Amédée - François Lamy Amédée - François Lamy was a French military officer . He was born at Mougins , in the French " département " of Alpes - Maritimes on February 7 , 1858 and died in the battle of Kousséri on April 22 , 1900 . Early years . Lamy ' s ambition to become an officer developed very early ; at ten - years - old , he entered the Prytanée National Militaire , where he won the first prize in Geography in the general concourse of all the department ' s school , a possible sign of his future colonial career . In 1877 he entered at Saint - Cyr , the foremost French military academy . Military career . Lamy began his career in 1879 as an Second Lieutenant in the First regiment of Algerian tirailleur s . He discovered Saharan Africa , and took part in the French occupation of Tunisia ; he was sent in 1884 to Tonkin , where he remained until 1886 . The following year he was back in Algeria , where he became " aide - de - camp " to the General in command of the division quartered in Algiers in 1887 , and resumed his previous interest in the Sahara and learned to exploit the qualities of the mehariste s , the camel cavalry . Fascinated by the desert , he learned how to live with little : " Personally , I will be really happy only when I ' ll be able to live without neither drinking nor eating . At the moment , I ' m attempting this kind of existence , but obtaining only a meagre success . I ' m still obliged to eat more than six dates at my meals : this is afflicting ! " . In 1893 Lamy participated in Le Châtelier Mission ( Middle Congo ) where he was in charge of studying the project of a railway between Brazzaville and the coast , and also of making botanical , geological and geographical studies . Through Alfred Le Châtelier , Lamy later met Fernand Foureau , with whom he assembled the Foureau - Lamy Mission in 1898 , charged , with another two expeditions , the Gentil and Voulet - Chanoine missions , to conquer Chad and unify all French dominions in West Africa . Foureau and Lamy proceeded from Algiers through the Sahara , and met with the other two missions at Kousséri on April 21 , 1900 . The following day the united French forces confronted Rabih az - Zubayr , a Sudanese warlord who had created an empire in the Chad Basin . In the following battle , in which Lamy was in command with 700 riflemen , while the French reported a crushing victory , Lamy was killed , as was Rabih . In his honour , the first French governor , Émile Gentil , named the capital of the new French territory of Chad Fort - Lamy , until it was renamed N ' Djamena in 1973 . In 1970 , Chad issued an undated gold 1 , 000 francs coin as part of its tenth independence celebrations . One side features Lamy ' s head , with a military style collar , and the legend " COMMANDANT LAMY 1900 " .

CMG - 1 The Colt Machine Gun - 1 or CMG - 1 was an open bolt belt - fed machine gun that fired 5 . 56x45mm cartridges designed by Colt Manufacturing Company in 1965 . Colt hastily developed the CMG - 1 to complement the CAR - 15 , a Colt branding of the M16 rifle , so that Colt might offer both of them as an alternative to the Stoner 63 weapons system . It failed to achieve any sales , and was replaced by the Colt CMG - 2 , which also failed to achieve any sales . Though marketed together with the CAR - 15 , the CMG - 1 had few parts in common with it . One CMG - 1 used direct impingement and shared the bolt , gas tube , and other operating parts of the M16 . However , other CMG - 1s used gas pistons . The CMG - 1s also used the M16 ' s pistol grip , front sight block , and flash hider . Similar to the Stoner 63 , the CMG - 1 could be fed from either side . The rate of fire was 650 rounds per minute . Only two or three CMG - 1s were ever made . Colt made them with sheet - metal stamping . Colt offered the CMG - 1 in four different versions : bipod - mounted , tripod - mounted , vehicle - mounted , or fixed mount . The . bipod - mounted version was marketed as a light machine gun for use by assault troops . It was the only version with a buttstock . The . tripod - mounted version was considered a medium machine gun . The vehicle mounted version was a pintle - mounted machine gun for use by soldiers in land vehicles . The fixed mount version was fired by a solenoid allowing for remote operation so it could be mounted in a helicopter or other aircraft . In 1967 , Colt replaced the CMG - 1 with the CMG - 2 . The CMG - 2 abandoned any commonality with the M16 and was only available as a bipod - mounted light machine gun with a vertical foregrip . It was fed from a 150 - round belt using S - 63 link contained in a drum . The CMG - 2 was gas - piston operated , but used an M16 bolt . The extractor was machined into the bolt . The CMG - 2 ' s barrel was detachable and had a handle , so an overheated barrel could be replaced in the field . The barrel had a 1 : 9 twist and was meant to fire an experimental bullet , designed for longer ranges than the then - standard M193 bullet . Unlike the M60 machine gun , then in use in the Vietnam War , an M2 bipod was mounted on the CMG - 2 ' s ventilated handguard . The most unusual feature was that a user charged the CMG - 2 by unlocking the pistol grip , and then sliding it forward and back . Colt submitted a buttstock - less short - barreled CMG - 2 to the Navy SEALs . The Navy classified the CMG - 2 as the EX 27 Mod 0 machine gun but they ultimately chose the Stoner 63 MK23 Mod 0 Commando instead . The CMG - 2 never left prototype phase and Colt ceased development in 1969 .
25th Brigade ( Australia ) The 25th Brigade was a brigade - sized infantry unit of the Australian Army that served during the Second World War . Raised in July 1940 and consisting of three infantry battalions , the 25th Brigade served in the United Kingdom , the Middle East , New Guinea and Borneo before being disbanded in 1946 . History . Raised in the United Kingdom in July 1940 , the 25th Brigade was originally only intended to be a temporary response to the threat of an invasion by Germany following the Fall of France . Initially it had an establishment of 1 , 759 men , of whom the vast majority were drawn from service support corps of the 6th Division , although roughly a quarter were drawn from infantry reinforcements that were diverted from joining their units which were at the time serving in the Middle East . Upon formation , the brigade consisted of only three infantry battalions instead of the four that had been the usual Australian establishment up to that time , due to manpower shortages and its component units were the 70th , 71st and 72nd Battalions , although these were later re - designated as the 2 / 31st , 2 / 32nd and 2 / 33rd Battalions . Originally the 25th Brigade was part of the newly established 9th Division , however , after being dispatched to the Middle East in 1941 it was transferred to the 7th Division , with which it remained for the rest of the war . By May , its establishment was completed , and it consisted of 3 , 500 men and was composed of the 2 / 25th , 2 / 31st and 2 / 33rd Battalions . After this the brigade took part in the Syria – Lebanon campaign in June – July 1941 , during which it fought against the Vichy French before undertaking garrison duties after the armistice was signed . In early 1942 , following Japan ' s entry into the war and concerns about the strategic situation in the Pacific , the 25th Brigade — along with the rest of the 7th Division — were brought back to Australia to help reinforce the Militia units that were trying to hold back the Japanese advance in New Guinea . Between September 1942 and February 1944 the brigade took part in a number of battles as part of the fighting in New Guinea , albeit broken up by a period of six months of home service in Australia . Some of the brigade ' s most significant battles were at Kokoda , Buna – Gona , Lae and Shaggy Ridge . In February 1944 the brigade returned to Australia where they remained for over a year training in Queensland before taking part in the final western Allied amphibious operation of the war — the Landing at Balikpapan in July 1945 . This operation was part of the wider Borneo campaign . The strategic value of this campaign has since been questioned , however , ultimately the 25th Brigade ' s involvement in it was successful and it proved their last involvement in the war . It was disbanded shortly thereafter in 1946 .
Armed Aerial Scout The Armed Aerial Scout ( AAS ) is the planned replacement for the OH - 58 Kiowa in U . S . Army service . History . The Armed Aerial Scout program replaces the previous Armed Reconnaissance Helicopter program . An Analysis of Alternatives is underway and a Request for Proposal s is planned to be issued in 2014 . The U . S . Army had until December 2012 to decide whether to proceed with the program . On 29 November 2012 , Army officials decided to proceed with the Armed Aerial Scout program to acquire a new scout helicopter . On 8 January 2013 , the Army began redrafting the presentation for the service ’ s vice chief of staff before they move ahead with a competition . Vice Chief of Staff General Lloyd Austin III requested more data from the voluntary flight demonstrations done on helicopter entries , as well as taking into account the pace of other technologies , such as unmanned capabilities and future sensors . The Army has concluded that its decision for the AAS program will result in either a new development effort or a service life - extension program ( SLEP ) for the OH - 58F Kiowa . Evaluations of commercial off - the - shelf designs were made from voluntary flight demonstrations in 2012 . The five candidates included the OH - 58F Block II , AH - 6 i , AAS - 72X / X + , MD 540F , and AW139M ( used for demonstration , with AW169 AAS offered as candidate ) . The Sikorsky S - 97 Raider was offered , but no prototype was available for demonstration . Army evaluations concluded that no current aircraft met requirements . A decision on the Armed Aerial Scout program is expected “ in late summer or early fall ” 2013 . Boeing had attempted to stop MD Helicopters from offering its MD 540F in the program , as it shared the same airframe design as Boeing ' s AH - 6 . In July 2013 , MD Helicopters was allowed to continue to promote its offering in the program . In October 2013 , the Army said that the AAS program was at risk of being delayed or cancelled due to sequestration cuts . Contenders . Contenders have included : Contenders by 2012 . Candidate helicopters for interim replacement were to conduct flight demonstrations in spring 2012 . The contenders as of June 2012 are :

Task Force 11 Task Force 11 ( TF 11 or alternately Commander Task Force 11 , CTF 11 ) is a designation that has been used by the United States armed forces for two separate units . World War II . During World War II , Task Force 11 was a United States Navy aircraft carrier task force in the Pacific theater . After the attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941 , Destroyer Squadron 1 was attached to the Task Force under Vice Admiral Wilson Brown , made up of with cruisers , and . On 14 December 1941 , after delays due to bad weather , the task force cleared Pearl Harbor as a diversion for an expedition under Rear Admiral Frank J . Fletcher in Saratoga ( CV 3 ) to relieve Wake Island . TF 11 was originally formed around , then her sister ship until she was disabled by a Japan ese torpedo in January 1942 , then " Lexington " again for the Battle of the Coral Sea , then " Saratoga " after her repairs were completed . TF 11 — as part of Task Force 61 along with Task Force 16 — was involved in the Battle of the Eastern Solomons in late August 1942 , but " Saratoga " was again crippled by a submarine , and the task force shrank to just the carrier and some destroyer s . In September 1943 , TF 11 was reorganized around light carrier s and under Rear Admiral Willis Augustus Lee , and supported landings on Baker Island and Howland Island . In early 1944 , its task groups TG 11 . 1 and 11 . 2 , now consisting of escort carrier s , supported operations in the Marshall Islands . War on Terrorism .

Initially it operated under the United States Joint Special Operations Command in Afghanistan searching for senior Taliban and al - Qaeda leaders . The unit included elements from Canada ' s JTF2 as well . JSOC frequently changed the name of the task force , and it has been designated Task Force 6 - 26 , Task Force 121 , and Task Force 145 with one of its most recently recorded names being Task Force 88 .

Off St . Johns in Canada , she laid 66 magnetic mines on 9 October , one of which sank the " Delisle " on the 19th . Also lost on the same day was the " Penolver " . The master of the " Delisle " was trapped on the sinking ship by a leg which was wooden . He was freed , rescued and taken to a hospital , minus his leg . He could not be released due to the wartime shortage of artificial limbs , but his original leg was found , washed up on a beach and recovered . In between these events , two men were lost overboard on the 16th . " U - 220 " was sunk by depth charge s dropped by Avenger and Wildcat aircraft from the carrier USS " Block Island " on 28 October 1943 . Fifty - six men died ; there were no survivors .
HMS Orford ( 1698 ) HMS " Orford " was a 70 - gun third - rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy , launched at Deptford in 1698 .

Hungarian campaign of 1527 – 28 The Hungarian campaign of 1527 – 1528 was launched by Ferdinand I , Archduke of Austria and King of Hungary and Bohemia against the Ottoman Turks . Following the Battle of Mohács , the Ottomans were forced to withdraw as events elsewhere in their now massive Empire required the Sultan ' s attention . Seizing upon their absence , Ferdinand I attempted to enforce his claim as King of Hungary . In 1527 he drove back the Ottoman vassal John Zápolya and captured Buda , Győr , Komárno , Esztergom , and Székesfehérvár by 1528 . Meanwhile , the Ottoman Sultan , Suleiman the Magnificent , took no action at this stage despite the pleas of his vassal . Aftermath . For the Austrians , the victory here would be a very disappointing one . On 10 May 1529 , Suleiman the Magnificent launched his own counter - attack negating all of Ferdinand ' s gains . Of greater disappointment was the fact that many of the recently captured forts surrendered without resistance , greatly speeding up the advance . As a result , Suleiman was able to reach and besiege Vienna .
