Henschel Hs 117 The Henschel Hs 117 Schmetterling ( German for " Butterfly " ) was a TV guided German surface - to - air missile project developed during World War II . There was also an air - to - air version . The operator used a telescopic sight and a joystick to guide the missile by radio control . History . In 1941 , Professor Herbert A . Wagner ( who was previously responsible for the Henschel Hs 293 anti - ship missile ) invented the Schmetterling missile and submitted it to the Reich Air Ministry ( RLM ) , who rejected the design because there was no need for more anti - aircraft weaponry . However , by 1943 the large - scale bombing of Germany caused the RLM to change its mind , and Henschel was given a contract to develop and manufacture it . There were 59 experimental firings , of which 34 failed . In May 1944 23 Hs 117 missiles were successfully tested . Mass production was ordered in December 1944 , with deployment to start in March 1945 . In January 1945 a prototype for mass production was completed , but on 6 February SS - Obergruppenführer Hans Kammler cancelled the project . Variants . The Hs 117H was an air - launched variant , designed to be launched from a Dornier Do 217 , Junkers Ju 188 , or Junkers Ju 388 aircraft . The Hs 117H was designed to attack an enemy aircraft up to 5 km above the launching aircraft .
Dwell time ( military ) In the military , dwell time is the amount of time that service members spend in their home nation between deployments to war zones . Dwell time is designed to allow service members a mental and physical break from combat and to give them time with their families . It is an important component of long term military readiness . History . From the early days of the Global War on Terrorism until 2011 , dwell time for American service members was reduced to a maximum of 12 months for most service members : " Dwell time at home stations became nothing more than getting ready for the next deployment . " In October , 2011 , the United States Department of Defense extended dwell time for U . S . soldiers to 24 months for every year deployed to a war zone . Effects . The psychological effects of dwell time have not been studied extensively , but MacGregor et al . ' s 2012 study of over 65 , 000 service members found that longer periods at home between deployments reduced the incidence of post traumatic stress disorder . Another study found that longer dwell times were associated with a reduced risk of suicide .

German submarine U - 1234 German submarine " U - 1234 " was a Type IXC / 40 U - boat of the German " Kriegsmarine " built during World War II for service in the Battle of the Atlantic . " U - 1234 " was unusual for having sunk twice , once by accident and once as part of the great destruction of the remaining " Kriegsmarine " in the days before the surrender . Service history . Constructed as a type IX submarine at Hamburg during 1943 , " U - 1234 " was delayed in her construction and did not reach full service status until almost a year after her construction began , a very long time for a U - boat . She was given to Kptlt Helmut Thurmann to command , and he began her process of mechanical testing and operational training in the Baltic Sea . Just under a month after her commissioning , whilst cruising off Gdynia on the night of 14 / 15 May , she was struck on the broadside by the steam tug " Anton " . The boat was holed and rapidly began to sink , slipping below the waves leaving her commander and most of her crew bobbing in the sea . Thirteen crew never reached the shore or the rescue boats and went down with their ship . In October 1944 , the boat was raised by divers and lifting equipment from the sea bed , and repaired and recommissioned into the " Kriegsmarine " . Such severe damage had been done to her vital systems however that she was no longer suitable for full combat duty , and was seconded to a training flotilla , where she remained to the end of the war . On 2 May 1945 her crew took her into the Hörup Happ off Flensberg and scuttled her to keep her from falling into Allied hands as their ground forces approached the port . In fiction . " U - 1234 " is also featured as a fictional submarine in the anime series " Black Lagoon " where it plays a vital part as the site of a treasure . In the anime , the boat was sunk by Allied warships off the coast of Jakarta during the war and remained on the ocean floor at a depth of for several decades . At the time of the sinking an SS officer had brought along a painting featuring typical mythological Nazi propaganda . The painting itself would bring in a sum of $ 50 , 000 to whoever could deliver it to a collector seeking it .

Abdul Injai Abdul Injai or Abdoul Ndaiye was a Muslim Wolof mercenary in colonial Portuguese Guinea at the turn of the 20th century . Born in the neighboring West African country of Senegal , Abdul Injai initially came to notice while assisting in the punitive military missions of Portuguese colonialists Oliveira Musanty and Teixeira Pinto , from 1905 to 1915 . This was the beginning of a Portuguese campaign against the animist tribes of the interior , with the help of the indigenous coastal Islamic population . It would not be until 1936 that areas like the Bijagos Islands would be under complete government control . Tedious alliances , like those between Abdul Injai and the Portuguese during the Scramble for Africa , reflect the overwhelming tendency for European colonial powers to divide native African populations based on religious affiliations - particularly the idea that , although racially inferior to Europeans , Muslim Africans possessed higher levels of education and culture and were preferential associates compared to followers of animist or tribal religions .
