Pyotr Dolgov Pyotr Ivanovich Dolgov ( ; 21 February 1920 – 1 November 1962 ) ( Hero of the Soviet Union ) was a colonel in the Soviet Air Force . Dolgov was killed while carrying out a high - altitude parachute jump from a Volga balloon gondola . Early life and career . Dolgov was born into a family of farmers in the village of Bogoyavlenskoye ( now Dolgovo ) in Zemetchinsky District , Penza Oblast . He served with the airborne troops of the USSR in World War II . He reportedly designed the ejection seats for the Vostok spacecraft . Death . On 1 November 1962 , Dolgov and Eugene Andreyev ascended in a Volga balloon gondola from Volsk , near Saratov , to make high - altitude parachute jumps . Andreyev successfully completed his jump . Dolgov , testing an experimental pressure suit , jumped at 28 , 640 meters ( 93 , 970 ft ) . The helmet visor of Dolgov ' s pressure suit hit part of the gondola as he exited , and the suit depressurized , killing him . On 12 December 1962 , Dolgov was posthumously named a Hero of the Soviet Union . If Dolgov ' s jump had been successful he still would not have exceeded the record set by Joseph Kittinger for the highest - altitude parachute jump in history ( 31 , 300 meters , 16 August 1960 ) . However , this record has since been broken by Felix Baumgartner ( 38 , 969 meters , 14 October 2012 ) . Legacy . At the time of Dolgov ' s death , the Soviet Army newspaper " Red Star " announced that he had died in the course of " carrying out his duties " . Over the years there have been false reports that Dolgov actually died on 11 October 1960 , in a failed flight of a Vostok spacecraft . A fictionalized version of Dolgov ' s death ( incorrectly dated in February 1961 ) appears in the short story " The Chief Designer " by Andy Duncan , which was published in Asimov ' s Science Fiction magazine and was a Hugo finalist .

CITEFA Mathogo The Mathogo ( Acronym for " Misil Anti - Tanque Hilo Guiado " - ) is an Argentine wire - guided anti - tank missile developed by CITEFA ( " Instituto de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas de las FFAA " - the Armed Forces Scientific and Technical Research Institute ) to supplement and eventually replace the Argentine 105 - mm recoilless rifles . In design it is similar to the Swedish BANTAM by Bofors - which is reported to have been bought in limited numbers for the Argentine Marine Corps - only slightly larger and with a pointed nose section with the first versions . Some news report photo captions have even mistaken it for the BANTAM . Development was completed in the late 1970s and various reports have stated that it is no longer in production . The Mathogo ' s warhead is capable of penetrating 400mm of rolled homogeneous armor . The missile achieved operational status in 1978 and is in use by the Argentine Army . The missile has been approved for launch from the Agusta A109 helicopter , although the missile ' s accuracy reportedly suffers when used in this role .

72nd Pennsylvania Infantry The 72nd Pennsylvania Infantry ( originally raised as the 3rd California ) was a volunteer infantry regiment which served in the Union Army during the American Civil War . It was part of the famous Philadelphia Brigade . They wore a very Americanized zouave uniform , consisting of a zouave jacket trimmed with red without a tombeux on the jacket , sky - blue trousers with a red stripe down the leg , a sky - blue zouave vest trimmed in red , white gaiters , and a dark blue kepi . The jacket was decorated with 16 ball brass buttons down the front of the jacket , which were not part of the original French Zouave uniform . History . The 72nd was recruited from among the firemen of Philadelphia , Pennsylvania in early August 1861 , with DeWitt Clinton Baxter as its colonel , Theodore Hesser as lieutenant colonel , and J . M . De Witt as major . It became part of Edward D . Baker ' s California Brigade , also composed of Pennsylvania regiments with California designations . After Baker ' s death at the Battle of Ball ' s Bluff , Pennsylvania reclaimed the regiments as its own , and each unit was redesignated with a new numeral . After some months of patrolling along the Potomac River , the 72nd was transported to the Peninsula . It saw its first action at the Battle of Seven Pines on May 1 , 1862 . During the Seven Days Battles , it supported the army ' s rear guard . The 72nd was transferred to northern Virginia too late to fight in the Second Battle of Bull Run but did see light skirmishing at the Battle of Chantilly . At the Battle of Antietam , the regiment participated in the attack on the West Woods , being routed along with much of the rest of the division . Nearly half of the regiment was lost , including several officers killed . At the Battle of Gettysburg , it defended the Angle on July 2 and 3 . On the evening of the 2nd , it helped defeat Confederate Brigade General Ambrose R . Wright ' s attack , advancing just over the stone wall . The next day , it was placed in reserve for the brigade near the copse of trees . During Pickett ' s Charge , its position served as a rallying point for the left wing of the 71st and two companies of the 106th Pennsylvania , which had been driven back . Despite Brigadier General Alexander S . Webb ' s best efforts , these troops refused to counterattack for several minutes . This might have been due to the 71st ' s colorbearers being shot down . ( Civil War regiments often followed the regimental flag since orders would have been difficult to hear on the battlefield . ) At Gettysburg , Col . Baxter replaced the wounded General Webb in command of the Brigade , and Lt . Col . Hesser replaced him in command of the 72nd Regiment . The unit fought well during the Overland Campaign and in the beginning stages of the Siege of Petersburg . On June 24 , 1864 , the regiment was mustered out of service . A total of 1 , 600 men fought in the 72nd , of whom 1 , 053 became casualties , a 65 % casualty rate .

Among the early patients were hundreds of wounded men transported to York following the September 17 , 1862 , Battle of Antietam . During the Confederate invasion of 1863 , the hospital and its grounds were occupied by portions of Avery ' s North Carolina brigade of Early ' s division . Dr . Henry Palmer of the 7th Wisconsin Infantry served as the chief surgeon throughout most of the war . More than 14 , 000 soldiers were treated in York during the war years , including over 2 , 500 wounded from the nearby Battle of Gettysburg . The bodies of soldiers who died in the hospital were typically shipped to their hometowns , but nearly three dozen were buried in York ' s Prospect Hill Cemetery , where a monument of a Union soldier stands watch over the circular grave plot . The site of the hospital is now a city park , which contains an impressive large Soldiers and Sailors Monument commemorating York ' s Civil War heritage and veterans .

USS Palos ( 1865 ) The first USS " Palos " was a 4th rate iron screw tug in the United States Navy during the late 19th century . She was named for Palos de la Frontera in Spain , the place where Christopher Colombus started the first voyage to America . " Palos " was built by James Tetlow , Chelsea , Massachusetts , in 1865 and was put into service as yard tug at the Boston Navy Yard the following year . Placed in ordinary in 1869 , the tug was converted to a gunboat and commissioned 11 June 1870 , Lieutenant C . H . Rockwell in command . Departing Boston 20 June for the Asiatic Station , " Palos " steamed across the Atlantic Ocean and through the Mediterranean Sea , becoming the first American warship to transit the Suez Canal 11 – 13 August , and arrived at Singapore , via Aden and Ceylon , 25 September . Following a brief stay at that port , the gunboat put out for Hong Kong and for the next 22 years operated on the China and Japan coasts and inland waters . In May 1871 , the warship sailed from Shanghai for Nagasaki , Japan , and thence Korea as part of the Asiatic Squadron under Rear Admiral John Rodgers carrying U . S . Minister to China Frederick Low on a diplomatic mission to the “ Hermit Kingdom . ” While engaged in surveying the Salee River 1 June , she was fired upon by a Korean fort , two men from the squadron being wounded before return fire stopped the attack . Admiral Rodgers waited ten days for an official apology and then ordered " Palos " , gunboat " Monocacy " , and a 650 man landing party into action , the two warships supporting an assault and capture of the main Korean fort 10 June and the taking of four others the next day . The squadron departed the Korean coast 3 July without renewing negotiations . " Palos " continued her operations on the Asiatic Station into 1891 , cruising the Chinese and Japanese coasts , visiting the open treaty ports and making occasional voyages up the Yangtze and Canton Rivers .

Stopping at each open treaty port , the gunboat cooperated with naval vessels of other nations and repairing damage . She then operated along the north and central China coast and on the lower Yangtze until June 1892 when she sailed for Nagasaki , arriving on the 19th .
