Blow forward Blow - forward is a firearm operation type where the friction and pressure of the bullet traveling down the bore drag the barrel forward . Most mechanisms require that the remainder of the firearm also recoil away from the barrel for proper operation . Due to the reduced mass of rearward - traveling parts , recoil energy is significantly greater than other operating mechanisms . The barrel and spring are generally the only moving parts . Examples . The first known blow - forward firearm was the Steyr Mannlicher M1894 pistol of Austro - Hungarian origin . Other designs where the Schwarzlose Model 1908 , Hino Komuro M1908 Pistol , and Mk 20 Mod 0 40mm automatic grenade launcher .
Tall Afar Air Base Tall Afar Air Base is a former Iraqi Air Force base in the Nineveh Governorate of Iraq . It was captured by Coalition forces during Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2003 . Overview . Tall Afar Air Base was a primary air base for the Iraqi Air Force . At each end of the main 10 , 000 - foot runway are a dozen hardened aircraft shelters known as " Trapezoids " or " Yugos " which were built by Yugoslavian contractors some time prior to 1985 with multiple runways and taxiways , patterned after their Russian counterparts . The base was heavily attacked by Coalition airpower during Operation Iraqi Freedom in March 2003 , and seized by Coalition ground forces . Efforts are underway to repair the nearly obsolete water pumping system that provides water for over 325 , 000 citizens of Northern Iraq . In the interim , soldiers from the 101st Airborne Division ( Air Assault ) have contracted 32 trucks to carry over 10 , 000 liters of water every day to villages that the water system is unable to reach . 101st AAD civil affairs and engineering soldiers are working to fix the water system , which draws its water supply directly from the Freedom ( formerly Saddam ) Lake in Northern Iraq . With the broken down water pumps , many areas around northern Iraq are nearly dry without the water trucks . The drivers of the water trucks meet every day at the tactical operations center in the northern Iraqi city of Tall Afar before getting into their trucks . The drivers and their trucks are a temporary solution to the water distribution problem until long - term solutions can be put into effect . A car bomber attacked a US military barracks in northern Iraq on 9 December 2003 . A total of 61 soldiers were injured . Five of the wounded were medivaced to hospital , four to Baghdad and one to Germany . The other 51 soldiers had nicks , cuts , bruises and some broken bones . Guards at the gate and in a watchtower opened fire on the vehicle and moments later it blew up . The bomb left a large crater at the gate ' s entryway in the town of Talafar , 30 miles west of the northern city of Mosul . Tall Afar is mainly populated by Shiite Turkmen and had been calm since the US - led coalition ousted Hussein in April 2003 . It remains in use by the United States Army as Forward Operating base Tall Afar .
Battle of Brown ' s Mill The Battle of Brown ' s Mill was fought July 30 , 1864 , in Coweta County , Georgia , during the Atlanta Campaign of the American Civil War . Edward M . McCook ' s Union cavalry , on a daring raid to sever communications and supply lines in south - central Georgia , was defeated near Newnan , Georgia , by Confederate forces under Joseph Wheeler . The failure of McCook ' s column and a concurrent ill - fated raid by George Stoneman forced William T . Sherman to lay siege to the city of Atlanta . Background . During the Atlanta Campaign , Gen . William T . Sherman , wanting to avoid the necessity of laying siege to the city , ordered two columns of Federal cavalry on a series of raids south of Atlanta in an attempt to cut off supply and communication lines . Maj . Gen . George Stoneman led the cavalry of the Army of the Ohio to the southeast , while Brig . Gen . Edward M . McCook ’ s First Division of the cavalry of the Army of the Cumberland was to sever railroads southwest of the city . He was to link with Stoneman and then seize the Andersonville prison camp and free the 32 , 000 prisoners held there . Crossing the Chattahoochee River on a pontoon bridge erected at Smith ’ s Ferry , McCook ’ s cavalrymen reached Palmetto , where they cut the Atlanta & West Point Railroad . They captured and burned over 1 , 000 Confederate supply wagons at Fayetteville on July 28 . General McCook also gained a reputation for condoning and encouraging the destruction of civilian property . Early the next morning , his raiders reached Lovejoy ’ s Station , twenty - three miles south of Atlanta , and began wrecking the Macon & Western Railroad . However , McCook called off the raid and turned back across the river when Stoneman failed to appear as planned . The Battle . Nevertheless , as they tried to return to the main army , McCook ’ s division was attacked near Brown ' s Mill , three miles south of Newnan , by Confederate cavalry under Joseph Wheeler . McCook wanted to surrender , but instead let his officers lead their battalions out separately . McCook , thoroughly defeated , lost 1 , 285 men , 1 , 200 horses , several ambulances , and two pieces of spiked artillery , as well as 100 killed and wounded . Wheeler also freed some 300 Confederate prisoners that McCook had previously captured . Wheeler ’ s losses were 50 men . Stoneman ’ s forces also met with disaster . General Stoneman was captured , becoming the highest ranking Union officer to be a prisoner of war during the Civil War . Many of his and McCook ’ s enlisted men ironically wound up in Andersonville , the target of their raid . Brown ' s Mill changed the course of the Atlanta Campaign , forcing Sherman to abandon his efforts to use cavalry to cut Atlanta ' s railroads and compelling him to begin a lengthy siege against his wishes . McCook later took his remaining men northward into Tennessee when Sherman sent the Army of the Cumberland to chase John Bell Hood . McCook fought with distinction during the rest of the war , with his stunning defeat to a lesser force at Brown ’ s Mill the major blemish on his service record .
Sabawi Ibrahim al - Tikriti Sabawi Ibrahim al - Tikriti ( ) , half brother of Saddam Hussein , ( 27 February 1947 - 8 July 2013 ) was the leader of the Iraqi secret service , the " Mukhabarat " , at the time of the 1991 Gulf War . He was the head of the Directorate of General Security from 1991 to 1996 , and later served as a presidential advisor to Hussein . As of 27 February 2005 , the date news of his arrest was made public , he held the six of Diamonds position in the most - wanted Iraqi playing cards , and was number 36 on the top 55 most wanted Iraqis list . He was suspected of being behind explosions and killings that took place after the collapse of the former regime , and a one million dollar reward was offered for information that led to either his capture or death . Syria turned him over to Iraqi forces after his capture . The Iraqi troops in turn turned him over to U . S forces . Syria has been repeatedly charged with protecting former Iraqi officials , a charge which the Syrian government has always denied . In March 2009 , Ibrahim was sentenced to death by hanging . As his death sentence was read out , he stood up and proclaimed " God is great " and that he was proud to be a martyr . On 8 July 2013 Sabawi Ibrahim al - Tikriti died from cancer . His son , Ayman Sabawi Ibrahim , was also arrested by the US and was serving a life sentence until his escape from prison on 9 December 2006 . His brother , Watban Ibrahim al - Tikriti was also sentenced to death . His other brother , Barzan Ibrahim al - Tikriti was executed in 2007 .
Operation Ortsac Operation Ortsac was the project name of a possible invasion of Cuba planned by the United States military in 1962 . The codename was derived from former Cuban President Fidel Castro by spelling his surname backward . During the Cuban Missile Crisis , upon discovery of SS - 4 missiles being assembled in Cuba , the US Government considered several options including a blockade , an airstrike , or a military strike against the Cuban missile positions . The nuclear weapons supplied from the Soviet Union could be destroyed by a military strike with the help of substantial air raids before they were operational . The plans were rejected in favour of a blockade , as U . S . President John F . Kennedy was against a sneak attack . It can be argued that an American attack would have probably resulted in the deaths of Soviet soldiers and a retaliatory strike on another American position in the world such as West Berlin . Such moves would have possibly resulted in an all - out nuclear war between the Soviet Union and the United States . Also , a military strike would probably have failed to destroy an entirety of the missiles with many of the positions hidden to U - 2 reconnaissance planes . It would also fail to prevent Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev from sending further reinforcements to Cuba , making a full blown military strike deposing Castro necessary to prevent further missiles from being placed on Cuba . After the collapse of the Soviet Union , the Russians revealed that the medium - range missiles on Cuba were already almost fully operational at that time , and operational command of smaller , battlefield - tactical nuclear missiles also present had ( rather amazingly ) been given to field officers , though that authorization was quickly rescinded . An attack on these positions may well have resulted in the use of tactical nuclear weapons , for which some proportional response may well have been considered necessary . Order of battle .

They were mobilized by the Japanese army on March 23 , 1945 . Many of the Himeyuri students thought that the Japanese army would defeat the Americans in a matter of days and accordingly brought school supplies to study and get ready to get right back into the classroom . History . During the nearly 3 - month - long battle , the Himeyuri students were on the front lines performing surgery and other difficult duties . Near the end of the battle of Okinawa , many were living in dark caves filled with countless gravely injured and dead soldiers . Unit dissolved .

In the week following the dissolution order , approximately 80 % of the girls and their teachers perished . Survivors committed suicide in various ways because of fears of systematic rape by US soldiers . Some threw themselves off cliffs while others killed themselves with hand grenades given to them by the Japanese soldiers for just that purpose . Himeyuri Monument . The Himeyuri Monument was built on April 7 , 1946 in memory of those who died . Many of those who survived helped build and continue to maintain the facilities .

Rock Island National Cemetery Rock Island National Cemetery is a United States National Cemetery located within Rock Island Arsenal near the city of Rock Island , Illinois . It encompasses , and as of the end of 2006 , had 24 , 525 interments . The cemetery is also nearing compliance with the National Shrine guidelines , due to its use of college students during the summer to reset and realign stones . When looking from any one stone there should be seven lines visible and all should be straight . History . The cemetery was established in 1863 as a place to inter the remains of American Civil War Union army soldiers . Its initial placement interfered with expansion of the Arsenal ' s facilities , so it was moved to a location on the northern end of the island . Civil War veterans who were interred in Oakdale Cemetery in Davenport , Iowa , were later disinterred and moved to the National Cemetery . Property transfers from the Arsenal in 1926 , 1936 , and 1950 increased the cemetery ' s area . There are plans for further expansion of this cemetery including an addition pavilion , more land , and a wall for cremations near the tank track . A second , cemetery was established near Rock Island National Cemetery to bury Confederate prisoners of war , nearly two thousand of which would die while in captivity on the island , primarily from the harsh living conditions .
