	Chinemys nigricans (Kwangtung River Turtle) Care – Darrell Senneke
		One of its common names stems from it being found in the Province of Kwangtung in Southern China, the other common name, the Redneck Pond Turtle, is descriptive as the neck of the turtle appears to be a dark reddish brown.
		For adult Kwangtung turtles we advise canister filters as they are easily cleaned and provide for excellent water quality, if kept in a pond a more typical pond filter - oversized to deal with the fact that turtles produce more waste than fish - should be used.
		Kwangtung turtles are often seen basking on logs or rocks in nature.

	The Soviet Army Offensive: Manchuria, 1945
		The Japanese Kwangtung Army faced severe shortages in all areas and was in the middle of the redeployment of her defensive forces when the Soviets attacked.

		For example, the Kwangtung Army's combat guide stated that for defense against tanks, the policy was suicide attack, "The essence of anti-tank combat lies in the suicide assault by the entire force; each man must destroy at least one tank." [18-ii] As mentioned earlier, this "special" attack hindered the Soviet advance in some areas.
