Bantam ( military ) A bantam , in British army usage , was a soldier of below the British Army ' s minimum regulation height of 160 cm . During the First World War , the British Army raised battalion s in which the normal minimum height requirement for recruits was reduced from 5 ft 3in ( 160 cm ) to 5 ft ( 152 cm ) . This enabled otherwise healthy young men to enlist . Bantam units were drawn from industrial and coal mining areas where short stature was no sign of weakness . The name derives from the former town of Bantam in Indonesia , from which a breed of small domestic fowl is thought to have originated . Bantamweight was a weight category in boxing that had originated in the 1880s and produced many notable boxers . The first bantam battalions were recruited in Birkenhead , Cheshire , after Alfred Bigland , MP , heard of a group of miners who , rejected from every recruiting office , had made their way to the town . One of the miners , rejected on account of his size , offered to fight any man there as proof of his suitability as a soldier , and six men were eventually called upon to remove him . Bantam applicants were men used to physical hard work , and Bigland was so incensed at what he saw as the needless rejection of spirited healthy men , he petitioned the War Office for permission to establish an undersized fighting unit . When the permission was granted , news spread across the country and men previously denied the chance to fight made their way to Birkenhead , 3 , 000 successful recruits being accepted for service into two new " Bantam battalions " in November 1914 . The requirement for their height was between 4 ft 10in ( 147 cm ) and 5 ft 3in ( 160 cm ) . Chest size was one inch ( 2 . 5 cm ) more than the army standard . The men became local heroes , with the local newspaper , The Birkenhead News , honouring the men of the 1st and 2nd Birkenhead Battalions of the Cheshires with enamel badges - " BBB " - Bigland ' s Birkenhead Bantams . Soon renamed the 15th and 16th Battalions , Cheshire Regiment , they undertook gruelling training and served in some of the most hard fought battles of the war , such as the Battle of Arras in 1917 . Eventually two whole divisions , the 35th and the 40th , were formed from ' Bantam ' men , who were virtually annihilated during the Battle of Bourlon . Heavy casualties , transfers to specialized Army tunneling companies and tank regiments , the introduction of conscription , and replacements by taller men , eventually led to Bantam units becoming indistinguishable from other British divisions . A thorough study is published in " The Bantams : The untold story of World War One , " by Sidney Allinson .

Smith on the Steelnavy Website : " Clayton Fisher died in his wife ' s arms in the back of their car on Tuesday 3rd January 2011 . His heart had been bad for many years but his brain was 100 % We should all honour and mourn his passing . Clayton was one of only two surviving SBD pilots from the Battle of Midway , the other is Dusty Kleiss . I met and stayed at the homes of both these men when researching that battle . They are the real Americans , doers rather than talkers and they won that , and other , battles by their deeds , NOT by sitting at desks speculating theories . Clayton was a great man , really great when the word is overused . A true hero , brave and modest who just kept going back . When he ended his war in the Pacific he was back flying missions in Korea defending our freedom . He flew from Hornet and what he saw he repeated to me face to face . Others mocked his version of events , but his memory was crystal clear I told his truthful story in my book , when many other historians refused to believe his version of events . Well , they can all go hang , I certainly believed what he told me , never doubted it , and will go on saying so as long as I am around , count on it . Bravo Zulu Clay . Your certainly earned your peace . "

Advanced Inertial Reference Sphere The Advanced Inertial Reference Sphere , or AIRS , is a highly accurate inertial guidance system designed for use in the LGM - 118A Peacekeeper ICBM which was intended for precision nuclear strike against Soviet missile silos . Details . AIRS is a fluid stabilized system , as opposed to one using gimbals . It consists of a beryllium sphere floating in fluid . Jet nozzles are used to stabilize the inertial platform as commanded from the sensors . This design not only eliminates the problem of gimbal lock , but also makes it extremely accurate ( drift less than 1 . 5×10° / h ) , accurate enough so any further improvement would give a negligible benefit to the missile ' s CEP . The sensors used in AIRS are floated gas bearing gyroscopes and SFIR accelerometers which are derivatives of PIGA accelerometer s . Although this type of accelerometer is most accurate it contains many precise parts which makes them very expensive to build ( approximately $ 300 , 000 per unit ) . PIGA / SFIR accelerometers are also very susceptible to failure because of complicated design . Usage . The AIRS was originally developed for the LGM - 118A Peacekeeper . The first AIRS units were manufactured by Northrop .

Tenth Army ( France ) The Tenth Army ( ) was a Field army of the French Army during World War I . It took part in the Battle of the Somme in 1916 . The Tenth Army , under the title of the French Expeditionary Force , moved onto the Italian Front in 1917 alongside the British Expeditionary Force ( Italy ) at the request of the Italian Supreme Commander , General Luigi Cadorna . For this operation the army included the 12th Army Corps . The Italians had been pushed back at the Battle of Caporetto by German Army reinforced Austro - Hungarian divisions . French forces were settled mostly west of the city of Verona , supposedly to counter a rumoured offensive by Austro - Hungarian forces that would purportedly come from the County of Tyrol via the Adige river valley . After the armistice it was part of the occupation of the Rhineland . On 21 October 1919 it was combined with the Eighth Army to form the French Army of the Rhine . It was reformed in the Second World War . Une première 10e armée est démembrée les 7 et 8 juin 1940 , avec d ’ une part l ’ encerclement du 9th Army Corps at Saint - Valéry - en - Caux et , d ’ autre le rattachement des 10e et 25e corps à l ’ Armée de Paris . After the rupture of the Somme front , on 5 et 6 June 1940 , the last phase de la bataille de France s ’ engage . Pour les Alliés , il devient essentiel de se rétablir sur la Seine pour tenter d ’ arrêter by the Germans . This is why a new 10th Armée est créée de toutes pièces pour tenir le front de la Basse Seine et placée sous le commandement du général Robert Altmayer ( 1875 + 1959 ) . Ses effectifs sont disparates et ne sont pas encore tous en place alors que les Allemands se présentent dès le 9 juin au nord du fleuve et le traversent dans la foulée dans le secteur de Portejoie , Saint - Pierre - du - Vauvray et Venables . Rapidement la ville de Louviers , défendue par des troupes françaises et britanniques , se trouve en première ligne . La rupture définitive de la ligne Weygand sur toute son étendue entraîne un déferlement des armées allemandes sur le territoire français . Le franchissement de la Seine , dans la foulée , ne laisse augurer aucun sursis .
