The Battle of Mindanao was fought by United States forces and allied Filipino guerrillas against the Japanese from 10 March - 15 August 1945 on the island of Mindanao in the Philippines in a series of actions officially designated as Operation VICTOR V.
 It was part of the campaign to liberate the Philippines during World War II.
 The battle was waged to complete the recapture of the southernmost portions of the archipelago.
The Kedatuan of Dapitan was an ancient Philippine polity once based at Bohol at Tagbilaran Strait.
 Bohol's first indigenous people settled in the Anda peninsula.
 These people came from northeast Mindanao.
 These people were responsible for the Anda petrographs which are one of the most important indigenous rock writing in the country.
 Around the 12th century, a group of people from Northern Mindanao settled in the strait between mainland Bohol and the island of Panglao.
 Those people came from a nation in northern Mindanao called Lutao (probably the animist kingdom of what will soon be the Islamic Lanao).
 Those people established the Kedatuan of Dapitan in western Bohol because the true indigenous people of Bohol in the Anda peninsula and nearby areas were not open to them, forcing them to establish settlement in the western part of the island.
 The kedatuan was first built with hardwood on the soft seabed.
 It engaged it trade with nearby areas and some Chinese merchants.
 The Jesuit Alcina tells tales about a rich nation he called the 'Venice of the Visayas', pointing to the Kedatuan of Dapitan at that time.
 The Jesuit also tells of a princess named Bugbung Hamusanum, whose beauty caused her suitor, Datu Sumangga, to raid parts of southern China to win her hand.
 By 1563, before the full Spanish colonization agenda came to Bohol, the Kedatuan of Dapitan was at war with the Sultanate of Ternate in the Moluccas (who were also raiding the Rajahnate of Butuan).
 At the time, Dapitan was ruled by two brothers named Dalisan and Pagbuaya.
 The Ternateans at the time were allied to the Portuguese.
 Dapitan was destroyed and Datu Dalisan was killed in battle.
 His brother, Datu Pagbuaya, together with his people fled back to Mindanao and established a new Dapitan in the northern coast of the Zamboanga peninsula.
 The new Dapitan eventually was incorporated by the Spanish.
 Pagbuaya's son, Manooc was among those who sided with the Spanish.
 He converted to Christianity and aided the Spaniards in the conquest of Islamic Manila and the Camarines area in Luzon.
 The people of Dapitan also assisted the Spanish in the conquest of Northern Mindanao.
 Eventually, the Dapitans took their vengeance against the Ternateans when Manooc's cousin, Laria, guided the Spanish in their invasion of the Moluccas (Ternate).
Ouvrage Otterbiel forms part of the Maginot Line in the Fortified Sector of Rohrbach, Sub-sector of Bitche, and is located on the "Camp de Bitche" of the French Army.
 It is located between "gros ouvrage" Schiesseck and "petit ouvrage" Grand Hohekirkel.
 Part of the Fortified Sector of Rohrbach, the "petit ouvrage" comprises four combat blocks and an entry block.
 Due to budget restrictions, a planned flanking infantry block was never constructed.
 Otterbiel saw no significant action in the Battle of France, and limited action during the 1944/45 Lorraine Campaign.
 It was renovated for use during the Cold War.
 Otterbiel is used for ammunition storage by the French Army.
The Battle of Davao was fought by Allied forces during World War II.
 It contained American and Philippine Commonwealth troops including locally organized guerrillas against the Japanese from May 3 to 18, 1945 at the city of Davao and its vicinity in the island of Mindanao in the Philippine Archipelago.
 It is part of Operation VICTOR V, an offensive operation against Japanese forces in Mindanao, and part of the campaign for the liberation of the Philippines during World War II.
 The battle was the decisive engagement of the Mindanao Campaign.
The Battle of Fort Driant was a constituent battle in the 1944 Battle of Metz, during the Lorraine Campaign and the greater Siegfried Line Campaign.
 The battle was on occupied French territory between the forces of the United States Third Army under the command of General George S. Patton and the forces of Nazi Germany under General Otto von Knobelsdorff.
Ouvrage Bois-du-Four is a lesser work ("petit ouvrage") in the Fortified Sector of the Crusnes of the Maginot Line.
 The ouvrage consists of a single large combat block without an underground gallery system, and is located between "petit ouvrage" Mauvais-Bois and "gros ouvrage" Bréhain, facing Luxembourg.
 A planned expansion, never carried out, was intended to enlarge Bois-du-Four into a fully equipped "gros ouvrage".
 Bois-du-Four saw little action in either the Battle of France in 1940 or the Lorraine Campaign of 1944.
 It is preserved by the community of Villers-la-Montagne and may be visited.
The Changes is a British children's science fiction television serial filmed in 1973 and first broadcast in 1975 by the BBC.
 It was directed by John Prowse and is based on the trilogy written by Peter Dickinson: "The Weathermonger" (1968), "Heartsease" (1969), and "The Devil's Children" (1970) (the books were written in reverse order: the events of "The Devil's Children" happen first, "Heartsease" second, and "The Weathermonger" third).
Ouvrage Bréhain is part of the Fortified Sector of the Crusnes of the Maginot Line, located near the community of Bréhain-la-Ville in the Meurthe-et-Moselle "département" of France.
 Bréhain is flanked by "petits ouvrages" Mauvais Bois and Aumetz.
 The "gros ouvrage" was equipped with long-range artillery, and faced the border with Luxembourg.
 It saw no major action in either the Battle of France in 1940 or the Lorraine Campaign of 1944.
 While not open to public visitation, it has been secured and is in relatively good condition when compared to other abandoned Maginot positions.
 A flanking casemate has been restored and may be visited.
Lorraine Campaign is a term used by U.S. Army historians to describe operations of the U.S. Third Army in Lorraine during World War II from September 1 through December 18, 1944.
 Official U.S. Army campaign names for this period and location are "Northern France" and "Rhineland".
 The term was popularized by the publication of a volume of the same name by the U.S. Army in 1950.
 As written by the volume's author:
Ouvrage Schiesseck is a "gros ouvrage" of the Maginot Line, located near Bitche in the French "département" of Moselle.
 Schiesseck is adjoined by "gros ouvrage" Simserhof and "petit ouvrage" Otterbiel, all part of the Fortified Sector of Rohrbach, and faces the German frontier.
 Schiesseck saw comparatively little activity during the Battle of France, surrendering with other positions in its sector on 30 June 1940.
 During the Lorraine Campaign of 1944 Schiesseck was occupied by German forces and presented a point of resistance to American advances, requiring heavy bombardment and infantry assaults by engineer units to capture.
 The area was abandoned during the Battle of the Bulge, but was recaptured in March 1945.
 In the 1950s Schiesseck was repaired as part of a program to re-arm the Maginot Line against a potential advance by Warsaw Pact forces.
 It was abandoned in the early 1970s.
 Schiesseck is on military land and is not visitable by the public.
