Battle of Novara ( 1513 ) The Battle of Novara was a battle of the War of the League of Cambrai fought on June 6 , 1513 , near Novara , in Northern Italy . The French had been victorious at Ravenna the previous year . Nevertheless , the French under King Louis XII were driven out of the city of Milan the following month by the Holy League . In 1513 , the French army of 10 , 000 under Louis de la Trémoille was stationed at Novara , which they were besieging , the city being held by some of the Duke of Milan ' s Swiss mercenaries , who , it is argued , may have intended to annex part ( or all ) of Milan to the Confederation . Novara , c . 40 kilometers west of Milan , was the second most important city of the Milanese duchy . However , the French were surprised at their camp there on June 6 by a Swiss relief army of some 13 , 000 troops , come to relieve the mercenaries in the town . The German " Landsknecht " mercenaries of the French , pike - armed like the Swiss , were able to form up into heavy squares , and the French were able to deploy some of their artillery . Despite this , the Swiss onslaught , sweeping in from multiple directions due to forced marches which achieved encirclement of the French camp , took the French guns , pushed back the Landsknecht infantry regiments , and destroyed the Landsknecht squares . Caught off guard , the French heavy cavalry , their decisive arm , was unable to properly deploy , and played little role in the fight . The battle was particularly bloody , with 5 , 000 casualties ( other sources state up to 10 , 000 ) on the French side , and moderate losses for the Swiss pikemen , mostly suffered from the French artillery as the Swiss moved into the attack . 700 men were killed in three minutes due to heavy artillery fire . Additionally , after the battle , the Swiss executed the hundreds of German mercenaries they had captured who had fought for the French . Having routed the French army , the Swiss were unable to launch a close pursuit because of their lack of cavalry , but several contingents of Swiss did follow the French withdrawal all the way to Dijon before the French paid them off to leave France . The Swiss captured 22 French guns with their carriages . The French defeat forced Louis XII to withdraw from Milan and Italy in general , and led to the temporary restoration of Duke Maximilian Sforza , although he was widely regarded to be the puppet of his Swiss mercenaries and " allies " , who held real military power in Milan .
Battle of Nam Dong The Battle of Nam Dong was fought on July 5 until the next day on in 1964 , when the Viet Cong and PAVN attacked the Nam Dong CIDG camp in an attempt to overrun it . Battle . Nam Dong is situated 32 miles west of Da Nang in a valley near the Laotian border ; it was manned by South Vietnamese personnel with American and Australian advisers , and served as a major thorn in the side of local Vietcong militants . The Viet Cong struck at the camp at 2 : 30 a . m . to achieve the element of surprise , and reached the outer perimeter where South Vietnamese special forces managed to hold out . The battle lasted for five hours when the Viet Cong decided to abort the mission , fleeing into the jungle at sunrise . At 9 : 45 a . m . six USMC helicopters arrived to extract the special forces . At the end of the battle , a total of 372 allies ( twelve American Green Berets , 300 South Vietnamese , and sixty Nung soldiers ) held off deadly attacks against 900 NVA and Vietcong , often pinning Viet Cong groups in the narrow cliffs leading into the valley , where they were easily targeted by artillery . Captain R . C . Donlon became the first American to be awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam for valiantly killing two Vietcong sapper s and thereby preventing them from breaching the Nam Dong base , while sustaining shrapnel wounds in the process . Aftermath . It was at this contact that the Australian member of the Australian Army Training Team ( Vietnam ) AATTV , Warrant Officer Kevin Conway , was cited by his commander , then Colonel Francis Philip ( Ted ) Serong for a Victoria Cross , the highest gallantry award for Australian service personnel . Kevin Conway was in a forward weapon pit with an American Master Sergeant , Gabriel Alamo , who was killed in the North Vietnamese assault . Conway alone fired his mortar upon the assaulting enemy in ever decreasing range fire until he was forced to bring his mortar fire upon himself to save the perimeter of the base . Sergeant Terrance D . Terrin , U . S . Army Green Beret Medic , was awarded the silver star for gallantry in battle . Warrant Officer Conway has never received the cited award for valour . He was the first Australian to be killed in action in the Vietnam war . Serong stated that it was American Special Forces politics that denied Conway his Victoria Cross . M / Sgt Alamo was posthumously awarded the Distinguished Service Cross . " The Green Berets " . A key battle scene in the 1968 film " The Green Berets " was based on this battle .

Zuckerman helmet The Zuckerman helmet ( officially known as Civilian Protective Helmet ) was a British helmet designed for use by civil defence organisations and the general public during World War II . It was researched and designed by Solly Zuckerman , Derman Christopherson and Hugh Cairns . Background . Zuckerman and Cairns first started looking into a design for a helmet to aid civil defence in the middle of 1940 . The aim was to provide a helmet that could deal with impact from falling and flying masonry and provide more coverage for the head and neck area . After the War Office accepted their design , the " Civilian Protective Helmet " went into circulation in December 1940 and then throughout 1941 ( the vast majority are therefore dated 1941 ) . Helmets were made from pressed mild steel or manganese steel ( known for its impact resistance ) in two sizes only and sometimes marked with either M ( medium ) or L ( large ) on the inside of the brim . The design of the high dome was to allow the helmet to withstand impact and still protect the wearer . Many have two single holes opposite each other on the brim . This marking details the amount of resistance the helmet offered to ballistic impact ( this being the lowest and therefore not for use as a frontline helmet ) . The helmet was available in a number of colours - white , black , grey and olive green . A helmet liner made of leather and webbing was attached to the helmet with string , lace or leather thong threaded through 16 pre - drilled slightly angled holes around the helmet to hold it in place . Small loops were incorporated on the helmet for attaching a chinstrap but no official strap was issued , though many use the Mk II helmet chinstrap . Consequently , helmets can be found with numerous chin strap variations . The helmet was manufactured by a number of companies , among them the Austin Motor Co . and Morris Motors . Service . Zuckerman helmets were issued to Civil Defence personnel such as Fire Guards and Street Fire Parties , by factory workers and were on sale to the general public for 5 shillings and sixpence ( 5s 6d ) . When used by Fire Guards and Street Fire Party personnel the helmets were marked accordingly with " FG " or " SFP " . Bands around the helmet ( often in black ) would denote seniority within the Fire Guard service . The fire service declined to use the Zuckerman helmet , preferring the Mk II helmet .

Plan X Plan X is a five - year DARPA research project on cyberwarfare . The aim is to develop technologies to launch attacks on enemy systems , not only protect their own systems as has been the case in former United States military operations . The project will start in the summer of 2012 and has a budget of $ 110 million . One of the project ' s goals is to create a detailed map of the entirety of cyberspace which will be continuously updated . Another goal is to create a new and more robust operating system which will also be able to launch attacks .
