It was used in the Type A Nambu , Type 14 Nambu and Type 94 pistols , Tokyo Arsenal Model 1927 , Type II machine pistol , Hino Komuro M1908 Pistol and the Type 100 submachine gun . It uses 8 . 2 mm ( . 320 " ) bullets . Power is relatively low , with military loads developing about 280 J ( 200 foot · pounds ) , comparable to the American . 380 ACP and substantially weaker than contemporary military cartridges such as 9×19mm Parabellum , . 45 ACP , and 7 . 62×25mm Tokarev . As per the fate of almost all contemporary Imperial Japanese weapon designs , the 8 mm Nambu production ceased after the end of World War II , as the weapons that fired it were removed from service . While some small - scale production ( primarily using remanufactured brass ) has occurred in the United States , handloading is common among owners of 8 mm Nambu pistols . New manufactured brass and copper plated lead bullets ( . 32o " ) are now available through HDS . The Japanese Army cartridges in 8 mm Nambu have no markings on the headstamp unlike the Japanese Navy cartridges .

Second Battle of Memphis The Second Battle of Memphis was a battle of the American Civil War occurring on August 21 , 1864 , in Shelby County , Tennessee . At 4 : 00 a . m . on August 21 , 1864 , Maj . Gen . Nathan Bedford Forrest made a daring raid on Union - held Memphis , Tennessee , but it was not an attempt to capture the city , which was occupied by 6 , 000 Federal troops . The raid had three objectives : to capture three Union generals posted there ; to release Southern prisoners from Irving Block Prison ; and to cause the recall of Union forces from Northern Mississippi . Striking northwestward for Memphis with 2 , 000 cavalry , Forrest lost about a quarter of his strength because of exhausted horses . Surprise was essential . Taking advantage of a thick dawn fog and claiming to be a Union patrol returning with prisoners , the Confederates eliminated the sentries . Galloping through the streets and exchanging shots with other Union troops , the raiders split to pursue separate missions . One union general was not at his quarters . Another , General Cadwallader C . Washburn escaped to Fort Pickering dressed in his night - shirt . Forrest took Washburn ' s uniform , but later returned it under a flag of truce . According to Memphis legend , Confederate cavalrymen rode into the lobby of the luxurious Gayoso House Hotel seeking the Yankee officers . A street in Memphis is named " General Washburn ' s Escape Alley " in commemoration of the ordeal . The attack on Irving Block Prison also failed when Union troops stalled the main body at the State Female College . After two hours , Forrest decided to withdraw , cutting telegraph wires , taking 500 prisoners and large quantities of supplies , including many horses . Although Forrest failed in Memphis , his raid influenced Union forces to return there , from northern Mississippi , and provide protection . Union General Hurlbut was quoted afterward as saying , " There it goes again ! They superseded me with Washburn because I could not keep Forrest out of West Tennessee , and Washburn cannot keep him out of his own bedroom ! "

Yuri Shvets Yuri B . Shvets ( born 1952 ) was a Major in the KGB during the years 1980 - 1990 . From April 1985 to 1987 he worked in the Washington Rezidentura of the KGB . He graduated in International Law from the Peoples ' Friendship University of Russia when it was still named the Patrice Lumumba Peoples ' Friendship University . Shvets recruited two key sources of political intelligence whom he referred to as Sputnitsa and Socrates . Sputnisa is identified as a journalist working in Washington , and Socrates as a former Carter administration aide with strong ties to Greece . In his 2005 book " Spy Handler : Memoir of a KGB Officer " , Victor Cherkashin alleges that " Socrates " was John Helmer and Sputnitsa the late New Statesman journalist Claudia Wright . However , Cherkashin also claims that contrary to Shvets ' assertions , Helmer was " never an agent or even a target " of the KGB . After publishing a book describing his exploits and ultimate falling out with the KGB , Shvets was banned from foreign travel . In 1994 , he secretly made his way to America where he now resides . In 2006 , Shvets emerged as a potentially key witness in the poisoning of ex - FSB officer Alexander Litvinenko . In an interview with the BBC , broadcast on 16 December 2006 , Shvets said that he and Litvinenko had compiled a report investigating tha activities of senior Kremlin officials on behalf of a British company looking to invest " dozens of millions of dollars " in a project in Russia . Shvets said the dossier was so incriminating about one senior Kremlin official , who was not named , it was likely that Litvinenko was murdered in revenge . He alleged that Litvinenko had shown the dossier to another business associate , Andrei Lugovoi , who had worked for the KGB and later the FSB . Shvets alleged that Lugovoi was still an FSB informant and he had passed the dossier to members of the spy service . Shvets says he was interviewed about his allegations by Scotland Yard detectives investigating Litvinenko ' s murder .
Fort Anderson ( North Carolina ) Fort Anderson was an early fort in the lower Cape Fear Region of North Carolina , at Brunswick Town in Brunswick County . It was used as a Confederate Fort during the American Civil War . The fort was pivotal in protecting the Cape Fear River inlets and Wilmington upstream . Earthen batteries comprise the fort and were used as platforms and shields for the Confederate cannons . Beneath some of the earthworks were " bombproofs , " shelters used by troops during enemy bombardment . The Confederacy decided to build forts around the Cape Fear River to protect the port of Wilmington from the Union blockade . During the Civil War , blockade runners brought supplies such as iron , guns , and ammunition to the Confederacy . The purpose of the fort was to hinder movement of Union ships , and to serve as a dropping off point for blockade runners fortunate enough to make it up the mouth of the Cape Fear River . Fort Anderson was built on the ruins of Brunswick Town and was originally named Fort St . Philip , after the ruins of the Revolutionary period church nearby . The name was changed to honor Col . George B . Anderson . Excavation . Lawrence Lee was the first to begin exploring and researching the land in 1951 where Brunswick Town and Fort Anderson once stood . He realized how historically valuable the land was . Because of him , the site was named a historic site . The family that owned Orton Plantation sold a majority of the land to the State Department of Archives and History for one dollar and the Episcopal Diocese of East Carolina sold the land they owned for one dollar too . Seven years later , he directed the recovery of the site . From the excavation , many things were revealed . For example : Brunswick Town ’ s streets and the foundations of houses . In 1958 , Stanly South , a professional archaeologist , came to the site to work . Through the years , he and his team found artifacts , foundations of old structures , and around sixty archeological features . In April 1967 , the visitor center opened . Its purpose was to inform everyone on the history of Brunswick Town and Fort Anderson . Excavation was halted in 1968 due to North Carolina ’ s Department of Cultural Resources stopping excavation in all state - owned parks . It was because of money issues that this occurred . This is still a problem even today . Excavations today . Under the supervision of Professor Tom Beaman excavations have begun of the civil war barracks of the site . Peace college field school has helped excavated as well as the students of Summer Ventures , Wake Technical College , UNCW and many other volunteers . Ground breaking artifacts are still being found and Fort Anderson will continued to be excavated in the future . Historic site . The state of North Carolina maintains and operates the area as Brunswick Town / Fort Anderson State Historic Site . The visitor center features displays and an audiovisual program about both the colonial port Brunswick Town and the Civil War period Fort Anderson . Outdoor trails lead past exhibits and the excavated ruins of the fort and town .

Abed Hamed Mowhoush Abed Hamed Mowhoush ( Arabic " عبد حامد موحوش " ) was a major general / air vice - marshal believed to be in command of the Iraqi Air Force or Iraqi air defence during the regime of Saddam Hussein immediately prior to the 2003 Invasion of Iraq , until his surrender to United States forces on 10 November 2003 . He died on 26 November 2003 while in U . S . custody at the Al - Qaim detention facility approximately northwest of Baghdad , following a 16 - day period of detention that included intense beatings and the use of violent and illegal torture . U . S . forces initially claimed that Mowhoush had been captured during a raid and that he had died of natural causes ( disease ) , but " The Washington Post " later reported that he had given himself up in an effort to secure the release of his sons . Four U . S . servicemen were arrested in October 2004 in connection with the killing . Controversy over U . S . claims . The circumstances of Mowhoush ' s " capture " , detention and death appear to have been the subject of a campaign of misinformation by U . S . military authorities , who retracted or amended several of their initial claims . According to the " Washington Post " : Investigation , arrests and trial . Mowhoush died while being interrogated by two soldiers associated with the 66th Military Intelligence Brigade . At first the official military report stated that " Mowhoush said he didn ' t feel well and subsequently lost consciousness " . However , when the Abu Ghraib torture and prisoner abuse scandal erupted , the Pentagon acknowledged that the autopsy report indicated that the cause of death was " asphyxia due to smothering and chest compression " , and that his body showed " evidence of blunt force trauma to the chest and legs " . The Pentagon added that a homicide investigation was underway . In October 2004 , four arrests were made in connection with Mowhoush ' s death : Chief Warrant Officer Lewis E . Welshofer Jr . , and Chief Warrant Officer Jeff L . Williams , who were the two soldiers conducting the interrogation , and Sergeant First Class William J . Sommer and Specialist Jerry L . Loper from the 3d Armored Cavalry Regiment , who were assigned to the detention facility at the time of the interrogation , and who also faced dereliction of duty charges . According to the " Washington Post " : The delay in the arrest of the accused was reportedly a result of their commanding officer , Colonel David Teeples , being reluctant to pursue charges and preferring a simple reprimand . It was not until the " Denver Post " ran a series of articles exposing the lenient treatment of the accused that military lawyers commenced prosecution proceedings under military law . Documents revealed during these proceedings confirmed that Mowhoush was physically abused and met his death at the hands of military interrogators : Punishment . On January 21 , 2006 , an American military jury convicted Welshofer of negligent homicide in the death of Mowhoush . A military jury ordered a reprimand and forfeiture of $ 6 , 000 in pay , and restricted him to his home , office and church for two months .
