Donald McIntosh Donald McIntosh ( September 4 , 1838 – June 25 , 1876 ) was an officer in the U . S . 7th Cavalry Regiment who was killed at the Battle of Little Big Horn in the Montana Territory . Biography . McIntosh was born in Montreal , Quebec in Canada , the son of James ( John ) and Charlotte Robinson McIntosh ( she was a direct descendant of Red Jacket , a chief of the Six Nations ) . His father , part of the famed Hudson ' s Bay Company , was killed by Indians when Donald was 14 . Young McIntosh lived in various posts of the Hudson ' s Bay Company and later in Fort Vancouver , Washington before moving to Oregon City in 1851 and Portland , Oregon in 1854 . During the American Civil War , he was chief clerk for Brig . Gen . Daniel Rucker . McIntosh married Mary ( Molly ) Garrett on October 30 , 1866 , in Baltimore , Maryland . He was appointed as Second Lieutenant , 7th U . S . Cavalry , on August 17 , 1867 , and was promoted to First Lieutenant on March 22 , 1870 . In the absence of the company commander , Custer assigned McIntosh to command Company G for the 1876 summer expedition from Fort Abraham Lincoln . During the early stages of the fight along the Little Big Horn River , Major Marcus Reno took three companies of cavalry and swung through the river valley in an effort to attack the Indian village , while Custer headed off to attack the sprawling camp from the rear . Reno ' s attack met with initial resistance , and he ordered his troops to dismount and form a skirmish line across the valley flats for about 15 minutes . Not making any headway , he retreated with his men into a stand of timber along the river , where they formed a defensive perimeter . Shortly after the sudden death of his scout Bloody Knife , Reno lost control of the tactical situation . He ordered a desperate withdrawal back across the river onto the bluffs . G Company was among the last to leave the timber . Indians knocked McIntosh from his horse and quickly killed him . His badly mutilated body was recovered two days later when a relief column arrived . His body was originally buried where he fell . They were exhumed in July 1877 and re - interred the following month in Fort Leavenworth National Cemetery . In 1909 , the remains were disinterred and shipped to Arlington National Cemetery for permanent burial in Section 1 . His widow received a pension of $ 30 per month until her death on May 12 , 1910 , when she was buried with him . McIntosh ' s brother - in - law , Francis M . Gibson ( who survived the Little Big Horn fight ) is buried nearby . In the summer of 1995 , a finger bone with a ring was dug up on the site of Reno ' s battle near McIntosh ' s memorial marker . The ring was identified as McIntosh ' s wedding band by the inscribed initials of the slain officer and his wife , and the date of their wedding . It now is in a private museum in Garryowen , Montana .
USS Charles F . Adams ( DDG - 2 ) USS " Charles F . Adams " ( DDG - 2 ) , named for Charles Francis Adams , III ( Secretary of the Navy from 1929 to 1933 ) , was the lead ship of the her class of guided missile destroyer s of the United States Navy . The ship was laid down by the Bath Iron Works at Bath , Maine on 16 June 1958 , launched on 8 September 1959 by Mrs . R . Homans , sister of Mr . Adams , and commissioned on 10 September 1960 and stationed in its homeport of Charleston , South Carolina . Intended as a follow - on to the s , the ship was originally designated as DD - 952 . Outwardly similar to the " Sherman " - class , " Charles F . Adams " was the first U . S . Navy ship designed from the keel up to launch anti - aircraft missile s . To reflect the increased capabilities of the ship and to distinguish her from previous destroyer designs , " Charles F . Adams " was re - designated DDG - 2 prior to the ship ' s launching . Following commissioning " Charles F . Adams " took part in recovery operations for Walter M . Schirra ' s Mercury 8 mission . While engaged in this operation the Cuban Missile Crisis developed and " Adams " moved to the Caribbean Sea as part of the quarantine forces around the Island of Cuba . In July 1969 , " Charles F . Adams " left her homeport of Charleston and relocated to Mayport , Florida . " Charles F . Adams " was decommissioned and stricken from the Naval Vessel Register on 1 August 1990 and is being held for donation at Philadelphia Naval Shipyard in Pennsylvania . The Saginaw Valley Naval Ship Museum Committee attempted to acquire the ship as a museum and memorial to be located in Bay City , Michigan ; however , the cost of preparing the ship for movement through the Saint Lawrence Seaway proved too expensive and the project was abandoned . As of September 2008 , " Charles F . Adams " remains at the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard on Donation Hold status . She is currently scheduled to be preserved by the Adams Class Veteran ' s Association and the Jacksonville Historic Naval Ship Association in Jacksonville , Florida . An application was delivered 31 March 2008 . In October 2010 the Jacksonville City Council supported efforts to bring the ship to that city as a museum . The preservation effort will require approximately $ 300 , 000 to tow the ship to Jacksonville ; $ 3 million for repairs and restoration of the vessel ; and $ 5 million to construct a pier to moor it at . So far the preservation groups have raised about $ 150 , 000 .

Dominick Kirwin Dominick Kirwin was an Irish Confederate , fl . 1642 – 1653 ? Kirwin was a member of one of The Tribes of Galway , and led the raiding party that seized a ship anchored near Galway early in the morning of 19 March 1642 . It was a British naval vessel under the command of a Captain Clarke , and had been sent to reinforce the garrison situated at Forthill , overlooking the town . The garrison and its commander , Captain Anthony Willoughby , had been harassing the locals and bombarding the town on a regular basis for several weeks , and negotiations had been held between Willoughby and Walter Lynch ( Mayor ) , with the Earl of Clanricarde acting as mediator . Shortly before nine a . m . , Kirwin led a group of men including Brian Roe Mahon Móre , Walter Óge Martyn and other natives of the town . They rowed out to the ship on pretense of selling goods , but were fully armed and within minutes seized the ship , killing two of the crew and injuring several others . They then sailed the ship into the quays while under fire from the Forthill garrison ; they suffered no direct hits and promptly distributed the goods and military supplies that the ship had held for the garrison . Following this the town gates were shut and the town openly proclaimed it was rebelling . Kirwin may have survived the subsequent warfare , for following the surrender of Galway in April 1653 , he and the rest of his followers were the only townspeople explicitly excluded from the Terms of Surrender . If captured , Kirwin would have been executed . His ultimate fate is unknown .
Multiple Kill Vehicle The Multiple Kill Vehicle ( MKV ) was a planned U . S . missile defense program whose goal is to design , develop , and deploy multiple small kinetic energy - based warheads that can intercept and destroy multiple ballistic missiles , including possible decoy targets ( penetration aids ) . The MKV concept provided the capability for more than one kill vehicle to be launched from a single booster . The system included a carrier vehicle with on - board sensors and a number of kill vehicles , each equipped with its own navigation thrusters and weighing around 10 pounds . With multiple kill vehicles on a single target " cloud " the probability for a hit on the actual warhead is enhanced . The capability of the system to intercept multiple independent targets was also planned to be tested . The MKV mission was to destroy medium - range through intercontinental - range ballistic missile s equipped with multiple warhead s or countermeasure s by using a single interceptor missile . During an actual hostile ballistic missile attack , the carrier vehicle with its cargo of small kill vehicles would have maneuvered into the path of an enemy missile . Using tracking data from the Ballistic Missile Defense System and its own seeker , the carrier vehicle would have dispensed and guided the kill vehicles to destroy any warheads or countermeasures . After successful development , MKV was planned to be deployed on board GBI missiles , KEI and SM - 3 Block IIA as well . The MKV technology was being developed on a dual - path basis by Lockheed Martin Space Systems Company , designated MKV - L , and the Raytheon Company ( MKV - R ) . Missile Defense Agency announced that a test of the MKV - L was conducted 2 December 2008 , at the National Hover Test Facility at Edwards Air Force Base , California . Preliminary indications are that planned test objectives were achieved . Objectives of the test included having the MKV - L hover under its own power and prove its capability to recognize and track a surrogate target in a flight environment . During the test , the MKV - L ' s propulsion system demonstrated maneuverability while tracking a target . The MKV - L transmitted video and flight telemetry to the ground . On April 6 , 2009 , United States Secretary of Defense Robert M . Gates announced that the Pentagon ' s budget would be reshaped . Under this proposal the MKV program would be terminated .

Action of 16 March 1782 The Action of 16 March 1782 was a minor naval engagement between a British Royal Naval frigate HMS " Success " and a Spanish frigate " Santa Catalina " in the Strait of Gibraltar during the American War of Independence . On the 16th of March the 32 - gun frigate " Success " , Captain Charles Pole , and the armed store - ship HMS " Vernon " ( mounting twenty - two long 6 - pounders ) , which was commanded by John Falconer , being off Cape Spartel , on their voyage to Gibraltar , sighted the Spanish 12 - pounder 34 - gun frigate " Santa Catalina " commanded by Don Miguel Tacon . This ship was part of a squadron keeping an eye out for any relief convoys heading into Gibraltar which was then under siege . The Spanish frigate having approached within random shot the " Success " suddenly hauled up and poured a destructive broadside . The " Success " then wore round , and took up her position which was also mimicked by the " Vernon " . The Spanish frigate having lost her mizzenmast at around 8pm hauled down her colours , and then was taken possession of by the " Success " . Out of 300 men , the " Santa Catalina " had 25 killed and eight wounded , and the " Success " one killed and four wounded . The " Santa Catalina " was however severely damaged and had been holed below the waterline , and six Spanish sail were sighted the next day . Pole fearing the Spaniards had formed a plan to take possession of the " Success " and the " Santa Catalina " decided that once all the valuables and prisoners removed that it was necessary to destroy her , and she was accordingly set on fire and blown up . Pole then headed back to Gibraltar which he made successfully a few days later .
HMS London ( 1656 ) HMS " London " was a 64 - gun second - rate ship of the line of the English Royal Navy , originally built for the navy of the Commonwealth of England at Chatham by Captain John Taylor , and launched in June 1656 . She gained fame as one of the ships that escorted Charles II from Holland back to England during the English Restoration , carrying Charles ' younger brother James Duke of York , and commanded by Captain John Lawson . " London " was accidentally blown up in 1665 and sank in the Thames Estuary . According to Samuel Pepys 300 of her crew were killed , 24 were blown clear and survived , including one woman . Lawson was not aboard at the time of the explosion though many of his relatives were killed . The wreck was rediscovered in 2008 , resulting in the port authorities changing the route of the shipping channel to prevent further damage and to allow archaeologists from Wessex Archaeology led by Frank Pope to investigate , leading to what was the largest ever post - war salvage operation on the Thames . < br > London featured in " " Thames Shipwrecks : A Race Against Time " , " a BBC series on shipwrecks in the Thames . The two sites where the remains lie were designated under the Protection of Wrecks Act 1973 on 24 October 2008 . The wreck is considered important partly for its historical references and partly for its insight into an important period in British naval history . Although the Port of London authority had voluntarily taken action to reduce the risk of damage to shipping , the removal of bronze cannon from the site without any archaeological investigations being carried out showed that the site was at risk of destruction through looting and hence required immediate protection . Pepys Diary Entry . Samuel Pepys wrote about hearing of the loss of HMS " London " , on 8 March 1665 , writing :
Funistrada Funistrada is a fictitious food item . The term was allegedly ( according to Bill Bryson ) inserted in a U . S . Army survey of soldiers circa 1974 regarding their food preferences . The " food " scored higher in popularity than eggplant , lima beans , and cranberry juice . It is typical of the sorts of intentional " fake foods " since inserted into military surveys to establish a baseline for taste ; it is thought that the word evokes a pasta dish . Other similar but less successful " menu items " include a vegetable dish called " buttered ermal " and a meat dish called " braised trake . " The word is said to be similar in sound and cadence to " fuori strada " , used to describe an offroad vehicle .
