Battle of Caribou The Battle of Caribou was a minor and ultimately bloodless skirmish between U . S . and British ( Canadian ) armed lumberjacks during the Aroostook War . It added to the growing tensions between the respective governments and encouraged the mobilization of local militias to the area , which nearly sparked an armed conflict . Background . The area that would become Caribou , Maine was valued for logging , and tensions over which government owned the territory in the vicinity of the Aroostook River flared during the winter of 1838 - 9 . Lumberjacks from both Maine and New Brunswick each wished to harvest wood to the exclusion of their competitors from across the border , and by December 1838 , competition coupled with fierce national pride led both sides to carry weapons for their own protection . The conflict . On December 29 , 1838 , New Brunswick lumberjacks were spotted felling trees on the estate that had formerly belonged to First Barbary War hero William Eaton . Eaton family members contacted American lumberjacks and other irregulars in the area , and an informal guard was deployed . On New Year ' s Eve , the New Brunswick woodcutters returned , and were promptly ordered to leave by the Eaton guard . Shouting began , and both sides drew firearms and prepared to fire . As this was occurring , however , a group of three Canadian lumberjacks was unexpectedly attacked by a black bear defending a small nearby cub . Though black bears are native to the area , they typically hibernate by this time , confusing the experienced outdoorsmen . The lumberjacks were able to shoot and kill the bear , but not before two of them suffered injuries . The Americans , assuming the shots were directed at them , fired several shots in retaliation . Though none of the Canadians were actually hit by fire , this coupled with the bear attack caused them to flee the area in panic . Aftermath . News of the encounter quickly spread to both sides . In Maine , Governor John Fairfield ordered the local militia to the site to arrest the " unruly wood thieves " in February 1839 . The Canadian lumbermen responded by seizing the Maine Land Agent , and an international incident was sparked . Tensions remained high , with several arrests on both sides , until the Webster - Ashburton Treaty finally settled the issue .

It is still a requirement for officers of combat troops , while it is replaced by a survival course ( German : " Überleben im Einsatz " lit . survival during mission ) . The unarmed close quarter combat instructor part of the course was made into its own separate course in 2010 . It now follows the Krav Maga lessons . The course is separated into two parts : Basic course ( " Grundlehrgang " ) EKL1 Advanced course ( " Leistungslehrgang " ) EKL2 Sample schedule for basic course . Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 " Hungerweek " max . 1 MRE per week Week 4 Sample schedule for advanced course . Week 1 " Week 2 " Week 3 Week 4 Week 5 Einzelkämpferabzeichen .

Frederick of Saxony ( Teutonic Knight ) Duke Frederick of Saxony ( 26 October 1474 – 14 December 1510 ) , also known as Friedrich von Sachsen or Friedrich von Wettin , was the 36th Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights , serving from 1498 - 1510 . He was the third ( and youngest surviving ) son of Albert , Duke of Saxony , and Sidonie of Poděbrady , daughter of George of Podebrady . The Teutonic Knights had been in a long power struggle with Poland over Prussia . Because the Teutonic Knights ' fortunes had declined throughout the 15th century , they hoped that by selecting someone connected by marriage to the ruling Jagiellon dynasty of Poland , they would strengthen their position . Born in Torgau , Frederick was a member of the Albertine line , the junior branch of the prestigious House of Wettin which ruled Saxony . Frederick should not be confused with his cousin of the same name from the Ernestine line , who ruled the Electorate of Saxony . Frederick ' s older brother George had married Barbara , a sister of King John I Albert of Poland . The young duke was elected Grand Master in 1498 . When the Polish king summoned Frederick to do homage for the Order ' s holdings , he referred the matter to the Imperial Reichstag set to meet in Worms in 1495 . The Reichstag informed John I Albert that he could not interfere in the Grand Master ' s free exercise of power in Prussia . Frederick ' s delaying tactics were assisted by the quick succession of three Polish kings during his 12 years in office . Frederick died in Rochlitz . By custom , grand masters of the Order did not marry , so he had neither wife nor descendants .

USS Klamath ( 1865 ) USS " Klamath " — a single - turreted , twin - screw monitor of the United States Navy — was launched 20 April 1865 by S . T . Hambleton & Co . , Cincinnati , OH , under subcontract with Alexander Swift & Co . , also of Cincinnati , OH . She was delivered to the Navy on 6 May 1866 but was never commissioned and saw no service . " Klamath " was a " Casco " - class , light - draft monitor intended for service in the shallow bays , rivers , and inlets of the Confederacy . These warships sacrificed armor plate for a shallow draft and were fitted with a ballast compartment designed to lower them in the water during battle . Design revisions . Though the original designs for the " Casco " - class monitors were drawn by John Ericsson , the final revision was created by Chief Engineer Alban C . Stimers following Rear Admiral Samuel F . Du Pont ' s failed bombardment of Fort Sumter in 1863 . By the time that the plans were put before the Monitor Board in New York City , Ericsson and Stimers had a poor relationship , and the Chief of the Bureau of Construction and Repair , John Lenthall , had little connection to the board . This resulted in the plans being approved and 20 vessels ordered without serious scrutiny of the new design . $ 14 million US was allocated for the construction of these vessels . It was discovered that Simers had failed to compensate for the armor his revisions added to the original plan and this resulted in excessive stress on the wooden hull frames and a freeboard of only 3 inches . Stimers was removed from the control of the project and Ericsson was called in to undo the damage . He was forced to raise the hulls of the monitors under construction by 22 inches to make them seaworthy . Fate . As a result she was laid up at Mound City , IL . She was renamed Harpy 15 June 1869 , but was changed back to " Klamath " 10 August of that same year . She was moved to New Orleans , LA in 1870 , and sold at auction there to Schickels , Harrison & Co . 12 September 1874 .
