The Japanese 51st Army was demobilized at the surrender of Japan on August 15 , 1945 without having seen combat .
Georgian Land Forces The Georgian Land Forces are the land force component of the Georgian Armed Forces . They are the largest branch of the military and constitute the bulk of the GAF . History and Equipment . After the collapse of the Soviet Union Georgia was left with virtually no military . Alongside the National Guard , Land Forces formed the core of the Georgian army . Most of the infantry brigades were created on the basis of old Soviet formations . Previously , the Soviet Army ' s 31st Army Corps ( the former 9th Army ) was stationed in the former Georgian SSR . In the July 1993 issue of Jane ' s Intelligence Review it was reported that the 31st Army Corps was to leave Kutaisi ( presumably for Russia ) by the end of July 1993 . The 31st Army Corps had at the dissolution of the Soviet Union four divisions , two of which became Russian military bases , part of the Group of Russian Forces of the Transcaucasus . The other two appear to have transitioned into Georgian formations , as Georgian brigades appear in the same locations after the divisions disbanded . The 10th Guards Motor Rifle Division at Akhaltsikhe was replaced eventually by the 22nd Motorised Brigade , and the 152nd Motor Rifle Division at Kutaisi was eventually replaced by the 21st Motorised Brigade . The Georgian army is equipped with a large amount of artillery and air defense systems , including pieces of light , medium , heavy artillery , and numerous rocket launchers . The Georgian military also has up to 220 T - 72 B / Sim1Main Battle Tanks tanks and 50 T - 55 AM support tanks , as well as numerous other armoured fighting vehicles . Gaps in the separate tank battalion are almost completely filled due to weapons trade agreements with Ukraine . Structure . Georgian Land Force is based on brigade size military units . The branch has 5 infantry and 2 artillery brigades and separate from the brigades an Infantry battalion , Engineer battalion , Air - Defense battalion , Signal battalion , Technical Reconnaissance battalion and Medical battalion . Land Forces currently consist of 37 , 000 men , excluding the Reserve Army .
XXIV Corps ( Union Army ) XXIV Corps was a corps of the Union Army during the American Civil War . In December 1864 , the white and black units of the Army of the James were divided into two corps . The black troops were sent to the XXV Corps ; the white troops became the XXIV Corps , under the command of Edward O . Ord . The bulk of corps remained in the Petersburg trenches , but Adelbert Ames ' second division took part in both Benjamin Butler ' s initial unsuccessful assault on Fort Fisher in December 1864 and the successful attack the following January . This division was ultimately absorbed into the revived X Corps in March 1865 . The remainder of the corps served in the Petersburg Campaign . When Ord assumed command of the Army of the James from Butler on January 1 , 1865 , John Gibbon took command of the corps and led it ably . The corps took part in the defeat of Lee at Hatcher ' s Run in February and were involved in the assaults of Fort Gregg and Fort Whitworth during the fall of Petersburg on April 2 . The corps was engaged during the skirmish at Appomattox that occurred just prior to Lee ' s surrender . During the Appomattox campaign , an Independent Division of troops that had served in the Shenandoah Valley was added to the first and third divisions . The corps remained in Virginia until August , when it was disbanded .
Kosmos 1761 Kosmos 1761 ( meaning " Cosmos 1761 " ) is a Soviet US - K missile early warning satellite which was launched in 1986 as part of the Soviet military ' s Oko programme . The satellite is designed to identify missile launches using optical telescopes and infrared sensors . Kosmos 1761 was launched from Site 43 / 4 at Plesetsk Cosmodrome in the Russian SSR . A Molniya - M carrier rocket with a 2BL upper stage was used to perform the launch , which took place at 01 : 16 UTC on 5 July 1986 . The launch successfully placed the satellite into a molniya orbit . It subsequently received its Kosmos designation , and the international designator 1986 - 050A . The United States Space Command assigned it the Satellite Catalog Number 16849 .
Post ship Post ship was a designation used in the Royal Navy during the second half of the 18th century and the Napoleonic Wars to describe a ship of the sixth rate ( see rating system of the Royal Navy ) that was smaller than a frigate ( in practice , carrying fewer than 28 guns ) , but by virtue of being a rated ship ( with at least 20 guns ) , had to have as its captain a post captain rather than a lieutenant or commander . Thus ships with 20 to 26 guns were post ships , though this situation changed after 1817 . Sea officers often referred to the post ships as frigates though technically they were not frigates . The vessels were frigate - built , with traditional quarterdecks and forecastle s , but , unlike true frigates , they lacked an orlop platform amidships . They had a high center of gravity , which made them slow and unweatherly , but they were seaworthy . In peacetime the Royal Navy frequently used them as substitutes for frigates , especially in distant foreign stations . In wartime their slowness meant they were used mostly as convoy escorts . Unlike other uses of the term " ship " during this era , " post ship " in itself implies nothing on the rig of the vessel ; however , all sixth rates were in practice ship - rigged , i . e . were square - rigged on three masts . For an example of a post ship , see HMS " Camilla " . She was one of ten " Sphinx " - class post ships built during the 1770s . The United States Navy termed ships of this type " third - class frigates . "

Douglas XT - 30 The Douglas XT - 30 was a proposed American military advanced trainer . It was never built . Design and development . Intended to replace the North American T - 6 Texan , the XT - 30 was designed in 1948 for a United States Air Force competition . The design had an Wright R - 1300 radial mounted amidships behind the cockpit ( in the fashion of the P - 39 ) , in a rather squared - off fuselage . The R - 1300 drove a three - bladed propeller by way of an extension shaft ( driveshaft ) . The XT - 30 design seated pilot and pupil in tandem , under a framed greenhouse canopy and had a straight low wing . Competing against the North American T - 28 Trojan , the more complex XT - 30 was not selected for production and none were built .
GRAU The Main Missile and Artillery Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation ( GRAU ) ( ) is a department of the Russia n ( ex - Soviet ) Ministry of Defense . It is subordinate to the Chief of Armament and Munition of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation , a vice - minister of defense . The organization dates back to 1862 when it was established under the name Главное артиллерийское управление ( ГАУ - GAU ) . The " R " from " rockets " was added to the title in 1960 . In particular , the GRAU is responsible for assigning GRAU indices to Russian army munitions and equipment . Arsenals of the GRAU , according to Kommersant - Vlast in 2005 , include the 60th at Kaluga , the 55th at Rzhev , the 75th at Serpukhov south of Moscow , ( all three in the Moscow Military District ) and the 80th at Gagarskiy , the 116th at Krasno - Oktyabrskiy and the 5th , all in the Volga - Urals Military District . The current Chief of the GRAU is Colonel General Vladimir N . Zaritskiy . Current GRAU indices . GRAU indices are of the form " < number > < letter > < number > " , with the optional suffix " < letter > < number > " . A specially assigned codename may follow the index . For example : « 2 S 19 " Msta - S " » , the 2S19 Msta self - propelled howitzer . Misconceptions . Several common misconceptions surround the scope and originating body of these indices . The GRAU designation is not an industrial designation , nor is it assigned by the design bureau . In addition to its GRAU designation , a given piece of equipment could have a design name , an industrial name and a service designation . For example , one of the surface - to - air missile s in the S - 25 Berkut air defense system had at least four domestic designations : Some Soviet general - purpose bomb s bore a designation that looked confusingly similar to GRAU . Designation scheme . The first part of a GRAU index is a number indicating which of the several main categories of equipment a given item belongs to . The second part , a Cyrillic character , indicates the subcategory . The third part , a number , indicates the specific model . The optional suffix can be used to differentiate variants of the same model .
Fao Landing The Fao Landing occurred on November 6 , 1914 and the Battle of Fao Fortress on November 8 , 1914 with British forces attacking the Ottoman Fortress of Fao . The British successfully took the fort . Background . When the Ottoman Empire entered into World War I , the British feared for the safety of the Persian Gulf oil facilities . To protect their facilities , the British decided to capture the Ottoman - controlled section of the Persian Gulf coast . The Fortress of Fao was the main Ottoman fortress on the Persian Gulf coast . The British assigned Indian Expeditionary Force D ( IEF D ) which consisted of the 6th ( Poona ) Division led by Lieutenant General Arthur Barrett , with Sir Percy Cox as Political Officer . The Landing . The initial landing force was the 16th Brigade under Brigadier General Delamain . The British troops landed on Fao beach on November 6 , 1914 , and were immediately met with heavy fire from Fao Fortress . As the British advanced towards the fortress , they were met with Ottoman infantry assaults . The British managed to repel the assaults , but could not take the fortress because their heavy artillery had not yet landed . The British then dug trenches around the fortress from which they would occasionally fire shells at the fortress ( as the Ottomans fired back ) . The Battle of Fao Fortress . The British heavy artillery arrived on November 8 and the British immediately began bombarding the Ottoman fort . The artillery breached the walls and the British troops charged into the fortress . After 45 minutes of close quarters combat inside the fortress , the British managed to capture the fort and 300 Ottoman prisoners . The British marched unopposed into the Port of Fao the next day , and the rest of the division soon began landing . Aftermath . With Fao captured , the Ottomans no longer controlled any part of the Persian Gulf , and the British facilities were safe . However , the British felt that their facilities would not be truly safe until they managed to capture Baghdad . This led to several campaigns against Baghdad that would result in the capture of that city by the British in 1917 .
2nd New Hampshire Regiment The 2nd New Hampshire Regiment , also known as the 8th Continental Regiment , was formed in early May 1775 , as the second of three Continental Army regiments raised by the state of New Hampshire during the American Revolutionary War . Its first commander was Colonel Enoch Poor , with Joseph Cilley as major . The 2nd NH would see action at the Battle of Trois - Rivières , Battle of Trenton , Battle of Princeton , Battle of Hubbardton , Battle of Saratoga , Battle of Monmouth , the Sullivan Expedition and the Battle of Yorktown . At Hubbardton Col . Nathan Hale and part of the regiment were captured by the British Army . During the summer of 1783 , the 2nd NH and the 3rd NH were merged into the 1st New Hampshire Regiment and were disbanded on January 1 , 1784 . The 2nd New Hampshire ' s Regimental colours that were captured at Hubbardton and returned to the state of New Hampshire are now housed at the New Hampshire State House in Concord , New Hampshire . It is one of only a few American battle flags from the American Revolution known to still exist . This idea is under some dispute . The colors containing the motto " The Glory Not the Prey . " likely served the New Hampshire Brigade . The other colors captured at the time , the linked 13 rings , were likely divisional colors .

They accomplished their mission so well that not one of the men who dashed the eighty yards from the cavalry encampment to the river was killed .
Cycliadas Cycliadas was an ancient Greek statesman and general . He was the son of Damaretos of Pharae in Achaea . Elected as strategos of the Achaean League in 208 BC , he joined Philip V of Macedon at Dyme with the Achaean forces , and aided him in his invasion of Elis . In 200 BC , Cycliadas being made strategos instead of Philopoemen , the Spartan king Nabis took advantage of the change to make war on the Achaeans . Philip offered to help them , and to carry the war into the enemy ' s country , if they would give him a sufficient number of their soldiers to garrison Chalcis , Oreus and Corinth in the meantime . The Achaeans however mistrusted Philip , and suspected that it was a ploy to obtain hostages from them and so to force them into a war with the Romans . Cycliadas therefore answered , that their laws precluded them from discussing any proposal except that for which the assembly was summoned . In 199 / 8 BC , Cycliadas was expelled as a result of his position as leader of the pro - Macedonian party . In 198 BC we find him an exile at the court of Philip , whom he attended in that year at his conference with Flamininus at Nicaea in Locris . After the Battle of Cynoscephalae in 197 BC , Cycliadas was sent with Demosthenes and Limnaeus as ambassador from Philip to Flamininus , who granted the king a truce of 15 days with a view to the arrangement of a permanent peace .
Paul Pau Paul Marie Cesar Gerald Pau , ( November 29 , 1848 , Montélimar - January 2 , 1932 ) was a French General , a commander of an army at the beginning of World War I . When war broke out in 1914 French commander in chief General Joseph Joffre recalled General Pau from retirement to command the " Army of Alsace " to participate in attacks called for by the doomed French Plan XVII . Although initially successful , Pau was defeated at Morhange - Sarrebourg and when it was clear to Joffre that French hopes for a quick victory in Alsace had faded and that France now faced the real possibility of quick defeat , Pau ' s army was broken up and sent north to join the Sixth Army in time to participate in the First Battle of the Marne . General Pau ' s command barely lasted 2 months . After that he was sent as French representative to the Russian Stavka . Pau also toured Australia in Sept 1918 , meeting Australian Veterans , and War rallies . he was In Toowoomba Qld , Sept 28th 1918 .
Mediterranean Expeditionary Force The Mediterranean Expeditionary Force ( MEF ) was part of the British Army during World War I , that commanded all Allied forces at Gallipoli and Salonika . This included the initial naval operation to force the straits of the Dardanelles . Its headquarters was formed in March 1915 . The MEF was originally commanded by General Sir Ian Hamilton until he was dismissed due to the failure of the 29th Division at Gallipoli . Command briefly passed to General William Birdwood , commander of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps , but for the duration of the Gallipoli campaign it was General Sir Charles Monro who led the MEF . While the Gallipoli theatre was the only active Mediterranean theatre , the MEF was used to refer to the forces at Gallipoli . With the opening of the Salonika front in October 1915 , the forces at Gallipoli were referred to as the Dardanelles Army and the Salonika contingent became the Salonika Army on the Macedonian front ( World War I ) . Once Salonika became the sole Mediterranean theatre the MEF was commanded by General Archibald Murray who was based in Egypt and whose command also involved defence of the Suez Canal from Turkish attacks . As the importance of the Sinai front grew , a separate headquarters called the Egyptian Expeditionary Force was formed ( in March 1916 ) . Supposedly when the British Secretary of State for War , Lord Kitchener , was preparing the Mediterranean expedition he intended to name the headquarters the Constantinople Expeditionary Force but Hamilton suggested this might be a bit of a giveaway .
