Short Admiralty Type 74 The Short Admiralty Type 74 was a single - engined biplane tractor seaplane with non - folding wings , which saw service with the Royal Naval Air Service during the First World War . Design and development . The Type 74 incorporated some of the innovations Horace Short had introduced on the Short Admiralty Type 42 , including manganese - steel tube struts instead of wood . In addition to the two main rubber - sprung floats below the fuselage and the single tail float , it also had smaller floats attached below the tips of the lower wing . Ailerons were mounted on the upper wing only , the latter extending beyond the span of the lower wing . The extensions were braced by diagonal struts to the lower wing - tips . Since it was intended for use as a coastal patrol seaplane operating from coastal stations , there was no requirement for the Type 74 to have folding wing s . The Type 74 was powered by a 100 hp ( 74 . 6 kW ) Gnome double Omega engine , which provided a maximum flight duration of 5 hours . Operational history . In 1913 the Royal Navy ordered seven 100 hp biplane seaplanes from Shorts , which were assigned the company ' s serial numbers " 69 - 75 " . The first of these flew on 4 January 1914 , piloted by Gordon Bell , Chief Test Pilot at Shorts . He was accompanied on this first flight by Charles Richard Fairey ( later Sir Richard Fairey ) , who left Shorts in 1915 to found the Fairey Aviation company . When this first aircraft was delivered to the Royal Navy air station on the Isle of Grain it received the Navy ' s serial number " 74 " , so this and the remaining 6 aircraft from the batch ( Navy numbers " 74 - 80 " ) were therefore known as the Admiralty Type 74 according to the rules in use at the time . Of the seven aircraft , four ( including Naval nos . " 75 " and " 79 " ) were dispatched to the air station at Dundee , the other three remaining at the Grain air station . The Dundee aircraft took part in the 1914 Royal Fleet Review off Spithead as part of a contingent of 17 seaplanes and four airships .

The Japanese 18th Army was formed on November 9 , 1942 , under the Japanese Eighth Area Army of the Southern Expeditionary Army Group for the specific task of opposing landings by Allied forces in Japanese - occupied New Guinea . Upon establishment , it was made up of three divisions : the 20th , which had been raised from men from Kyushu , and the 41st and 51st Divisions formed from the Kantō region . New Guinea campaign . Both the 20th and 41st Divisions arrived in New Guinea safely . However , the 51st Division , including the army ' s commander , Hatazō Adachi , and his senior staff , came under Allied air attack while en route from their supply base at Rabaul to Lae , in the Battle of the Bismarck Sea . All eight transport ships and four destroyers were sunk with the loss of 3 , 664 men , and only 2 , 427 men of the division were rescued . Operation Cartwheel , an Allied master plan implemented from mid - 1943 , progressively severed the supply lines between Rabaul and frontline Japanese forces . Key defeats included the withdrawal of the Imperial Japanese Navy from the Solomon Islands campaign , followed by landings on New Britain , as well as Aitape and Hollandia , in April 1944 . Adachi ' s forces were badly affected by tropical diseases including malaria , heat exhaustion and malnutrition for the remainder of the war , despite Adachi ' s efforts to achieve some form of self - sufficiency by planting crops and giving priority in rations to the sick . As ammunition began to run low , many of Japanese field commanders resorted to banzai charge s , rather than surrender . By the end of the war in September 1945 , most of his forces had been annihilated . Of Adachi ' s original 140 , 000 men , barely 13 , 000 were still alive when the war ended . The remnants of the Japanese 18th Army surrendered to the Australian 6th Division at Cape Wom , by Wewak , New Guinea . They were held on Mushu Island before being returned to Japan .

Caergwrle Castle Caergwrle Castle , also known as Queen ' s Hope in scholarly texts , is located in the town of Caergwrle , in Flintshire , Wales . It was the final castle to be built by Welsh rulers before the loss of Welsh independence in 1283 . Built on a steep hill near the Anglo - Welsh border , the castle has views which extend far into Cheshire . Construction of the castle began in 1277 , after King Edward I gave the lordship of Hope to Dafydd ap Gruffudd as reward for his service in the Welsh war concluded earlier that year . Notable features included two D - shaped towers and a great circular keep overlooking the approach to the south - east . It has been speculated that Dafydd employed English masons to work on the castle , which was apparently unfinished when Dafydd revolted in 1282 . By the time Edward had gathered an army to invade Wales in June , Dafydd had already retreated from Caergwrle , and had slighted the castle , even blocking up its well to deny it to the English . Edward promptly began rebuilding the castle , and gave it to his wife , Eleanor of Castile . However , a fire in 1283 gutted the castle and it was never rebuilt . Today , the castle ' s ruins are cared for by Caergwrle Community Council .

Battle of Goodrich ' s Landing The Battle of Goodrich ' s Landing , Louisiana was fought on June 29 and June 30 , 1863 , between Union and Confederate forces during the American Civil War . The Confederates attacked several Union regiments , who were composed mostly of black soldiers , in an attempt to disrupt the campaign at Vicksburg , Mississippi . Background . Goodrich ' s Landing was a cotton plantation owned by Henry Goodrich of East Carroll Parish , Louisiana . Situated on the west bank of the Mississippi River , the landing served as a shipping point for area cotton planters . When Union forces invaded the region in early 1862 , they seized the plantation and established it as a base of operations in their advance against Vicksburg . As hundreds of escaped slaves flocked to the Union camp , neighboring plantation owners abandoned their properties and evacuated to the west , into Confederate held territory . The U . S . Government subsequently confiscated these properties and leased them to Northern entrepreneurs , who employed former slaves to grow cotton . By the summer of 1863 , Union forces under the command of General U . S . Grant , had surrounded and besieged the city of Vicksburg . Confederate troops in Louisiana and Arkansas believed that by raiding Goodrich ' s Landing , they could disrupt Grant ' s supply - chain and relieve their compatriots at Vicksburg . Battle . In June 1863 , Confederates from Gaine ' s Landing , Arkansas , undertook an expedition to Lake Providence , Louisiana in an effort to disrupt the Union assault on Vicksburg . At Goodrich ' s Landing , the Union had constructed fortifications on top of an old Indian mound , which guarded a military supply depot . The Confederates planned to attack the fort on June 29 , but decided to demand an unconditional surrender first , which the Union forces accepted . Later in the day , Confederate Col . W . H . Parsons encountered companies of the 1st Kansas Mounted Infantry and routed them . The Confederates then seized Union Army supplies stored at the landing , and began burning cotton on surrounding plantations ( the Governor of Louisiana had issued orders for all cotton crops within the state to be destroyed , thereby keeping it out of Union hands ) . By the next morning , U . S . Naval boats had landed the Mississippi Marine Brigade , under the command of Brig . Gen . Alfred W . Ellet , at Goodrich ' s Landing . At dawn , he set out with Col . William F . Wood ' s black troops to find the Confederate raiders . Ellet ' s cavalry encountered the enemy first and began skirmishing . The fight became more intense as Wood ' s forces approached . Parsons eventually disengaged and fell back , taking his captured supplies with him . Aftermath . Although the Confederate expedition was successful , having disrupted Union operations and captured much - needed supplies , the raid failed in its primary objective , which was to divert Union attention from the siege at Vicksburg . The following month , on July 4 , the Confederate forces at Vicksburg surrendered and the Union gained undisputed control of the Mississippi River .

Special treatment steel Special Treatment Steel ( STS ) , also known as Protective Deck Plate . Originally developed by Carnegie Steel around 1910 , it became the U . S . Navy Bureau of Construction and Repair ( later Bureau of Ships ) standard form of high - percentage nickel steel used on all portions of a warship needing homogeneous direct impact protection armor , except gun mounts and conning towers , where Bureau of Ordnance Class " B " armor was used . Somewhat more ductile than the average for any similar armor , even Krupp ' s post - World War I " Wotan weich " armor , STS could be used as structural steel , whereas traditional armor plate was entirely deadweight . STS was expensive , but the United States could afford to use it lavishly , and did so on virtually every class of warship constructed from 1930 through the World War II era , in thicknesses ranging from bulkheads to splinter protection to armored decks to lower armor belts . STS contained approximately 1 . 75 - 2 % by weight chromium , 3 - 3 . 5 % nickel , and 0 . 35 - 0 . 4 % carbon . Unlike some similar steels , such as Krupp Ww , STS did not use molybdenum .
