McDonnell Douglas F - 15 Eagle The McDonnel Douglas F - 15 Eagle is an all - weather , extremely maneuverable , tactical fighter designed to permit the Air Force to gain and maintain air superiority in aerial combat . Also of note , it is the first American fighter aircraft developed specifically for air - to - air combat since the F - 86 Sabre designed in 1947 . Description . The Eagle ' s air superiority is achieved through a mixture of unprecedented maneuverability and acceleration , range , weapons and avionics . It can penetrate enemy defense and outperform and outfight any current enemy aircraft . The F - 15 has electronic systems and weaponry to detect , acquire , track and attack enemy aircraft while operating in friendly or enemy - controlled airspace . The Eagle can be armed with the AIM - 7F / M Sparrow or AIM - 120 AMRAAM ( Advanced Medium Range Air - to - Air Missile ) radar guided missiles on its lower fuselage corners , with AIM - 9L / M Sidewinder or AIM - 120 missiles on two pylons under the wings , and an internal M61 Vulcan 20mm Gatling gun in the right wing root . The weapons and flight control systems are designed so one person can safely and effectively perform air - to - air combat . The F - 15 ' s superior maneuverability , rate - of - climb , and acceleration are achieved through high engine thrust - to - weight ratio and low wing loading . Low wing - loading ( the ratio of aircraft weight to its wing area ) is a vital factor in maneuverability and , combined with the high thrust - to - weight ratio , enables the aircraft to turn tightly without losing airspeed ; the concept of low wing loading has been used in many other great fighters long before the F - 15 , including the Spitfire of World War II . As a result , the F - 15 is one of the deadliest ( and best ) fighters ever built . This is evident in the aircraft ' s reputation , for during Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2003 , the Iraqi Air Force disobeyed orders and refused to fly out of fear of the F - 15 . As of today , the F - 15 kill ratio stands at 108 air - to - air victories and no air - to - air losses . The F - 15 is used by the US , Israel , Japan , and Saudi Arabia . However , in US , it is being replaced by the F - 22 Raptor .

Attack on Orleans The Attack on Orleans , in July 1918 was a naval and air action during the First World War . An Imperial German U - boat opened fire on the American town of Orleans , Massachusetts and several merchant vessels nearby . A tugboat was sunk , but shells fired in the direction of the town landed harmlessly in a marsh and on a beach . Attack . On the morning on July 21 , 1918 , under the command of Richard Feldt , SM " U - 156 " was positioned off Nauset Beach , located in Orleans , Massachusetts . She was armed with two torpedo tube s and 18 torpedo es as well as two 105 millimeter deck gun s , with 1672 shells . " U - 156 " surfaced and opened fire on the town with her deck guns , then with torpedoes and her deck guns on the 140 foot tugboat , " Perth Amboy " , which was surrounded by four wooden barges . Men from the nearby Coast Guard station rushed up to the observation tower to see what the commotion was . One of them called Chatham Naval Air Station to inform them of the ongoing U - boat attack . Reuben Hopkins , a Coast Guard veteran of the engagement , reached the tower rail in time to see an enemy shell explode over the tugboat . The tug was quickly sunk and U - 156 then started firing upon the barges . Escaping from the now burning " Perth Amboy " and barges were 32 merchant sailors and civilians , including the captain ' s wife and children . Reuben Hopkins stayed behind as other men went to rescue the tugboat survivors who were coming ashore in lifeboats . Soon , Curtiss HS - 2L and R - 9 seaplanes arrived to bomb the U - boat , but the ordnance dropped either were duds or failed to hit the target and the warplanes had to fly back to Chatham , Massachusetts to reload . Aftermath . SM " U - 156 " got away and headed north , where it continued to attack other allied ships . Back in Orleans , a few shells and craters were found on shore ; some also were found in the nearby marsh . The area sustained minor damage . The psychological effects on the population of Orleans were immediate as people began reporting the hearing of naval battles off the coast . Others talked about the supposed " mother ship " for " U - 156 " . Newspapers dubbed the engagement as the " Battle of Orleans " and offered a reward for the discovery of submarine supply bases in the Bay of Fundy . Towns also banned lights for fear that German spies would use them to signal U - boats . The attack on Orleans was the only Central Powers raid mounted against the United States mainland during World War I . It was also the first time the Continental United States was shelled by foreign enemy guns since the Siege of Fort Texas in 1846 . There were no fatalities . The Continental U . S . would be shelled again twice in 1942 by Japanese submarines during the Pacific War . These two engagements are known as the Bombardment of Fort Stevens along the northeast Pacific coast of Oregon , and the Bombardment of Ellwood near Santa Barbara , California .
Evidenzbureau The k . u . k . Evidenzbureau ( modernized spelling " Evidenzbüro " ) was the directorate of military intelligence of the Austro - Hungarian Empire , headquartered in Vienna , Austria . Foundation . Founded in 1850 as the first permanent military intelligence service , the Evidenzbureau became active in the 1859 Austro - Sardinian war and the 1866 campaign against Prussia , albeit with little success . The Evidenzbureau initially reported to the k . u . k . Foreign Ministry , but was reassigned to the General Staff at the outbreak of World War I . It existed until the end of the monarchy in 1918 . The " Kundschaftsbüro " , tasked with monitoring foreign states , was subordinate to the Evidenzbureau . Functions . Towards the end of the 19th century , tensions among the major European powers were rising , leading to increased activities of intelligence services . Mirroring political interests , attention of Austro - Hungarian services was primarily directed east - and southward ( Russia and the Balkans ) ; conversely , Russia was chiefly interested in affairs of Austria - Hungary and the German Reich . The bureau collected intelligence of military relevance from various sources into daily reports to the Chief of Staff " ( Generalstabschef ) " and weekly reports to Emperor Franz Joseph ; until 1913 , the reports to the Emperor had to be submitted in longhand . The core Bureau at the time consisted of 20 officers , a fraction of the numbers employed in the German or Russian services . This shortage was primarily because the service was part of the Foreign Ministry , which , as a k . u . k . institution , customarily received only the minimum acceptable amount of financing from the Hungarian side ( see also " Ausgleich " ) . World War I . In 1903 , the Russian services succeeded in enlisting Col . Alfred Redl , General Staff officer and later head of counter - intelligence and deputy director of the Evidenzbureau , as a double agent . His discovery in 1913 led to a severe political and military crisis in Austria at the eve of World War I . During that war , the importance of the Bureau was on the rise ; the relatively new task of intercepting radio transmissions was added to its traditional functions such as mail censorship . In the last year of the War ( 1918 ) , the Evidenzbureau – then led by Maj . Maximilian Ronge – combined with the domestic intelligence service " ( Staatspolizei ) " is reported to have employed 300 officers , 50 officials , 400 police agents , 600 soldiers and 600 informants . Directors . Notable officers

HMS Hampshire ( D06 ) — HMS " Hampshire " was a County - class destroyer of the Royal Navy . Laid down , in March 1959 a couple of weeks behind the class leader Devonshire , she was classifed as a Guided Missile destroyer , as the Sea Lords regarded the concept of the Cruiser and big gun ship as discredited by the percieved failure of the Tiger class and the obsolesence of the heavy gun . The description of Guided Missile Destroyer seemed more likely to win approval from the Treasury and Government for an adequate number of warships the size of small cruisers which could play many traditional cruiser flagship and command functions but had armour around neither its gun or missile magazine . In the late 1960 ' s there were plans to upgrade Hampshire and sister destroyers armed with Seaslug Mk 1 but this was rejected because of the amount of the time the ships would be out of the operational fleet . She was decommissioned in 1976 at a time the Labour Government was making severe defence cuts under pressure from the IMF . and cannibalised for spares to service her sister ships . " Hampshire " was sold for scrap in 1979 .

Fort Malden Fort Malden is a fort that stands on the remains of Fort Amherstburg in Amherstburg , Ontario . The original fort was abandoned by the British / Canadians in 1813 when Southwest Ontario fell into American hands . The Americans began building a smaller replacement fort on the same site , but this was unfinished at the end of the war , when the region was returned to the British Empire . The fort was finally rebuilt between 1838 and 1840 and served as an important staging area for the 34th ( Cumberland ) Regiment of Foot that participated in actions around Essex county Ontario during the Upper Canada Rebellion from 1837 to 1838 . This fort lasted until 1851 when the last regular forces occupied the site . During the final days of the fort , it was garrisoned by members of The Royal Canadian Rifle Regiment until it was finally de - militarized . From 1859 to 1870 , Fort Malden was a lunatic asylum ( during which period many of the surviving trees were planted to provide shade ) . Abandoned once again , the fort was acquired as a park by the Government of Canada in 1937 and remains a National Historic Site of Canada to this day known as Fort Malden National Historic Site . The original stone barracks still stand , as do the cooking and laundry facility that were erected during the fort ' s time as an asylum ( it now serves as a museum building ) . Staff can be seen wearing the uniform of the 34th Regiment of Foot for the Canadian Rebellion period and as well the Caldwell ' s Western Rangers who served during the War of 1812 . Affiliations . The Museum is affiliated with : CMA , CHIN , and Virtual Museum of Canada .

In 1943 he took US citizenship and was drafted into the army as a commissioned officer . At the end of the war he returned to Germany as a control officer for film and remained there until 1948 as director of the film section . In 1949 he appeared in his first German film " Hallo , Fräulein ! " He gained international recognition with a leading role in the 1953 film " Le Salaire de la peur " ( " The Wages of Fear " ) directed by Henri - Georges Clouzot .

Anti - Partisan Guerrilla Warfare Badge The Anti - Partisan Guerrilla Warfare Badge ( German " Bandenkampfabzeichen " ) was an award of the German military of the Third Reich . Personnel of the Heer , Luftwaffe , and Waffen - SS were eligible to receive it . In German , it was called the " Bandenkampf - Abzeichen " , as Reichsfuhrer - SS Heinrich Himmler decided to use the term " Banden " instead of partisans , not wishing to give credence to the guerrillas . Partisans or guerrilla fighters were active in almost every country Germany invaded during the Second World War , and while many of these movements were initially small and disorganized , in many cases , they coalesced into larger , more powerful bands of fighters . In some countries , notably Greece , Russia and the Yugoslavian states , the partisans became large and dangerous movements , requiring increasing German manpower and resources to resist them . The anti - partisan guerrilla warfare badge was created in recognition of the Axis soldiers involved in these behind - the - lines battles . The badge existed in three grades , bronze , for 20 combat days , silver , for 50 combat days , and gold , for 100 combat days against partisans . Criteria were slightly different for the Luftwaffe , being based on sorties instead of days in action . The design constituted a wreath with a sword in the center . The handle has a sun wheel swastika , which represents the Nordic and auxiliary forces . The sword plunged into the " Hydra , " a multi - headed sea serpent that represented the Partisans . The mythical Greek creature was almost impossible to destroy since its heads grew again if they were cut off , this shows an interesting parallel with the ever growing presence of Partisan activities . Members of the Wehrmacht avoided wearing it , while the Waffen SS men wore it with pride , claiming it was " their " badge .
