Jan Matthys Jan Matthys ( also known as " Jan Matthias " , " Johann Mathyszoon " , " Jan Mattijs " , " Jan Matthijszoon " ; c . 1500 , Haarlem – 5 April 1534 , Münster ) was a charismatic Anabaptist leader , regarded by his followers as a prophet . Matthys was a baker in Haarlem , and was converted to Anabaptism through the ministry of Melchior Hoffman in the 1520s . Matthys baptized thousands of converts , and after Hoffman ' s imprisonment , rose to prominent leadership among the Anabaptists . Matthys rejected the pacifism and non - violence theology of Hoffman , adopting a view that oppression must be met with resistance . In 1534 , Anabaptists took control of the German town of Münster . John of Leiden , a Dutch Anabaptist disciple of Matthys , and a group of local merchants , summoned Jan Matthys to come . Matthys identified Münster as the " New Jerusalem " , and on January 5 , 1534 , a number of his disciples entered the city and introduced adult baptism . Reformer Bernhard Rothmann apparently accepted " rebaptism " that day , and well over 1000 adults were soon baptized . They declared war on Franz von Waldeck , its expelled bishop , who in turn besieged their fortified town . In April 1534 on Easter Sunday , Matthys , who had prophesied God ' s judgment to come on the wicked on that day , made a sally forth with thirty followers , under the idea that he was a second Gideon , and was cut off with his entire band . He was killed , his head severed and placed on a pole for all in the city to see .

Capture of Orizaba The Capture of Orizaba was a battle of the War of Mexican Independence that occurred on 28 October 1812 at Orizaba , Veracruz . The battle was fought between the royalist forces loyal to the Spanish crown , commanded by General José Antonio Andrade , and the Mexican rebels fighting for independence from the Spanish Empire , commanded by José María Morelos y Pavón . The battle resulted in a victory for the Mexican rebels . Context . José María Morelos had by this time in the war , made it his goal to conquer the mountainous region of south east Mexico . This was made difficult because such a conquest also involved taking the more heavily defended Spanish cities of Acapulco and Oaxaca . To accomplish his objectives , he moved to cut off communications between Mexico City and the port at Veracruz . To accomplish this , Morelos had to occupy the city of Puebla or Orizaba as both these cities fell between these objectives . While based in Tehuacán , Morelos reviewed the defenses at Orizaba and decided that its capture would be the most strategically viable of the two . He decided on Orizaba also in part because of the large sums of money and property in the city belonging to the Viceroyalty of New Spain . Morelos marched from Tehuacán on 25 October with his army which was made up of around 10 , 000 soldiers . The column reached Orizaba on 28 October 1812 . The city was defended by a garrison of around 600 Spanish loyalists commanded by Colonel José Antonio Andrade . In an effort to avoid a battle with such lopsided odds , Morelos sent a representative to discuss terms of surrender with the defending Spanish garrison who promptly refused his offer . The Battle . After the rejection of his offer of surrender , the insurgent forces advanced upon the city until arriving at the city Bartizan where Colonel Andrande had made his defensive stand . The rebel forces were there met with a strong barrage of artillery and musket fire causing relatively high casualties . Morelos retreated from his initial attack and again gathered his forces together while he waited for his soldiers from Santa Catarina and San Cristóbal to get into their strategic positions of attack . Morelos ordered General Hermenegildo Galeana to commence a frontal attack on the city . Morelos took direct command of the Santa Catarina column with which he was able to successfully take the Cerro del Borrego , one of the high ground areas surrounding the city . From this cerro , he commenced an artillery barrage of the city plaza . The loyalist colonel , José Antonio Andrade , caught in the crossfire between Galeana and Morelos , retreated from the city around 11 : 00 am when Morelos was finally able to enter in the wake of the Spanish .
Anastasios Papoulas Anastasios Papoulas ( , 1859 – March 1935 ) was a Greek general and commander - in - chief during the Greco - Turkish War of 1919 - 1922 . Life . Born in Missolonghi in 1859 , Anastasios Papoulas entered politics in his early twenties eventually becoming a close friend and confidant of King Constantine . He was appointed commander of Greek forces ( the Army of Asia Minor ) in Anatolia by Constantine in late 1920 . However , his offensive to establish Greek control over western Anatolia stopped after the First Battle of İnönü in January 1921 . After being reinforced , Papoulas resumed his offensive on March 23 , however his army , numbering 100 , 000 men , were again defeated at the Second Battle of İnönü on March 28 – 30 . Relieved of command by Constantine , Papoulas continued to command forces at the Battle of Afyonkarahisar - Eskişehir ( August 16 – 17 ) and Sakarya ( August 24 - September 16 ) before taking command of retreating Greek forces from Afyonkarahisar from late August to September 9 , narrowly preventing a rout by the Turkish army . Following the end of the war in 1922 , Papoulas became a strong opponent of the monarchy after the establishment of the Second Hellenic Republic as a supporter of the Venizelos government during the late 1920s and the early 1930s . As one of the leaders of a pro - Venizelos coup attempt in March 1935 , his failure resulted in his capture and eventual execution for treason later that year in Athens .
27th Panzer Division ( Wehrmacht ) The 27th Panzer Division began forming in the southern sector of the Eastern Front in late 1942 , but was never completed due to the loss of its assets during the Soviet counteroffensives around Stalingrad , and no further attempts were made to reconstitute the division . History . During summer - autumn 1942 , part of the division was formed in France ; this included the artillery regiment . Meanwhile , in the Eastern Front , the Brigade Michalic ( led by Colonel Helmut Michalik ) was formed around the 140th Panzer Grenadier Regiment ( which was previously part of 22nd Panzer Division ) . In Autumn 1942 the two echelons joined in Voronezh , situated then in the rear area of the German 2nd Army , and the division was formally activated on 1 October 1942 . With about 3 , 000 men its strength was well under that required for a Panzer Division ; however the situation required that it had to be scattered in several groups to support different sectors of the Eastern Front : Don , south of Kharkov , Hungarian 2nd Army , Italian 8th Army . Twenty tanks were incorporated to the German 2nd Army Headquarters . The 127th Pz . Eng . Batt . never joined the rest of the Division , as it was one of the units encircled at Stalingrad , where it was destroyed . This activity took a heavy toll on the division ' s strength : by 1 January 1943 , it had only half of its panzergrenadiers and 11 tanks ; and the estimated total strength by 8 February was less than 1 , 600 men . Once the Soviet winter offensive was stopped , the 27th Panzer was disbanded around 3 March 1943 . The survivors of the 127th Panzer and Panzer Signals Battalions were assigned to the 24th Panzer Division in France , while the remainder men and materiel were incorporated into the 7th Panzer Division in Russia .
