Operation Totalize
By early August 1944 the Germans fighting in Normandy had been worn down by the battles around Caen, while to the west, the American breakout was finally gaining momentum.Now was the time to launch II Canadian Corps south towards Falaise.With much of the German armour having been stripped away for the Mortain Counter-Attack, hopes ran high that the Corps, reinforced with British tanks, the 51st Highland and the Polish Armoured Divisions, would repeat the success of their predecessors in the Battle of Amiens. An innovative change of tactics to a night armoured assault and the conversion of seventy-two self-propelled guns to armoured personnel carriers for the accompanying infantry was very successful, but up against their implacable foes, 12th Hitlerjugend SS Panzer Division, the pause for bombing allowed Kurt Panzer' Meyer to deploy his division.Consequently, when the 4th Canadian and Polish Armoured Divisions were launched into their first battle they made frustratingly little progress.As the Canadians advanced over the following days, the battle degenerated into a costly fight for ground as the Hitlerjugend struggled to contain the inexperienced Poles and Canadians. Operation Totalize is renowned for the death of SS panzer Ace Michael Wittmann at the hands of Trooper Joe Ekins and the destruction of Worthington Force, the result of a navigational error.

Operation Mayhem
'Captures the confusion, black humour, raw courage and sheer exhilaration of combat brilliantly' THE TIMES'Read this account of his stint with the 26-man strong X Platoon in the sweltering jungle, living on grubs, outnumbered 80 to one, battling heavily armed rebels with bamboo sticks and home-made grenades, and you'll be asking the question...Why wasn't he given TWO MCs?' SUNDAY SPORT2,000 blood-crazed rebels. 26 elite British soldiers. One man's explosive true story. Airlifted into the heart of the Sierra Leone jungle in the midst of the bloody civil war in 2000, 26 elite operators from the secret British elite unit X Platoon were sent into combat against thousands of Sierra Leonean rebels. Notorious for their brutality, the rebels were manned with captured UN armour, machine-guns and grenade-launchers, while the men of X Platoon were kitted with pitiful supplies of ammunition, malfunctioning rifles, and no body armour, grenades or heavy weapons. Intended to last only 48 hours, the mission mutated into a 16-day siege against the rebels, as X Platoon were denied the back-up and air support they had been promised, and were forced to make their stand alone.The half-starved soldiers, surviving on bush tucker, fought with grenades made from old food-tins and defended themselves with barricades made of sharpened sticks. Sergeant Steve Heaney won the Military Cross for his initiative in taking command after the platoon lost their commanding officer.OPERATION MAYHEM recounts his amazing untold true story, full of the rough-and-ready humour and steely fortitude with which these elite soldiers carried out operations far into hostile terrain.

Constant load operation, on the other hand, refers to the continuous use of the equipment at a consistent level of activity once it has been initialized. This helps maintain the stability and reliability of the equipment during imaging procedures.

When is an operation referred to as a major operation?
An operation is referred to as a major operation when it involves significant risk, complexity, and potential impact on the patient's health. Major operations typically require general anesthesia and may involve extensive tissue manipulation, significant blood loss, and a longer recovery period. These procedures are often performed by specialized surgical teams in a hospital setting and may require a longer hospital stay for the patient. Examples of major operations include open heart surgery, organ transplants, and complex cancer surgeries.

Is the operation still in operation after the written exam?

The written exam is just one part of the overall process, and the operation continues to function and carry out its activities regardless of the exam. The exam may be a requirement for certain roles or responsibilities within the operation, but it does not impact the operation's ongoing activities.

What is the difference between continuous operation furnaces and timed operation?
Continuous operation furnaces run continuously without stopping, providing a constant and consistent output of heat or materials. Timed operation furnaces, on the other hand, operate on a set schedule or timer, running for a specific period of time before shutting off or going through a cooling cycle. Continuous operation furnaces are often used in industrial processes that require a steady flow of heat or materials, while timed operation furnaces are more suitable for processes that can be batched or scheduled at specific intervals.
