Project Pigeon During World War II , Project Pigeon ( later Project Orcon , for " organic control " ) was American behaviorist B . F . Skinner ' s attempt to develop a pigeon - guided missile . The control system involved a lens , up to an array of three lenses at the front of the missile – using the same National Bureau of Standards - developed airframe later used for the onboard radar - guided US Navy Bat missile – projecting an image of the target to a screen inside , while one to three pigeons trained ( by operant conditioning ) to recognize the target pecked at it . As long as the pecks remained in the center of the screen , the missile would fly straight , but pecks off - center would cause the screen to tilt , which would then , via a connection to the missile ' s flight controls , cause the missile to change course and slowly change the flight path towards its designated target . Although skeptical of the idea , the National Defense Research Committee nevertheless contributed $ 25 , 000 to the research . However , Skinner ' s plans to use pigeons in bat bomb s was considered too eccentric and impractical ; although he had some success with the training , Skinner complained " our problem was no one would take us seriously . " The program was canceled on October 8 , 1944 , because the military believed that " further prosecution of this project would seriously delay others which in the minds of the Division have more immediate promise of combat application . " Project Pigeon was revived by the Navy in 1948 as " Project Orcon " ; it was canceled in 1953 when electronic guidance systems ' reliability was proven .

Battle of Tunis The Battle of Tunis , also known as the Battle of Bagrades , between the Roman Republic and Carthage occurred in the spring of 255 BC during the First Punic War . The battle ended in a decisive Carthaginian victory . Prelude . The mercenary general Xanthippus was hired by the city of Carthage following heavy - handed negotiations by Rome . He made the Romans fight on open ground , which allowed him to maximize the effect of the excellent Carthaginian cavalry and elephants . The Roman army under Marcus Atilius Regulus was based at Tunis . Faced by the resurgent Carthaginian army Regulus was keen to gain another victory rather than risk the chance that someone else would get the glory of eventual victory . All we have from the sources is Polybios ' report that Regulus had 15 , 000 Infantry and 500 Cavalry when he returned home . Deployment . Xanthippus is credited with the Carthaginian deployment , with a hastily raised phalanx of civilians in the centre , mercenary infantry on their right and a line of elephants in front of the infantry , with the elite Carthaginian cavalry split between the two flanks . The Romans were formed in their normal formation , with the legionary infantry in the centre and the outnumbered cavalry on the flanks . The Battle . The Carthaginians started the battle with an attack by the elephants . This tied up the main force of Roman infantry . The Roman cavalry , outnumbered eight to one , was quickly defeated . Only on their left did the Romans have any success , when 2 , 000 troops , possibly allied troops , defeated the mercenaries facing them , and chased them back past their camp . Meanwhile , in the centre the elephant attack had been withstood , but only a few isolated units of Roman infantry managed to get past them to attempt to attack the Carthaginian phalanx , and those were quickly defeated . Finally , the Carthaginian cavalry charged the already shaken Romans from both sides , destroying what cohesion was left . Only the 2 , 000 troops successful earlier in the battle escaped to be rescued by the Roman fleet . Regulus himself was taken prisoner . Some later Roman writers claim that his eyelids were cut off and he was trampled to death by an enraged elephant . However Polybius does not mention it and Diodorus , ( a writer hostile to the Carthaginians ) implies he died from natural causes . The defeat , and serious disasters in storms at sea , ended any chance that Rome would defeat Carthage in Africa , and ensured that the rest of the war was fought in Sicily and at sea . References . http : / / penelope . uchicago . edu / Thayer / E / Roman / Texts / Polybius / 1 * . html Polybios : Histories , Book 1 9 . It resulted that in this battle the Carthaginians lost about eight hundred of the mercenaries , who had faced the Roman left wing , while of the Romans there were saved but about two thousand , whom the pursuit of the mercenaries I mentioned above carried out of the main battle .

Friedrich von Rabenau Friedrich von Rabenau ( 10 October 1884 – 15 April 1945 ) was a German career - soldier , general , theologian , and opponent of National Socialism . Biography . Rabenau was born in Berlin to the physician Friedrich von Rabenau ( 1847 – 1885 ) and Wally , née Noebel . He joined the Prussian Army in 1903 as a member of the 72nd Field Artillery Regiment ( stationed at Danzig ) , served in World War I , and remained in the Weimar German Reichswehr . In 1936 , Von Rabenau was assigned by the then head of the general staff , Generaloberst Ludwig August Theodor Beck , to establish ( from the Reichsarchiv ) the first central archive of the German army , in Potsdam . Well suited to the task , Rabenau strove to prevent ideological falsifications with a scientific diligence in gathering sources that was second to none . His Christian beliefs led him to join the opposition to Nazism early . Rabenau was a " Rechtsritter " ( " Knight of Justice " ) in the supradenominational Order of Saint John . As a Protestant Christian and a general , he successfully applied to then Reichsführer SS Heinrich Himmler for permission to take over Maria Laach Abbey , which had been seized from Roman Catholic Cardinal Graf von Galen in Münster . Rabenau joined no resistance group , though he did act as a conduit between Generaloberst Ludwig Beck and Carl Friedrich Goerdeler , whom he knew from his time as an " Abteilungskommandeur " ( " Section Commander " ) in Königsberg ( now Kaliningrad ) . In mid - 1942 Von Rabenau was relieved of his office , transferred to the Führerreserve ( a classification for high - ranking officers who were without billet which was often used by Hitler to push aside officers with whom he was not pleased ) at his current rank of " General der Artillerie " ( " General of Artillery " ) , and thus sent into premature retirement . He studied Protestant theology at the University of Berlin and in 1943 was made " Licentiatus theologiae " , writing his dissertation on military chaplaincy . Von Rabenau was arrested in the aftermath of the plot which culminated in the attempt on Hitler ' s life on July 20 , 1944 . On April 15 , 1945 , without having been charged or tried , General von Rabenau , one of the last inmates remaining in the Flossenbürg concentration camp , was shot on the specific orders of Himmler . The execution order was issued by Gestapo Chief Heinrich Müller with additional orders to report his death as resulting from a low - flying allied air attack . The Flossenburg Memorial erroneously gives Rabenau ' s date of judicial murder as April 9 , 1945 . Surviving him were his widow Eva Kautz and their two daughters . Works .
