That was the official name for the operation.

It was weird seeing that they'd made trading cards. I don't think I was on one personally, but still...



IIRC, at first it was Desert Shield.

President of Chad Idriss Déby was killed when leading troops in battle against rebels in northern Chad.

My question is; before Déby, who was the last head of state (king, president, dictator, whatever) of a recognized, sovereign territory who was killed in battle? The only I could find was El-Ouali Mustapha Sayed in 1976 from Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (unrecognized state) and a bunch of medieval kings.

Edited for clarity.

I hear the motto of the Chadian army is: viens à moi mon frère

Henry II of France died in a jousting accident during a festival celebrating a peace treaty.

I swear I remember that being mentioned in some sort of Nostradamus special that someone in my household taped back in the 80s.

Selective availability, the system that introduced artificial error to civilian receivers and restricted high-precision GPS to military receivers, was disabled in 2000. Newer (Block III) GPS satellites aren’t even capable of turning it back on.

https://www.gps.gov/systems/gps/modernization/sa/

It’s possible to get centimeter-level accuracy out of GPS with differential systems, that basically measure local error caused by things like ionospheric weather and provide a feed of corrections. But, to measure that error, you need to have a fixed and well-defined reference point in the first place - and it has to be relatively close, or you lose accuracy. So it’s not very useful for defining borders in the middle of nowhere.

Some of those units that are accurate to within centimetres are also expensive as all hell. Like the average person out camping or backpacking isn't buying a GPS thats in the tens of thousands of dollars range.
