United Kingdom is the fourth album by American Music Club. It was recorded primarily for the UK, where the band had a larger following than in their native USA, and consists of a mixture of studio and live tracks. The LP was produced by Tom Mallon who also produced the band's previous three LPs, The Restless Stranger, Engine and California. United Kingdom contained the song "Kathleen", the most obvious of many that Mark Eitzel has composed about his long-term muse, Kathleen Burns.
The Second Army was part of the British Army formed on 26 December 1914, when the British Expeditionary Force was split in two due to becoming too big to control its subordinate formations. The army controlled both III Corps and IV Corps. Second Army spent most of the war positioned around the Ypres salient, but was redeployed to Italy as part of the Italian Expeditionary Force between November 1917 and March 1918.
The Russian 2nd Army (2-я армия, 2А) was an army-level command of the Imperial Russian Army in World War I. It was formed just prior to the outbreak of hostilities from the units of Warsaw Military District and was mobilized in August 1914. The army was effectively destroyed at Battle of Tannenberg in August 1914. However, it was rebuilt soon thereafter and fought until almost the end of the war.
The field headquarters of the 2nd Army was formed from the staff of the Warsaw Military District in July 1914. Towards the end of 1917, the staff was based in Slutsk, Belarus. It was dissolved in early 1918.
In the beginning of World War I, the army included the 1st, VI, XIII, XV and XXIII army corps.
The Japanese 2nd Army(第2軍,Dai-ni gun) was an army of the Imperial Japanese Army. It was raised and demobilized on four separate occasions.
History

The Second Army of the Ottoman Empire was one of the field armies of the Ottoman Army. It was formed in the late 19th century during Ottoman military reforms.

Tier one or tier two force - is the British Army still among the best?
A retired commander has told Forces News the British Army would "struggle" to qualify as a Tier Two fighting force and "needs at least five, and probably 10, years to get fit for purpose".
It comes after reports claimed a senior US General had told the UK Defence Secretary the British Army was no longer considered among the world's top fighting forces.
But how do you know what tier a fighting force is and what impact does it have? Forces News takes a look in this video.

Second flight evacuating British nationals has landed amid Sudan ceasefire | ITV News
The first two flights taking British civilians out of Sudan have landed in Cyprus, and the prime minister claims that "many more" are due to take off into tomorrow.
Rishi Sunak said he could not "guarantee" the long-term safety of the air route being used, given the volatility of the ceasefire, but other options were being considered.
It comes amid growing criticism of the government's failure to help civilians trapped in the country as violence escalates - with one teacher telling ITV News she relied on help from the French embassy.
Around 40 people boarded a coach in Cyprus after the first plane had landed but, while more evacuees are expected overnight, it is estimated 4,000 UK citizens are in Sudan.

US general warns British Army no longer top-level fighting force, defence sources reveal
A senior US general has privately told Defence Secretary Ben Wallace and other officials the British Army is no longer regarded as a top-level fighting force, military sources have revealed.
They said this decline in war-fighting capability - following decades of cuts to save money - needed to be reversed faster than planned in the wake of Russia's war in Ukraine.
"Bottom line... it's an entire service unable to protect the UK and our allies for a decade," one of the defence sources said.

BRITISH PATHÉ'S STORY
Before television, people came to movie theatres to watch the news. British Pathé was at the forefront of cinematic journalism, blending information with entertainment to popular effect. Over the course of a century, it documented everything from major armed conflicts and seismic political crises to the curious hobbies and eccentric lives of ordinary people. If it happened, British Pathé filmed it.
Now considered to be the finest newsreel archive in the world, British Pathé is a treasure trove of 85,000 films unrivalled in their historical and cultural significance.
British Pathé also represents the Reuters historical collection, which includes more than 136,000 items from the news agencies Gaumont Graphic (1910-1932), Empire News Bulletin (1926-1930), British Paramount (1931-1957), and Gaumont British (1934-1959), as well as Visnews content from 1957 to the end of 1984. All footage can be viewed on the British Pathé website. https://www.britishpathe.com/
This video captures the shelling and eventual fall of Berlin, Germany to the Allied British forces in 1945 along with several shots of a British soldier doing his best imitation of Adolf Hitler.

A senior US general has privately told Defence Secretary Ben Wallace and other officials the British Army is no longer regarded as a top-level fighting force, military sources have revealed.
They said this decline in war-fighting capability - following decades of cuts to save money - needed to be reversed faster than planned in the wake of Russia's war in Ukraine.
"Bottom line... it's an entire service unable to protect the UK and our allies for a decade," one of the defence sources said.

A retired commander has told Forces News the British Army would "struggle" to qualify as a Tier Two fighting force and "needs at least five, and probably 10, years to get fit for purpose".
It comes after reports claimed a senior US General had told the UK Defence Secretary the British Army was no longer considered among the world's top fighting forces.
But how do you know what tier a fighting force is and what impact does it have? Forces News takes a look in this video.

The first two flights taking British civilians out of Sudan have landed in Cyprus, and the prime minister claims that "many more" are due to take off into tomorrow.
Rishi Sunak said he could not "guarantee" the long-term safety of the air route being used, given the volatility of the ceasefire, but other options were being considered.
It comes amid growing criticism of the government's failure to help civilians trapped in the country as violence escalates - with one teacher telling ITV News she relied on help from the French embassy.
Around 40 people boarded a coach in Cyprus after the first plane had landed but, while more evacuees are expected overnight, it is estimated 4,000 UK citizens are in Sudan.

Former Secretary General of NATO Lord Robertson says the British Armed Forces might have been weakened recently, but they're still a "formidable force".
He warned the British Army's capabilities will be eroded and diminish if present cutbacks take place.

Faction: The British Army
Before the war had started, Britain had a small professional army, sacrificing manpower for superior mobility and technology over the enemy. There was also a Territorial Army which was poorly trained and supplied.
