The Black Book The Black Book was the post - war name given to the Sonderfahndungsliste G . B . ( ' Special Search List G . B ' ) , the list of prominent Britons to be arrested in the case of a successful invasion of Britain by Nazi Germany in World War II . The list was a product of the SS Einsatzgruppen and compiled by Walter Schellenberg . It contained the names of 2 , 820 people , British subjects and European exiles , living in Britain who were to be immediately arrested if " Unternehmen Seelöwe " , the invasion of Britain , succeeded . The list was appended to the ' Informationsheft GB ' , a 144 page handbook containing information on important aspects of British society including institutions such as embassies , universities , newspaper offices , and Freemasons ' Lodges . It is alleged that British intelligence mole Dick Ellis provided much of the information . However , much of the information on notable Britons was readily available through the British newspapers . Background . The original handbook , or ' Informationsheft GB ' covered geography , economics , political system , government , legal system , administration , military , education system , important museums , press and radio , religion , parties , immigrants , freemasons , Jews , police apparatus and secret service . The ' Black Book ' , as it is known in the tabloid press , was a later appendage and consisted of 104 pages of names listed in alphabetical order . ' Fahndungsliste ' translates into ' wanted list ' , ' sonderfahndungsliste into ' especially wanted list ' or ' most wanted list ' . Beside each name was the number of the RSHA ( Reich Main Security Office ) to which the person was to be handed over . Churchill was to be placed into the custody of Amt VI ( Foreign Military Intelligence ) , but the vast majority of the people listed in the Black Book would be placed into the custody of Amt IV ( Gestapo ) . The book had several notable mistakes , such as people who had already died ( Lytton Strachey ) or moved away ( Paul Robeson ) , and omissions ( such as George Bernard Shaw , one of the few English language writers whose works were published and performed in Nazi Germany ) . A print run produced 20 , 000 books but the warehouse in which they were stored was destroyed in a bombing raid and only two originals are known to survive ( one in the Imperial War Museum in London ) . On learning of the book , Rebecca West is said to have sent a telegram to Noël Coward saying " My dear - the people we should have been seen dead with . " The list was similar to earlier lists prepared by SS , such as the Special Prosecution Book - Poland ( German : " Sonderfahndungsbuch Polen " ) . It was a list of enemies of the Reich list prepared before the war by members of the German fifth column in cooperation with German Intelligence . The 61 , 000 people on this list were targets of Einsatzgruppen during Operation Tannenberg and Intelligenzaktion , actions of elimination of Polish intelligentsia and the upper classes in occupied Poland between 1939 and 1941 .

Silver War Badge The Silver War Badge was issued in the United Kingdom to service personnel who had been honourably discharged due to wounds or sickness during World War I . The badge , sometimes known as the Discharge Badge , Wound Badge or Services Rendered Badge , was first issued in September 1916 , along with an official certificate of entitlement . The sterling silver lapel badge was intended to be worn in civilian clothes .

The badge bears the royal cipher of GRI ( for " Georgius Rex Imperator " ; George , King and Emperor ) and around the rim " For King and Empire ; Services Rendered " . Each badge was uniquely numbered on the reverse . The War Office made it known that they would not replace Silver War Badges if they went missing , however if one was handed into a police station then it would be returned to the War Office . If the original recipient could be traced at his or her discharge address then the badge would be returned . A very similar award , known as the King ' s Badge , was issued in World War II . Although each was accompanied by a certificate , issues of this latter award were not numbered . Silver War Badge - " Medal Cards and Rolls " . The ' SWB List ' when mentioned on a medal card refers to a list that is now kept in The National Archives . There are two different types of cards on which the List can be mentioned . If there is no Silver War Badge Card , then the details of the soldier ' s discharge can be found out by a visit to the National Archives at Kew . There should be a reference to a Silver War Badge Roll , for example in the picture above it says " SWB List TH / 345 " this refers to the roll in which the man is mentioned . On the Silver War Badge roll it should mention at the very least the number of the badge , the official reason and date of his discharge . A silver war badge card , can be accessed online via the National Archives , Documents Online . On the card it should mention the date of discharge , the cause and the number of the badge ( in many ways just like a Silver War Badge Roll but online , and therefore easier to access ) Records for the Australian Imperial Force can be accessed via King ' s Regulations For Discharge . There are twenty - nine different ways in which someone could have been discharged under the King ' s Regulations . On a Silver War Badge Card , it could say KR ( xxi ) as it does on the example SWB card . This stands for King ' s Regulations , section twenty - one . The different regulations are ; Issued Numbers . Approximately 1 , 150 , 000 badges were issued , which had to be claimed and then approved , generally covered by § ( xvi ) above . The numbers on the back of the badge kept changing during the war . See also .

This revolver is a silent weapon . The effective range of fire is 50m . The fired cases are kept in the cylinder thus ensuring the absence of sound of fire . The cartridge employs a captive piston so there is no flash or loud report upon discharge . As the cartridge is rimless , the cylinder is fed via full moon clips . Noiseless and flameless shot is made due to special SP - 4 cartridges with power gases localized in the case . The OTs - 38 revolver can be rightfully called noiseless , since the noise level when making a shot and dry firing is practically identical The revolver features a number of unusual features . The barrel is mounted below the axis pin , the cylinder pivots out to the right , and it features a manual safety catch . The pre - cocked hammer can be set on manual safety . This enables to carry the revolver with a cocked hammer . The provided safety eliminates accidental discharge with the cylinder open or not fully closed , with the revolver dropped or struck .

The OTs - 38 also features an optional integral laser sight that is powered by 3 D - 0 . 03D batteries .

His mother ' s father , also called Cuitlahuac , had been ruler of Itztapalapan , and the younger Cuitláhuac also ruled there initially . Cuitláhuac was made " tlatoani " of Tenochtitlan during the Spanish conquest of Mexico ; After Pedro de Alvarado had ordered the massacre in the Main Temple , the Aztecs were very upset and started to fight and put a siege to the Spaniards . Hernán Cortés ordered Moctezuma to ask his people to stop fighting . Moctezuma told him that they would not listen to him and suggested Cortés free Cuitláhuac so that he could convince them to dispose of their arms and not fight anymore . Cortés then freed Cuitláhuac and once Cuitláhuac was free he led his people against the conquistadors . He succeeded and the Spaniards were driven out of Tenochtitlan on June 30 , 1520 . Cuitláhuac was ritually married to Moctezuma ' s eldest daughter , a ten - or eleven - year - old girl who later was called Isabel Moctezuma . After having ruled for just 80 days , Cuitláhuac died of smallpox that had been introduced to the New World by the Europeans . His elder brother Matlatzincatzin , who had been " cihuacoatl " ( " president " ) , resigned upon Cuitláhuac ' s death . As soon as Cuitláhuac died , Cuauhtémoc was made the next " tlatoani " . The modern Mexican municipality of Cuitláhuac , Veracruz and the Mexico City Metro station Metro Cuitláhuac are named in honor of Cuitláhuac . The asteroid 2275 Cuitláhuac is also named after this ruler . There is an Avenue in Mexico City Called Cuitláhuac ( Eje 3 Norte ) that runs from Avenue Insurgentes to Avenue Mexico - Tacuba and that is part of an inner ring ; also many streets in other towns and villages in Mexico are so called .

Byrsa Byrsa was the walled citadel above the harbour in ancient Carthage . It was also the name of the hill it rested on . The name is derived from the Phoenician word for " citadel " . In Virgil ' s account of Dido ' s founding of Carthage , when Dido and her party were encamped at Byrsa , the local Berber chieftain offered them as much land as could be covered with a single oxhide . Therefore , Dido cut an oxhide into tiny strips and set them on the ground end to end until she had completely encircled Byrsa . This story is considered apocryphal , and was most likely invented because " Byrsa " sounds similar to the Greek word " βυρσα " , meaning " oxhide " . The citadel dominated the city below and formed the principal military installation of Carthage . It was besieged by Scipio Aemilianus Africanus in the Third Punic War and was defeated and destroyed in 146 BC . Saint Louis Cathedral was built on Byrsa Hill starting in 1884 . Today , it serves as a cultural center .
