M17 gas mask The M17 Protective Mask is a series of gas mask s that were designed and produced in 1959 ( as a replacement of the M - 9 gas mask ) to provide protection from all types of known chemical and biological agents present . The M - 17 was issued to troops in the Vietnam war , and was standard issue for the U . S Army until it was replaced by the M - 40 in the late 1980s and early 1990s . The mask has different components including a filter , a face piece and outserts . Filter elements in the face piece prevent harmful agents from entering the mask . The M17 series includes three types of masks , the M17 , M17A1 and M17A2 . An experimental transparent - silicone model was designed in 1966 , but was turned down . Many countries have copied the M - 17 design . Notable copies include the Bulgarian PDE - 1 , the Polish Mp - 4 , and the Czech M - 10 . These protective masks have inbuilt systems that facilitate communication , a tube for drinking water ( A1 & A2 ) , and a pair of outserts to protect eye lenses and prevent fogging . The mask is packed in a carrier that also contains other items like a nerve agent antidote kit ( NAAK ) and a convulsive antidote for nerve agent s ( CANA ) . It also contains a waterproof bag to protect filter elements from water damage . Other components attached are mask hoods to protect the head and neck area , a winterization kit to prevent frost accumulation during cold weather conditions and optical inserts for soldiers with vision defects . The A1 had a mask to mask resuscitation feature that was found to expose personnel to chemical agents . This forced the services to withdraw it from issue and replace it with the A2 without the feature . The mask offers protection from harmful agents , but does not function properly in places where oxygen content is low . The mask is not meant to be used for firefighting and does not provide protection from radiation . It is recommended that users continue wearing it until the biological or chemical agent is identified and cleared from the contaminated area . The M - 17 series protective masks were phased out in the 1990s , replaced by the M40 Field Protective Mask .

Officer Commanding The Officer Commanding ( OC ) is the commander of a sub - unit or minor unit ( smaller than battalion size ) , principally used in the United Kingdom and Commonwealth .

However , the commanders of independent units of smaller than company size , detachments and administrative organisations , such as schools or wings , may also be designated Officers Commanding . The term Officer Commanding cannot be applied to any officer who is given command of a minor unit . For example , a platoon commander whose platoon is part of a company would not be an Officer Commanding . The Officer Commanding with power over that platoon would be the company OC . Officer Commanding is an appointment that confers a level of additional powers and responsibilities on the appointee . Officers Commanding are generally given the same power and responsibilities as Commanding Officers of battalions and regiment s . They are held responsible for the unit ' s properties and monies , can hear disciplinary charges against soldier s , sailor s , or airmen under their command , and can delegate these powers .

Sack of Baltimore The Sack of Baltimore took place on June 20 , 1631 , when the village of Baltimore , West Cork , Ireland , was attacked by North Africa n pirates from the North African Barbary Coast . The attack was the biggest single attack by the Barbary pirates on Ireland or Britain . The attack was led by a Dutch captain turned pirate , Jan Janszoon van Haarlem , also known as Murad Reis the Younger . Murad ' s force was led to the village by a man called Hackett , the captain of a fishing boat he had captured earlier , in exchange for his freedom . Hackett was subsequently hanged from the clifftop outside the village for his conspiracy . Murad ' s crew , made up of Dutchmen , Algerian s and Ottoman Turks , launched their covert attack on the remote village on June 20 , 1631 . They captured 108 English settlers , who worked a pilchard industry in the village , and some local Irish people . The attack was focused on the area of the village known to this day as the Cove . The villagers were put in irons and taken to a life of slavery in North Africa . Some prisoners were destined to live out their days as galley slaves , while others would spend long years in the seclusion of the Sultan ' s harem or within the walls of the Sultan ' s palace as laborers . At most three of them ever saw Ireland again . One was ransomed almost at once and two others in 1646 . Since several others are known to have been still alive in 1646 why they were not ransomed is unclear : it has been argued that Algerians , on the whole , treated household slaves kindly enough , and that after fifteen years some may simply have preferred to remain where they were . Conspiracy theories abound relating to the raid . It has been suggested Sir Walter Coppinger , ( a prominent Catholic lawyer and member of the leading Cork family ) , who had become the dominant power in the area after the death of Sir Thomas Crooke , 1st Baronet , the founder of the English colony , orchestrated the raid to gain control of the village from the local Gaelic chieftain , Fineen O ' Driscoll . It was O ' Driscoll who had licenced the lucrative pilchard industry in Baltimore to the English settlers . Suspicion also points to O ' Driscoll ' s exiled relatives , who had fled to Spain after the Battle of Kinsale , and had no hope of inheriting Baltimore by legal means . On the other hand Murad may have planned the raid without any help ; it is notable that the authorities had advance intelligence of a planned raid on the Cork coast , although Kinsale was thought to be the likely target . In the aftermath of the raid , the remaining settlers moved to Skibbereen , and Baltimore was virtually deserted for generations . The incident inspired Thomas Osborne Davis to write his famous poem , " The Sack of Baltimore " . A detailed account of the sack of Baltimore can be found in the book " The Stolen Village : Baltimore and the Barbary Pirates " by Des Ekin . In 1999 , the raid on Baltimore was portrayed in a screenplay titled " " Roaring Water , The Sack of Baltimore " " , by Irish screenwriter Sean Boyle .
