backs Pentagon's plan to mandate COVID vaccine for troops,United Airlines' first flight under the CRAF programme took off from Frankfurt-Hahn Airport on Sunday and landed at Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar. After a refuelling stop in Germany, it will most likely fly evacuees to the United States, although timetables may change. The airline is looking at stocking diapers, personal hygiene products, and clothes on some of its aircraft.,CRAF activation provides the Department of Defense access to commercial air mobility resources to augment our support to the Department of State in the evacuation of U.S. citizens and personnel, Special Immigrant Visa applicants, and other at-risk individuals from Afghanistan, Pentagon press secretary John Kirby said in a statement, according to NBC inputs.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"38.9072","longitude":"-77.0369","name":"Washington D.C., DC, USA","city":"Washington"},"keywords":"Civil Reserve Air Fleet, Defense, Department, CRAF, Department of Defense,","originalPublishedOn":"2021-08-23T03:15:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"CdMo2xFdlh6P","slug":"donald-trump-admits-he-single-handedly-moved-space-command-headquarters","slugV2":"usa/donald-trump-admits-he-single-handedly-moved-space-command-headquarters-236834/","title":"Donald Trump admits he single-handedly moved Space Command headquarters","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_sHubNj6LU.jpg","coverCaption":"Donald Trump is the former President of the US.
