Totnes Castle Totnes Castle is one of the best preserved examples of a Norman motte and bailey castle in England . It is situated in the town of Totnes on the River Dart in Devon . The surviving stone keep and curtain wall date from around the 14th century . History . The castle occupies a commanding position atop a large hill above the town , and guards the approach to three valleys . The first castle on this site is believed to have been built by the Breton Juhel of Totnes ( also known as Judhael ) who was one of William the Conqueror ' s lieutenant s . The manor of Totnes was granted to him in 1068 , and in order to cement his control over the area he constructed a fortification and founded a priory within the town . However , this first construction probably consisted of a wooden palisade and tower . On the death of William I , Juhel lost his lands , possibly as a result of his support for the Rebellion of 1088 . The manor of Totnes was then granted to Roger de Nonant , whose descendants appear to have held the manor for the next three generations . Following this it came into the possession of William de Braose , who is probably responsible for constructing the first stone shell keep and walls on the site . By 1326 , the castle had fallen into ruin and was under the control the de la Zouch family . During this period a royal order was made for the repair of the fortifications . As a result of the order , the castle was refortified with a new shell keep a stable constructed and a constable appointed , using Devonian limestone and red sandstone for the construction . However , following the Wars of the Roses it once again fell into disrepair . The castle was occupied for a period during the English Civil War but saw no notable action . Today . Since 1984 , the castle has been under the stewardship of English Heritage . The castle is a scheduled monument and a Grade I * listed building .

It was also known as " 6 - Mile or 6 - Mile Drome " by Americans , for its distance from Port Moresby . History . Wards Airfield was built for heavy bombers and transport planes . By 1943 , it was the busiest aerodrome in the southern hemisphere . Mainly used for Cargo aircraft and larger planes , Ward ' s was nearest to Jackson Airfield ( 7 Mile Drome ) , and at its height , its taxiways actually connected with those of 7 - mile . The major operational organization at Wards Airfield was the Headquarters , 54th Troop Carrier Wing ( 3 May 1943 – 18 April 1944 ) . Operational C - 47 Skytrain groups and squadrons assigned to the airfield were : Several Reconnaissance groups were assigned to Wards to support Fifth Air Force operations : In addition the 90th Bombardment Group also based two B - 24 Liberator squadrons at the airfield .

Battle of Young ' s Point The Battle of Young ' s Point was an engagement in the American Civil War that took place in Madison Parish , Louisiana , on June 7 , 1863 . It had an observable influence on the direction and conduct of the Vicksburg Campaign . The inability of the Confederates to destroy the vital Union supply depot at Young ' s Point and thus force Maj . Gen . Ulysses S . Grant to loosen his grip on Vicksburg contributed to the ultimate surrender of the city on July 4 . Background . Young ' s Point , a small town on the Mississippi River , was occupied by the Union Army of the Tennessee after the Battle of Chickasaw Bayou on December 27 – 29 , 1862 . It was used as a staging area for the Arkansas Post Expedition and as a headquarters by Maj . Gen . Ulysses S . Grant and of the XV Corps during the winter of 1862 - 63 . It was used by Adm . David D . Porter ' s Mississippi River Squadron as an advanced naval station during that time . Engagement . As the veterans of Brig . Gen . Henry E . McCulloch ' s brigade of Walker ' s Greyhounds battled and lost to inexperienced Federal troops at Milliken ' s Bend , their fellow Texans of Brig . Gen . James M . Hawes ' s brigade moved against Young ' s Point . Provided with inefficient local guides and faulty intelligence , Hawes ' s Brigade , 1 , 400 - strong , left Richmond ( south of Tallula ) at 7 : 00 p . m . on June 6 . Lack of reconnaissance led the brigade to consume 17 hours to march 11 miles , because the men had to halt for 4½ hours at a damaged bridge over Walnut Bayou , while scouts searched for a suitable crossing point . Instead of arriving at dawn as planned , the exhausted brigade reached the vicinity of Young ' s Point at 10 : 30 a . m . Informed that his men could approach the Federal encampment through woods , Hawes was shocked as his command debouched on to the open fields of a level plain in full view of the Federal camp situated below Young ' s Point some 1½ miles in the distance . As the Texans advanced across the fields , they saw Federal reinforcements arrive by transports supported by gunboats . Realizing that the chances for success had disappeared , Hawes ordered his troops to retire . Thus , Confederate efforts at Young ' s Point ended in failure . Aftermath . Young ' s Point was used as a major Union supply depot and trans - shipping point throughout the Vicksburg Campaign .
Imus Assembly The Imus Assembly was the meeting held between the " Magdalo " and " Magdiwang " factions of the Katipunan at Imus , Cavite , Philippines , on December 31 , 1896 . This was convened in order to settle the leadership dispute between the two factions . The assembly , presided by Andres Bonifacio , was to discuss whether to retain the current Katipunan government or to set up a new revolutionary government . The Magdalo supported the idea of having a revolutionary government while the Magdiwang favored the old Katipunan government . The assembly , however , failed to have a firm resolution . According to Santiago Alvarez and Artemio Ricarte , the assembly agreed to appoint Bonifacio as the head of a legislative committee and to authorize him to appoint members he considers worthy . It is , however , uncertain whether Bonifacio did appoint members of the committee . At this meeting also , a Magdalo engineer and general named Edilberto Evangelista submitted a draft of a constitution both requested by the two factions . Bonifacio ignored the constitution since the Katipunan already had its own laws .
