Activated on 1 January 1941 as one of the three squadrons assigned to the 32d Pursuit Group as part of the United States buildup of forces after the eruption of World War II . This unit was organized , initially , to train new pilots sent directly from flight schools in the United States . The squadron was equipped with Curtiss P - 36A Hawk s and Boeing P - 26A Peashooter s drawn from the 16th and 37th Pursuit Group s . After being formed at Albrook Field , Panama Canal Zone , the squadron was moved to Río Hato Army Air Base , Panama . After the Japanese Pearl Harbor Attack , the squadron was moved to Howard Field near the Panama Canal to provide air defense of the Pacific side . At Howard , the squadron received more capable Curtiss P - 40 Warhawk s , with the squadron being moved to France Field . Just as soon as the squadron settled into France Field , a detachment was sent north to Guatemala City Air Base to perform air defense and coastal patrols . As the war threat to the Panama Canal diminished during 1942 , the squadron was transferred to Seymour Island Army Airfield in the Galapagos Islands . In addition , a detachment was sent to Salinas Airport , Ecuador ( " C " Flight ) ; Talara Airport , Peru ( " D " Flight ) however the detachment at Guatemala City , Guatemala remained and was designed as " E " Flight . The aircraft in the Galapagos were transferred from the 52d Fighter Squadron and flown from Salinas Airport , Ecuador with external fuel tanks , being escorted by a B - 24D Liberator for navigational purposes . This was the first time Seymour Field had been equipped with fighters for air defense . It became apparent very quickly , however , that the dispersion wasn ' t a very good idea and , between 10 and 19 March 1943 , the outlying flights were consolidated at Albrook Field . The personnel at Seymour were re - designated as the 51st Fighter Squadron . By October 1943 , the squadron began transitioning to Bell P - 39Q Aircobra s . In November , its parent 32d Fighter Group was disbanded and the squadron was assigned directly to the XXVI Fighter Command .

Army general " For the army rank ( s ) of general , as opposed to the specific rank of army general , see general officer . " Army general is a title used in many countries to denote the rank of general nominally commanding an army in the field . Army general is normally the highest rank used in peace time . The equivalent position in the Commonwealth , U . S . , and several other countries is simply termed general , four - star rank , or informally " full general " . The title " army general " should not be confused with the rank " general of the army " , which is more senior , and corresponds to other countries ' marshal or field marshal . The position of " general of the army " theoretically corresponds to overall command of an entire national army , while the position of " army general " only corresponds to the command of an individual army in the field .

Battle of Quipaipan The Battle of Quipaipan was the decisive battle of the Inca Civil War between the brothers Atahualpa and Huáscar . After the victory at Chimborazo , Atahualpa stopped in Cajamarca as his generals followed Huáscar to the south . The second confrontation took place at Quipaipan , where Huáscar was again defeated , his army disbanded , Huáscar himself captured and - save for the intervention of Pizarro - the entire Inca empire nearly fallen to Atahualpa . Historians know today that the battle took place a couple of miles west of the Inca capital Cusco in April 1532 . According to the number of soldiers that Atahualpa kept in Cajamarca , after the battle of Chimborazo ( some 80 , 000 men ) , his generals Chalicuchima and Quizquiz should have led between 50 , 000 and 100 , 000 men . Huáscar ' s force was probably slightly smaller and shocked , as they had been utterly beaten earlier in Ecuador . Little of the battle is known . Atahualpa ' s generals won a decisive victory . They shattered Huáscar ' s army once again , captured Huáscar himself , and shortly thereafter conquered his capital Cusco for Atahualpa . The civil war was thereafter decided , and Atahualpa should have become sole ruler of the mighty Inca Empire had he not been captured himself by Francisco Pizarro in Cajamarca .
