Encamping on the banks of the Atbara river by March 20 , Mahmud , with Osman Digna ' s group of Dervish warriors were within of the British camp outpost at Fort Atbara at the confluence of the Atbara with the Nile . On April 4 , after seeing that the Mahdists were unwilling to attack , Kitchener quietly advanced with the British and Egyptian army towards the Mahdist fortified camp just outside the town of Nakheila . The British attack began at 06 : 20 on April 8 , 1898 ; two brigades , the British Brigade led by William Gatacre , and the Egyptian Brigade led by Archibald Hunter , led the attack . After a brief artillery bombardment of the Mahdist camp , the combined British and Egyptian brigades attacked . Soon , the British and Egyptian troops were in the Mahdist camp , often fighting hand - to - hand with the Mahdist warriors . After 45 minutes , the battle was over as Osman Digna led a few thousand warriors on a retreat to the south , while most of the remainder were killed or captured , including Mahmud who was captured by loyal Sudanese troops of the Egyptian Brigade .

Canadian Air Force ( 1920 – 24 ) The Canadian Air Force ( CAF ) which was formed on 17 May 1920 , was one of Canada ' s early attempts at forming an air force . When the Air Board was formed in 1919 to manage Canadian aviation , one of its responsibilities was air defence ; the CAF was formed to meet this responsibility . The CAF would exist until 1924 when the prefix " Royal " was added , and the Royal Canadian Air Force ( RCAF ) was officially created . History . Prior to 1920 , Canadian airmen flew with the Royal Flying Corps and the Royal Naval Air Service . Canada had tried to implement two other relatively independent " air forces " before 1920 . The Canadian Aviation Corps , consisting of one aircraft , was formed in 1914 to provide service in Europe during the First World War . In 1918 , a contingent of two squadrons known as the Canadian Air Force was formed as another attempt to provide a Canadian military aviation presence in Europe during the First World War . The first Air Officer Commanding of the Canadian Air Force was Arthur Kellam Tylee with the formation authorised an initial provisional strength of one Wing Commander , one Flight Lieutenant , one Warrant Officer , one Flight Sergeant and one Sergeant . In June 1920 the provisional strength of 1 . 340 officers and 3905 airmen ( non commissioned officers and other ranks ) was authorised . This new CAF began as a small non - permanent air militia managed by the Air Board . Its purpose was to give refresher flying courses to veterans and operated at Camp Borden . The training scheme was short - lived , however , and training was stopped in 1922 . When the Air Board was absorbed into the Department of National Defence in 1922 , along with the Department of Militia and Defence and the Department of Naval Service , the CAF became responsible for all flying operations in Canada , including civil aviation . In 1922 , the CAF ' s Inspector - General Sir Willoughby Gwatkin began advocating for the " Royal " prefix . In 1923 , after the CAF was reorganized when the Department of National Defence was formed , formal application was made and the title was granted in February 1923 . The Canadian government finally approved of the title thirteen months later , and on April 1 , 1924 , The Royal Canadian Air Force became official . Uniform . The original uniform was a dark blue serge cut in Army style with white shirts worn by officers . Army metal rank insignia and chevrons were worn but used Royal Air Force titles . Heads of the Canadian Air Force . The following officers served as heads of the Canadian Air Force from 1920 to 1924 :
William Brown ( sailor ) William Brown ( birth name unknown ) was a Black woman who joined the Royal Navy as a man . One story is that Brown was born in Edinburgh , joined in 1804 and served at least until at least 1816 , even after Brown ' s birth sex was discovered in 1815 . More probably she was from Grenada and only served for a month before discovery . The " Annual Register " of September 1815 reported : This is not borne out by the " Queen Charlotte ' s " muster lists . When the crew were paid off in August 1815 , the only William Brown on the list was a 32 year old Scot who had transferred from the " Cumberland " a month earlier . The list " does " show though that a 21 - year old William Brown had joined the crew from Grenada on 23 May 1815 as a ' landsman ' ( the least experienced rating ) , and was discharged a month later for ' being a female ' . There is no record of any William Brown being appointed Captain of the fore - top for the " Queen Charlotte " . However , this still makes Brown the first known black , biologically female individual to serve in the Royal Navy .
Frederick Head Frederick Waldegrave Head MC & Bar ( 18 April 1874 – 18 December 1941 ) was Anglican archbishop of Melbourne , Australia . Head was born in Tollington Park , London , the son of the Rev . Canon George Frederick Head and his wife Mary Henrietta , " née " Bolton . Educated at Alton School , Plymouth , Windlesham House , Brighton , Repton School and Emmanuel College , Cambridge , Head graduated B . A . with first class honours in history in 1896 , M . A . in 1900 , and B . D . in 1929 . Head was ordained deacon in 1902 and priest in 1903 , was dean and tutor of Emmanuel College 1903 - 7 , and senior tutor and chaplain of Emmanuel College from 1907 to 1921 . During World War I he was senior chaplain to the guards division and was awarded the military cross with bar . He was vicar of Christ Church , East Greenwich from 1922 to 1926 , chaplain to King George V from 1922 to 1929 , and canon and sub - dean of Liverpool Cathedral from 1926 to 1929 . In September 1929 he accepted the archbishopric of Melbourne , was consecrated in Westminster Abbey on 1 November 1929 , and enthroned in St Paul ' s Cathedral , Melbourne on 23 December 1929 . In Melbourne , Head soon made himself acquainted with the various parishes and clergy . He found a diocese that already had many commitments in connexion with church schools and social work , and the financial depression which began just about the time of his arrival made a strong forward policy inopportune . He interested himself in the question of the re - union of the Christian churches , and in the holding together of his own diocese by preaching peace and goodwill to all , and setting a personal example of plain living and high thinking . At one period he voluntarily gave up a quarter of his stipend , and refused to countenance any expenditure which might lighten his own burden of work . If it was possible to help a parish by attending some function or service he made it his duty to be there , and his relations with his clergy were of the friendliest . From 1933 he was chaplain general to the Commonwealth military forces . Tactful , unassuming , and modest , scholarly and hard - working , much interested in social questions , Head was a steady influence for good in Melbourne . On 7 December 1941 he was driving his car to a confirmation service and ran into a post ; he died from his injuries on 18 December 1941 . His ashes are interred in St Paul ' s Cathedral , Melbourne . He married in 1904 Edith Mary Colman , who survived him with one son . Head was the author of " The Fallen Stuarts " , published in 1901 , and " Six Great Anglicans " , which appeared in 1929 .

Diopeithes Diopeithes ( in Greek Διoπείθης ; lived during the 4th century BC ) was an Athenian general , probably father of the poet Menander , who was sent out to the Thracian Chersonese about 343 BC , at the head of a body of Athenian settlers or κληρoυχoι . Disputes having arisen about their boundaries between these settlers and the Cardians , the latter were supported , but not with arms in the first instance , by king Philip II of Macedon ( 359 - 336 BC ) , who , when the Athenians remonstrated , proposed that their quarrel with Cardia should be referred to arbitration . This proposal being indignantly rejected , Philip sent troops to the assistance of the Cardians , and Diopeithes retaliated by ravaging the maritime district of Thrace , which was subject to the Macedonians , while Philip was absent in the interior of the same country on his expedition against Teres and Cersobleptes . Philip sent a letter of remonstrance to Athens , and Diopeithes was arraigned by the Macedonian party , not only for his aggression on the king ' s territory , but also for the means to which he resorted for the support of his mercenaries . He was defended by Demosthenes in the oration , still extant , " On the Chersonese " , 341 BC , and the defence was successful , for he was permitted to retain his command . After this , and probably during the war of Philip with Byzantium ( 340 BC ) , Diopeithes again invaded the Macedonian territory in Thrace , took the towns of Crobyle and Tiristasis and enslaved the inhabitants , and when an ambassador , named Amphilochus , came to negotiate for the release of the prisoners , he seized his person in defiance of all international law , and compelled him to pay nine talent s for his ransom . The enmity of Diopeithes to Philip appears to have recommended him to the favour of the king of Persia Artaxerxes III , who , as we learn from Aristotle , sent him some valuable presents , which arrived just prior to his death .
Green Cheese ( missile ) The Green Cheese missile was a British radar - guided anti - ship tactical nuclear warhead missile project of the 1950s . It was developed by Fairey Aviation to be used by the Fairey Gannet shipborne anti - submarine warfare aircraft , and was originally called Fairey Project 7 . Unfortunately , the missile ' s 3 , 800 lb ( 1720 kg ) weight proved to be too heavy for the Gannet , and would have required modifications to the Gannet ' s bomb bay to expose the missiles ' seeker heads to the target before launch . The missile project continued , since the Blackburn Buccaneer naval strike aircraft had a rotating bomb bay which was ideally suited to the task . The project was cancelled in 1956 due in part to cost over - runs , at which point it had a reached a stage called Cockburn Cheese ( after the British military scientist Dr . Robert Cockburn ) , and was replaced with the Green Flash project . This too was cancelled and the idea of a tactical nuclear guided missile for anti - shipping use was given up in favour of a simple " lobbed " tactical nuclear bomb . The name was randomly generated as one of the UK ' s Rainbow Codes .
