Holders of the rank may serve as senior specialist and / or as assistant platoon leader or platoon leader . The original military meaning of the word ' Förvaltare ' was the same as ' Conductor ' , as in a Warrant Officer Conductor of Ordnance Stores or Quartermaster Stores . History . 1960 . The rise of the status of the professional rank : Holders of the rank served as platoon leaders and company commanders in the war - time organization and as assistant platoon leaders or leaders of conscript training platoons during peace time , thus having the same positions as company grade officers . However other non - professional holders of the rank kept their much lower positions as company sergeant major s , etc . This major discrepancy cased a great deal of confusion . Reform 1972 - Rank inflation phase I . Prior to 1972 , military personnel were divided into three categories " Underbefäl " ( non - commissioned officers ) , " Underofficerare " ( warrant officers ) and " Officerare " ( commissioned officers ) . The reform established a four - career - path system with four categories as described below and carried out major promotions of most personnel below the rank Överstelöjtnant . The " Underbefäl " category was split into two categories The " Underofficer " category was renamed kompaniofficerare to include The " Officer " category was renamed regementsofficerare to include Reform 1983 - Rank inflation phase II . All categories were merged into one professional officer category with the lowest rank set to fänrik . Furir , överfurir , sergeant and fanjunkare were removed as a professional ranks . Holders of the rank fanjunkare were promoted to löjtnant and the rest to fänrik . New two - career - path system . After the implementation of two - career - paths systems for officers 2008 , this rank may again become a professional rank within the newly created “ specialist officer ” category . The intention of the new system is to better align Swedish military forces with that of Netherlands , Denmark , Norway and Britton as well as increasing the skills of leaders of team , squad , platoon level units . It is a partly rollback to the system that existed prior the implementation of the one career path system 1983 .

Flushing ( military tactic ) Flushing ( or Flush ) is a military tactic whereby grenade s , smoke , gunfire , riot control agent , chemical weapons , or various other methods can be used to flush opponents out from cover . Flushing can cause opponents to leave their cover , possibly making them vulnerable to further action , or force them to take up a new position more favorable to the attacker , or disperse enemies completely . This generally makes it easier for the attacking force to deal with its opponents without unduly increasing the risk to themselves . It is mostly used in urban combat through the use of hand grenades , or in situations where defenders are dug in a fortified position , such as a bunker , behind sandbags , or hiding in buildings .

Field telephone Field telephones are mobile telephones intended for military use , designed to withstand wartime conditions . They can draw power from their own battery , from a telephone exchange ( via a central battery known as CB ) , or from an external power source . Some need no battery , being sound - powered telephone s . Field telephones were first used in the First World War to direct troops . They replaced flag signals and the telegraph as an efficient means of communication . The first field telephones had a wind - up generator , used to power the telephone ' s ringer & batteries to send the call , and call the manually operated telephone central . This technology was used from the 1910s to the 1960s . Later the ring signal has been made electronically operated by a pushbutton , or automatic as on domestic telephones . The manual systems are still widely used , and are often compatible with the older equipment . Field telephones operate over wire lines , sometimes commandeering civilian circuits when available , but often using wires strung in combat conditions . At least as of World War II , wire communications were the preferred method for the U . S . Army , with radio use only when needed , e . g . to communicate with mobile units , or until wires could be set up . Field phones could operate point to point or via a switchboard at a command post . A variety of wire types are used , ranging from light weight " assault wire , " e . g . W - 130 — — with a talking range about , to heavier cable with multiple pairs . Equipment for laying the wire ranges from reels on backpacks to trucks equipped with plows to bury lines . Field telephones used by the United States Army . Torture of POWs According to the Army ' s Vietnam War Crimes Working Group Files , field telephones were sometimes used in Vietnam to torture POWs with electric shocks during interrogation s .
Signal Corps Radio Signal Corps Radios were U . S . Army military communications components that comprised " sets " . Under the Army Nomenclature System , SCR initially designated " Set , Complete Radio , " and later " Signal Corps Radio , " though interpretations have varied over time . Nomenclature . The term SCR was part of a nomenclature system developed for the U . S . Signal Corps , used at least as far back as World War I . Three - letter designators beginning with " SC " were used to denote complete systems , while one and two - letter designators ( such as " BC " , for basic component , " FT " for mounting , etc . ) were used for components . Only a few system designators were used : SCR radio sets . The U . S . Signal Corps used the term " sets " to denote specific groupings of individual components such as transmitters , receivers , power supplies , handsets , cases , and antennas . SCR radio sets ranged from the relatively small SCR - 536 " handie talkie " to high - powered , truck - mounted mobile communications systems like the SCR - 299 and large microwave radar systems such as the SCR - 584 radar . SCS . The SCS designator was applied to groups of SCR - numbered sets comprising an extensive system , such as multiple radio sets employed in a ground - based fighter direction / control center . The SCR designator could be a single transmitting or receiving set , or a full set of both transmitting and receiving equipment . Additional Designators . An additional designator , " RC " was used for subsystems or groups of accessories . The Joint Electronics Type Designation System which came into use in 1943 absorbed or superseded the SC designations . SCR communication radios by branch use . This is only a general list , quite a few radios crossed over between branches . Armor Artillery Infantry general use / command Cavalry Coast artillery / AAA Air Liaison ( ground ) Aircraft

Cohors II Gallorum veterana equitata Cohors secunda Gallorum veterana equitata ( " 2nd part - mounted veteran Cohort of Gauls " ) was a Roman auxiliary mixed infantry and cavalry regiment . The regiment was probably constituted under Augustus , the founder of the Roman empire ( r . 30 BC - AD 14 ) . It was originally recruited from natives of Gallia Lugdunensis ( northern / central France ) . The unit is first attested in the datable epigraphic record in AD 99 in Moesia Inferior ( N . Bulgaria ) , from where it probably took part in the emperor Trajan ' s Dacian Wars ( 101 - 6 ) . It was briefly stationed in Mauretania Caesariensis ( N Algeria ) , where it is attested for 107 . From at least 122 until its last known attestation of 244 - 9 , it was in Britannia , and thus saw the building of Hadrian ' s Wall ( 122 - 32 ) . In Britannia , the regiment garrisoned , from 178 at the latest , the fort at Old Penrith ( Cumbria ) . The reason for its unusual title of " veterana " , which only appears in an inscription dated 178 , is unclear . It has been suggested that the title indicates some form of seniority over other units in the province . The full names of 4 " praefecti " ( commanders ) of the regiment are known , all from the 2nd century . Three appear to have been northern Italians and one was from Nicomedia in Bithynia . In addition , we have the name of a single " pedes " ( ranker foot - soldier ) , a Mysian from the province of Asia ( 99 AD ) . There is also attested ( 178 ) a certain Dacus , an " eques " ( ranker cavalryman ) . The name , which simply means " the Dacian " was probably adopted by him because his native Dacian name was unpronounceable for Romans .
Cape Canaveral Air Force Station Launch Complex 31 Launch Complex 31 ( LC - 31 ) is a former launch complex at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station , Florida . It was built in 1959 with LC - 32 for the U . S . Air Force to conduct test launches of the first LGM - 30 Minuteman missiles . LC - 31 was built next to Navaho complex LC - 9 , requiring LC - 10 to be demolished . These complexes were the first to feature dual launch pads , one of which was subterranean . LC 31 consisted of a blockhouse , static launch pad ( 31A ) and missile silo ( 31B ) . The bee - hive - shaped blockhouse is 210 yards from the static pad and 330 yards from the silo . The Air Force launched four Minuteman missiles from 31A ; and 35 from the silo , 31B , between February 1 , 1960 and September 23 , 1969 . Pad 31A was used later by the U . S . Army to test launch ten MGM - 31 Pershing missiles . The service tower has since been removed and silo filled in , although recovered debris from the space shuttle orbiter " Challenger " were buried in the silo .
