Siegfried Herford Siegfried Herford ( 1891 – 1916 ) was a British climber who was active in the years immediately before World War I . He and John Laycock and Stanley Jeffcoat initiated what is referred to as " gritstone climbing " in England , bouldering on large blocks at the base of the cliffs , and roping up to climb the edges and faces above . Life . As a child he may have been autistic , subject to long periods of silence punctuated by violent outbursts of physical energy — behaviour coupled with a natural proclivity to mathematical thought . Siegfried enrolled at the University of Manchester in 1909 , in the School of Engineering , and dabbled at rock climbing for a year or so . By 1911 he had invented the " girdle traverse " , practising at Castle Naze in the Derbyshire Peak District before applying his concept to the face of Scafell . Although Herford spent considerable time on the crags , the quality of his academic work was superior , and he was at the top of his class in mathematics and physics when he graduated in 1912 . He then received a postgraduate scholarship which allowed him to do aeronautical research at the Royal Aircraft Factory at Farnborough . In the spring of 1914 , Herford , with three companions , climbed the Central Buttress of Scafell , negotiating the crux — the notorious Flake Pitch — after reconnoitering the difficulties from above , as well as below . ( Herford was an advocate of downclimbing , and wrote an article — " The Doctrine of Descent " — published in the 1913 " Fell & Rock Climbing Club Journal " . ) Although some " combined tactics " were employed , the climb was a substantial benchmark in British rock climbing , coming in at HVS ( 5 . 9 ) . With the War in full swing , and having failed to obtain a commission due to his Teutonic heritage , Herford enlisted as a private in the Royal Fusiliers , and was killed by a grenade blast January 28 , 1916 .

Virée de Galerne The Virée de Galerne was a military operation of the War in the Vendée during the French Revolutionary Wars across Britanny and Normandy .

It concerns the Vendean army ' s crossing of the River Loire after their defeat in the battle of Cholet on 17 October 1793 and its march to Granville in the hope of finding reinforcements there from England . Unable to take Granville on 14 November 1793 , it fell back towards Savenay ( 23 December 1793 ) where it was completely destroyed by Republican troops under Kléber . The battle of Savenay marked the end of what would come to be called the " first war in the Vendée " . Course . Rout at Cholet . At the end of October 1793 , after a campaign planned by general Kléber , the Republican forces of the Army of the West and the Army of Mainz managed to correctly coordinate their attacks and squeeze the Vendéen forces into a pocket .

They thus had no choice but to fall back on Beaupréau to the north , the only escape route still open , then to Saint - Florent - le - Vieil , where they were cornered in a bend of the river Loire .
HMS Good Hope ( 1901 ) HMS " Good Hope " was a 14 , 100 - ton " Drake " - class armoured cruiser of the Royal Navy ; she was originally planned to be named " Africa " , but was renamed before she was launched . Laid down on 11 September 1899 and launched on 21 February 1901 , with her heaviest gun being of 9 . 2 inch ( 234mm ) calibre , she became the flagship of the 1st Cruiser Squadron , Atlantic Fleet , in 1906 , and in 1908 became the flagship of the 2nd Cruiser Squadron . The mascot of HMS " Good Hope " was an Eland bull , named Peter . Service . She went into the Reserve Fleet in 1913 , but following the mobilisation just before the outbreak of the First World War , she joined the 6th Cruiser Squadron . The 6th Cruiser Squadron was initially allocated to the Grand Fleet at Scapa Flow to replace the 4th Cruiser Squadron ( composed of " Monmouth " class cruisers ) which had previously been sent to Rear - Admiral Sir Christopher Cradock ' s North America and West Indies command to help protect British interests during the Mexican Revolution . However , the Admiralty almost immediately ( mistakenly ) concluded that it was likely that German liners in New York and other ports on the United States Atlantic seaboard could convert themselves to armed merchant cruiser s by installing guns which the Admiralty believed they carried in their holds . They therefore diverted " Good Hope " to further reinforce Craddock ' s force , and she left Portsmouth on 2 August 1914 under the command of Captain Philip Francklin . Craddock transferred his flag to her on her arrival at Halifax , Nova Scotia because , although 90 % of her crew were reservist s who had been given little opportunity to train together in the ship , she was faster than his current flagship HMS " Suffolk " . For the next few weeks she was employed protecting British merchant shipping as far south as Pernambuco and later the Falkland Islands . She then embarked on the search for the German East Asiatic Squadron , leaving Stanley on 22 October for the west coast of South America via Cape Horn . She was sunk along with HMS " Monmouth " by the German armoured cruiser s " Scharnhorst " and " Gneisenau under Admiral Graf Maximilian von Spee with the loss of her entire complement of 900 hands , including Craddock in the Battle of Coronel , on 1 November 1914 , off the Chilean coast .
Laydown delivery Laydown delivery is a mode of deploying a free - fall nuclear weapon in which the bomb ' s fall is slowed by parachute so that it actually lands on the ground before detonating . Laydown delivery requires that the weapon ' s case be reinforced so that it can survive the impact , and generally involves a time - delay fuse to trigger detonation . Laydown mode can be used to increase the effect of the weapon ' s blast on built - up targets such as submarine pen s , or to transmit a shock wave through the ground to attack deeply buried targets . It has the additional advantage of allowing the carrier aircraft to fly very low – in order to avoid enemy defences – and still get away without being destroyed in the detonation . This is particularly important where high - yield nuclear weapons such as the B41 nuclear bomb and B53 nuclear bomb are concerned . An attack of this type produces large amounts of radioactive fallout .

Tiberius Sempronius Longus ( consul 194 BC ) Tiberius Sempronius Longus was a Roman consul in 194 BC , and a contemporary of Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus . He was the son of the Tiberius Sempronius Longus who commanded Roman legions during the Second Punic War . During his time as consul , Tiberius focused on issues such as law and emigration . He oversaw the Roman colonization of Puteoli , Volturnum , Liternum , Salernum and Buxentum . During the colonization of Gaul , his legions came under siege by the Boii , who surrounded their encampment . Tiberius ordered his troops to hold , anticipating reinforcements , but the Boii attacked after three days of waiting . The exits of the fort were so packed with enemy soldiers that the Romans were unable to get out , and by the time they fought their way to open ground , Gauls had broken through the defenses in two other places . As many as 5 , 000 Romans were killed before the Boii were finally repelled . Tiberius settled in Placentia at the end of his consulship , and little is written about him after that time . When an army of Ligurians menaced the city in 193 BC , Tiberius sent a dispatch to Rome requesting troops , and an army of veterans who had served under him against the Boii was raised and sent to Gaul in his defense .
AEDC Range G AEDC Range G is a two stage light gas gun owned by the United States Air Force and operated by Aerospace Testing Alliance . History . Constructed in 1962 , the AEDC Range - G is the largest routinely operated light gas gun in the United States . It is located at Arnold Engineering Development Center on Arnold Air Force Base . The design of the range came from collaboration between German and American scientists after World War II . Range - G has played a crucial role in lethality development for many defense programs . The range has performed more than 7 , 000 high speed launches . Capabilities . Range G is capable of launching projectiles up to speeds of 7 km / s ( 22 , 965 ft / s ) . The gun has an interchangeable barrel that can accommodate projectile diameters of 3 . 3 inches , 4 . 0 inches , and 8 . 0 inches . The projectile is launched into a 10 ft diameter test chamber that is approximately 1000 ft long . This chamber can be conditioned to pressures from 0 . 2 torr ( 26 . 7 pascals ) to 1 . 7 atmospheres ( 172 kilopascals ) . Sections of the tank can also be configured to simulate possible flight conditions such as rain or snow . Currently the facility offers a wide variety of instruments for hyperballistic testing .
