F Kikan History and development . Based on experiences in China , the Imperial Japanese Army established a semi - autonomous unit to carry out liaison duties with local independence movements in Southeast Asia and transmit intelligence gathered from these movements back to the army command . Two such units were established before the outbreak of World War II in South - East Asia : the Minami Kikan and the F Kikan . The F - Kikan was named after its leader , Major Fujiwara Iwaichi , chief of intelligence of the Japanese 15th Army , initially stationed in Bangkok in late 1941 . Fujiwara ' s staff included five commissioned officer s and two Hindi - speaking interpreters . Fujiwara ' s motto was that the intelligence activity for Imperial Japanese Army is " ultimate sincereness " . After the attack on Pearl Harbor , the 15th Army was tasked with the invasion of Malaya , during which time F - Kikan rescued Sultan Abdul Hamid Halim of Kedah and his family . His son ( and future Malaysia n Prime Minister ) Tunku Abdul Rahman made a radio announcement urging the Malay people to cooperate with Japan . F - Kikan also attempted to mobilize the anti - British Young Malay Union , but since most of its leadership had been arrested by the British shortly after the start of the war , its impact was minor . The F - Kikan was also instrumental in establishing relations with Indonesia ns resistance movements against Dutch colonial rule , especially in Aceh in norther Sumatra , which formed a backdrop to the Japanese occupation of Indonesia . However , F - Kikan ' s greatest success was in its contacts with Indian independence leader Giani Pritam Singh Dhillon and Captain Mohan Singh , and recruitment of some 40 , 000 Indian prisoners of war into what eventually became the Indian National Army . This development was a tremendous coup for the Japanese government , and was a direct threat to the British position in India . After the British surrender of Singapore in 1942 , F - Kikan was dissolved , and replaced by a new liaison agency , the Iwakuro Kikan , or " I - Kikan " , to coordinate activities between the Indian National Army and the Japanese army .
6594th Test Group The 6594th Test Group was a United States Air Force Unit stationed in Hawaii at Hickam Air Force Base from 1958 until it was inactivated in 1986 . The 6594th Test Group was established in 1958 to support U . S . Air Force Systems Command missile and space development operations in the Western Pacific area . It also provided support to the U . S . Coast Guard and Honolulu Joint Rescue Coordination Center on an as - available , non - interference basis . Large portions of the Test Group ' s mission were classified until 1995 when information concerning Project CORONA was declassified . The 6594th was largely concerned with retrieving film canisters , about the size of a garbage can , in midair that had been ejected from some of the United States ' earliest spy satellites . These canisters were among the first objects sent into space that were designed to survive re - entry . Upon entering the ionosphere , they could resemble a shooting , or falling , star . Thus , the unit ' s motto " To Catch a Falling Star " . Because retrieval occurred over water in the Pacific , rescue swimmers were a standard part of the mission crew . Thus , when the 6594th was not busy with their primary mission , they were often available to support the US Coast Guard and other agencies in Search and Rescue ( SAR ) missions . The 6594th Test Group had one of the best records for open water rescues in the U . S . Air Force . Personnel . At the time of inactivation , the 6594th was staffed by 95 officers and 409 enlisted personnel and was supported by 16 US Civil Service personnel . Tragic Loss . On 15 January 1985 an HH - 53 helicopter , call sign Arris 01 , from the 6594th Test Group crashed while attempting a shipboard rescue mission 540 miles north of Honolulu . All seven crew members were killed : Pilots Capt . David D . Mason , Capt . Steve Pindzola , 2Lt . Russell Ohl . Flight Engineers SSgt Kyle D . Marshall , SSgt Daniel R . Reihman . Pararescuemen SSgt John R . Gilbert , Sgt Robert A . Jermyn . All seven made the ultimate sacrifice in keeping with the motto of air rescue , " That others may live . " The helicopter crashed when the tail broke off while the helicopter hovered above the commercial ship , " Asian Beauty . " Captain Mason had been married only a few days and returned early from his honeymoon to volunteer for the flight . A memorial plaque in honor of the seven crew members is located in the yard of the chapel at Hickam Field . For more information , see the publication of the Hickam Field annual reports . Aircraft . At the time of inactivation , Test Group ' s aircraft complement consisted of : 7 JC - 130B 3 JC - 130H 5 HH - 53C 3 HC - 130P
Battle of Huamantla The Battle of Huamantla was a U . S . victory late in the Mexican - American War that forced the Mexican Army to lift the Siege of Puebla . Background . The same day Mexico City fell to General Winfield Scott ' s army ( September 14 , 1847 ) , Mexican forces began a siege on Puebla . Less than a month later , a relief force was organized and marched out to Puebla under the command of Major General Joseph Lane . Mexican reinforcements were also moving to Puebla under the command of Antonio López de Santa Anna , who had recently renounced his presidency . Battle . On October 8 , 1847 , Lane sent out spies who learned that Santa Anna ' s force was waiting in Huamantla , 25 miles from Puebla . The next day , October 9 , Lane ' s vanguard of Texas Rangers under Captain Samuel Walker reached the town and sighted roughly 2 , 000 Mexican lancers . At the head of his Rangers , Walker charged into the city to drive out the Mexicans , but Santa Anna led a counter attack and stopped the Rangers . Walker was mortally wounded and , for about an hour , the Rangers desperately fought to hold their position in the town , some of them seeking refuge in a church . The rest of Lane ' s infantry arrived , attacked and drove out Santa Anna ' s force . When Lane heard of Walker ' s death he turned his troops loose , who pillaged and burned Huamantla , the only instance in the war in which a sizeable U . S . force had sacked a city . Aftermath . The battle was Santa Anna ' s last . The new Mexican government led by Manuel de la Peña y Peña first tried its power when it asked Santa Anna to turn over command of the army to General José Joaquín de Herrera . Three days after the battle , General Lane fought his way into Puebla and raised the siege . Lane continued raids against Mexican guerrillas to keep the supply route between the port of Veracruz and Mexico City clear .
Aerfer Ariete The Aerfer Ariete ( Italian for " Ram " ) was a prototype fighter aircraft built in Italy in 1958 . It was a refined derivative of the Aerfer Sagittario 2 , and was an attempt to bring that aircraft up to a standard where it could be mass - produced as a viable combat aircraft . Retaining most of the Sagittario 2 ' s layout with a nose intake and ventral exhaust for the main Derwent engine , the Ariete added a Rolls - Royce Soar RS . 2 auxiliary turbojet engine to provide additional power for climbing and sprinting . This used a dorsal , retractable intake with its exhaust at the tail . No production ensued ; a proposed version with an auxiliary rocket engine instead of the auxiliary turbojet , the Aerfer Leone , was abandoned before a prototype could be built .

Chef d ' escadron In the French armed forces ( and in the armed forces of former French colonies such as the armed forces of Niger ) , " Chef d ' escadron " is the title of a " commandant " ( major ) in the Artillery and Baggage Train Corps and in the Gendarmerie . In the Armoured Cavalry Corps , the equivalent rank is " Chef d ' escadrons " , in the Infantry and the Combat Engineer Corps , it is " Chef de bataillon " .
