Second Lieutenant George N . Bascom led a group of men of the U . S . Seventh Infantry after Cochise but was soon captured and taken prisoner along with 60 other soldiers prompting a rescue mission by the army . February 13 , 1861 . In response to the capture of Bascom and his men , Irwin set out on a rescue mission with 14 men . He was able to catch up with the Apaches at Apache Pass in present day Arizona . He strategically placed his small unit around Cochise and his men , tricking the Apache leader into thinking that Irwin had a much larger army with him . The Apaches fled and Bascom and his men were saved . Bascom and his men joined Irwin and together they were able to track Cochise into the mountains and rescued the young boy that Cochise had captured previously . The Medal of Honor .

Baduarius ( Scythia ) Baduarius was a Byzantine general , active early in the reign of Justinian I ( r . 527 – 565 ) in Scythia Minor . Patrick Amory considers the name Baduarius to be Germanic in origin . Baduarius is mentioned in the writings of John Malalas , John of Nikiû , Theophanes the Confessor and Georgios Kedrenos . He is recorded in Greek as " " stratelates " of Scythia " , hence probably a " magister militum " . In 528 , Baduarius and Godilas led a military expedition from Odessus ( modern Varna ) against the Huns of Crimea . Under their leader Mougel , the Huns had reportedly captured Byzantine areas on the coasts of the Black Sea . Also in 528 , Baduarius is mentioned as " Dux Scythiae " . He and Justin , " Dux " of Moesia Secunda , joined their forces in battle against a force of foreign invaders . Malalas reports " the Huns " , whom Theophanes identifies as Bulgars , invading Scythia and Moesia . Either way , the battle went poorly for the Byzantines . Justin was killed and the invaders next entered Thrace . Justin was replaced by Constantiolus . While operations against the invaders continued , Baduarius is not mentioned taking part in them . With later battles taking place at some distance from Scythia Minor , he might have nothing to do with them . His eventual fate is unknown . A younger Baduarius turns up in the reign of Justin II ( r . 565 – 578 ) . The " Prosopography of the Later Roman Empire " considers it likely the younger man could be a son or grandson of the " stratelates " of Scythia .
Donald Cunnell Donald Charles Cunnell ( December 1893 – 12 July 1917 ) was a British World War I flying ace who was killed in action over Belgium . He is known for having shot down and wounded the Red Baron , Manfred von Richthofen . Early life . Cunnell was born in December 1893 at Norwich , Norfolk , England , the son of Charles Donald Cunnell and educated at Gresham ' s School , Holt . Career . Cunnell was commissioned into the Hampshire Regiment in 1914 . He learnt to fly and transferred to the Royal Flying Corps in 1915 . He saw active service on the Western Front , including his service as a fighter pilot , from the early weeks of World War I until his death . As a flight commander with No 20 Squadron in 1917 , Cunnell claimed nine victories ( five claimed destroyed , four " out of control " ) flying Royal Aircraft Factory FE2ds . On 6 July 1917 , Cunnell , flying with Second Lieutenant Albert Edward Woodbridge in an FE2d of 20 Squadron was part of a patrol of six aircraft when attacked by a flight of German Albatros D . V s including one flown by Manfred von Richthofen . During the clash Richthofen was wounded in the head and forced to land near Wervicq . The victory was credited to the crew of Cunnell ' s A6412 . It is often falsely stated that this was the only time Manfred von Richthofen was shot down in air to air combat ; Edwin Benbow ' s victory of 6 March 1917 over the Red Baron is usually overlooked . However , it was the only time the Red Baron was wounded in action . Woodbridge later described the action : Richthofen ' s subsequent medical treatment disclosed that the bullet that hit him may have come from behind . Despite Cunnell and Woodbridge ' s confirmed claim for this aerial victory , Richthofen may have fallen from fire from one of the other FE . 2s of 20 Squadron , from being shot down by Raymond Collishaw , or even from one of Collishaw ' s wingmen from ' B ' Flight , 10 Naval Squadron such as William Melville Alexander , Ellis Vair Reid , or Desmond Fitzgibbon . Cunnell was killed by German antiaircraft fire a few days later on 12 July 1917 near Wervicq , Belgium ; his observer , Lt . A . G . Bill , successfully flew his fighter back to base . At the time of Cunnell ' s death he held the rank of Captain , RFC . He was buried at the Bailleul Communal Cemetery Extension North at Bailleul , France close to the Belgian border , in grave III . C . 263 .

40 cm / 45 Type 94 naval gun The Japan ese was the largest bore gun ever mounted on any warship . They were actually 46 cm ( 18 . 1 in ) guns , but were designated 40 cm ( 15 . 7 in ) in an effort to hide their true size . Description . The built - up gun s were mounted as the main armament of the " Yamato " - class battleship s that were in service with the Imperial Japanese Navy during World War II . The turrets the guns were mounted in weighed 2 , 510 tons each , which is about the same tonnage as an average sized destroyer of the era . The Japanese guns were of a slightly larger bore than the three British 18 inch naval guns built during World War I , although the shells were not as heavy . Britain had later designed the N3 - class battleship with 18 - inch guns but none were built , leaving no Allied naval guns to compare with the Type 94 . Unlike the very large guns of other navies they could fire special anti - aircraft shells ( " Sanshiki " ) referred to as " beehive " .

Westland Whirlwind ( helicopter ) The Westland Whirlwind helicopter was a British licence - built version of the U . S . Sikorsky S - 55 / H - 19 Chickasaw . It primarily served with the Royal Navy ' s Fleet Air Arm in anti - submarine and search and rescue roles . Design and development . In 1950 , Westland Aircraft , already building the American Sikorsky S - 51 under license as the Westland Dragonfly , purchased the rights to manufacture and sell Sikorsky ' s larger Sikorsky S - 55 helicopter . While a Sikorsky - built pattern aircraft was flown by Westland in June 1951 , converting the design to meet British standards ( including the provision of a revised main - rotor gearbox ) , was time consuming , and the first prototype British aircraft , registered " G - AMJT " , powered by the 600 hp Pratt & Whitney R - 1340 - 40 Wasp did not fly until August 1953 . This was followed by ten Whirlwind HAR . 1s , which entered service shortly afterwards . They served in non - combat roles , including search and rescue and communications functions . The HAR . 3 had a larger 700 hp Wright R - 1300 - 3 Cyclone 7 engine . The performance of early versions was limited by the power of the American Wasp or Cyclone engines , and in 1955 , the HAR . 5 , powered by the more powerful British power plant , the Alvis Leonides Major , flew for the first time . This was followed by the similarly powered HAS . 7 , which became the first British helicopter designed for anti - submarine warfare in the front - line when it entered service in 1957 . It could either be equipped with a dipping Sonar for submarine detection or carry a torpedo , but could not carry both simultaneously , so sonar equipped " Hunters " were used to direct torpedo armed " Killers " . The HAS . 7 was powered by a 750 hp ( 560 kW ) Alvis Leonides Major 755 / 1 radial engine . It had a hovering ceiling at and a range of 334 miles at 86 mph . Later in their lives , some HAS . 7s were converted to use the Rolls - Royce Gnome turboshaft engine , as the HAR . 9 . After entering service with the Royal Navy , the Whirlwind came to be used by the British Army and Royal Air Force . More than 400 Whirlwinds were built , of which nearly 100 were exported to foreign customers . The French Navy received 37 Whirlwind HAR . 2 between 1954 and 1957 . Variants . The model numbers for the US - built evaluation models were Survivors . Over 69 aircraft remain in private ownership , dumped or in museums including the RAF Museum and the Fleet Air Arm Museum as well as being the current gate guardian at RAF Odiham .
