Truppführer Truppführer was a Nazi Party paramilitary rank that was first created in 1930 as a rank of the " Sturmabteilung " ( SA ) , or Nazi Stormtrooper s . Translated as " Troop Leader " , the rank of Truppführer evolved from early " Freikorps " titles which traced their origins to World War I . As an SA rank , " Truppführer " was considered the equivalent of a senior sergeant , or sergeant first class . The rank of SA - " Truppführer " was at first considered senior to that of SA - " Scharführer " , but after 1932 was ranked above the new rank of SA - " Oberscharführer " . The insignia for a basic " Truppführer " consisted of two button pips on a collar patch . A " Truppführer " normally served as the SA - non - commissioned officer of platoon sized " SA - Truppen " , formed into company sized " SA - Sturm " . The responsibilities of a " Truppführer " typically increased upon promotion to " Obertruppführer " and " Haupttruppführer " , as did the number of troops under the " Truppführer ’ s " command . Between 1930 and 1934 , " Truppführer " was also used as an SS rank but was abolished after the Night of the Long Knives when the rank of SS - " Truppführer " was renamed SS - " Oberscharführer " .
Memorial gates and arches Memorial gates and arches are architectural monuments in the form of gates and arches or other entrances , constructed as a memorial , often dedicated to a particular war though some are dedicated to individuals . The function is similar but different to that of a triumphal arch , with the emphasis on remembrance and commemoration , rather than celebration and victory , though some memorial arches perform both functions . They can vary in size , but are commonly monumental stone structures combining features of both an archway and a gate , often forming an entrance or straddling a roadway , but sometimes constructed in isolation as a standalone structure , or on a smaller scale as a local memorial to war dead . Although they can share architectural features with triumphal arches , memorial arches and gates constructed from the 20th century onwards often have the names of the dead inscribed on them as an act of commemoration .

" The Breguet Bre . 4 , also known variously as the Type IV and BUM , was a French biplane bomber of World War I . A fighter version of it also was produced as the BUC and BLC ; some of these saw service with the British Royal Navy , which called them ' the Breguet ' de Chasse " . Design and development . The Bre . 4 was developed during 1914 when French military planners began to express a preference for pusher - over tractor - configured aircraft , leading Breguet Aviation to cease further development of its original Type IV design and pursue military contracts with an aircraft of the preferred layout . The Type IV was a two - bay , equal - span , unstaggered biplane that seated the pilot and observer in tandem open cockpits in a nacelle that also carried the pusher engine at its rear , and the tricycle undercarriage . As the prototype neared completion , the Breguet factory at Douai was threatened by the advancing German Army , and the machine and its builders were evacuated to Villacoublay where construction and testing were completed . At this point , André and Édouard Michelin approached the French government with an offer to sponsor the construction of 100 bombers for the French Army , and were awarded a licence to the Breguet design . This was put into production as the BUM ( B for pusher - driven , U for Canton - Unné - powered , M for Michelin ) . A later revised bersion , the BLM , was the definitive Renault - powered version . Soon after the BUM entered service , the French Army requested that an escort fighter version be developed to protect the bombers from interception . Breguet responded with a lightened design armed with a 37 mm ( 1 . 46 in ) Hotchkiss cannon intended to pick off enemy fighters before they closed to within range of their machine guns . This entered production as the BUC ( C for " chasse " , or pursuit ) in its original Canton - Unné powered version and BLC in its Renault version . Operational history . French service . Few of the BUC and BLC escort fighters were built , as their performance and utility were discovered to be lacking , and the doctrine of the cannon - armed escort fighter was soon abandoned in favour of countering fighters with other similar fighters .

The Royal Navy called them the Breguet de Chasse .
