Terne ASW Terne is a Norwegian Anti - submarine weapon system , which uses rocket - thrown depth charges . It was developed by the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment ( FFI ) in cooperation with the U . S . Navy in the late 1940s - early 1960s . The Terne development project consisted of three phases : Terne I : Development of a rocketborn depth charge . Terne II : Development and construction of a landbased ASW for naval defense . Terne III : Development and construction of a shipborne ASW . A Terne III weapon system consists of a search & track sonar , a fire - control system and the rocket launchers , which can store six salvos of six rockets each . The rocket itself , is a depth charge with multiple fusing modes ( preset time after water entry , proximity , or contact ) , which is propelled through the air by a solid - fueled rocket motor . When the sonar detects a target , the fire - control system can fire a rocket salvo to place a string of depth charges apart , perpendicular to the target ' s course .

United Nations Temporary Executive Authority The United Nations Temporary Executive Authority ( UNTEA ) / United Nations Security Force in West New Guinea ( UNSF ) was established during October 1962 in accord with Article two of the New York Agreement to administer the colony of West New Guinea until the 1st May 1963 . History . Western New Guinea became the focus of a political dispute between the Netherlands and Indonesia following the recognition of the independence of the latter . The Indonesian side claimed the territory as its own while the Dutch side maintained that its residents were not Indonesian and that the Netherlands would continue to administer the territory until it was capable of self - determination . Indonesia landed paratroops onto the territory of Western New Guinea in 1961 which prompted a political crisis between the Netherlands and Indonesia . The United Nations attempted to mediate in the dispute and this led to the signing of the New York Agreement in September 1962 . The agreement stipulated that the administration would pass from the Netherlands to a United Nations temporary authority on 1 October 1962 which would then transfer administration of the territory to Indonesia on 1 May the following year . The agreement also stated that the people of Western New Guinea would be able to participate in an Act of Free Choice at a later stage to determine the permanent status of the territory . The United Nations mission ( UNTEA ) was initially led by José Rolz - Bennett of Guatemala and then by Djalal Abdoh of Iran who served as the Administrator . In addition to civil administration , UNTEA also had a peacekeeping role through military observers . Nineteen postage stamps , as well as some postal stationery items , were issued by UNTEA . These were created by overprint ing existing stocks of Netherlands New Guinea issues . At the time packets of all stamps were sold at UN Headquarters by the United Nations Postal Administration and they remain readily available on the retail market . During the seven month transition period Dutch civil servants and officials were slowly recalled to the Netherlands and were replaced by local and Indonesian officials . It was agreed that following the transfer of authority , E . J . Bonay a member of the New Guinea Council would be appointed as the first Indonesian Governor . The transfer of authority took place on 1 May 1963 and West New Guinea became a province of Indonesia known as Irian Barat , later renamed Irian Jaya . This was the first time in its history that the United Nations assumed direct administrative responsibility for a territory . The United Nations would go on to undertake similar missions in Cambodia ( UNTAC ) , Croatia ( UNTAES ) , Kosovo ( UNMIK ) and East Timor ( UNTAET ) .

Battle of the Weser River The Battle of the Weser River , sometimes known as a first Battle of Minden , usually Battle of Idistaviso , was fought in 16 AD between Roman legion s commanded by Emperor Tiberius ' heir and adopted son Germanicus , and an alliance of Germanic tribes commanded by Arminius . The battle marked the end of a three - year series of campaigns by Germanicus in Germania . Background . The Germanic chief , Arminius , had been instrumental in the organising of the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest , in which three Roman legions , moving west to winter quarters , were ambushed and annihilated by allied Germanic forces in the deep forests of western Germania . This loss loomed large in the Roman psyche and revenge for this defeat , as well as the neutralization of the threat of Arminius , were the impetus for Germanicus ' campaign . In the year before the battle , 15 AD , Germanicus had marched against the Chatti and then against the Cherusci under Arminius . During that campaign , the Romans advanced along the region of the Teutoburg Forest where the legions had been massacred and buried the bones of the Roman soldiers that still lay there . A Legionary standard from the battle was also recovered . Skirmishes with the Germani were constant but the Romans could not draw them into open battle . Location . Ancient sources identify the location as " Idistaviso " , but the precise location is unknown , save that it was on the right side of the Weser River , somewhere between the cities of Minden and Hamelin of present - day Germany . The battle . The Germanic tribes generally avoided open large - scale combat but by repeated Roman incursions deep into Germanic territory , Germanicus was able to force Arminius , at the head of a large but fractious coalition , into response . The Romans , along with the Chauci who fought on the Roman side as auxiliaries , defeated the allied Germanic forces decisively , inflicting heavy losses on them . Arminius and his uncle Inviomerus evaded capture and fled with the remnants of their army into the forests . It is unknown how many Germanics and Romans were killed in the battle . According to Tacitus , the number of Germanic casualties were between 10 , 000 - 20 , 000 dead or wounded , while probably less than 10 , 000 Romans were killed . Aftermath . Germanicus then withdrew behind the Rhine for the winter . With Roman honour avenged , Tiberius called an end to the costly military campaigns in northern Germania and ordered Germanicus to return to Rome , where he was granted a Triumph by Tiberius on May 26 , AD 17 . Arminius would be later assassinated on the orders of rival Germanic chiefs . Trivia . In Mikhail Bulgakov ' s " The Master and Margarita " , the procurator of Judea , Pontius Pilate , states that he had fought in this battle .
