11th Hour (web series), Synopsis
The Aditya Group of Companies, which invented a source of clean energy and which is led by Aratrika Reddy (Tamannaah), is on the verge of being forced into bankruptcy as the result of a political conspiracy, with the company required to deposit more than Rs 9,000 crore to the Imperial Bank by 8 a.m. the next dawn to secure its salvation. Aratrika's ex-husband Siddharth Singh (Vamsi Krishna), competitor Rajvardhan Rathore (Shatru), Imperial Bank president Sundar Das (Srikanth Iyengar) and Prince Sadiq (Anirudh Balaji), a sheikh from Dubai, make financial proposals to Aratrika, who turns them all down and holds out hope for a miracle before sunrise to save the Aditya Group.

11th Hour (web series), Reception
Hemanth Kumar of Firstpost rated the series 2.5/5 and wrote: "11th Hour has scale, grandeur, and a solid premise but fails to keep one hooked to the story." While the motivations of the characters are established, Kumar felt that the narration was not compelling enough. A. Kameshwari in her The Indian Express review stated: "The makers of 11th Hour, a corporate drama, try too hard to make the series interesting but in vain." She felt that the audience could not connect with the character of Tamannaah as it was kept half baked.


11th Hour (web series), Reception
Times of India critic Sravan Vanaparthy rated 3 of 5 stars and wrote: "11th Hour is refreshing in the sense that it explores the trials and tribulations faced by a woman who’s looking to make it big in a man’s world." India Today editor Janani.K  called Tamannaah the saviour of "this bland thriller." "As a single mom, chairman of a company and caring daughter, Tamannaah has done her best. But, her efforts go waste as the writing lacks nuance," she added.


11th Hour Remnant Messenger
The 11th Hour Remnant Messenger was an antisemitic Christian identity group founded in Sandpoint, Idaho, by wealthy retired entrepreneurs Vincent Bertollini and Carl E. Story. They were located close to the Aryan Nations compound and cooperated with Aryan Nations members. Bertollini and Story chose Sandpoint because about 98% of the area's residents were non-Jewish whites.


11th Hour Remnant Messenger
Members of the group believed that non-Jewish white Europeans are the Israelites (the chosen people) described in the Bible, while people who are ethnically Jewish are descendants of Eve and Satan. They believed that non-whites are soulless. They printed large, elaborate, expensive posters depicting their tree of heredity for major ethnic groups and mailed it to many people living in the area.

The 11th Infantry Division "Brennero" (Italian: 11ª Divisione fanteria "Brennero") was a infantry division of the Royal Italian Army during World War II. The Brennero was classified as a mountain infantry division, which meant that the division's artillery was moved by pack mules instead of the horse-drawn carriages of line infantry divisions. Italy's real mountain warfare divisions were the six alpine divisions manned by Alpini mountain troops. The Brennero was named for the Brenner Pass between Italy and Austria. The division was mobilized in October 1939, demobilized in October, 1940, and mobilized again in December, 1940. It began the transformation to motorized division in February 1943, but the process was not complete when the division dissolved after the Armistice of Cassibile was announced on 8 September 1943.

11th Infantry Division (Belgium), World War II
11th Infantry Division became a general reserve of the Army. Leaving the organic III Corp, the 11th Infantry Division arrives at Berverlo Camp, where they will be stationed when the German attack begins.


11th Infantry Division (Belgium), World War II
The Beverlo Camp is north of the Albert canal, therefore, in front of the defensive perimeter, and in threat of attack by the ensuing German forces. Immediately starting the evacuation, with a small rearguard to delay the German attack, the 11th Infantry Division made its way to the Albert Canal.


11th Infantry Division (Belgium), World War II
The 11th Infantry Division was positioned at Diest, regrouping, when orders were given to go to the K-W line. By May 12, the Division, with all of its men from Camp Berverlo, arrive at Sint-Katelijne-Waver and position themselves east, west, and south.

After the collapse of the Albert Canal, II Corp has both the 6th and the 11th Infantry Divisions at the K-W line with 9th Infantry Division as reserve. No skirmishes in 11th Infantry Divisions sector have been determined. The Germans however, used their artillery to do damage on the roads leading out of the K-W Line, possibly trying to take out the 11th Infantry Divisions retreat path.


11th Infantry Division (Belgium), World War II
The K-W line was starting to collapse as the French and British forces are starting to abandon the line. Without outside support, the Belgians also had to fall back. The 11th Infantry Division made its way to Kluizen of the Ghent-Terneuzen Canal, where they set up a new defense. The division is of II Corp, along with 13th Infantry Division. After a German attack on the 13th Infantry Division came close to breaking a regiment, the northern flank of the 11th Infantry Division was in a panic. The reserves of the 11th Infantry Division were taken, and deployed north.


11th Infantry Division (Belgium), World War II
After the Allied forces in Flanders have been encircled, things have gone from bad to worse in Belgium. The German pressure steadily increased. By May 23rd, the 11th Infantry Division was stationed at Leie. The 11th Division manage to repulse a German attack, but were pushed back.


11th Infantry Division (Belgium), World War II
The 11th Infantry Division now is responsible for retaining a connection between them and the 12th Infantry Division. The Germans make sure to breach the connection by attacking with full force.

11th Infantry Division (Greece), History, Greco-Italian War
On 6 March, following an hour-long artillery barrage, four Italian battalions attacked the division's positions on Mali Spadarit, while another battalion attacked Height 245. The Italian objective was to capture these heights, which protected left flank of the Greek position on the Klisura Pass, on the same day. The attack failed, but was repeated on the next day, again with intensive artillery support, against the entire front of the 11th Division. The main Italian attack was again against Mali Spadarit, with supporting attacks on heights 931 and 845.

11th Infantry Division (India), Indo-Pakistani War of 1971
Despite the early gains, persistent air attacks by the Pakistan Air Force, supply and logistical problems and finally prolonged hesitation by the division halted the advance on the northern axis, before the troops reached Naya Chor. During this time, Pakistani troops were reinforced by 60 Brigade from 33 Division, which also took over the command of 55 Brigade. On the southern axis, 31 Brigade captured Chachra.

After the 1962 Sino-Indian War, the Indian army underwent a substantial increase in numbers and capability and the government reversed its position and the division was raised by utilising reserve  GOC, Major General Abdul Hamid Khan. The Division was then assigned to the defence of Lahore.

After this battle, the division was committed to the Khem Karan offensive, for which the Divisional HQ was given command of the 1st Armoured Division. The two formations successfully managed to capture Khem Karan, though further attacks by the 1st Armoured were checked by the Indians.


11th Infantry Division (Pakistan), 1965 War
At the same time as the fighting in Khem Karan, the Indian offensive towards Sialkot was making progress at the Battle of Chawinda and the 1st Armoured was withdrawn to reinforce the Pakistani forces in that sector. The 11th was forced to fall back to Khem Karan, where it withstood multiple attempts by the Indians to retake the town, however the ceasefire found the division in command of the town and several hundred square kilometres of Indian territory.


11th Infantry Division (Pakistan), 1971 War
Six years later, the division once again went into action in the 1971 war, and in a repeat of the experience in 1965, the Division crossed the Radcliffe Line, the International Border, once more. 106 Brigade succeeded in overwhelming the resistance of the Indian 15th Battalion, Punjab Regiment (35 Infantry Brigade, 14th Infantry Division) to take significant ground near Hussainiwala, thereby controlling a key dam and threatening the border town of Ferozepur.
