Battle of Nowy Dwór Mazowiecki The Battle of Nowy Dwór was fought during September 20 - September 30 , 1655 between forces of the Polish - Lithuanian Commonwealth commanded by Jan Kazimierz Krasiński on one side , and on the other Swedish Empire forces commanded by Gustaf Otto Stenbock . It ended in Swedish victory . Background . On September 8 , 1655 , Swedish forces under King Charles X Gustav entered Warsaw , which had been abandoned by Jan Kazimierz on August 18 . At the same time , in the village of Mogilno near Zakroczym , Mazovia n levee en masse gathered to fight the invaders . It was commanded by Voivode of Plock , Jan Kazimierz Krasinski . Swedish forces , including such units , as Jämtlands fältjägarregemente and Norrlands dragonregemente , sent from Warsaw to face the Poles , decided to cross the Narew near Nowy Dwor Mazowiecki . The Battle . On September 21 , the Swedes approached Nowy Dwor . Polish camp was located on a 30 - meter hill , located at the confluence of the Vistula and Bugonarew . Swedish troops quickly captured Nowy Dwor and began construction of a bridge . Their commandant , Gustaf Otto Stenbock was well aware of the fact that in previous battles , the Polish szlachta of the levee en masse had capitulated to the Swedes without fighting . Therefore , on September 28 , Stenbock urged the Poles to capitulate , but their offer was rejected . An exchange of fire began , in which Swedish artillery had an advantage . Covered by the cannons , Swedish reiter s crossed the Narew , finishing construction of the bridge , and digging trenches , which protected the river crossing . In the morning of September 30 , Stenbock ’ s army crossed the river and attacked Polish positions . The battle took place in the area where now the district of Modlin is located . Swedish fire forced the Masurians to withdraw north . Mobility of Polish units prevented them from complete destruction , as the Swedes were too slow to chase them . Polish losses amounted to some 300 killed . On the next day the Poles counterattacked , but without success . Swedish advance continued , and the invaders captured Pultusk . Aftermath . Swedish victory opened the road towards the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and Livonia , while Swedish engineers noticed strategic importance of the location of the battle . In the following months , they constructed here a permanent fortified position , the so - called Bugskansen . This star - shaped military camp was main supply depot and concentration point of the Swedish - Brandenburgian army during the Battle of Warsaw . In the early 19th century , the Modlin Fortress was built in the location of the Bugskansen .

USS City of Corpus Christi ( SSN - 705 ) USS " City Of Corpus Christi " ( SSN - 705 ) , a " Los Angeles " - class submarine , was the second ship of the United States Navy to be named for Corpus Christi , Texas . The Navy originally planned to use the name " USS Corpus Christi . " The " City of " prefix was added prior to the 1983 commissioning to clarify that the ship is meant to honor the city , in response to Catholic politicians who protested naming a warship using Latin words which translate to " body of Christ . " The contract to build her was awarded to the Electric Boat Division of General Dynamics Corporation in Groton , Connecticut on 31 October 1973 and her keel was laid down on 4 September 1979 . She was launched on 25 April 1981 sponsored by Mrs . John Tower , and commissioned on 8 January 1983 with Commander W . G . " Jerry " Ellis in command . The ship is currently homeported in Pearl Harbor , HI , moving there in May 2011 after being previously forward deployed to Apra Harbor , Guam . The ship ' s patch was chosen by the crew based on entries to an art contest sponsored by the Corpus Christi , TX city government .

CANT Z . 1011 The twin - engined CANT Z . 1011 was one of two bomber s of about the same size and powered by the same engines , designed by Filippo Zappata in the mid - 1930s . The other was the three - engined CANT Z . 1007 , which in the end was the type preferred by the Regia Aeronautica . Design and development . The CANT Z . 1011 was a low wing cantilever monoplane with a wooden structure . The wings had three wooden spars , spruce and plywood ribs and plywood covering . The whole trailing edge was occupied by ailerons and inboard flaps . The fuselage was flat sided with plywood covering . The tailplane , placed on top of the fuselage , was braced to it with pairs of parallel struts and carried twin fins and rudders . The fins were braced to the tailplane by further pairs of struts on their inner sides . The fixed tail surfaces were again plywood covered but the control surfaces were covered in fabric . The engines were conventionally wing mounted and the main legs and wheels of the tailwheel undercarriage retracted rearwards into cowling extensions behind them . Mainwheels were fitted with brakes . The enclosed pilots ' compartment was over the leading edge of the wing , with a bomb - aimer ' s position in the nose . There were dorsal and ventral gunner ' s positions respectively over and aft of the wing , each equipped with twin machine guns . The Z . 1011 made its first flight on 2 March 1936 powered by 710 kW ( 950 hp ) Gnome - Rhône Mistral Major RC radial engines , but these were soon replaced with 610 kW ( 820 hp ) V - 12 Isotta - Fraschini Asso XI . RC s . Five Z . 1011 prototypes were built before the Regia Aeronautica chose to order the three - engined Z . 1007 . After that decision the Z . 1011 was used as a transport .
USS Lannai ( SP - 242 ) USS " Lannai " ( SP - 242 ) was a motorboat which the United States Navy at least considered for service — and may have placed in service — during World War I as a patrol vessel . " Lannai " received section patrol number 242 , indicating that she was a privately owned motorboat which the U . S . Navy sometime between 1916 and 1918 at least considered for World War I service as a patrol vessel . No records have been found describing " Lannai " s construction , acquisition , naval service ( if any ) , or physical characteristics and performance ; her records may have been lost or destroyed . She may have seen active naval service , although some boats which received section patrol numbers were never commissioned or , in some cases , never even acquired by the Navy , so it also is possible that the lack of records reflects a lack of naval service for " Lannai " .

Timariot A timariot ( or " tımar " holder ; " tımarlı " in Turkish ) was another name given to the Timarli Sipahi cavalry that served the Ottoman sultan and in return was granted a fief called a " timar " . The timariots had to assemble with the army when at war , and had to take care of the land entrusted to him in times of peace . When at war , the timariot had to bring his own equipment and in addition a number of armed retainers ( " cebelu " ) . Food was supplied during campaign . In this way , the Ottomans could quickly muster a large army . When the war was over the warriors returned to their lands , and in that way the sultan did not have to support them when he didn ' t need them . In addition , the sultan ' s lands were taken care of . Local peasants were subjects to the timariot . Law and order was kept , taxes were collected and bandits were brought to justice . The system of timars was organized during the reign of Orhan I ( 1326 – 1359 ) . The Sultan granted officers fiefs with local peasants subjected to their rule in an arrangement similar to European feudal fiefs . They were an important part of the Ottoman army , especially for being so easily supportable , and kept that status until the early 17th century . The titles and lands of the timar holders remained in use much longer than that . When on campaign , the timariots were organized into regiments called " alay " s that were commanded by " alay bey " s ( or " beg " ) . Larger units were the " sanjak " ( or " sancak " ) regiments or " liva " s ( standard , banner ) , commanded by " sanjak bey " s . At the top were the province governors , the " beylerbey " s . A province in the 16th century could muster some thousand timariots , according to the size of the province . In 1525 the total number of timar holders were 37 , 818 men , according to the tax rolls . The number of armed retainers was estimated to 50 , 000 men . Of course , these great numbers were spread out all over the empire , and could not possibly serve in one campaign at a time .

Cape Cod System The Cape Cod System was a computer system designed to simulate an air defense system covering southern New England . It was named after Cape Cod , the location of many of the radars . History . The Cape Cod System was designed to demonstrate a computerized air defense system , covering southern New England . Signals from three long range ( AN / FPS - 3 ) radars , eleven gap - filler radars , and three height - finding radars were converted from analog to digital format and transmitted over telephone line s to the Whirlwind I computer in Cambridge , Massachusetts . The first tests of the Cape Cod System , beginning in September 1953 , used only simulated data , but later tests used U . S . Air Force B - 47 Stratojet bombers as stand - ins for Soviet bombers , and real interceptors scrambled from four Air Force bases . The Cape Cod System verified that the new core - based machine was fast enough for use in SAGE , and an industrial effort was started in order to mass - produce the AN / FSQ - 7 computers for this role . RCA was a front - runner , but IBM was eventually selected instead . They started production in 1957 , along with a massive construction project to erect the buildings , power and communications network needed to feed the SAGE systems with data .
