Through the course of the war the center trained more than a quarter of a million maintenance , supply , and logistics personnel who went on to serve in every theater of theater of operations . During the post - World War II draw - down the number of personnel working at the center was reduced to about 3 , 900 . However , as the Cold War began to take shape with the Berlin Airlift and shortly after with the Korean War the center quickly ramped up its capabilities . Warner Robins personnel focused on refurbishing mothballed B - 29 Superfortress aircraft for use in Korea . The center also provided material support to U . S . forces engaged in the Vietnam War .

Smock Parachutist DPM The ' Smock , Parachutist DPM ' , known simply as the Para Smock , was the replacement for the Denison Smock used by the British Army ' s Parachute Regiment and parachute - trained troops . It was introduced in the mid - 1970s , after the British Army ' s universal adoption of DPM field clothing . While the design was little different from the Denison smock , it was made from a lighter - weight cloth , printed in the now - standard Disruptive Pattern Material ( DPM ) . The Para Smock differs from the three most recent standard patterns of combat jacket , all made from DPM , and is like its Denison predecessor in having no flap to button or velcro over the full length zipper ; hip and breast pockets ; hem adjustors ; and a " diaper flap " ( fastened under the crotch to stop the smock riding up while parachuting ) fastened by pres - studs ( snaps ) ( though smaller than on the Denison ) ; and knitted wool cuffs . It is also cut more loosely than the " Smock , combat " . It lacks the flannel lining on the inside of the collar that the Denison had , and like the standard " Smock , combat " has a " first field dressing " pouch on one sleeve ( the right ) , and pen pockets on the other , both closed by buttoned flaps . Like the 1968 Pattern " Smock , Combat " , it is fitted with three buttons around the outside of the collar , to which a hood can be attached . The hood is DPM , and lined in green .

Skipjack - class submarine The Skipjack class was a class of United States Navy nuclear submarine s . This class was named after its lead ship , the . This new class introduced the teardrop hull and the S5W reactor to U . S . nuclear submarines . The " Skipjack " s were the fastest U . S . nuclear submarines until the s . Design . The " Skipjack " s design was based on the successful s that were based on the USS " Albacore " design . The design of the " Skipjack " s was very different from the s that preceded the " Skipjack " s . Unlike the " Skate " s , this new design was maximized for underwater speed by shaping the hull like a blimp . This required that the single screw was aft of the rudders and dive planes . This so called " body - of - revolution hull " reduced her surface sea - keeping , but was essential for underwater performance . " Skipjack " s hull was also a single hull design , where the pressure hull and outer hull are the same for most of the length of the ship . The bow planes were moved to the massive sail to cut down on flow - induced noise near the bow sonar array . This design feature would be repeated on all U . S . nuclear submarines until the improved . The small " turtleback " behind the sail was the exhaust piping of the auxiliary diesel generator . The " Skipjack " s also introduced the S5W reactor to U . S . nuclear submarines . The S5W was used on 98 U . S . nuclear submarines and the first British nuclear submarine , . The s were based on the " Skipjack " design . The hull of was laid down twice as the original hull was redesigned to become the first US ballistic missile submarine . Also , the material for building was diverted into building , which delayed her progress . Service . The first " Skipjack " class was authorized in the FY 1956 new construction programmed with the first of the class commissioned in April 1959 . Each hull cost around $ 40 million . The " Skipjack " s saw service in Vietnam and throughout the Cold War . The " Skipjack " - class submarines were withdrawn from service in the late 1980s and early 1990s except for the , which sank on 5 June 1968 in the south west Azores , while returning from a Mediterranean deployment . Boats . The gaps in the hull - number sequence were taken by the two one of a kind submarines , USS Triton ( SSRN - 586 ) and USS Halibut ( SSGN - 587 ) . References .

Good Conduct Loop A Good Conduct Loop is an award device of the United States Army which denotes additional decorations of the Army Good Conduct Medal . Good Conduct Loops were first created in 1941 and were based on the concept of the enlistment bar . Good Conduct Loops have remained the primary method of displaying multiple bestowals of the Army Good Conduct Medal , and may be said to show how many " hitches " a soldier has served . Good Conduct Loops are attached to the ribbon and medal of the Good Conduct Medal . A Good Conduct Loop comprises a clasp with several inscribed loops . The second award of a Good Conduct Medal would display a bronze clasp with two loops , the third would show a bronze clasp with three loops , and so on . At six loops , the clasp changes to silver , and then at eleven loops the clasp changes to gold . Thus , a silver loop with two knots would denote the seventh award of the Good Conduct Medal while a gold loop with four knots would indicate the fourteenth award of the Good Conduct Medal . The Army Good Conduct Medal is the only one of the service Good Conduct awards which uses Good Conduct Loops . The U . S . Navy , U . S . Marine Corps , and United States Coast Guard display additional Good Conduct awards with service stars , while the United States Air Force uses oak leaf clusters .

Battle of Silda Battle of Silda ( " Affæren ved Silden " or " Affæren ved Stadt " ) was a naval battle fought on 23 July 1810 between the United Kingdom and Denmark – Norway near the Norwegian island of Silda in Sogn og Fjordane county . The battle occurred during the Gunboat War , itself part of the Napoleonic Wars . In the battle , two British frigates captured or destroyed three or four Dano - Norwegian gunboats . The Danish and British accounts of the battle differ . Danish account . The Dano - Norwegian Navy had based three gun - schooners " Odin " , " Thor " and " Balder " and the gun - barge " Cort Adeler " at the pilot station on Silda . However , only the first two of these , plus a third , smaller gunboat , were involved in the battle . On the 23 July the British frigates , Captain Richard Byron , and , Captain William Ferris , attacked . One of the Norwegian boats was able to hit at least one of the British boats , killing several British soldiers . Still , the British captured the station . The crew of one of the Danish boats scuttled their vessel and escaped . The British took the other three Danish vessels as prizes and sent their crews to imprisonment in England . The British also raided civilian ships moored in the vicinity . The British raided farms several places along the coast both before and after this incident . British account . " Belvidera " and " Nemesis " were sailing close in - shore of Studtland , Norway . On the evening of 22 July a boat from " Belvidera " scouting a deep bay sighted three Danish gun - vessels . The next morning seven boats from the two frigates entered the creek and cut out the two larger Dano - Norwegian vessels . The British suffered no casualties , though the Danes lost four men killed . The two larger vessels , " Balder " and " Thor " , commanded by Lieutenants Dahlreup and Rasmusen , were schooner - rigged . Each mounted two long 24 - pounder guns and six 6 - pounder howitzers and had a crew of 45 men . The third gun - vessel , Gunboat No . 5 , was of a smaller class ; she carried one long 24 - pounder and had a crew of 25 men .
