Afternoon. The place? The United Press offices in Paris, France. The man, Boyd Lewis, European news manager of the United Press. The action? Hello? That's you, Lewis. Oh, hello, Alan. You've got exactly 15 minutes to meet me at La Boujée Airport. Can you make it? Right away.  Never mind. You're going on an important out-of-time assignment. Shake a leg. Okay. Oh, this is it. Say, Joe, stand by on a 24-hour alert and go further notice. On my arrival at the airport I ran into 15 other war correspondents. Representing various world press services, newspapers and radio. Army officials hurriedly crowded us into a big Douglas C-47. And soon we were flying over the rooftops of Paris, heading east. The nature of our mission was soon disclosed, and we were told to gather around an army official in the waste of a speeding plane. We are going on a mission to cover the signing of peace. Now, wait a minute. Wait a minute. You represent the press of the world. This story is off the record until the respective heads of allied governments announce the fact of the world. I therefore pledge each and every one of you, on your honor, not to communicate the results of this conference or the fact of its existence, until it is released by Supreme Headquarters of the Allied Expeditionary Force. I reiterate, this story you are going to cover is top secret. By top secret, the Army man meant that the story was in the highest confidential category. None of the correspondents in the plane raised an objection to this pledge, although one was later to violate it. At any rate, our plane landed us Sunday afternoon at Rans, the advanced headquarters of the Supreme Allied Commander, General Dwight D. Eisenhower. There, the Army man filled us in on what had transpired before our arrival. All right, boys, here's the setup. Actual negotiations for the surrender of Germany began yesterday, Saturday, when Admiral Friedeberg and his aide arrived in Rans by plane. The German emissary was tired and depressed. I have had little sleep during the past ten days, sir. I would like to wash up. Orderly! Yes, sir. Escort the German emissaries to their billets. Yes, sir. This way. Admiral Friedeberg hummed softly while he bathed his face and hands, but his aide was nervous. They remained alone until five-twenty o'clock Saturday afternoon, and they were taken before Eisenhower's chief of staff, General Walter Bedell Smith. What are your terms? Unconditional surrender. All German forces to remain in their present positions. All German air and sea craft must remain at their present stations. The high command of the German Army must guarantee to forward and enforce the execution of all orders of the Allied command. I beg of you, many Germans will be killed by the Russians unless they are permitted to surrender directly to the Allies and the West. We are not prepared to discuss anything, but simultaneous surrender to the Allies of the East and the West. But the German people think of the hardships they will suffer. The German people are the enemies of the Allies until they surrender. Go on. After your surrender, the Allies will be guided by the dictates of humanity. Do you possess the proper credentials to negotiate for the German high command? No, I am not prepared. Then you must forward immediately these two Allied proposals to your superior Admiral Danitz. Aren't the proposals... First, the Jubion power to surrender all theaters. Or second, that Admiral Danitz sent his chief of staff to surrender in chief of the German Army, Navy and Air Forces with the necessary authority. It will take some time. You must realize that. If the terms are not signed by midnight Sunday, the Allied lines will be closed 48 hours from that time. 48 hours? The German emissary acted immediately. He dispatched a message to Dernott's by British courier through the confused northern lines. The next morning, Sunday, dawn full of portent, we dragged on with our afternoon arrival at Renz. Having covered every phase of the European war for the United Press, I could hardly contain myself while waiting for the German reply. It came precisely at 5.08 p.m. Sunday when a plane landed at the Renz airport. Permit me to introduce the new German emissary, Colonel General Gustav Yodl, chief of staff for the German high command. Yahl. This way. Yodl returned the salute stiffly and unsmilingly. Then he walked arrogantly to an American staff car, which sped him to General Eisenhower's headquarters in Renz. Before we begin negotiations, I wonder if I might... Certainly! Already! American soldiers escorted General Yodl in his aid to the billet of the first German emissary, Admiral Friedeberg. The admiral opened the door of his quarters, took one look at the grim-faced Yodl and exclaimed, Aha! Don't cop! A few minutes later, Friedeberg emerged and requested a map of Europe. Yodl placed the floor. We correspondents were watching Yodl. He was the man of authority, the man empowered to lay Germany's surrender on the line. His first opportunity came at 6.15 p.m. Sunday, when he was received by Allied General Smith and strong. I cannot guarantee that my orders to the German army and the field will be carried out. The refusal of sign means the Allies will resume operations against Germany. Then I must telegraph field marshal Keitel of the alternative you present me. The American generals conferred with Yodl for one hour and five minutes. And then the door opened. Send for the Russian representative, General Sushlaparov. Yes, sir. Hurry! Shortly after 9 o'clock that night, Sunday, the Germans retired to their billet. But the message to Keitel was on its way, with the Allied ultimatum, sign or face a resumption of hostilities. And the answer was not long and coming. It was a round midnight. Well, Yodl, what does it say? Do we sign or do we...? Keitel says we sign! At 2 o'clock, Monday morning, staff cars began to arrive at General Eisenhower's headquarters. We realized then that the last act of the drama was about to begin. Yes, about to begin in a schoolhouse in Rands. The Germans, ironically, had used it as supreme headquarters during their occupation. And our own General Eisenhower made it his headquarters after moving from Versailles several months ago. And at 2.29 a.m., the first of the Allied representatives entered one of the classrooms. I recognize most of them, although an army man pointed out the major actors in this drama as they entered. Over there is left-handed General Sir Frederick Morgan, standing next to General Savet. Savet is signing for France, isn't he? That's right. And General Sushlaparov to the right is signing for the Russians. Where is Eisenhower's representative? General Bedell Smith? He'll be in shortly. By the way, did you know that General Eisenhower himself is here? I think he'll show up. Sure. He'll get into the end of it, I bet. See, Alan, what time is it? Uh, she's... 2.31. Oh. Here comes General Smith. Who was signing for the German side? General General Siotl. Yeah. There are four copies to be signed. Here are the documents. History and the making happening before our eyes, marking the end of an era of terror and bloodletting. General Smith quickly affixed his signature for the British and Americans. Then he passed copies of the terms from the French General Savet on his right to the Russian General Sushlaparov on his left. The documents were then placed under the steely eyes of Yodel. The German, hesitating momentarily, seized the pen and scratched the word Yodel on the four documents one after another. It was the end. The German leader, his age jumped up. He glanced at the grim faces of the allied leaders. He gripped the edge of his chair. I would like to say a word, here, General. With his signature, the German people, the German armed forces are, for better or worse, delivered into the victor's hands. In this war, which has lasted for more than five years, both have achieved and suffered more than perhaps any other people in the world. In this hour, I can only express the hope that the victors will treat them with generosity. You will meet with me at 10 o'clock Monday morning to arrange for German liaison officers to carry out the surrender and disarmament orders. Yeah, Herr General. We watched American officers march the Germans down the corridor to a room where General Eisenhower was waiting. Herr General, do you understand the terms you were to carry out? Yeah. We do. We will carry them out. That is all. Yeah, Herr General. The Germans retired to their billet with the death knell of Nazism ringing in their ears. Unconditional surrender. Unconditional surrender of all German armed forces on land, sea, and in the air. The most complete and resounding defeat in the history of the world. The words of General of the Army is Eisenhower. Just a few minutes ago at this table, Germany surrendered unconditionally its forces on land, and sea, and in the air. Germany has been thoroughly whipped.

Hello everyone, my name is Mariela and today I'm going to be showing you how to place a limit order on the CNC markets platform. So a limits order is an order to enter the market at a better price than the prevailing market price. As the name suggests, this order places a limit on the price you would accept to enter into a trade. These orders can be placed at any time whether the market is closed or open but will only be executed once the market is open. So once you've got your order ticket up here, you can choose whether you'd like to sell or buy. You would then input your steak size. Over here to the right you'll see a drop-down menu. If you choose limit order, you'll then see two boxes appear. This first one is the price you specify that you'd like to enter into the market tab and this button to the right says GTC. That stands for good till cancelled meaning that if it is good till cancelled, it will remain in your order tab until you choose to either cancel it or amend the date. If you would however like it to expire a certain date, click the drop-down arrow and you can choose a date for it to remain in your order tab. If we choose the 19th and then press place by limit order, this will go into your order tab and it will expire if the price you specified hasn't been hit on the 19th. That will then disappear from your order tab. However, if the price is hit before the 19th, that order will then jump into your positions tab and turn into a running open position. That's all from me today. If you have any other questions or queries, please feel free to look into our live help section of the platform. Thank you.


So my position is one of the instructors and the instructor training company. I work inside the dojo and we teach the recruits to make map the Marine Corps Marshmallow Program. So what is make map is a program that was implemented in the Marine Corps in order for us to be that much more lethal with whatever weapon that may be presented and no weapon then you know we use our fists and handle business and in those environments. So today we're going to go over banded techniques for the recruits of Echo Company. They'll learn the fundamentals here. A few techniques for the 10 belt syllabus. This is important for them to know for their tests. Then once they pass their tests and they go on to move on up north, graduate and then follow on with their trainings after.

This diorama was built in 1946 depicting the Springfield Armory at its heyday during World War II. We use this map every single day to give visitors an idea of just how expansive the Armory really is and that it's not just this one building that we're in today. Not only does it show the breadth of the scope of the Armory, it also shows an image of what life is like here, not just for the workers who came in every day but for the people who actually lived on the campus. The commanding officer, the junior officers, quarters, the pools, the tennis courts all here on this wonderful map. So we hope this summer you get out to your national parks and map it and write out.


And that sheep remained in the confession box for the entire Easter Monday Mass. Wait, I'm just getting word of breaking news coming from Dublin's O'Connell Street where a group of men have seized the general post office. Our reporter, Dara, is at the scene. Dara? Joe, I'm standing here outside the GPO which is 100% real and definitely not a green screen where a group of men allegedly led by one Patrick Henry Pierce have read out a document proclaiming Ireland as a sovereign nation. We're independent now. Anis, Marjel, Gwyl, Eirin, Inesir, Stodd, Tomas, Abelthe, Anouk, Iainov, Inarchanga, Dukesuk. Is that Irish, Joe? Can you not understand it? No, unfortunately all culture has been mercilessly beaten out of me by the blackened tans. It's ludicrous. Almost as ludicrous as a television broadcast in the year 1916. So, can you describe the appearance of this poor Pierce character? Er, yeah, he looks like this. He always looks to the left? Apparently every documented image of this guy is a side profile. Ah, yeah, yeah, I see it now. Must be his more photogenic side. Anything else, Dara? Well, these rebels have just seized several major buildings within Dublin City, including the Royal Army barracks, the Four Courts and Bolen's Bakery Mill. I understand the udders, but why do the rebels need a bakery? I suppose the preparation for uprising against the British Empire would leave anyone with a hankering for baked goods. Sorry, Dara, we're going to have to stop you there and switch over to our reporter Efra O'Connor with more developments on Moor Street, Efra. The uprising is certainly making its presence felt. We have to heed the safety messages. Remain in the safety of your homes. Guns are blazing here and Moor Street is in chaos. Don't make unnecessary journeys. Don't take risks on treacherous roads. Incredibly, the fearless street traders here are still selling apples and oranges for for a euro. I'm baffled that TV news are not concerned for this reporter's safety. We are doing everything we can to ensure your safety, Efra. Don't worry. Trains have stopped running, posts cannot be delivered, and the offices of the Irish Independent, the country's largest newspaper, are destroyed, leaving the Irish Times as our only other source of news. Oh, not a Unionist paper. Did you know that the first shots fired in the rising took place in County Leash? The night before the rebels took their positions. The biggest piece of news to me here is that Leash is still classified as a county. Also, did you know that the rebels were technically responsible for the world's first ever non-direct radio broadcast? Until 1916, signals were directed to a specific receiving station. So just to throw a signal aimlessly into the atmosphere was a radical concept. I'm going to have to stop you there. We have Dara now with more. Joe, I'm outside St. Stephen's Green, which has been seized by a woman by the name of Constance Mark of the... Dara? Christ, that's a lot of syllables. Anyway, I'm with an actual rebel of the rising here with me now. This is Danny Quinn. Danny, how are you? Good, yeah. There's a bit of a foggy Jew in the air, but the wind is mild and conditions are good for an uprising. Absolutely. Do you know? Do the public know what's going on right now? I'm sure they think the Germans are invading us. A German invasion? Well, when do bad things ever happen in Germany? Sure, didn't we ask the Germans for arms and all. Where are those arms now, Danny? Oh, the English song, the ship carrying them. England, sinking all of the fun. Anyway, that's all from us. Back to you in the studio, Joe. Oh, those rebels. Well, that's all from us. I'm sure this whole rebellion, Malaki, will blow over by morning. Till then, take care.
