HMS Glatton ( 1871 ) HMS " Glatton " was a breastwork monitor which served in the Victorian Royal Navy . Design . She was designed by Sir Edward Reed to a specific formula determined by the Board of Admiralty , and her purpose was never made wholly clear . Reed himself said " there is no vessel with the objects of which I am less well acquainted than the " Glatton " . She was designed strictly upon orders which I received and upon the object of which I was never informed " . The Controller , the fourth sea lord , stated that she was to be used for " the defence of our own harbours and roadsteads , and for attacking those of the enemy " . In reality , her lack of freeboard would appear to have precluded any operations whatsoever except those in calm weather and smooth water . Her freeboard was no more than three feet amidships , and at the bow . The ship was designed so that , although the main armament was mounted in a single turret , there would in theory be no point on the horizon to which at least one gun could not point , whatever the orientation of the ship . To achieve this the superstructure was made to be very narrow , so that at least one of the guns in the turret could fire on targets to the after aspect of the ship . It would appear that the blast effects on the superstructure from firing abaft the beam were not regarded as important . According to Admiral G . A . Ballard , who served on board as a junior officer , stops were fitted to prevent the firing of the main artillery much past the beam , but not until some years after the ship was launched . " Glatton " was the best protected ship of her day , with some 35 % of her displacement being devoted to armour . Service history . She was commissioned in 1872 immediately into the Dockyard reserve , as tender to the gunnery school " Excellent " . She was a part of the 1878 Particular Service Squadron . In July of that year she was fired upon during live firing trials . In 1881 she was fitted to discharge torpedoes . At the same time three QF 6 pounder Hotchkiss and 4 machine guns were added to her armament . In 1887 she was specially commissioned for the manoeuvres , and with allocated to the defence of the Thames estuary . This is her only recorded operational sea - time . Thereafter she passed through second class reserve , fleet reserve and dockyard reserve status , until she was sold in 1903 .
Minamoto no Yoriyoshi He held the title , passed down from his father , of " Chinjufu - shogun " , Commander - in - chief of the Defense of the North . Yoriyoshi accompanied his father Minamoto no Yorinobu on his own missions to defend the Empire , quelling rebellions and disturbances . Thus he gained much of his knowledge of tactics and strategy . The Zenkunen War in which he fought began in 1051 and lasted , with some brief breaks , twelve years . In 1063 , Yoriyoshi founded Tsurugaoka Hachiman - gū in Kamakura which was to become , roughly a century later , the primary shrine of the Minamoto clan when they began the Kamakura shogunate .
Battle of Pine Bluff The Battle of Pine Bluff was fought on October 25 , 1863 , between Union and Confederate forces in Arkansas . Union troops under Colonel Powell Clayton , having taken Pine Bluff on September 17 , remained in the town with the 5th Kansas Cavalry and the 1st Indiana Cavalry . The Confederates , led by John S . Marmaduke , attempted to retake the town by attacking from three sides . The Union garrison , supported by 300 recently freed slaves , set up barricades in the courthouse square using cotton bales , along with nine cannons . Marmaduke made several attacks on the square but was unsuccessful .
Gloster F . 5 / 34 The Gloster F . 5 / 34 was a British fighter of the 1930s . It was a single - seat , single - engine monoplane of all - metal cantilever construction ; the undercarriage was of the tailwheel type with retractable main units . Produced in competition with other designs to meet a requirement for a fighter aircraft that could operate in the far East , it was overtaken by more capable designs and the requirement was abandoned with no aircraft being selected . Design and development . The F . 5 / 34 was the first monoplane fighter built by Gloster and the last design penned by H . P . Folland for the company . It was developed in response to Air Ministry Specification F . 5 / 34 , for a fighter using an air - cooled engine armed with eight machine guns suitable for hot climate use . Powered by an 840 hp Bristol Mercury IX nine - cylinder radial engine , the F . 5 / 34 , unofficially dubbed the " Unnamed Fighter " , was the company ' s first monoplane landplane design and featured many of the trademark Gloster design elements including the tail and close - fitting cowling that resembled the earlier Gauntlet and Gladiator biplane fighters . The low wing cantilever mainplane was built in one piece with light - alloy spars running through from tip to tip and ribs made from channelling with steel and light - alloy tube struts . Duralumin stressed - skin was used on the mainplane and tail unit with fabric - covered Frise aileron s . The fuselage was a monocoque structure built up from light , fabricated oval - section rings with duralumin skinning . Development was delayed somewhat by the demands of the Gladiator production programme so that flight trials of the first prototype did not commence until December 1937 while the second prototype was not completed until May 1938 . Testing . In competition with the Gloster for the requirement were the Bristol Type 146 , Martin - Baker M . B . 2 and the Vickers Venom , which would be tested by the Aeroplane and Armament Experimental Establishment . Flight Magazine ( July 1 , 1937 ) shows the F . 5 / 34 taking off from Hucclecote airdrome and mentions its appearance at the RAF Display of that year . By the time the F . 5 / 34 began its flight tests , the 8 - gun Hawker Hurricane was in service and the Supermarine Spitfire in production so that further development of the Gloster fighter was abandoned . However , compared to its contemporaries , test pilots found the F . 5 / 34 prototypes had a shorter takeoff , better initial climb , were more responsive and manoeuvrable due to ailerons that did not become excessively heavy at high speed . Handling was considered very good and the all - round cockpit visibility was far better than the other designs . The Gloster F . 5 / 34 debuted at the 1938 Hendon Air Show , but soon after , both prototypes ( " K5604 " and " K8089 " ) were relegated to experimental flying and finally as instructional airframes until May 1941 . A legend exists that the F . 5 / 34 was the inspiration for the Japanese Zero , probably stemming from a superficial similarity between the two machines and Gloster ' s past links with the Japanese such as the Nakajima A2N .

USCGC Evergreen ( WLB - 295 ) The USCGC " Evergreen " ( WLB - 295 , WAGO - 295 , and WMEC - 295 ) was originally built as a sea going buoy tender ( WLB ) . A " Cactus " , or A - class vessel , " Evergreen " s preliminary design was completed by the United States Lighthouse Service and the final design was produced by Marine Ironworks and Shipbuilding Corporation in Duluth , Minnesota ( also the builders ) . The keel was laid on 15 April 1942 . It was launched on 3 July 1942 and commissioned on 30 April 1943 . The original cost for the hull and machinery was $ 871 , 946 . " Evergreen " is one of 39 original seagoing buoy tenders built between 1942 - 1944 . All but one of the original tenders , the , were built in Duluth . Like all of these tenders , the " Evergreen " was named after a plant . Starting In 1948 , " Evergreen " served as part of the International Ice Patrol , in addition to her duties as a buoy tender . In 1956 , " Evergreen " served as the commanding vessel in the rescue of survivors from the " Andrea Doria " sinking . In 1964 , " Evergreen " was converted to an oceanographic vessel and re - designated WAGO - 295 . During the conversion , a computer was installed , and " Evergreen " became the first government oceanographic ship to have one . As an oceanographic vessel , she was also converted from a black hull paint scheme to a white hull paint scheme , which the vessel wore until it was decommissioned . In 1968 " Evergreen " suffered a major fire in her engine room while tied to the pier . The fire was extinguished and the vessel was repaired . In 1972 , " Evergreen " underwent extensive modification , including the addition of a bow thruster , and changes to her superstructure . In 1982 , when the Coast Guard ' s oceanographic research program ended , the vessel was converted to a Medium Endurance Cutter , and re - designated WMEC - 295 . " Evergreen " was decommissioned on 26 June 1990 . She was used by the Navy as a target and sunk in 1992 .
Self - inflicted wound A self - inflicted wound ( SIW ) , is the act of harming oneself where there are no underlying psychological problems related to the self - injury , but where the injurer wanted to take advantage of being injured . Reasons to self - wound . Most self - inflicted wounds occur during wartime , for various possible reasons . Potential draftee s may self - injure in order to avoid being drafted for health reasons . The most common reason enlisted soldiers self - wound is to render themselves unable to continue serving in combat , thus resulting in their removal from the combat line to a hospital . Thus , self - injury can be used to avoid a more serious combat injury or a combat death . In prisons and forced labour camps people sometimes self - injure so that they will not be forced to work and could spend some time in the more comfortable conditions of the infirmary barracks . Types of wounds . Among the most common type of wounds are a rifle shot to the hand , arm , leg , or foot . Wounds can also occur by deliberate neglect of health , e . g . by failing to treat a minor wound that will become infected , or " forgetting " foot care in damp conditions that lead to fungal infections . Punishments . In most militaries , deliberately self - inflicted wounds are considered to be a serious military offense . Most self - inflicted wounds go unnoticed , though consequences are often severe if caught . In the British army during World War I , the penalty for self - inflicted wound was capital punishment , which at that time was death by firing squad . In the British Army , some 3 , 894 men were found guilty , though none were executed but instead were sent to prison for lengthy periods . In Nazi concentration camp s , self - injury was dangerous as the incapacitated were often just executed , but in some lower - stringency camps it has indeed been documented . History . There have been many reports of SIW during World War I , placing certain soldiers under suspicion for some injuries which could have been genuine accidents . During World War II , almost all armies ( most often mentioned are the Soviet Army and the Wehrmacht ) had cases of self - inflicted injury .

Some of the aircraft were modernized as the Curtiss JNH and later to the Curtiss JNS ( JN Standard ) with either a 180 hp ( 134 kW ) Wright - Hispano E ( as JNS - E ) or 150 hp ( 112 kW ) Wright - Hispano I engine ( as JNS - I ) .
HMS Hector ( F45 ) HMS " Hector " was an armed merchant cruiser of the Royal Navy . Initially built as a cargo liner , she was requisitioned by the Admiralty during the Second World War . She was sunk in a Japanese air attack in 1942 and was later raised and scrapped . Construction and civilian service . " Hector " was built in the interwar period by Scotts Shipbuilding and Engineering Company , of Greenock , Scotland . She was launched on 18 June 1924 , and delivered to her owners , the Ocean Steamship Co Ltd ( A . Holt & Co ) on 23 September 1924 . The company registered her in Liverpool , and she made her maiden voyage from Liverpool to the Far East on 24 September 1924 . She served with the company for the next 15 years . With the Royal Navy . " Hector " was requisitioned by the Admiralty on 27 August 1939 , and they proceeded to refit her as an armed merchant cruiser . This process was completed on 20 December 1939 . In January 1940 she was assigned to the New Zealand station , where she served until July that year . In August she moved to the East Indies station , where she spent the next two years , until February 1942 . She was then assigned to operate with the Eastern Fleet in March 1942 . She was drydocked in Colombo to prepare for decommissioning . Whilst in harbour with other ships , the port came under attack from Japanese carrier - based aircraft , as part of the Indian Ocean raid . Colombo was targeted on 5 April in the Easter Sunday Raid . The Japanese force , led by Admiral Chuichi Nagumo , had hoped to catch the remnants of the Eastern Fleet in harbour . However , most of the fleet had left several days earlier . Japanese aircraft found only three targets in the harbour , and so proceeded to attack them . The " Hector " was hit by bombs and set on fire . She was abandoned and later sank . The Japanese also sank the destroyer HMS " Tenedos " in the harbour , before locating and sinking the cruiser s and out at sea . The wreck of the " Hector " was nominally returned to the Ocean Steamship Company on 20 April 1942 , but the ongoing war meant that she was not refloated until 1946 . She was then beached five miles north of Colombo for assessment . It was concluded that she was beyond economical repair , and she was sold for scrapping .
