On December 16th, 2016, the film Rogue One: A Star Wars Story was released in the United States.[1] In the film, as the antagonists are under attack, the villain Orson Krennic (portrayed by Ben Mendelsohn) demands the deployment of more troops. He says, "Are we blind? Deploy the Garrison!" (shown below).

The prime source of conflict was the rashness and greed of the Twenty-first legion, who had stolen cash sent as payment to the garrison of a fort formerly defended by the Helvetians with their own troops and at their own expense. Angered, the Helvetians, intercepting letters in the name of the army in Germany being carried to the Pannonian legions, held the centurions and some of the soldiers in custody.
At the first shot, our reconnoitring party broke and fled toLille, carrying with them the panic that had seized them. However, the enemydid not deploy more than twelve hundred men of all arms and two pieces ofcannon, and I am confident that they had no more at that particular spot.Vainly did we try to stop our runaways; but the enemy did not advance much, andthe reserve, on being brought up, made a good stand.
The head of the column had just reached the Faubourg desMalades (a suburb of Lille), when I received a note from Miaczinski ordering meto stop wherever this note reached me, to provide refreshment for my men, andnot to leave them. They had just reached the glacis of the fortress. I orderedthem to face about, according to the regulations, and pile their arms. Novictuals ! I sent to Lille for some. The gates and barriers were shut, and thedrawbridges raised. This circumstance led me to the conclusion that somethingvery unusual was taking place in the town, seeing that the gates of a fortifiedtown are not shut, except for form's sake, on the arrival of a fresh garrison.The proximity of the enemy could not account for it, for we on the glacis werea goodly number of defenders. While I was discussing this strange receptionwith some of my officers, I was informed that a municipal official wished tosee me. I went to him, and found him in considerable agitation. He told me thatthe council, assembled at the town-hall, wished to see me. I answered byshowing him the note from the General, in which I was ordered not to leave mytroops; that I presumed that the object of this municipal invitation was toconcert measures for food and quarters; that the General was there as well asmy quartermasters, that they should address themselves to him; that I only heldthe command in his absence; that I would send a Captain in my place, who wouldbring me back his orders.
After this coup d'etat, trusting too implicitly uponthe affection of his army, he divided it into several columns, which were tomarch upon the capital from different quarters, and, wishing at the same timeto secure the northern strongholds, he ordered Miaczinski to take possession ofthem. The latter, who had a cause of complaint against the Commissioners, whohad treated him very abruptly at Orchies on the preceding evening, because adetachment that was to escort them was not ready at the moment they wished tostart, was enchanted at the prospect of having his revenge. He imparted hisorders and all that had happened to those who were about him, and one of these,St. Georges, his friend, accompanied by the courier who had brought Dumouriez'sorders to Miaczinski, started immediately for Lille and warned the authoritiesof the danger threatening their town, and all the others in the department.Such were the reasons that had decided them to shut their gates. PoorMiaczinski, urged by a double desire to avenge himself and to lose no time inexecuting his orders, hastened thither, and thus rushed blindly on his ruin. Hewas to have had an interview with the general officer in command of the place,but the latter, warned by the information of St. Georges, hastened to join thecivil authorities, who promptly took all the measures rendered necessary by thedifficult circumstances in which they were placed.
(NAVY TIMES 07 NOV 11) ... Joshua StewartNAVAL AIR STATION PATUXENT RIVER, Md.- If the Navy starts training scores of enlisted to fly unmanned aircraft, they may want to thank a 37-year old Texan.Senior Chief Aviation Electronics Technician (SW/AW) Stephen Diets is the only enlisted flying the MQ-8B Fire Scout, an unmanned helicopter. He's a test case - part of a push from former Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Gary Roughead to determine whether a commission is necessary to succeed in naval aviation's next chapter.But Diets isn't the first enlisted to fly an unmanned aerial vehicle. He and others have piloted the RQ-2A Pioneer, a small unmanned plane used for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions, which was in the fleet from 1986 to 2007.As an external pilot, he was responsible for takeoffs and landings; it's similar to flying a large remote-controlled airplane, he said.His career began with the H-60 Seahawk, the fleet's workhorse helicopter. Today, he's the fleet liaison for the Fire Scout program and advises engineers on improvements and operations. But he's also taking questions from Navy brass to help them decide whether enlisted should fly UAVs.Diets won't have any official say in the decision; he's merely providing leaders with his perspective, expertise and feedback. He believes that enlisted will not only make good UAV operators, but the country's fiscal constraints will make enlisted a more frugal choice to fly several types of unmanned systems.Just Another StudentBefore Diets took the Fire Scout's controls, he completed a 21-day course at a civilian flight school where he trained on Cessnas and earned a private pilot's license. After that, he and officer pilots from Air Test and Evaluation Squadron 1 completed a five-week Fire Scout course."They didn't treat me any different, and that was something I asked for from the get-go. I'll let them know if I'm having trouble with something, but don't extend my course out," he said.He headed to the frigate McInerney in spring 2010, during the last month of the ship's deployment for counter-narcotic operations in Latin America. It was the first time he would operate the Fire Scout at sea, and only one thing was on his mind."Don't screw it up," he said, laughing.He flew the aircraft once or twice on that deployment and spent the rest of his time training Seahawk maintainers on repairing the Fire Scout and assuring it was safe for flight. He later deployed with the frigate Halyburton in January for its seven-month deployment in 5th and 6th Fleet, including operations near Libya. That time, he spent more time at the controls.His work was identical to the work performed by officers - same missions, same procedures. They had a Northrop Grumman instructor on hand to help them with some of the UAV's operations that they hadn't fully mastered.With two Fire Scout deployments under his belt, and countless hours working on the Fire Scout, Diets said enlisted are capable of operating that UAV and others."I think we've proven that enlisted guys can operate Fire Scout and I would go even further to say [the Unmanned Combat Air System] coming up and [the Broad Area Maritime Surveillance aircraft]," he said, respectively referring to a UAV that will take off and land on carriers, and the Navy's version of the Global Hawk.Officials at Naval Air Forces and Naval Air Systems Command did not answer a list of questions about their deliberations on allowing enlisted to operate UAVs. However, previous statements about Diets' performance and the future of unmanned systems indicate that they're largely supportive of enlisted operators at the controls."I think Senior Chief Diets demonstrated an ability to do it," said Paul Achille, deputy program manager for the Fire Scout Program Office in an August interview.Beyond Diets, it shows that more enlisted can do it, he said.Rear Adm. William Shannon, the program executive officer for unmanned aviation and strike weapons, said "very, very capable enlisted Sailors" should eventually fly UAVs or he and others in his office have "absolutely failed in our jobs."Others, like Lawrence Schuette, director of innovation at the Office of Naval Research, said using enlisted is the only way to make unmanned systems affordable.Creating A UAV Career PathDiets said he thinks a new rating will be required for enlisted UAV operators, and those Sailors will be qualified to operate the Fire Scout as well as the broad-area maritime surveillance aircraft and the carrier-launched unmanned combat air system.A common control system that uses identical toggles for several types of UAVs will help make this possible. He said he feels that operators should be at least a second-tour, senior E-5.His background with the Pioneer and H-60s made him a good fit to operate the Fire Scout, he said.He doesn't recommend that future enlisted UAV operators go through the same training pipeline he completed. For one, his training process was compressed so he could be ready for a fast-approaching deployment. Also, enlisted operators will need supplemental training to make up for the tactical expertise their officer counterparts developed in the cockpit, he said.Beyond training, Sailors need to have certain skills, he said. The biggest is the ability to mentally visualize three-dimensional spaces to create an imaginary map while flying unmanned aircraft."Anybody could do it as long as they could mentally separate all of those things out. And motivation. This ain't easy. That last deployment was the most challenging deployment I've done in my 18 years," he said. 2ff7e9595c
