Navy service under the control of the Military Sea Transport Service , later the Military Sealift Command , with a primarily civilian crew in April 1957 .

Huguet de Mataplana Huguet de Mataplana ( after 1173 – 28 November 1213 ) was a Catalan nobleman and poet . His name , also spelled Uget , is the diminutive form of Hug ( also spelled Huc or Uc ) , which is the Occitan version of " Hugh " ( French " Hugues " ) . Huguet was the nephew of Ponç de Mataplana , who was attacked in a poem by the troubadour Guillem de Berguedà and whose death was later lamented by that same troubadour in a " planh " . Huguet ' s name appears in documents regularly between 1185 and his death . In 1197 , for the first time in a surviving document , a woman , Sança , is named as his wife . He derives his name from the lordship he held at Mataplana near Nuestra Señora de Mongrony in the Ripollès . He was a frequent attendee at the courts of Alfonso II of Aragon and his son Peter II , figuring extensively in their royal charters . He was said to be a favorite of Peter . According to the " Historias y conquestas " of Pere Tomich ( 1438 ) , a late source , Huguet was present at the Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa in 1212 . He was wounded at the Battle of Muret the next year and died of his wounds a few months later . Peter II died at this battle . According to the " Llibre dels fets " of Peter ' s son , James I , Huguet was one of those who fled the field at Muret . Huguet was the patron of the troubadour Raimon Vidal de Bezaudun . According to " Abrils issia " , by Raimon , Huguet was an intimate and patron of " joglars " , the travelling performers of troubadours ' songs . In another poem , " So fo el temps " , Raimon describes in detail Huguet ' s sumptuous court at Mataplana . It has been suggested that Raimon was Huguet ' s teacher and grammarian . Of Huguet ' s poetic output , three " tenso s " and one " sirventes " are conserved . He composed " En Blanchacet , eu sui de noit " and " En Diable , vos es per dar enoi " , his two " tensos " with a Blacatz ( or possibly with Blacasset ) , while the two were both young . His patronage of " joglars " did not stop him from attacking one Reculaire in the " sirventes " " Scometre . us vuoill , Reculaire " . Huguet ' s most studied work is " D ' un sirventes m ' es pres talens " , in which he abuses his good friend Raimon de Miraval for disowning his wife , Caudairenga . The " sirventes " comes with a long " razo " explaining the circumstances of its composition . Raimon has left a response .

Advantage of terrain An Advantage of terrain occurs when military personnel gain an advantage over an enemy utilizing , or simply in spite of , the terrain around them . The term does not exclusively apply to battle s , and can be used more generally regarding entire campaigns or theaters of war . Mountains , for example , can block off certain areas , making it unnecessary to station troops within the inaccessible area . This deployment strategy can be applied with other formidable environmental features as well , such as forests and cliffs . In the former instance , dense vegetation can provide concealment for tactical movements such as setting up an ambush . In the latter , the elevation can provide an advantage to soldiers using projectile weapons , such as arrow s or artillery pieces . Elevation itself is perhaps the most well - known example of terrain advantage , with gravity working to the advantage of the more elevated party . While securing a terrain advantage is an important consideration for a modern commander , particularly those engaged in unconventional tactics such as guerrilla warfare , it was undoubtedly of even greater concern for pre - industrial forces , as lack of mobility and first generation warfare left soldiers very vulnerable to its effects . The ancient military strategist Sun - Tzu , for example , dedicated an entire chapter in his influential treatise " The Art of War " to terrain and situational positioning .

As the cavalry attained a foothold on the Eastern bank , the Gauls approached , ready to fight . At this point Hanno ' s force attacked the Gauls ' rear causing enough confusion to force the Gauls to retreat . At the Battle of Cannae Hanno led the Numidian cavalry on the right ( northern ) side of the Carthaginian army . Hasdrubal led the Spanish and Celtic cavalry on the left ( south near the Aufidus river ) of the Carthaginian army . Hasdrubal was given about 6 , 500 cavalry , and Hanno had 3 , 500 Numidians .
