About that time he adopted the nom de guerre of " Wir " ( Polish for whirlwind ) , which later became a part of his surname . After the Oath Crisis he was drafted into the Austro - Hungarian Army and sent to the Italian front , where he fought with distinction in shock battalion near Cordolezzo . After the war , in November 1918 he joined the Polish Army and steadily advanced through its ranks . Between 1924 and 1930 he commanded the Pińsk - based Polish 84th Infantry Regiment .

During the Invasion of Poland in 1939 he was the commanding officer of the Polish 38th Infantry Division , formed of reserve units between Tarnów and Kraków . Due to the fast pace of the German advance , the division entered combat on September 9 , before it could be fully mobilized . From September 11 , it was attached to the improvised Małopolska Army and was withdrawing towards the Romanian Bridgehead . Under the leadership of Gen . Kazimierz Sosnkowski , Wir - Konas commanded his division in the battle of Sądowa Wisznia , in which he managed to defeat the much stronger German 2nd Mountain Division . However , shortly before reaching Lwów , the unit became bogged down in the battle of Janów of September 17 .

Bertrand de Blanchefort Bertrand de Blanchefort ( or Blanquefort ) was the sixth Grand Master of the Knights Templar , from 1156 until his death in 1169 . He is known as a great reformer of the order . Personal life . He was born around 1109 , although no exact date is recorded . The Obituary at Reims gives his death as 2 January 1169 . He was the youngest of a family of boys , the children of Lord Godfrey de Blanchefort of Guyenne . He trained in combat from a young age , but during his time as Grand Master , placed more emphasis on reform and negotiation . This helped to foster the Templars image as guardians , not brutes . Military record . His earliest action as Grand Master was with Baldwin III of Jerusalem , with whom he fought against Nur ad - Din Zangi . However , he was taken prisoner after Baldwin was defeated at Banyas in 1157 . The defeat allowed an ambush to be set for Blanchefort , who had dismissed his Frankish soldiers after battle ceased . He was held in captivity for three years in Aleppo before being released to Byzantine emperor Manuel I Comnenus when the emperor made peace with Nur ad - Din . Bertrand accompanied King Amalric I during the expedition against Egypt in 1163 . The expedition ended in failure , despite the considerable numbers the Christians could draw upon . Bertrand refused to participate in a second expedition in 1168 , as heavy losses were almost certain . Reform . Blanchefort petitioned the Pope to use the title , " Master by Grace of God " , which fitted the Templar ' s position as rising stars in the church , a favor which Rome gladly granted . His internal reforms were more important however . He wrote the " Retraits " , which established structure within the order . This meant knights had clearer roles and protocols . He also established checks within the leaderships of the order , which stopped future Grand Masters deciding the direction of the Templars , without the backing of the knights . His work on creating negotiating roles within the order is also worth noting . After the failed expedition to Egypt , it was the Templars that helped draw up a peace treaty . In popular culture . From the 1960s onwards it has erroneusly been asserted that Bertrand de Blanchefort was related to a family of the same name located near Rennes - le - Château This erroneus assertion was first discredited in France in 1984 .
Central Security Service The Central Security Service ( CSS ) is an agency of the United States Department of Defense , established in 1972 by a Presidential Directive to promote full partnership between the National Security Agency ( NSA ) and the Service Cryptologic Elements ( SCE ) of the United States Armed Forces in the field of signals intelligence . Emblem . The blue background of the CSS emblem represents " fidelity " and " steadfastness " , with the symbols for the cryptologic service elements provided shown clockwise from top right as follows : Army Intelligence and Security Command , United States Marine Corps , Naval Security Group , United States Coast Guard and Air Force Intelligence , Surveillance and Reconnaissance Agency with the symbol of the NSA / CSS in the center . Tasks . The Central Security Service was established by Presidential Directive in 1972 to promote full partnership between the National Security Agency ( NSA ) and the Service Cryptologic Elements ( SCE ) of the United States Armed Forces . According to James Bamford , NSA / CSS was initially conceived as a separate " fourth service " beside the three United States Armed Forces . The latter resisted this idea , and therefore the CSS was founded as an inter - service organization . The day - to - day work of the CSS is to capture enemy signals ( radar , telemetry , radio / satellite communications ) using the means of the involved service . For example , the Navy has special submarines for tapping undersea cables ; the Air Force operates aircraft with sophisticated antennas and processing gear to listen to enemy radar and radio ; and on the ground , the Army operates similar eavesdropping equipment . Special Collection Service . The Special Collection Service ( SCS ) is a group within the Central Security Service that is not officially recognized . Its purpose is to put sophisticated eavesdropping equipment — from bugs to parabolic antennas — in difficult - to - reach places . It also attempts to target for recruitment key foreign communications personnel such as database managers , systems administrators , and IT specialists . The SCS facility is located in Beltsville , Maryland . The specialized intelligence gathering capabilities of the Special Collection Service include : The combination of Central Intelligence Agency and National Security Agency resources are used to cover the requisite speciality skills tasked of this agency into a single clandestine intelligence organization that falls under director of NSA and secretary of defense oversight . Given the nature of post 9 / 11 counter terrorism strategies employed by the United States of America the operations of the Special Collection Service have experienced significant growth in scale and complexity .

Rex Lassalle Reginald Andrew Lassalle , better known as Rex Lassalle was born in Belmont , Port of Spain , Trinidad in 1945 . He attended Belmont Boys Intermediate School and St . Mary ' s College , Port of Spain . He is a former lieutenant in the Trinidad and Tobago Regiment who , together with Raffique Shah led a mutiny by the Regiment on April 21 , 1970 ( " see Black Power Revolution " ) . Lassalle attended the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst from January 1965 to December 1966 . After returning to Trinidad he served as a second lieutenant and then a lieutenant . Following the mutiny he was charged with over fifty offenses including treason and mutiny . Although he was never actually tried for treason he was court martial ed in March 1971 and sentenced to 15 years imprisonment . He appealed , won the appeal , and was eventually set free after an appeal by the State to the Privy Council and was freed on July 27 , 1972 . In total he served 27 months in prison . He was strongly influenced by his parents during childhood and particularly their intuitive insights into nature and animals . The impact of this is reflected in his 1999 book on 9 Star Ki or Chinese astrology , Lassalle ' s in - depth personal treatment of the subject . His grounding in 9 Star Ki came through Michio Kushi the well known macrobiotics educator . He went on to study Osteopathy at the College of Osteopaths in Borehamwood , Hertfordshire , England and qualified in 1974 . Another profound influence on his work at this time was that of Dr . Major Bertrand DeJarnette the renowned American engineer , inventor , osteopath and chiropractor . He then studied acupuncture and homeopathy under Professor Malcolm Stemp of Newton Abbott , Devon the accomplished British homeopath . Around this time ( late 1970s ) he became involved with martial arts and studied under Kanetsuka Sensei of the British Aikido Federation and also Chiba Sensei where he picked up many techniques concerning the breath which he then applied , along with his knowledge of acupuncture , to develop his own style of Shiatsu . He founded a school of shiatsu in the mid - 1980s called Hara Shiatsu International and trained the first generation of Shiatsu teachers in the UK . Lassalle was strongly influenced by Buddhist philosophy especially that of the Tibetan and Zen traditions and this would reflect itself in his approach to health , well being , nutrition and also to his particular style of 9 Star Ki astrology . In recent years his work has been in providing services to the Spa industry during the course of which ( 2009 ) he wrote a book on spa massage . He continues to develop new methods in this area .

Diesel Boats Forever insignia The Diesel Boats Forever Insignia was an unofficial uniform breast pin worn in violation of uniform regulations by some officers and men of the United States Navy ' s Submarine Service in the 1970s . The United States Navy authorizes the Submarine Combat Patrol Insignia for war patrols in any submarine , and the SSBN Deterrent Patrol Insignia for any patrols in a nuclear ballistic missile submarine . However , there was no way for a diesel boat submariner to earn a recognition pin in peacetime , a situation that exacerbated the natural rivalry between the two groups of submariners . ( Regulus missile patrols did not earn the SSBN patrol pin . ) During the 1950s and 1960s , the early classes of nuclear submarines suffered reliability problems , and on occasion were unable to complete their various missions . In 1969 , USS " Barbel " ( SS - 580 ) was ordered to Japan to relieve a nuclear attack submarine that suffered such a casualty . As the crew celebrated the nuclear boat ' s misfortune , they held a contest to design a pin recognizing when a diesel boat needed to take a " broke - down nuke boat ' s " mission . The winning design , submitted by former commercial artist ETR3 ( SS ) Leon Figuredo , showed a guppy submarine embraced by two mermaids ( sea hags ) , along with the letters " DBF . " Holes in the scroll allowed for stars to be added for subsequent awards . Upon arrival at Yokosuka , the design was taken to " the Thieves ' Alley " where a local craftsman made up one thousand pins , some gilt for the officers and some in natural ( gray ) color for the men . When the " Barbel " s picked up their pins , they made the mistake of leaving the die with the craftsman . The original intent of the " Barbel " s was that the pin ( and subsequent stars ) would be awarded to the crews of diesel boats that relieved nuke boats . The Yokosuka craftsman , however , began producing and selling the pins to anyone who wanted one . In 1970 a drawing was sent to the Navy Department for official approval , which was never given . Without official support , the " proper " display of the pin was impossible to enforce , even with the cooperation of lenient commanders . The original intent of " times a diesel relieved a nuke " was lost , and the most common meaning of the stars became " number of diesel boats served on . "
Grace Dieu ( ship ) Grace Dieu was launched in 1418 as the flagship of Henry V of England and was one of the largest ships of her time . She sailed on only one voyage , and spent most of her life laid up in the River Hamble , where in 1439 she was struck by a bolt of lightning and burnt . Construction . She was built to a three - layered clinker - built design by William Soper , a burgess of Southampton and Clerk of the King ' s Ships . A dock was specially built for her construction near Town Quay in Southampton . Design . Ordered in 1416 to fight Genoan carracks , " Grace Dieu " was completed in 1418 and was one of the largest wooden ships of its time , measuring in length . Estimates of her weight range between 1 , 400 tons and 2 , 750 tons . Two other ships , " Valentine " and " Falcon " were built to escort her . 1420 voyage . " Grace Dieu " and her escorts appear to have only set sail once , in 1420 , under the command of the Earl of Devon . The expedition suffered a mutiny soon after leaving Southampton and diverted to St . Helens on the Isle of Wight . Loss . Subsequently , " Grace Dieu " was laid - up in the River Hamble . Already dismasted and stripped of equipment , she was burnt to the waterline after being set ablaze by a bolt of lightning in 1439 . Rediscovery . The remains of " Grace Dieu " are still in the River Hamble at Bursledon , near Southampton , Hampshire . Until 1933 the wreck was believed to be that of a Danish galley or a nineteenth - century merchant ship , but in that year a proper survey established both the true identity of the wreck , and the great size of the ship . The site was designated under the Protection of Wrecks Act on 5 February 1974 and was excavated by Channel 4 ' s archaeology programme Time Team in 2004 for their 2005 series .
