SM - 65E Atlas The SM - 65E Atlas , or Atlas - E , was an operational variant of the Atlas missile . It first flew on 11 October 1960 , and was deployed as an operational ICBM from September 1961 until April 1966 . Following retirement as an ICBM , the Atlas - E , along with the Atlas - F , was refurbished for orbit al launches as the Atlas E / F . The last Atlas E / F launch was conducted on 24 March 1995 , using a rocket which had originally been built as an Atlas - E . As fully operational ICBMs , the Atlas E and F ( which differed only in guidance systems ) had upgraded engines and inertial control instead of the Atlas D ' s radio ground guidance . Atlas - E launches were conducted from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station , at Launch Complexes 11 and 13 , and Vandenberg Air Force Base at OSTF - 1 , LC - 576 and SLC - 3 . The first Atlas E launch attempt was carried out from LC - 13 at Cape Canaveral on October 11 , 1960 . It and the second launch on November 30 both failed due to loss of sustainer engine hydraulic pressure at around one minute into the flights . Flight # 3 on January 24 , 1961 was lost due to a control problem with the vernier engines . The fourth attempt on February 24 was successful and the fifth and sixth tries in March were partial successes . After two successful Atlas E flights in May , testing at Vandenberg AFB in California began . On June 7 , an attempt to launch Missile 27E from a coffin silo failed when the vehicle suffered combustion instability and exploded at liftoff , putting the pad out of commission for six months . This was followed by another failure at Cape Canaveral two weeks later when Missile 17E went out of control and disintegrated 30 seconds after launch . As the June 1961 accident had curtailed launches at Vandenberg until Complex OSFT - 1 could be repaired , subsequent Atlas E flights during the year took place from Cape Canaveral and most of them were successful . But in November , an attempt to launch a biological mission with a squirrel monkey named Goliath ended in disaster as the Atlas ' s sustainer engine and verniers shut down almost immediately at liftoff . The booster engines managed to retain attitude control until a fire broke out in the engine compartment and caused the right booster engine to shut down followed by loss of electrical power . With all control lost , the Atlas was destroyed by Range Safety at T + 33 seconds ( Goliath survived the explosion of the Atlas , but was killed on impact with the ocean ; the capsule and its unfortunate passenger were recovered three days later ) . Despite these mishaps , the Atlas E was declared operational that month . The Atlas E and F were phased out of use as operational ICBMs in 1965 and replaced by the hypergolically - fueled Titan II . Decommissioned Atlas missiles were then used for military satellite launches well into the 1990s .
Battle of Fort McAllister ( 1864 ) The Second Battle of Fort McAllister took place December 13 , 1864 , during the final stages of Maj . Gen . William T . Sherman ' s March to the Sea during the American Civil War . Union forces overwhelmed a small Confederate force defending the strategically important Fort McAllister near Savannah , Georgia , a major Federal objective . Battle . As Sherman ' s armies neared Savannah on December 10 , following their lengthy march from Atlanta , his troops were in need of supplies . Just off the coast was Admiral John A . Dahlgren ' s fleet waiting with the needed supplies , as well as mail that had not been delivered to Sherman ' s men for six weeks during their march . However , Confederate fortifications around Savannah prevented Dahlgren from linking up with Sherman . As Sherman deployed his forces to invest Savannah , his cavalry reconnoitered Fort McAllister and other nearby fortifications , and determined that the lightly defended fort could be taken by a determined infantry attack . Sherman realized that if Fort McAllister was reduced , the Union Army would control the Ogeechee River , providing an avenue to the sea . Sherman ordered Maj . Gen . Oliver Otis Howard ' s Army of the Tennessee to reduce the fort . Howard chose the division commanded by Brig . Gen . William B . Hazen to lead the attack . On December 13 , 1864 , Hazen ' s 4 , 000 - man division was deployed to storm the fort . Sherman and Howard climbed to an observation platform erected on top of an abandoned rice mill to observe the progress . In the surrounding woods Hazen formed his three brigades commanded respectively by Colonels Theodore Jones , Wells Jones and John M . Oliver . As the sun was setting , a Union Navy ship , USS " Dandelion " , steamed into view from Ossabaw Sound . Sherman signalled that the fort was still in enemy hands but would be theirs in a minute . Just then Hazen ' s men emerged from the woods and advanced towards the fort widely spaced apart to limit effectiveness of artillery . Confederate Major George Anderson commanded about 230 veteran troops in Fort McAllister . Hazen ' s troops charged through the abatis and buried torpedoes and soon reached the parapet and overwhelmed the defenders ; The fort fell in 15 minutes . Sherman was overjoyed with the victory and rowed down the Ogeechee to view the fort . The next day he rowed out to Dahlgren ' s flagship to greet the admiral . Sherman also had reason to be proud of the troops that had taken part in the victory at Fort McAllister . These were the same troops he personally led as a division commander at Shiloh and a corps commander at Vicksburg . With his supply line now open , Sherman could now prepare for the siege and capture of Savannah , a goal he would achieve by Christmas . Forces Engages . Union .

23rd Brigade ( Australia ) The 23rd Brigade was a brigade of the Australian Army . Formed in 1940 for service during the Second World War , the brigade was initially a formation of the Second Australian Imperial Force assigned to the 8th Division , however , after its subunits were captured by the Japanese in 1942 it was reformed with Militia battalion s and was mainly used in a garrison role until late in the war when it was committed to the fighting on Bougainville . It was disbanded in 1946 . History . Formed in July 1940 at Victoria Barracks in Melbourne , Victoria for service during the Second World War , it was initially raised as a unit of the Second Australian Imperial Force , attached to the 8th Division . Upon formation it consisted of three infantry battalions — the 2 / 21st , 2 / 22nd and 2 / 40th Battalions — although later both a pioneer and a machine gun battalion were added to its establishment . When the 8th Division was sent to Malaya in early 1941 , the 23rd Brigade remained in Australia where it deployed to Darwin to while Japanese intentions became clearer . Nevertheless , ultimately its subunits experienced the same fate that befell the rest of the division . Broken up and sent piecemeal to reinforce the garrisons at Rabaul , Ambon and on Timor , the 2 / 21st , 2 / 22nd and 2 / 40th Battalions were all eventually destroyed or captured by the Japanese . After this , it was decided to reform the brigade with three Militia battalions — the 7th , 8th and 27th Battalions . Reassigned to the 12th Division , the brigade was once again sent to garrison Darwin , however , in March 1943 it was relieved and sent to the Atherton Tablelands in Queensland to undertake training prior to deployment overseas . In 1944 – 45 , under the command of Brigadier Arnold Potts , and reassigned to the 3rd Division , the brigade took part in the Bougainville campaign . Initially they were used in a static role , garrisoning the Outer Islands , however , in 1945 the brigade was committed to the fighting on Bougainvile Island , where they took over responsibility for the central and northern sectors , engaging the Japanese in direct combat for the first time , carrying out patrolling operations and a number of small attacks . During one of these attacks , north of Ratsua , one of the 8th Battalion ' s members , Private Frank Partridge , performed the deeds that led to him being awarded the Victoria Cross . Following the end of hostilities , the brigade remained on Bougainville guarding Japanese prisoners as the demobilisation process began . Finally , in 1946 all its subordinate units were disbanded .
76 mm mountain gun M1938 The 76 mm mountain gun M1938 ( Russian : 76 - мм горная пушка обр . 1938 г . ) was a Soviet gun used in World War II . In 1937 , USSR got a license for Skoda 75 mm M1936 mountain gun in exchange for license production of Tupolev SB in Czechoslovakia ; subsequently , in 1937 - 1938 a team led by L . I . Gorlitskiy at " Plant no 7 " developed a modification eventually adopted as " 76 mm mountain gun M1938 " . The gun had high elevation angle and could be quickly dismantled for transporting by pack horses . Sprung wheels allowed high towing speed . The gun was light enough to be moved in combat by its crew . By 1 June 1941 , the Red Army possessed about 800 pieces . In addition to mountain units , the weapon was issued to some airborne units . In Wehrmacht service the gun was designated as 7 . 62 cm GebK 307 ( r ) . The Finnish army operated five captured pieces , known as 76 VK 38 .
Battle of Ossów The Battle of Ossów took place in the fields near Wołomin on August 14 , 1920 . It was a part of a much larger battle on the outskirts of Warsaw during the Polish - Bolshevist War ( February 1919 - March 1921 ) . During the day Russian units managed to capture the strategically important village of Ossów , but were repelled in the evening by a Polish counter - attack . The battle was one of the first skirmishes won by the Poles since the beginning of the Soviet offensive in late spring . Battleground . The battle was fought as the Red Army forces commanded by Mikhail Tukhachevsky approached the Polish capital of Warsaw and nearby Modlin Fortress . The village of Ossów lay on a strategically important road leading from Warsaw towards Stanisławów and was considered crucial for both sides of the conflict . However , the retreat from the Bug River line left Polish forces in disarray and there were barely any forces available to defend the area of Ossów . In Polish plans , the Leśniakowizna - Ossów road was to be used as a means of retreat from the first line of defences towards Warsaw and the second line of trenches , located slightly to the west of Ossów itself . Forces . By mid - August the area was manned by the 18th Infantry Division , a battle - hardened and well - equipped , yet tarnished and overstretched formation . The village itself was defended by remnants of the 33rd and 36th Infantry Regiments of the Polish Army . The earlier unit was considered a high - morale regiment due to a large number of conscripts from the region of Mazovia . The latter unit was considered elite as it was an all - volunteer body drafted from among the students of various Warsaw - based universities , ( hence it was nicknamed the Academic Legion ) . < br > Immediately before the battle , the two regiments were reinforced with the newly created 221st and 236th Infantry Regiments of the Volunteer Army : both understrength and under - equipped , the latter unit was composed in large part from volunteers of Warsaw ' s gymnasiums . On the Russian side of the front , there were elements of the 79th Rifle Brigade and 2nd Rifle Division , commanded by Grigori Khakhanyan . In total , the Bolshevist commander had three regiments at his disposal , ( the 235th , 366th and the 16th Infantry Regiments ) , with a cavalry corps of Gayk Bzhishkyan in reserve . Battle . During the day Russian units managed to capture the strategically important village of Ossów , but were repelled in the evening by a Polish counter - attack . The battle was one of the first skirmishes won by the Poles since the beginning of the Soviet offensive in late spring . Aftermath . The death of priest Ignacy Skorupka became one of the symbols of the war .
W81 The W81 thermonuclear warhead was a planned US warhead to be mounted on the SM - 2 surface to air missile used by the US Navy . The W81 was a design derivative of the B61 nuclear bomb as many other modern US warhead designs are . The weapon was being designed at Los Alamos National Laboratory ( at the time called Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory ) . The W81 went through several design iterations , starting with an enhanced radiation model , then a pure fission model , and finally was simply canceled in 1986 without ever being tested or produced . Characteristics are not known in detail , but the B61 it is derived from has a physics package ( bomb core ) of about 12 inch diameter with length of 32 inches , weighing around 300 pounds ( see the W80 , another B61 derived design ) . Available LASL images show a much shorter weapon , perhaps 12 by 16 to 18 inches , probably the final fission - only W81 concept , corresponding with the size of the B61 fission primary alone . The LASL image clearly shows the warhead taking up most but not all of the 13 . 5 inch SM - 2 body diameter .

Fort Christina Fort Christina ( later renamed Fort Altena ; ) was the first Swedish settlement in North America and the principal settlement of the New Sweden colony . Built in 1638 and named after Queen Christina of Sweden , it was located approximately 1 mi ( 1 . 6 km ) east of the present downtown Wilmington , Delaware , at the confluence of the Brandywine Creek and the Christina River , approximately 2 mi ( 3 km ) upstream from the mouth of the Christina on the Delaware River . History . The Dutch , as part of the New Netherland colony , maintained a factorij at Fort Nassau . A settlement along south side of Delaware Bay at Zwaanendael ( near present - day Lewes ) was attempted in 1631 , but the colony was attacked and destroyed the following year by Native Americans . Following plans by King Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden to establish a Swedish colony in North America , the Swedes arrived in Delaware Bay on March 29 , 1638 aboard the ships " Kalmar Nyckel " and " Fogel Grip " under the command of Peter Minuit , the former director general of the New Netherland colony . They landed at a spot along the Christina River at the present site of Old Swedes Church in Wilmington . Minuit selected the site on the Christina River near the Delaware as being optimal for trade in beaver pelts with the local Lenape . At the time , the Dutch had claimed the area south to the Delaware ( then called " South River " ) . The Swedes claimed an area for the Realm of Sweden on the south side of the Delaware that encompassed much of the present - day U . S . state of Delaware , eventually including parts of present - day southeastern Pennsylvania and southern New Jersey on the north side of the river . The colony remained in constant friction with the Dutch . In 1651 , the Dutch under Peter Stuyvesant established Fort Casimir at present - day New Castle , only 7 mi ( 12 km ) south of Fort Christina , in order to menace the Swedish settlement . In 1654 , the Swedes captured Fort Casimir , but the following year in 1655 , the Dutch took control of New Sweden , ending the official Swedish colonial presence in North America and renaming the fort ' Fort Altena ' . The land remained as part of New Netherland until it became part of the English possessions when an English fleet invaded the area in 1664 . The site was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1961 . It is now preserved as Fort Christina State Park on E . 7th Street in Wilmington , along with a replica of the " Kalmar Nyckel " . The Fort Christina monument , designed by Swedish sculptor Carl Milles , stands on the site .

42nd Jäger Division ( Wehrmacht ) 42nd " Jäger Division " was a German Infantry formation during World War II . It can trace its origins to the 187th Infantry Division which was based in Austria until September 1942 , when it was redesignated as the 187th Reserve Division . The 187th was sent to Croatia and was redesignated the 42nd " Jäger Division " in January 1944 . " 42 . Jäger - Division " was formed 22 Dec 1943 in Croatia from the " 187 . Reserve - Division " . After taking part in Operation " Margarthe " , ( the military occupation of Hungary ) in March 1944 , and then returned to Yugoslavia in May . In July 1944 the division was transferred to Italy where it remained for the rest of the war and surrendered in April 1945 . Background . The main purpose of the German " Jäger " Divisions was to fight in adverse terrain where smaller , coordinated formations were more facilely combat capable than the brute force offered by the standard infantry divisions . The " Jäger " divisions were more heavily equipped than their ' mountain ' counterparts , but not as well armed as a larger infantry division . In the early stages of the war , they were the interface divisions fighting in rough terrain and foothills as well as urban areas , between the mountains and the plains . The " Jäger " s ( means " hunters " in German ) , relied on a high degree of training , and slightly superior communications , as well as their not inconsiderable artillery support . In the middle stages of the war , as the standard infantry divisions were down sized , the " Jäger " model with two infantry regiments came to dominate the standard tables of organization . Adolf Hitler declared that all infantry divisions were to be " Grenadier " Divisions in 1943 except for his elite " Jäger " and Mountain " Jaeger " divisions . Area of operations .

Battle of Studzianki The Battle of Studzianki , was a tactical engagement between the elements of the Red Army ' s 2nd Tank Army employed as the Cavalry mechanized group of the 1st Belorussian Front and elements of the German 9th Army of Army Group North Ukraine defending south of Warsaw . The battle was part of the Soviet Lublin - Brest Offensive Operation . The 2nd Tank Army was launched through the breach in the German 4th Panzer Army ' s front between Parczew and Chełm , and bypassing Lublin attempted to find a crossing over the Visla . In this it was supported by the Polish First Army , including the Polish 1st Armoured Brigade . In a hasty encounter battle during which the Polish 1st Armoured Brigade was located in the first echelon of the 2nd Tank Army . At the point where the Army was able to occupy the Magnuszew brideghead , the Polish brigade engaged advance element s of the counter - attacking German Fallschirm - Panzer Division 1 Hermann Göring with the express orders to deny Vistula crossings to the Red Army . The German counter - attack tried to dislodge the Soviet engineers , and the Polish troops providing support for them , behind Vistula off the bridgehead . The Soviet and Polish forces held the bridgehead , and German forces suffered heavy casualties before withdrawing . To commemorate the battle , in 1969 the name of the village Studzianki was changed to include the word " Pancerne " , meaning " Armoured " in Polish language . The episodes 3 - 5 of Polish TV series Czterej pancerni i pies ( Four Tankmen and the Dog ) depict the crew of Polish tank during the battle of Studzianki .
