Light Heavyweight Jon Jones continued his dominance as he stopped Vladimir Matyushenko in round one of a scheduled three round bout at the San Diego Sports Arena in San Diego, California.

Jones pounded a way at Matyushenko while holding his left arm and Matyushenko was unable to defend himself which led referee Herb Dean to stop the fight ninety-two seconds into the fight.

Charles Olivera remained undefeated as he needed forty-one seconds to make Darren Elkins tap out from an arm bar in a lightweight bout scheduled for three rounds.

Jake Ellenberger scored a third round stoppage over John Howard when Howard could not continue due to excessive swelling around his left eye.

In a match that was back and forth, it was Ellenberger’s striking that made Howard’s eye swell grotesquely fro both over and under his eye. When the Octagonside physician asked Howard, Howard said he could not see which prompted the fight to be stopped at 2:21 of round three.

Ellenberger, 170 1/2 lbs of Omaha, NB is now 23-5. Howard, 170 1/2 lbs of Boston, MA is now 14-6.

National Training Center (NTC)

Engineer April 1, 2000 | Bell, Steven; Neal, Robert On today’s battlefields, engineer leaders are, more and more, pressed for time. Therefore, they must make work efficiently between missions to reconsolidate, resupply, and prepare soldiers and equipment for future operations. Two recent trends in these areas have been identified during training at the National Training Center. First, companies and platoons often lack effective SOPS for tactical assembly area (TAA) operations. Second, too little focus is placed on preparing the unit’s equipment for continued operations.

Engineer Platoon TAA Procedures Issue: Engineer platoons frequently do not have an SOP for TAA procedures.

Discussion: Engineer platoons often do not employ all chemical defense equipment (CDE). They also frequently do not establish tactical wire communications, protective obstacles, and listening posts/observation posts (LPs/OPs) for early warning. in our site gta 5 news

Recommendation: Engineer platoons should develop specific SOPs for TAA procedures. The SOPS should be based on the company and battalion SOPs and doctrinal references such as FM 5-34, Engineer Field Data, pages 1-13 and 1-14. Emphasis should be placed on establishing priorities of work that enhance force protection. Security can be enhanced by performing quartering party operations, emplacing key weapons, emplacing CDE, establishing tactical wire (HOTLOOP) communications, maintaining radio listening silence on platoon FM nets, and performing “stand-to” procedures. here gta 5 news

Volcano System Maintenance Issue: Engineer Volcano crews frequently conduct inadequate preventive maintenance checks and services (PMCS).

Discussion: Vibration during cross-country travel in the M548 chassis often causes bolts, nuts, and electrical connections to loosen during movement. This can result in three types of failures: mechanical failure of the mounting hardware resulting in damage to the launcher or display control unit (DCU) as the launcher shifts; electrical connectivity failure between the DCU and the launcher panels; and connectivity failure between the launcher panels and the canisters.

Recommendation: Units should conduct daily PMCS according to Training Manual 9-1095-208-10-l, Operator s Manual for Dispenser, Mine, M139 w/Mounting Kits. Units should conduct combat checks according to Graphic Training Aid (GTA) 5-10-42, Volcano Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services, during extended hauls. Crews should conduct PMCS according to GTA 5-10-42 and conduct a full built-in test (BIT) on the DCU in the assault position before execution. At a minimum, crews should conduct daily inspections of all mounting hardware for tightness and conduct a daily BIT test, especially after cross-country movement.
