58th Infantry Division ( Wehrmacht ) The 58th Infantry Division was a unit of the German Army ( Wehrmacht ) during World War II . It was formed in 1939 , took part in the Battle of France in 1940 , and then Operation Barbarossa in 1941 . The 58th was then constantly engaged on the Eastern Front until the end of the war in 1945 . Formation . The 58th Infantry formed in Wehrkreis X , as part of the general expansion of the Wehrmacht upon the declaration of war . Composed of reservists , including initially many World War I veterans and a small active cadre supplied by regular Divisions , it was speedily dispatched to the French border on a defensive mission . Meanwhile it was training younger troops , who had been called up at the outbreak of war , in its home area around Lüneburg in Northern Germany . Combat History . The Division first saw combat in the West . From 10 May 1940 to 25 June 1940 it participated in the Battle of France , after which it served as part as of the German occupying forces in Belgium , until 20 April 1941 . In late April the 58th was transferred east where troops of the division assembled in East Prussia ready for the start of the campaign against the Soviet Union . Attacking with Army Group North the 58th Infantry Division penetrated as far as Leningrad where the front lines stabilised into trench warfare . This was followed by two and a half years of defensive fighting on the Volkhov , around the Demyansk Pocket , at Krassny boron , at Mga , at Newel , Strugi Krassnyje . At the beginning of October 1943 , the 58th division is pulled out of siege lines around Leningrad , and embarked on trains to the south . With German intelligence observing signs of Russian preparations for an offensive on the army group boundary , the division is switched to the 16th Army reserve . However the timing and intensity of the Soviet attack still caught German command by surprise and by 6 October four Soviet armies capture significant transport hub of the city of Nevel , with only the first elements of 58 only just arriving in the region . The 58th infantry division is put into action on the northern flank of the breakthrough as the Russians continue to attempt to expand their offensive . The Soviet armies continue to chip away in the Nevel area , into January 1944 with out ever completely breaking through as the Germans bring up just enough reinforcements to stop them . The division was again taken from the front and this time rushed north when the red army finally cracked the siege lines around Leningrad . Partially committed near Luga , 2 infantry regiments had to be rescued from encirclement . The division was then shifted further north and fought in the Battle of Narva ( 1944 ) . The division ended the year trapped in a small bridgehead around Memel , with their only option was to retreat down the Spit towards Konigsburg . There the last soldiers of the division under Colonel Eggemann went into Soviet captivity .

USS Catherine Johnson ( SP - 390 ) USS " Catherine Johnson " ( SP - 379 ) , later USS " Freight Lighter No . 161 , later USS " YF - 161 , later USS " YC - 660 " , was a freight lighter in commission in the United States Navy from 1918 to 1930 . " Catherine Johnson " was built as the commercial steam freight lighter " Edith B . " in 1913 . She had been renamed " Catherine Johnson " by the time the U . S . Navy inspected her in 1917 for possible naval use during World War I and assigned her the section patrol number SP - 390 . The Navy eventually purchased her and placed her in service as USS " Catherine Johnson " ( SP - 390 ) on 15 June 1918 . " Catherine Johnson " was assigned to the 3rd Naval District , where she transported supplies for the next 12 years , probably in the New York City area . Her name was changed to " Freight Lighter No . 161 " sometime before mid - 1920 . When the U . S . Navy adopted its modern hull number system on 17 July 1920 , she received the " freight lighter " classification " YF " and was renamed USS " YF - 161 " . On 19 November 1930 , " YF - 161 " was placed out of service . At about the same time , she was reclassified as an " open lighter , non - self - propelled " ( YC ) and renamed USS " YC - 660 " . " YC - 660 " was sold on 29 September 1932 .
Volunteer military A volunteer military or " all - volunteer military " is one which derives its manpower from volunteers rather than conscription or mandatory service . A country may offer attractive pay and benefits through military recruitment to attract volunteers . Many countries with volunteer militaries reserve the right to renew conscription in the event of an emergency . The Indian Army is the world ' s largest standing volunteer army . According to the International Institute for Strategic Studies , in 2010 the army had a strength of 1 , 129 , 900 active personnel and 960 , 000 reserve personnel In recent decades , the trend among numerous countries has been to move from conscription to all - volunteer military forces . One significant example is in France , which has historically been the first to introduce modern conscription and whose model was followed by many other countries in Europe and elsewhere around the world .

In the wake of the Second Margrave War and the Princes ' uprising , Albert Alcibiades was feuding not only with his neighbors , including Würzburg , Bamberg and Nuremberg , but also with distant prince - bishops and princes . After the questions of faith , which head played a crucial role in the Prince ' s rebellion , head been resolved in the negotiations which resulted in the Peace of Passau , Albert II Alcibiades continued his military operations unabated , thereby isolated himself from his former allies . He could not keep the advantages he had gained over his neighbors permanently . The war gradually moved into his own country , the margraviate of Brandenburg - Kulmbach ( for example , the Siege of Kulmbach and the Plassenburg ) and this eventually led to the Margrave ' s defeat . Despite losing the war , the House of Hohenzollern succeeded in keeping the war - torn Margraviate and Albert Alcibiades was succeeded as Margrave by his cousin George Frederick . The siege of the city of Hof had been documented in extraordinary detail by the historian Jacob Schlemmer . The key events are summarized in a woodcut by the Nuremberg artist Hans Glaser . Among the leaders of the attackers were Henry IV of Plauen and Georg Wolf of Kotzau , who remained after the siege as the governor of Hof . Hof Castle was part of the city ' s defensive system , along with the city wall . The nuns of the Monastery Hof , led by Abbess Amalie of Hirschberg , had escaped to Cheb ( ) . The Church of St . Lorenz was looted and burned during the siege . The Watch Tower , although of little strategic importance , also burned out . The Hospital Church , was used as a war camp by the attackers , and was therefore attacked and destroyed by the city ' s defenders . Exhibition . In the Bavarian Vogtland Museum in Hof , a scale model of the city at the time of the siege , is on display . Prominent buildings , streets , the fortifications and the city limits at the time , are reproduced very accurately . In coöperation with the German Figurine Museum at the Plassenburg in Kulmbach , a Diorama of the assailants has been put on display , and also some equipment of the soldiers . Stone cannonballs are embedded into the walls of several buildings within the walled city , including the St . Michael ' s Church .

McKinnon was born in Paisley and started his career at junior side Petershill before moving south of the border to join Carlisle United , then of the Lancashire Combination . He then moved even further south , joining London side Woolwich Arsenal in May 1908 .
