Commandeur Commandeur is a title in French and Dutch ( also , now a purism , Kommandeur ) , usually rendered in English as Commander , with different uses . The literal meaning is he who commands , parallel to Commandant . In most senses the German equivalent is Kommandeur . Naval and air force use . Various functions of commanding officers were styled Commandeur . In the navy of the Dutch Republic anyone who commanded a ship or a fleet without having an appropriate rank to do so , could be called a commandeur . This included ad hoc fleet commanders and acting captains ( " luitenant - commandeur " ) . In the fleet of the Admiralty of Zealand however , " commandeur " was a formal rank , the equivalent of " Schout - bij - nacht " ( Rear - Admiral ) in the other Dutch admiralties . The Dutch use of the title as a rank lives on in the Royal Netherlands Navy , as the equivalent of Commodore . In the Royal Netherlands Air Force , however , this rank is known by the English spelling of Commodore which is the Dutch equivalent of the British Air Commodore . Similar rank also exist in the Royal Danish Navy and the Royal Norwegian Navy ( as " Kommandør " ) , as well as the Swedish Navy ( as " Kommendör " ) . Note that these are equivalent to Captain in the British Royal Navy and the United States Navy , and " not " Commodore . Orders . In many orders of knighthood , Commandeur is a high rank , usually above " Officier " ( i . e . Officer ) , but under one or more ranks with a prefix meaning " Great " , e . g . " Groot - " in Dutch , " Grand - " in French , which may include " Grootcommandeur " ( " Grand Commander " ; equivalent to Knight ) , the equivalent of " Commendador - mayor " ( using an equivalent suffix ) in Spanish . In this sense only , the equivalent German title is " Komthur " , of importance mainly in the " State of the Teutonic Order " and other orders ' possessions ( throughout Europe ) . Colonial office . As in various small colonial settlements ( such as various Caribbean islands ) commanding the garrison was the crux of the top job , the military title Commandeur could also be used instead of a civilian gubernatorial style , not unlike the Portuguese Captain - major . For example , this was the case on the island of Tobago in the Dutch colony of Nieuw Walcheren ( ' New Walcheren ' )

Vickers Vampire The Vickers F . B . 26 Vampire was a British single - seat pusher biplane fighter built by Vickers during the First World War . Four were built by Vickers at Bexleyheath , one of these was subsequently modified to become the F . B . 26A . Design and development . The design was a development of the earlier Vickers F . B . 12 prototypes ; and was a two - bay biplane with a high - mounted nacelle for the pilot and an initial armament of two . 303 in ( 7 . 7 mm ) Lewis Gun s . Behind this was a water - cooled 200 hp ( 150 kW ) Hispano - Suiza engine driving the propeller . The tailplane was mounted on four booms single rudder . After modifications to the radiator layout and wing structure and re - armed with three Lewis guns in an Eeman mounting capable of firing up at a 45° angle in order able to engage enemy bomber s from below , and numbered B1484 , the FB . 26 was passed to Aeroplane and Armament Experimental Establishment at Martlesham Heath for evaluation . The prototype was destroyed on 25 August 1917 when Harold Barnwell , the Vickers test pilot failed to recover from a spin . A second aircraft , B1486 , was built and was operated first by No . 39 Squadron at Woodford and then passed to No . 141 Squadron of the Royal Flying Corps in February 1918 . Service evaluation was unfavorable : although performance was satisfactory its handling qualities were poor . A third aircraft , B1485 , powered by a 230 hp ( 170 kW ) Bentley rotary engine and modified for a ground - attack role , was built in 1918 , but by the time it was built the Sopwith Salamander had already been ordered for production and development was abandoned .

Model 39 grenade The Model 39 Eihandgranate ( or Eierhandgranate , " egg hand grenade " ) was a German hand grenade introduced in 1939 and produced until the end of World War II . The " Eihandgranate " used the same fuse assembly ( the BZE 39 ) as the Model 43 " Stielhandgranate " ( " Stick Grenade " ) , which was screwed into the top of the sheet - metal body . To activate , the domed cap was unscrewed , and the pull - cord that had been coiled inside it was tugged sharply before throwing at the target . The color of the cap indicated the burning time of the type of fuse fitted . Typically , a delay of around 4 seconds was used . However , if a grenade was to be used as a fixed booby - trap then an instantaneous fuse would be fitted . Enemy soldiers who found seemingly discarded grenades would attempt to use them ( expecting a standard time delay ) only to be blown up the moment they tugged on the pull - cord . Another scenario was to wire an instantaneously fused grenade to a door - frame in an abandoned building . Then the pull - cord would be attached to the door . When the door was kicked open by opposing troops the grenade would detonate .

Alert crew An alert crew is a term used in the armed forces where members of their units and formations , will maintain a level of combat readiness as a group of persons . Although it sometimes encompasses the entire unit , today the term is more used for a set group of individuals . History . Although alert crews were probably in use during World War I , the term came of use during World War II , as crews would be scrambled to intercept enemy aircraft . After the war ended and the Cold War began , the United States Air Force began to include bomber and tanker aircraft . Crews on alert duty would typically be on alert for seven days out of a 21 day period , while being on rotational alert duty . During their alert duty , they would fly training missions to help keep their skills sharpened and occupy the time . Crewmembers would live in a mole hole , which functioned as a home away from home for their airmen . If the klaxon was sounded , alert crews would exit the mole holes and literally run out their waiting planes , which would be ready at a moment ' s notice to launch . Fighter aircraft were stationed in alert hangars during the Cold War , separate from their bomber and tanker counterparts . As the Cold War ended , the latter two were taken off of constant alert . Today , fighter aircraft still are stationed on alert throughout the world , ready to launch at a moment ' s notice . The Boeing E - 4 fleet is also always on constant alert , due to it being designed as a mobile command post for the National Command Authority ( namely the President of the United States ) , the Secretary of Defense , and presidential successors .
Desert Tactical Arms Stealth Recon Scout The Stealth Recon Scout ( SRS ) is bolt - action sniper rifle developed by the American firearm manufacturer Desert Tactical Arms . It was unveiled at the 2008 SHOT Show . Design details . The Stealth Recon Scout is notably unusual in that it is one of the few sniper rifles that has a bullpup bolt - action layout . This gives the rifle a relatively compact design ; claimed to be 11 inches ( 280 mm ) shorter than conventional sniper rifles . Because of the bullpup layout , the magazine and bolt are behind the pistol grip , and therefore the operation is slightly different to most other conventional designs . This layout also shifts more weight to the rear of the rifle ; the manufacturer claims that this creates a central balancing point . The sling points are balanced with the centerline of the weapon to ensure it lies flat when slung . The rear support grip cheekrest is optimized with the height of the scope and eye alignment , removing the need for an adjustable cheekpiece . A raised , contoured buttpad helps to seat it more securely into the shooter ' s shoulder . The Stealth Recon Scout was originally designed around the . 338 Lapua Magnum cartridge , but is also available in three other calibers ; . 243 Winchester , . 308 Winchester , and . 300 Winchester Magnum ( and now with . 260 Remington and 6 . 5x47 Lapua ) — all of which can be changed in a quick conversion . The . 338 variant is fed from a five round box magazine , and uses a 26 " ( 660 mm ) match fluted , free floated barrel . While the barrel is standard with a muzzle brake , it can be removed to allow access to a threaded muzzle for the attachment of a suppressor . The rifle is guaranteed to have a standard 0 . 5 MOA ( 0 . 15 mrad ) accuracy and uses a 1 - 6 lbs ( 4 - 27 N ) adjustable match trigger . The rifle is constructed of polymer ( available in olive drab , tan , or black ) , aluminum , and steel . The handguard and upper receiver use a Picatinny rail system for attaching accessories such as a bipod or a telescopic sight . The safety can be operated without removing the user ' s hand from the pistol grip , and the magazine release can be operated with one hand .
