The Affair at Little Egg Harbor The Affair at Little Egg Harbor took place on October 15 , 1778 , place in southern New Jersey , USA , during the American Revolution . In what the Americans called a massacre , the Loyalists killed nearly 50 Patriot men , bayonetting them as they slept . The attack took place about one week after the Battle of Chestnut Neck , a British raid aimed at suppressing privateer s who used the area as a base to harass and seize British ships and their cargoes . Background . Captain Patrick Ferguson led a raid on Chestnut Neck , on the Mullica River , to retrieve supplies taken by privateers and try to stop their use of the town as a base for the distribution of their prizes and shipment of captured goods to General Washington at Valley Forge . Count Kazimierz Pułaski and his newly raised forces were ordered to oppose his actions . Pulaski ' s Legion , along with three companies of light infantry , three troops of light horse , and one artillery detachment , arrived the day after Ferguson departed Chestnut Neck . But their arrival did stop Ferguson from raiding the iron works at Batsto , and stemmed their attacks on privateers at The Forks of the Mullica River . For a week the two forces were at a standoff . Attack . Pulaski ' s troops were deserters , mainly , as well as a number of foreign adventurers . They reached the Little Egg Harbor district ( near present - day Tuckerton ) , and immediately set up camp on a farm . Lt . Gustav Juliet , a deserter , found Ferguson and told him of Pulaski ' s encampment ; he mentioned that morale was fairly low , and security almost nonexistent . Ferguson promptly loaded 250 of his best men onto boats and rowed them , in the dark , some ten miles to what is now Osborne Island . He marched them two miles to the site of the infantry outpost , which comprised fifty men a short distance from the main encampment . At first light , Ferguson ordered the attack ; he took only five prisoners and killed nearly 50 men . Pulaski eventually led up his mounted troops up , causing Ferguson to retreat to his boats , leaving a few men who had fallen into the Patriot colonists ' hands .
McDonnell Douglas F - 15E Strike Eagle The McDonnell Douglas ( now boeing ) F - 15E Strike Eagle is the only F - 15 Variant ( Besides F - 15SE Silent Eagle ) that is a dedicated to all weather Air - to - Ground missions , his mainly visible differences with the normal F - 15C Eagle is his camouflage and that the Strike Eagle uses conformal tanks . Description . The F - 15E is a fighter - bomber aircraft designed to replace the F - 111F Aardvark as the USAF ' s strike fighter ( another name for fighter - bomber ) . The plans for a ground attack Eagle were formed ever since testing began of the original F - 15A Eagle . However , it was abandoned in 1975 , primarily due to increasing costs . It was revived in 1982 when trials began with an F - 15B . The production model first flew December 11 , 1986 , after it was chosen over its competitor , the F - 16XL . The F - 15 ' s cockpit is state - of - the - art and the pilot has a wide angle Heads - Up Display as well as 3 Multi - Function Displays , while the Weapons Systems Operator ( in the back seat ) has 4 MFD ' s . The F - 15E is based on the F - 15C Eagle air superiority fighter . The Strike Eagle acquired air - to - ground capability , while retaining the F - 15C ' s outstanding air - to - air capability . The disadvantage that the F - 15E had to the F - 111 , which it was criticized for in its early life , was the fact that the F - 15E didn ' t have the internal range ( 2 , 994 miles in the F - 111 to 2 , 100 miles in the F - 15E ) nor the weapons payload capability ( 31 , 302 lbs to 24 , 471 lbs ) as the Aardvark . However , despite these shortcomings , the F - 15E is one of the most powerful aircraft in the U . S . arsenal . Strike Eagles were used in other countries , including Israel ( Modificated as F - 15I Ra ' am , which means " Thunder " ) , South Korea ( Modified as F - 15K Slam Eagle ) , Saudi Arabia ( F - 15S ) , and Singapore ( F - 15SG , formerly F - 15T ) . Boeing has begun work on the F - 15SE Silent Eagle , a stealth version of the F - 15E with internal payoad ability . The F - 15SE has failed the Japanese F - X program .
Minerva - class corvette The " Minerva " - class is a series of corvettes of the Italian Marina Militare . They were built in two series of four units in the 1980s and 1990s .

These units are designed to operate in coastal areas . Their main missions include sea police , patrolling , policing fishing areas and training naval commandos . Ships of the class . As of 2013 , " Minerva " and " Sibilla " have been placed in reserve . These two units of the Minerva - class Corvettes were considered by the Philippine Government to be purchased , although , there were still no additional information about the acquisition of the ships .

Capability Development Document A Capability Development Document ( CDD ) provides operational performance attributes , including supportability , for those responsible for the acquisition of military equipment in the military of the United States . It includes " key performance parameter s " ( KPPs ) and other parameters that guide the development , demonstration , and testing of the current increment . It also outlines the overall strategy for developing full capability . The format for the CDD was formerly spelled out in the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Manual ( CJCSM ) 3170 . 01 . The most current version is only available online and requires a Common Access Card ( CAC ) card and an Intelink account . The link is https : / / www . intelink . gov / wiki / JCIDS _ Manual The description of system capabilities in a CDD follows the identification of operational needs in an Initial Capabilities Document ( ICD ) . As the system described goes through its design and development phases , and is approved for production , the CDD is followed by a Capabilities Production Document . This is fundamentally the same document , but describes the system as it will be built , not just as it is planned . Contents . In the words of CJCSM 3170 . 01 , the CDD is " the sponsor ’ s primary means of defining authoritative , measurable , and testable capabilities needed by the warfighters to support the SDD [ System Design and Definition ] phase of an acquisition program . " The prescribed format of the CDD is :

Warship Preservation Trust The Warship Preservation Trust was based in Birkenhead , Wirral , England and hosted Europe ' s largest collection of preserved warships .

Without a replacement berthing agreement , the Trust subsequently went into voluntary liquidation . By default , ownership of the collection transferred to the Mersey Docks and Harbour Company ( MDHC ) following the demise of the Trust . Plymouth City Council had expressed an interest in HMS " Plymouth " , and the HMS " Plymouth " Preservation Trust undertook to raise the £250 , 000 needed to bring the warship back to her home city . It had been hoped that the frigate could be berthed at Millbay Docks , but the offer of a berth was withdrawn in January 2007 by Associated British Ports . In May 2006 HMS " Onyx " was sold to the Barrow - in - Furness businessman Joe Mullen , for a reported £100 , 000 as a ' gift to the people of Barrow ' .

On 27 June 2007 , the Merseytravel transit authority announced that it had acquired " U - 534 " to display at the Woodside Ferry Terminal . For technical reasons and to facilitate economical transportation to its new site , the vessel was cut into four sections . It will be displayed in this form to allow visitors better access and visibility . Beginning on 10 March 2008 , the sections , each weighing up to 240 tonnes , were transported to Woodside by floating crane over a number of days . The future of the remainder of the collection is uncertain .
