SdKfz 254 The Sdkfz 254 was a fully tracked armoured scout car employed by Nazi Germany during World War II . From 1936 , the vehicle was developed under the designation RR - 7 by the Saurer company as an artillery tractor for the Austrian army . Testing was completed and in 1937 , an order was placed for the tractors and they were manufactured in 1938 . About 12 vehicles were made prior to " Anschluss " ( the annexation of Austria by Nazi Germany in 1938 ) . Manufacture of the vehicle continued after the " Anschluss " . Records indicate that a total of 140 units were built with the new designation RK - 7 ( " Räder - Kettenfahrgestell " ) , although they were named as SdKfz 254 by the " Wehrmacht " .

AD Navyplane The AD Navyplane was designed by the British Admiralty ' s Air Department as a reconnaissance aircraft for use during World War I . Performance of the prototype was so disappointing that plans to produce it were cancelled almost immediately . The Navyplane was designed by the Admiralty ' s Harold Bolas with the assistance of R . J . Mitchell of Supermarine . It was a pusher floatplane biplane with the pilot and observer being seated ahead of the wings in a streamlined lightweight nacelle mounted in the gap between the upper and lower sets of wings . A Smith Static radial engine and a pusher propeller were installed behind them . Two examples were ordered in 1916 for the Royal Naval Air Service ( RNAS ) . Serial numbers were allocated for seven Navyplanes ( 9095 - ' 96 , N . 1070 - ' 74 ) but just one prototype ( 9095 ) was completed . Tests of this Supermarine - built prototype commenced in August 1916 ( flown by Lieutenant - Commander John Seddon ) but proved seriously underpowered and unsatisfactory . The engine was replaced with an AR . 1 rotary engine ( which was later redesignated the BR . 1 for Bentley Rotary 1 ) and retested in May 1917 . However , even without a military load and observer , the Navyplane ' s performance still proved to be poor , and the design was abandoned on 27 August 1917 , with no second prototype being produced . Supermarine attempted to design an improved version to replace the Short 184 , the design , the Supermarine Patrol Seaplane , being powered by a 200 hp ( 149 kW ) Sunbeam engine . While contracts for six aircraft were placed , work was abandoned before a prototype was built , the Short 184 proving adequate in the patrol role .

Turret In architecture , a turret ( from Italian : " torretta " , little tower ; Latin : " turris " , tower ) is a small tower that projects vertically from the wall of a building such as a medieval castle . Turrets were used to provide a projecting defensive position allowing covering fire to the adjacent wall in the days of military fortification . As their military use faded , turrets were used for decorative purposes , as in the Scottish baronial style . A turret can have a circular top with crenellation s as seen in the picture at right , a pointed roof , or other kind of apex . It might contain a staircase if it projects higher than the building ; however , a turret is not necessarily higher than the rest of the building ; in this case , it is typically part of a room , that can be simply walked into – see the turret of Chateau de Chaumont on the collection of turrets , which also illustrates a turret on a modern skyscraper . A building may have both towers and turrets ; turrets might be smaller or higher but the difference is generally considered to be that a turret projects from the edge of the building , rather than continuing to the ground . The size of a turret is therefore limited by technology , since it puts additional stresses on the structure of the building . It would traditionally be supported by a corbel .

Siege of Kenilworth The Siege of Kenilworth ( June – December 1266 ) was a six - month siege on the Kenilworth Castle and a battle of the Second Barons ' War . The siege was a part of an English civil war fought from 1264 to 1267 by the forces of Simon de Montfort against the Royalist forces led by Prince Edward ( later Edward I of England ) . The siege was one of few castle attacks during the war . Background . The forces of King Henry III had defeated the forces of Simon de Montfort at the Battle of Evesham in August 1265 . De Montfort was killed during the engagement , and his son ( also named Simon ) agreed to surrender that December at Northampton . De Montfort agreed to surrender Kenilworth , the refuge of the Baron loyalists , and letters were sent to the garrison at Kenilworth inviting their surrender . However , the forces at Kenilworth rejected these terms , first in December 1265 , and again in March 1266 , the second time by removing the hand of the King ' s envoy . Castle defences . The Castle of Kenilworth ' s structure was unique and contributed to the longevity of the siege . The castle was a formidable structure due to its heavy defences . The most notable defence was a dam to the south of the castle , across which a causeway led from the entrance to the bailey and keep . Behind the dam was an artificial lake along the south and west sides of the castle , protecting it from a land approach . Ditches along the north side and a second pool on the east side of the causeway extended the water protection to surround the castle . Siege . The feudal summons for the siege was pushed back from December of 1265 , finally occurring on 24 May the next year . From that point on , the siege occurred in earnest . The castle ’ s garrison was large , over a thousand , usually estimated at twelve hundred men , and active in defending themselves . Outside of the castle was the feudal host of England as summoned by Henry III , along with his elder son , the Lord Edward , and Edmund , who had been attempting to contain the garrison since the prior autumn . The attack on Kenilworth Castle began on 21 June . It was the largest siege to ever occur in England . . The royal forces tried all manners of devices . Numerous stone - throwing devices , presumably trebuchet s , were brought to the siege , as well as " turres ligneas " , or wooden towers . An " ursus " or " bear " was built , with separate compartments for archers . Barges were sent from Chester to attempt an attack via the lake ; this did not work . Time , however , was the only weapon left at their disposal , and the patient waiting finally paid off ; with the garrison running out of food and suffering from disease , they finally surrendered on 13 December 1266 . and accepted the terms of the Dictum of Kenilworth .

List of United States Air Force Groups This is a list of Groups in the United States Air Force that do not belong to a host wing . The last level of independent operation is the group level . When an organization is not part of the primary mission of the base it will be made an independent group . They may report to a wing or they may be completely independent ( the 317th Airlift Group at Dyess Air Force Base ) . They may also be organized as an expeditionary unit , independent but too small to warrant a wing designation . The organization of the independent group is usually similar to the operations group , but with a few squadrons or flight from the support side added to make the organization more self - sufficient , but not large enough to become a wing .

Capture of Brielle The Capture of Brielle by the Sea Beggars , or Watergeuzen , on 1 April 1572 marked a turning point in the uprising of the Low Countries against Spain in the Eighty Years ' War . Militarily the success was minor , as Brielle was not being defended at the time . It did , however , provide the first foothold on land for the rebels at a time when the rebellion was all but crushed , and it offered the sign for a new revolt throughout the Netherlands . Over the next years the decision of the northern provinces to join the rebels would form the beginning of the Dutch Republic . Overview . The Sea Beggars were led by William van der Marck , Lord of Lumey , and by two of his captains , Willem Bloys van Treslong and Lenaert Jansz de Graeff . After they were expelled from England by Elizabeth I , they needed a place to shelter their 25 ships . As they sailed towards Brill , they were surprised to find out that the Spanish garrison had left in order to deal with trouble in Utrecht . On the evening of April 1 , the 600 men sacked the undefended port . As they were preparing to leave , one of the men said there was no reason they should leave where they were . Legacy . Dutch students are taught a short rhyme to remember this event : In English , this translates into " On April 1st , Alva lost his glasses " . The pun arises from the fact that the name of the town ( ' Brielle ' or ' Den Briel ' ) sounds like ' bril ' , which is Dutch for ' glasses ' .
