Luftwaffe Field Division The Luftwaffe Field Divisions ( German : " Luftwaffen - Feld - Divisionen " or LwFD ) were German military formations during World War II . History . The divisions were originally authorized in October 1942 , following suggestions that the German Army , the " Heer " , could be bolstered by transferring personnel from other services . The head of the " Luftwaffe " , Hermann Göring , formulated an alternative plan to raise his own infantry formations under the command of " Luftwaffe " officers ; this was at least partly due to political differences with the " Heer " . Goering took great pride in the degree of political commitment and indoctrination of the air force men ( he went as far as to describe the air - force paratroopers as " political soldiers " ) while the Army was considered ( by Nazi standards ) too " conservative " ( linked to traditions and ideals harking back to the Imperial days of the Kaiser ) . The plan was approved , and the divisions were raised from 200 , 000 – 250 , 000 " Luftwaffe " ground , support and other excess personnel . They were initially organized with two Jäger regiments of three battalions each , along with an artillery battalion and other support units , but were substantially smaller than equivalent " Heer " divisions , and by Göring ' s personal order were intended to be restricted to defensive duties in quieter sectors . Most of the units spent much of their existence on the Eastern Front : Luftwaffe Field Divisions were present at actions such as the " Little Stalingrad of the North " , the attempt to relieve Velikiye Luki ; the attempted defence of Vitebsk during Operation Bagration , and the fighting in the Courland Pocket , though they also fought in other theatres . The Luftwaffe Field Divisions initially remained under " Luftwaffe " command , but late in 1943 those that had not already been disbanded were handed over to the " Heer " and were reorganized as standard infantry divisions with three two - battalion rifle regiments ( retaining their numbering , but with " Luftwaffe " attached to distinguish them from similarly numbered divisions already existing in the " Heer " ) and Army officers . Until taken over by the " Heer " ( and in many cases for some time afterwards ) these units were issued with standard " Luftwaffe " " feldblau " uniforms , and being so easily identifiable were said to often be singled out by opposit forces . Their reputation as combat troops was poor , despite the high standard of " Luftwaffe " recruits , at least in part from being required to perform roles ( ground warfare ) for which they as airmen had little training . They were frequently used for rear echelon duties to free up front line troops .

Amyntas ( son of Andromenes ) Amyntas ( in Greek Aμυντας ; died 330 BC ) was a Macedonian officer in Alexander the Great ' s army , son of Andromenes from Tymphaia . After the battle of the Granicus , 334 BC , when the garrison of Sardis was quietly surrendered to Alexander , Amyntas was the officer sent forward to receive it from the commander , Mithrenes . Two years after , 332 , we again hear of him as being sent into Macedonia to collect levies , while Alexander after the siege of Gaza advanced to Egypt ; and he returned with them in the ensuing year , when the king was in possession of Susa . After the execution of Philotas on a charge of treason , 330 BC , Amyntas and two other sons of Andromenes ( Attalus and Simmias ) were arrested on suspicion of having been engaged in the plot . The suspicion was strengthened by their known intimacy with Philotas , and by the fact that their brother Polemon had fled from the camp when the latter was apprehended , or according to Curtius , when he was given up to the torture . Amyntas defended himself and his brothers ably , and their innocence being further established by Polemon ' s reappearance , they were acquitted . Some little time after , Amyntas was killed by an arrow at the siege of a village . It is doubtful whether the son of Andromenes is the Amyntas mentioned by Curtius as commander of a portion of the Macedonian troops at the battle of Issus , 333 BC ; or again , the person spoken of as leading a brigade at the forcing of the Cilician Gates ( now called the Gülek Pass ) , 331 BC . But Amyntas appears to have been a common name among the Macedonians .
Air force officer ranks Air force s of most of the countries use system similar to Armies . However , the RAF and the air forces of many Commonwealth countries , or those formerly under a British influence , use a different set of ranks loosely based on naval equivalents ; Lieutenant , Commander , Captain and Commodore are prefixed for air force use with " Flight " , " Wing " , " Group " and " Air " , respectively ( the first three being the units that they used to command ) . NATO Rank Codes . To assist in the comparison of ranks in the armed forces of different countries , established NATO rank codes are used . These are established codes for determining the seniority of officer and other ranks in NATO countries for a particular joint task group or command structure , although specific appointments designate a higher level of seniority over other equivalent rank codes in a given situation . Officer ranks go from OF - 1 ( applying to all subaltern officers below captain ) up to OF - 10 ; OF ( D ) being a special category for trainee officers awaiting a commission . Other Ranks ( also known as enlisted men ) are classified from OR - 1 to OR - 9 . The system should not be confused with the pay grades used in the US military . While countries outside the NATO command structure ( including some NATO member countries such as France ) do not strictly fall into this classification structure and there may be incidences of overlap ( particularly in OR ranks between countries ) the codes still provide a useful gauge in determining what ranks are broadly equivalent . Generals / Marshals / Air Officers . These are the highest ranks . Promotion to a rank above OF - 9 is now rare and usually reserved for wartime . General of the Air Force is an example of such a rank . Note that there is doubt about rank equivalency in countries that have both colonel - generals and generals but no brigadier - generals , such as German Empire and Russia - often it is considered that in these countries a colonel - general equates to an OF - 9 rank , a general to OF - 8 , a lieutenant - general to OF - 7 , and a major - general to OF - 6 ( i . e . the ranks below colonel - general all move down one grade ) . Other officers . ¹ No officer of the French Air Force has ever been created a " Maréchal " . < br > ² Introduced on 1 July 2000 , when promotions to the rank of Överste 1 . graden ( a field officer rank ) ceased . < br > ³ Promotion to the rank of Överste 1 . graden ceased on 1 July 2000 , when the new junior general officer rank of Brigadgeneral was introduced . Rank insignia . Whilst there is a wide range of air force rank insignia in use , many air forces use army - style rank insignia whilst others follow the Royal Air Force style ( shown below ) .

Trench watch The Trench watch ( wristlet ) was a type of watch that came into use by the military during World War I , as pocket watches were not practical in combat . It was a transitional design between pocket watch es and wrist watch es , incorporating features of both . The very first watch that somebody adapted to wear on a wrist is unknown . The first series of purpose - made wrist watches was produced by Girard - Perregaux in 1880 for the German Navy . During World War I numerous companies , including Omega , Longines , and others produced wrist watches for the military . These watches were of virtually identical style with an enamel dial , wide white numerals , and a luminescent hour hand . Often they did not bear the name of the manufacturer , though the movement , originally designed in the 1890s for ladies ’ pendant watches , was marked " Swiss " . From pocket watches those trench watches inherited hinged front and back covers . The lugs for a strap looked like a thick wire attachment to the classical round shape of pocket watches rather than an integrated part of the body of the later and modern wrist watches . The name " " wristlet " " was used until early 1930s and was eventually replaced by the modern name " wrist watch " .
William Bradford ( American Revolutionary printer ) William Bradford ( 1719 – September 25 , 1791 ) was a printer , soldier , and leader during the American Revolution from Philadelphia . Bradford was born in New York City in 1719 , and was the grandson of the printer William Bradford . He was apprenticed to ( and later a partner of ) his uncle Andrew Bradford in Philadelphia . This relationship ended in 1741 . He visited England that year , returning in 1742 with equipment to open his own printing firm as well as a library . Bradford was the publisher of " The Pennsylvania Journal " , whose first number appeared on December 2 , 1742 . In later years each issue had the still - recognized image of the snake chopped into segments with the motto " Unite or Die " . Variations of this logo were also used by Paul Revere , Benjamin Franklin , and others . In 1754 he also opened the London Coffeehouse in Philadelphia and began to write marine insurance . As a publisher and writer he attacked many policies of the British government , and was especially vocal in his opposition to the Stamp Act in 1765 . The first Continental Congress met in Philadelphia in 1774 , and Bradford was named as the official printer for the Congress . In this role he printed the formal resolutions , broadsides , and documents such as the Declaration of Rights , that the Congress issued . When the American Revolutionary War started , Bradford left his business in his son ' s hands and , despite being middle aged , went into active military service with the Pennsylvania militia . He was made a major , and later promoted to colonel . He saw action at Trenton and Princeton , and at Fort Mifflin . Because the wound he received at the battle of Princeton continued to trouble him , when British forces withdrew from Philadelphia he resigned from the militia and returned to the city . His son Thomas Bradford had continued " The Pennsylvania Journal " during his absence . Now they became partners , and over the years expanded their publishing house . After William ' s death on September 25 , 1791 Thomas continued their enterprise . A second son , William ( sometimes called William , Jr . ) , joined the Continental Army , became a lawyer and was later Chief Justice of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court and U . S . Attorney General .
