Battle of the Dardanelles ( 1654 ) This battle , which took place on 16 May 1654 , was the first of a series of tough battles just inside the mouth of the Dardanelles Strait , as Venice and sometimes the other Christian forces attempted to hold the Turks back from their invasion of Crete by attacking them early . Venetian commander Giuseppe Delfino reached the mouth of the Dardanelles on 19 April after a voyage in which he lost 3 ships . His fleet of 16 sailing ships , 2 galleass es and 8 galley s was not large enough or adequately prepared . Murad , the Kapudan Pasha ( admiral ) left Istanbul with 30 sailing ships , 6 galleasses ( known in Turkey as mahons ) , and 40 galleys on 10 May and reached the Narrows , just above the mouth of the Dardanelles , on 15 May . His fleet was formed into 3 lines : sailing ships first , then galleasses , then galleys . The next day Delfino attacked . His plan was for his ships to remain at anchor until the Turks passed and then to attack the rear . However most Venetian ships sailed too soon , leaving Delfinos ship , " San Giorgio grande " , that of his second , Daniele Morosini , " Aquila d ' Oro " , along with " Orsola Bonaventura " ( Sebastiano Molino ) , " Margarita " , 2 galleasses and 2 galleys without support . " Aquila d ' Oro " was attacked first , by a large Ottoman ship which she managed to capture , before 5 Turkish vessels came to its rescue . The Ottoman vessel ended up being burnt , leading to the burning of " Aquila d ' Oro " too . Morosini was taken prisoner as he tried to flee in a boat . The action became more general , and when it was over the Venetians had lost 2 ships and 1 galley burnt , 1 galley captured , as well as the leader of the galleys , Francesco Morosini , killed , and Daniele Morosini captured . Total casualties were 30 killed and about 40 wounded , although one account had higher figures . Ottoman losses were 2 sailing ships burnt , and perhaps 1 galleass and 1 galley lost .

The ruins of the Ackeburg are located in the eastern part of that region of the Harz known as Mansfeld Land between Mägdesprung ( north of Harzgerode ) and Meisdorf ( southwest of Falkenstein / Harz ) on a rocky ridge ( ) high above the valley of the River Selke on its northern flank . It lies in the forested country of the Harz / Saxony - Anhalt Nature Park within the Selke Valley ( " Selketal " ) nature reserve about 3 . 7 km southwest of the village church of Meisdorf . About 1 . 2 km to the southwest of the " Ackeburg " is the site of the Old Falkenstein Castle ( " Burg Alter Falkenstein " ) and , circa 1 km southeast lies Falkenstein Castle ( New Falkenstein ) – both on the far side of the Selke valley . History and layout . The Ackeburg was first mentioned in 1216 A . D . " " as the seat of the castellans of the counts of Falkenstein " " . From 1400 , however , it appears to have been abandoned , like the former village of " Akkeburg " that was sited at or near the castle and , of which , nothing has survived . The owners of the castle were the " " lords of Ackeburg " " . The castle , which comprised inner and outer ward s with a neck ditch and several ramparts , had an inner ward about 30 metres in diameter standing on a rocky eminence . Above that , in the direction of the highest point of that rise , was an inner ward , about 11 metres across . Today only parts of the neck ditch and transverse rampart are visible . Viewing point and walking . The Ackeburg may be reached on woodland paths from Meisdorf , including the " Meisdorfer Trift " that runs past the " Eckartsberg " ( ) and " Wilhelmsberg " ( ) hills and finally up the " Lumpenstieg " trail . About 100 metres south - southeast of the ruins lies the " Selkesicht " ( " Selke View " ) viewing point ( ca . ; ; with its picnic site ) , which is no . 204 in the system of checkpoints in the Harzer Wandernadel hiking network . From there there are views into the Selke valley and of Falkenstein Castle ( New Falkenstein ) high on a ridge on the other side . The Selke flows under the Akkeburg Bridge ( ) south of the viewing point at an elevation of about ; thus the viewing point is about 125 metres above the river . Like the castle , the " Selkesicht " viewing point may also be reached via the " Lumpenstieg " trail , which drops steeply into the Selke valley from a point a little further east down to the inn of " Zum Falken " , where it meets the Selke Valley Trail and the E11 European long distance path .

Oberführer Oberführer was an early paramilitary rank of the Nazi Party dating back to 1921 . Translated as “ senior leader ” , an " Oberführer " was typically a Nazi Party member in charge of a group of paramilitary units in a particular geographical region . From 1921 to 1925 , the phrase " Oberführer " was used as a title in the " Sturmabteilung " ( SA ) , but became an actual SA rank after 1926 . " Oberführer " was also a rank of the " Schutzstaffel " ( SS , at that time a branch of the SA ) , established in 1925 as " Gauführer " , a rank for SS officers in charge of SS personnel in the several " Gaue " throughout Germany ; in 1928 the rank was renamed " Oberführer " , and used of the commanders of the three regional " SS - Oberführerbereiche " . In 1930 , the SS was reorganized into " SS - Gruppen " and " Brigaden " , at which time " Oberführer " became subordinate to the higher rank of " Brigadeführer " . By 1932 , " Oberführer " was an established rank of the SA , SS and NSKK . It was considered at that time to be the first general officer rank , approximately the equivalent to a brigadier . " Oberführer " wore two oak leaves on the uniform collar rank patch , along with the shoulder boards and lapels of a general officer . In 1938 , the status of " SS - Oberführer " began to change with the rise of the " SS - Verfügungstruppe " which would later become the " Waffen - SS " . Since " Brigadeführer " was rated equal to a " Generalmajor " , and " Standartenführer " to an " Oberst " , " Oberführer " had no military equivalent and quickly became regarded as a senior colonel rank . This distinction continues in historical circles with most texts referring to " Oberführer " as a senior colonel rank while some others state it has a military equivalent to a British Army brigadier . Notable recipients . One of the more famous holders of the rank of " Oberführer " was Julian Scherner , immortalized in the film " Schindler ' s List " as the cold and calculating SS and Police Leader of Kraków . Emil Maurice , the actual founder of the SS in 1925 , also held the rank of " Oberführer " .
