A self-defense force (SDF) is, in its stricter terms, a defense force composed by the local inhabitants of a territory joint together in order to protect themselves, their territory, their property, or their laws. The term, however, has come to refer to three different subjects in modern times:
local defense forces under the sole and exclusive control of subnational authorities, in comparison to the typical armed forces that report to national authorities, or national guards that report to subnational authorities but may come into national authority in times of crisis.
Self-defense forces are organized, in theory, as a force that can react quicker to subnational matters in comparison to national armed forces. In practice, however, they tend to be loosely organized, untrained, and barely funded. Most of its member tend to be former veterans and subnational civilians willing to defend their subnational territory by force.
The Japan Ground Self-Defense Force(JGSDF; Japanese: 陸上自衛隊;,Rikujō Jieitai), is the main branch of the Japan Self-Defense Forces responsible for land-based military operations. It is the de factoarmy of Japan. The JGSDF was created on July 1, 1954. It is sometimes also referred to as the GSDF.
New military guidelines, announced in December 2010 will direct the Jieitai away from its Cold War focus on the Soviet Union to a focus on China, especially regarding the dispute over the Senkaku Islands.
The largest of the three services of the Japan Self-Defense Forces, the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force is tasked with maintaining internal security in Japan and operates under the command of the chief of the ground staff, based in the city of Ichigaya, Shinjuku, Tokyo.
The present chief of the ground staff is General Kiyofumi Iwata (Japanese: 岩田 清文).
The JGSDF numbered around 150,000 soldiers in 2008. As of 2010, the number remained the same at approximately 150,000 personnel.
The Japan Pavilion is one of the original World Showcase pavilions and had been in planning since the late 1970s. Many attractions have been proposed for the pavilion and one show building was built, but left unused. Meet the World was one planned attraction and was a clone of the attraction Meet the World that was once at Tokyo Disneyland. But because management thought that the Japanese film's omission of World War II might upset many Veterans, it was dropped. The show was so close to opening that the show building and rotating platform was built, but not used.
For years, Imagineers have considered building an indoor roller coaster attraction based on Matterhorn Bobsleds from Disneyland but themed to Japan's Mount Fuji inside a replica of Mount Fuji. At one point, Godzilla or a large lizard attacking guests in their cars was considered. Fujifilm originally wanted to sponsor the ride in the early 1990s, but Kodak, a major Epcot sponsor, convinced Disney to decline the sponsorship. Luckily, the Matterhorn derived design elements survived to be incorporated into Expedition Everest at Disney's Animal Kingdom Park. Another proposed attraction was a walk-through version of "Circle-Vision", in which guests would board and walk through a Shinkansen (bullet train) and look through windows (actually film screens) that showcase Japan's changing landscapes. The train would have shaken and moved like a train traveling through the countryside.
Part III of the book has the account of Lemuel Gulliver's visit to Japan, the only real location visited by him. It is used as a venue for Swift's satire on the actions of Dutch traders to that land. His description reflects the state of European knowledge of the country in the 17th and early 18th centuries, and the tensions due to commercial rivalry between the English and the Dutch at that time.
Description
Japan is shown on the map at the beginning of part III, which also shows the island of "Yesso" (i.e. Hokkaido), "Stats island" (Iturup) and "Companys Land" (Urup) to the north. The map also marks the Vries Strait and Cape Patience, though this is shown on the northeast coast of Yesso, rather than as part of Sakhalin, which was little known in Swift’s time.
On the island of Japan itself the map shows "Nivato" (Nagato), Yedo, "Meaco" (Kyoto), Inaba and "Osacca" (Osaka)
The text describes Gulliver's journey from Luggnagg, which took fifteen days, and his landing at "Xamoschi" (i.e. Shimosa} which lies "on the western part of a narrow strait leading northward into a long arm of the sea, on the northwest part of which Yedo, the metropolis stands".
This description matches the geography of Tokyo Bay, except that Shimosa is on the north, rather than the western shore of the bay.
A yakuza, in love with a TV reporter, comes to Barcelona, Spain, where she's making a reportage on what's the foreigners' idea of the Japanese people, and how Japanese people see themselves; during her speech, she makes a parallel between modern day Japan and the ancient Carthage, saying that the Carthaginians were wiped out by the Romans because of the same attitude Japanese people have nowadays, and because economic superiority brings war, and in the end loses to military strength. Suddenly there's an earthquake, and the ghosts of the Carthaginians bring the group (the two yakuza, the TV reporter and some university students) to the future, when the sea level has increased and all the islands which compose the Japanese archipelago have been submerged; the Japanese people have thus emigrated in the other countries, and they're now scattered around the world, and in particular in Europe, where after the cataclysm a dictatorship has been established, they've become slaves and bandits. Japan is long gone, and Japanese people are lost and oppressed; but among the newcomers, desperate of what they learn, the yakuza, who mostly wishes to protect the woman he dearly loves, has a dream: Japan can be refounded, if the Japanese people come together to fight for it.
Japan Self-Defense Force - The Army That Doesn't Fight
After world war 2 Japan was not allowed to have a military force, only a national police force. With the growing communist threat in east Asia, that national police force grew into Japanese Self Defence Force (JSDF), an entity designed solely for protection of Japanese territory. It didn't take long for JSDF to start growing both in size and influence and slowly, but surely, become one of the top 10 strongest military forces in the world.

Putin Briefed on Ukraine's Surprise Incursion Into Russia
President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine has unexpectedly given rise to a Ukrainian intervention across the border into Russia, to the evident embarrassment of the Kremlin leader. #putin #russia #politics #ukraine
The incursion by as many as 1,000 Ukrainian troops into the Kursk region that’s now in its third day caught out the Russian military. It’s the first time since World War II that another country’s army has invaded Russia.
A grim-faced Putin summoned his army and security-service chiefs for an explanation yesterday. Furious Russian military bloggers accused top officials of staggering incompetence.
European gas prices rose amid reports of fighting near a key Russian station on the last remaining pipeline route to Europe via Ukraine. So far, gas continues to flow. #putin #...

New UK government launches review of armed forces
Britain's new government has launched a "root and branch" review of the country's armed forces. Despite a tight squeeze on public spending, the new prime minister has promised a "cast iron'" commitment, to spend 2.5 per cent of gross domestic product on defence and maintain the country's nuclear capability. From recruitment to commitment, some defence experts warn Britain no longer has a "tier one" military force, and there are no quick fixes. CNA's John Bevir reports.

The Stormer is the UK Armed Forces' very short-range air defence system.
It was developed in Belfast in the 1990s and can fire up to eight Starstreak HVM missiles from its launcher while carrying a further nine inside.
Operated by a three-person crew it is fitted with a roof-mounted air defence alerting device, providing target detection and prioritisation.

President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine has unexpectedly given rise to a Ukrainian intervention across the border into Russia, to the evident embarrassment of the Kremlin leader. #putin #russia #politics #ukraine
The incursion by as many as 1,000 Ukrainian troops into the Kursk region that’s now in its third day caught out the Russian military. It’s the first time since World War II that another country’s army has invaded Russia.
A grim-faced Putin summoned his army and security-service chiefs for an explanation yesterday. Furious Russian military bloggers accused top officials of staggering incompetence.
European gas prices rose amid reports of fighting near a key Russian station on the last remaining pipeline route to Europe via Ukraine. So far, gas continues to flow. #putin #russia #politics #ukraine

Combat Camera, eli taistelukamerayksikkö kuvaa puolustusvoimien toimintaa kaikissa olosuhteissa. COMCAM-kuvaajat taistelevat painopisteen joukoissa, jotta puolustusvoimat voi välittää kuvaa suoraan tapahtumien keskeltä. COMCAM on vahva informaatio-operaatioiden kyky.
Kuvaajat ovat media-ammattilaisia, joille annetaan monipuolinen taistelukoulutus. COMCAM-yksikkö valitsee vuosittain 6-10 kuvausammattilaista vaativaan varusmieskoulutukseen. Palveluksen läpikäyneet sijoitetaan sodanajan COMCAM-tehtäviin.
The Combat Camera Unit documents all aspects of the Finnish Defence Forces. A COMCAM soldier films, photographs, and fights with the unit they are embedded in, so that the Defence Forces can utilize the material. COMCAM is a strong part of information warfare.
COMCAM soldiers are professionals in the media field, who receive diverse military training. Combat Camera recruits 6-10 Conscripts per year to fulfill their national service in one of the most challenging service branches. When mustered out the conscripts are placed in the reserves, with Combat Camera as their war time role.

Britain's new government has launched a "root and branch" review of the country's armed forces. Despite a tight squeeze on public spending, the new prime minister has promised a "cast iron'" commitment, to spend 2.5 per cent of gross domestic product on defence and maintain the country's nuclear capability. From recruitment to commitment, some defence experts warn Britain no longer has a "tier one" military force, and there are no quick fixes. CNA's John Bevir reports.

After world war 2 Japan was not allowed to have a military force, only a national police force. With the growing communist threat in east Asia, that national police force grew into Japanese Self Defence Force (JSDF), an entity designed solely for protection of Japanese territory. It didn't take long for JSDF to start growing both in size and influence and slowly, but surely, become one of the top 10 strongest military forces in the world.

Japan has just made an historic shift: In December, Tokyo announced a doubling of its defence budget by 2027, the first time this has happened since World War II. The Japanese are wary of China and North Korea.

Footage includes:
A live-fire training with the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force and U.S. Marines as part of Exercise Iron Fist. Iron Fist is an amphibious exercise that brings together U.S. Marines and sailors and soldiers from the JGSDF, to promote military interoperability and hone individual and small-unit skills through challenging, complex and realistic training.
Sniper training and firing mortar systems during exercise Northern Viper. The Marines and JGSDF worked together to strengthen their knowledge of the different methods of firing mortar systems.
Training like this enhanced the service members joint-capabilities and allowed them to share different techniques and tactics. Northern Viper is a large scale exercise that has many bilateral training opportunities that help strengthen the capabilities of the United States and the Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force

A self-defense force (SDF) is, in its stricter terms, a defense force composed by the local inhabitants of a territory joint together in order to protect themselves, their territory, their property, or their laws. The term, however, has come to refer to three different subjects in modern times:
local defense forces under the sole and exclusive control of subnational authorities, in comparison to the typical armed forces that report to national authorities, or national guards that report to subnational authorities but may come into national authority in times of crisis.
Self-defense forces are organized, in theory, as a force that can react quicker to subnational matters in comparison to national armed forces. In practice, however, they tend to be loosely organized, untrained, and barely funded. Most of its member tend to be former veterans and subnational civilians willing to defend their subnational territory by force.

The Stormer is the UK Armed Forces' very short-range air defence system.
It was developed in Belfast in the 1990s and can fire up to eight Starstreak HVM missiles from its launcher while carrying a further nine inside.
Operated by a three-person crew it is fitted with a roof-mounted air defence alerting device, providing target detection and prioritisation.
