Canadian Military Colleges Canadian Military Colleges ( CMC ) was a group of military academies in Canada . Formed in 1948 following the reorganization of the tri - services colleges of the Royal Canadian Navy , Royal Canadian Air Force and Canadian Army following World War II into a grouping . The CMC initially consisted of : In 1952 Collège militaire royal de Saint - Jean ( CMR ) was added to the CMC . After 1995 , the Department of National Defence disbanded the CMC and all military training and education re - directed to Royal Military College of Canada in Kingston , Ontario .

Vertical launching system A vertical launching system ( VLS ) is a modern type of missile - firing system used aboard the submarine s and surface vessels of several navies around the world . Derived from the launch systems developed for ballistic missile s aboard SSBN s , a VLS forms a scaled - down equivalent for launching cruise missile s such as the Tomahawk and surface - to - air missile s ( SAMs ) such as the Standard missile . When installed on a SSN ( nuclear - powered attack submarine ) , a VLS allows a greater number and variety of weapons to be deployed in comparison to using only torpedo tube s . A VLS allows surface combatants to have a greater number of weapons ready for firing at any given time compared to older launching systems such as the Mk - 13 single - arm and Mk - 26 twin - arm launchers , which were fed from behind by a magazine below the main deck . In addition to greater firepower , VLS is much more damage tolerant and reliable than the previous systems , and has a lower radar cross - section ( RCS ) . The U . S . Navy now relies exclusively on VLS for its guided missile destroyer s and cruiser s , an advanced Mk 57 VLS system is projected to be used on the new Zumwalt class destroyer , and the older Mk - 13 and Mk - 26 systems remain in service on ships that were sold to other countries such as Taiwan , Greece , and Poland . Hot launch and cold launch . Western VLSs have the missile cells arranged in a grid with one lid per cell and are " hot launch " systems , i . e . the engine ignites within the cell during the launch , and thus it requires exhaust piping for the missile flames and gasses , while Russia produces both grid systems and a revolver design with more than one missile per lid , and the People ' s Republic of China uses a circular " cold launch " system that eject s the missile from the launch tube before igniting the engine . Russia also uses a cold launch system for some of its VLS missile systems , e . g . , the Tor Missile System . An advantage of a hot - launch system is that the missile propels itself out of the launching cell using its own engine , which eliminates the need for a separate system to eject the missile from the launching tube . This potentially makes a hot - launch system relatively light , small , and economical to develop and produce . A potential disadvantage is that a malfunctioning missile could destroy the launch tube . The advantage of the cold - launch system is in its safety : should a missile engine malfunction during launch , the cold - launch system can eject the missile thereby reducing or eliminating the threat . For this reason , Russian VLSs are often designed with a slant so that a malfunctioning missile will land in the water instead of on the ship ' s deck . Another advantage of the cold - launch system is its low life - cycle cost of the launching tubes : since the missile ' s engine ignites outside of the tube , the tube is not subject to extreme heat blast and enjoys a long life span .

Busby Busby is the English name for the Hungarian " prémes csákó " or " kucsma " , a military head - dress made of fur , originally worn by Hungarian hussar s . In its original Hungarian form the busby was a cylindrical fur cap , having a bag of coloured cloth hanging from the top . The end of this bag was attached to the right shoulder as a defense against sabre cuts . In Great Britain busbies are of two kinds : ( a ) the hussar busby , cylindrical in shape , with a bag ; this is worn by hussars and the Royal Horse Artillery ; ( b ) the rifle busby , a folding cap of astrakhan ( curly lambswool ) formerly worn by rifle regiments , in shape somewhat resembling a Glengarry but taller . Both have straight plumes in the front of the headdress . The popularity of this military headdress in its hussar form reached a height in the years immediately before World War I ( 1914 – 18 ) . It was widely worn in the British ( hussars , yeomanry , and horse artillery ) , German ( hussars ) , Russian ( hussars ) , Dutch ( cavalry and artillery ) , Belgian ( Guides and field artillery ) , Bulgarian ( Life Guards ) , Romanian ( cavalry ) , Austro - Hungarian ( Hungarian generals ) Serbian ( Royal Guards ) , Spanish ( hussars ) and Italian ( light cavalry ) armies . Possibly the name ' s original sense of a " busby wig " came from association with Dr Richard Busby , headmaster of Westminster School in the late seventeenth century ; the later phrase " buzz wig " may have been derived from busby . An alternative explanation is that the British hussar cap of the early 19th century was named after the hatter who supplied the officer ' s version — W . Busby of the Strand London . The modern British busby is worn with full dress by bands , the Royal Horse Artillery and ceremonial detachments at regimental expense . In its hussar version it is now made of black nylon fur , although Bandmasters still retain the original animal fur . The busby should not be mistaken for the much taller bearskin cap , worn most notably by the five regiments of Foot Guards of the Household Division ( Grenadier , Coldstream , Scots , Irish and Welsh Guards ) . Around 1900 the word " busby " was used colloquially to denote the tall bear and racoonskin " caps " worn by foot guards and fusiliers and the feather bonnet s of highland infantry . This usage is now obsolete .
James Smith ( Medal of Honor , 1864 ) James Smith ( 1826 – October 31 , 1881 ) was a Union Navy sailor in the American Civil War and a recipient of the U . S . military ' s highest decoration , the Medal of Honor , for his actions at the Battle of Mobile Bay . Born in 1826 in Belfast , Ireland , Smith immigrated to the United States and was living in New York when he joined the U . S . Navy . He served during the Civil War as a captain of the forecastle and gun captain on the . At the Battle of Mobile Bay on August 5 , 1864 , he " fought his gun with skill and courage " despite heavy fire . For this action , he was awarded the Medal of Honor four months later , on December 31 , 1864 . Smith ' s official Medal of Honor citation reads : As captain of a gun on board the U . S . S . " Richmond " during action against rebel forts and gunboats and with the ram " Tennessee " , in Mobile Bay , 5 August 1864 . Despite damage to his ship and the loss of several men on board as enemy fire raked her decks , Smith fought his gun with skill and courage throughout the prolonged battle which resulted in the surrender of the rebel ram " Tennessee " and in the successful attacks carried out on Fort Morgan . Smith was married at St . James ' Church , Manhattan , in May 1870 and had three children . He died on October 31 , 1881 , at age 54 or 55 and was buried in an unmarked pauper ' s grave in Calvary Cemetery , New York City . In the 1980s , one of his great - grandsons began an effort to have a marker placed on Smith ' s grave . Because other bodies had been buried in the same location , cemetery officials would allow neither the grave to be marked nor Smith ' s remains to be moved . The dispute culminated in an October 2 , 1985 , ruling by the New York Supreme Court which ordered that Smith ' s body be disinterred for reburial in Arlington National Cemetery , Virginia . His remains were interred at Arlington on May 30 , 1986 , following services at Manhattan ' s St . James ' Church , where Smith was married 116 years earlier , and a ceremony at the Lincoln Memorial .
