Joseph Finnegan ( cryptographer ) Joseph Finnegan was a US linguist and cryptanalyst with Station Hypo during the Second World War . War contribution . In 2002 , Tex Biard described Finnegan as " intuitive " and " brilliant " , and second only to Station Hypo chief Joseph J . Rochefort , saying that Finnegan ' s survival of the bombing of the " USS Tennessee " was a " fatal mistake " on the part of the Japanese , and that Finnegan ' s survival " cost ( the Japanese ) the war . " Edwin T . Layton , in his book " " And I Was There : Pearl Harbor and Midway - - Breaking the Secrets " " ( 1985 ) recounts a tremendous effort by Finnegan on the Hypo team concerning the exact date on which the attack on Midway would occur . This involved the date - time groups in Japanese naval messages . Layton refers to the date - time data as being “ superenciphered , ” meaning that this data was preencoded even before it was added to the JN - 25 cipher . When Hypo made their all - out effort to crack this , they started by searching the stacks of printouts and punched cards for five - digit number sequences . Those they found were in low grade codes , a poor starting point , but a starting point . Layton describes this method as " involving a 12 x 31 ( 12 rows for months , 31 columns for day ) garble check . The 31 kana [ Japanese syllabic scripts ] of the first row were A , I , U , E , O , KA , KI … … … … … . HA , HI , HU , HE , HO . The second row was I , U , E , O … … … … … HE , HO , A ; the third , U , E , O … … … . HO , A , I , and so on , for 12 rows . At the left , representing the 12 months , was a column of 12 kana , different from those in the table – SA , AI , SU , SE , SO , TA , TI , TU , TE , TO , NA , NI ( SA for January , NI for December ) . To encipher , for example 27 May , one picked the 5th line ( May = SO ) , ran across to the twenty - seventh column , HA , and recorded the kana at that intersection , HO . The encipherment , then , was SO , HA , HO , the third kana providing the garble check . " ( Layton , pp . 427 – 428 ) An intercept of 26 May with orders for two destroyer groups escorting invasion transports was analyzed with this table and “ really clinched the pivotal date of the operation ” as either 4 or 5 June .
E M I L E M I L was a secret tank development project in Sweden during the early 1950s , better known under its cover - name KRV ( short for KRANVAGN , meaning mobile crane ) . The intention was to replace the disparate tank - fleet with a heavy tank , that could be upgraded continuously . The project was discontinued during development and only two chassis were built , and those chassis were later rebuilt and served as testing platforms for the " Artillerikanonvagn 151 " and " Stridsvagn 103 " projects . Project . At the end of World War II , it was clear that the mix of tanks in service in the Swedish Armed Forces was not just obsolete but also presented a large logistical problem . Kungliga Arméförvaltningens Tygavdelning ( KAFT ) conducted a study that concluded that the most cost - effective alternative would be to purchase the newly developed Centurion Mk 3 , which while quite modern was judged to have upgrade potential for future requirements . A request of purchase was sent to the United Kingdom , but the reply was that no deliveries could be made before the needs of the British Army had been meet which was deemed to take between five and fifteen years . Thus , in 1951 , the vehicle bureau of KAFT set about to develop an indigenously manufactured alternative , which they did in great secrecy under the guise of constructing a mobile crane . Parallel with this , negotiations were entered with France about buying the AMX - 13 light tank . All this came to an abrupt halt when the British in early December 1952 under pressure of their poor economy offered to sell the desired Centurions immediately . The Swedish Minister for Defence , Torsten Nilsson , ended the debate about the future tank purchase by ( on his on initiative ) signing a deal with the British at the beginning of 1953 with the first Centurion deliveries taking place in April 1953 . The delegation in France was forced to depart under heavy apologies while the E M I L - project was terminated . A consortium of Landsverk , Bofors and Volvo suggested to revive it for the Försvarsbeslut 1958 ( white paper of Swedish defence policies 1958 ) where the replacement for the now ageing Centurions were to be decided upon . E M I L was however regarded as too costly and instead the S - tank proposal was put forward for the final draft which it won and it subsequently became the Stridsvagn 103 . Construction . The project was split into two parts ; hull and armament . For the first studies and trials a chassis which resembled a low IS - 7 was built . Three main options were considered for armament : The ammunition feed regardless of gun was planned to be a dual - drum autoloader allowing for quick selection of ordnance ( armor - piercing or high explosive ) .

DFW Mars The DFW Mars was an early German military utility aircraft built in 1913 and was the first original design manufactured by DFW . The aircraft was produced in both monoplane and biplane versions , which shared a common fuselage and empennage . The monoplane version featured wings that were wire - braced to a kingpost on the forward fuselage , and was powered by a 71 kW ( 90 hp ) NAG engine . Examples of the monoplane built as dedicated trainer aircraft also incorporated a reinforcing truss beneath the wings . The biplane had conventional three - bay wings of unequal span and was powered by a 75 kW ( 100 hp ) Mercedes engine . The wings of both the monoplane and biplane versions featured prominent sweepback . Mars aircraft distinguished themselves in pre - war passenger - carrying feats and reliability trials , and were purchased by both the German military and the British Admiralty , which purchased an example for the RNAS . Turkish Mars aircraft were flown in the First and Second Balkan War s in 1912 - 1913 and the type is therefore believed to be the first German - built aircraft to have seen active military service .

The regular corps of the SKNDF consists of : The Coast Guard ' s lone off shore patrol vessel was donated by the United States Reserve Corps . The reserve corps of the SKNDF consists of : History . The SKNDF was originally formed as a volunteer unit in 1896 in response to riots in several sugar plantations . The regular defence force did not come into being however until 1967 , when it was decided that a regular army was needed following public disturbances on the island of Anguilla , which was attempting to secede from its federation with Saint Kitts and Nevis , and the determination that the existing volunteer force was not adequately trained to deal with the situation . The first Defence ' s manpower came from the Royal St . Christopher and Nevis Police Force ' s Tactical Unit and the Special Service Unit . The forming of the regular defence force was a major policy of the ruling Labour Party , and was adamantly opposed by the opposition People ' s Action Movement ( PAM ) . Thus , when the PAM came to power in 1980 , they made the decision to disband the regular force , leaving only the reserve . However , the election of Denzil Douglas in 1997 saw the new government reform the regulars . Mission . The SKNDF performs a number of roles . The primary mission of the land force element is the internal security of St Kitts and Nevis , in conjunction with the local police , while the coast Guard is responsible for guarding the country ' s territorial waters . One of the major roles of the entire SKNDF is the war on drugs , which is often undertaken together with the local police and the Royal Navy . The SKNDF is also used in the provision of relief after natural disasters , and in overseas peacekeeping roles .
