Balad al - Shaykh massacre Balad al - Shaykh , was an Arab village , now part of the Israeli town of Nesher where a massacre was perpetrated on the night of December 31 , 1947 , to January 1 , 1948 . The Palmach , an arm of the Haganah , attacked the town while the residents were asleep , firing from the slopes of Mount Carmel , in retaliation for the killing of 39 Jews during the Haifa Oil Refinery massacre the day before , 30 December 1947 , which itself was triggered by the attack of the Zionist paramilitary group , the Irgun , who threw a number of grenades at a crowd of 100 Arab day laborers who had gathered outside the main gate of the British - owned Haifa Oil refinery looking for work , resulting in 6 deaths and 42 wounded . The Jewish agency condemned the Irgun for the " act of madness " that preceded the killing of Jewish workers at the Haifa oil refinery but at the same time authorized the raid on Balad al - Shaykh . Israeli historian Morris writes : A contemporary report in " The Times " refers to 17 Arab dead , including one woman , and thirty - three injured , among them eight women and nine children . The Jewish casualties were three dead and two injured . During the same day twelve Jews and four Arabs were injured in several cases of bomb throwing and shooting in Haifa .
Siege of Kōzuki Castle The occurred in 1578 , when the army of Mōri Terumoto attacked and captured the castle of Kōzuki in Harima Province . Kōzuki had been taken by Toyotomi Hideyoshi the previous year and entrusted to Amago Katsuhisa . When it fell to the Mōri , Amago committed " hara - kiri " . Amago ' s loyal and heroic general Yamanaka Yukimori was captured and killed in the battle . It is popularly believed in Japan that Yamanaka Shikanosuke , Amago ' s general , " sold " Amago ' s life , for the safety of his own men . The Oda forces were so vastly outnumbered and surrounded in the castle that victory was impossible . Yamanaka Shikanosuke sent a message to the Mōri general offering to surrender , and offering the ritual suicide of his master ( Amago ) . The offer was accepted , Amago committed suicide , and his forces surrendered . What precisely happened to Yamanaka Shikanosuke after the battle is unclear . Though some sources say he died in the battle , others state that he became a vassal of the enemy lord , Mōri Terumoto , but was assassinated on Mōri ' s order ( along with his new wife ) . It should also be noted that Amago Katsuhisa , the Oda vassal lord of Kōzuki Castle , though a member of the samurai class , was not especially experienced or trained as a warrior . Oda Nobunaga was running out of qualified battle - hardened lords to hold his territories , so Katsuhisa was called to Kōzuki from Kyoto , where he was studying to be a Buddhist monk . Katsuhisa was very young , in his early twenties , when he died . A memorial stone stands with his name engraved , along with Buddhist inscriptions , where he took his own life .

90th Light Infantry Division ( Wehrmacht ) The 90th Light Infantry Division was a German Army division during World War II . History . The 90th Light Infantry Division was created in August 1941 as Division z . b . V . Afrika , from units already in Africa under the control of " Divisions - Kommando z . b . V . Afrika " . The abbreviation z . b . V . stands for " zur besonderen Verwendung " , which translates as " for a special use " in English . Through its five - year existence it was redesignated several times , although always known colloquially as the " Africa Division . " This is because it was the only German combat division to have actually been raised in Africa itself . It fought for the remainder of the North African campaign , finally surrendering to the Allies in Tunisia in May 1943 . It was regarded apparently by the 2nd New Zealand Division as their special foe , as the two formations faced each other on several occasions . As with the other units of the Afrika Korps , replacement units were quickly raised from available troops stationed in Western Europe . As such , the " Africa Division " was reconstituted as the 90th Panzergrenadier Division in Sardinia during July 1943 . Evacuated from Corsica with the Sturmbrigade Reichsführer SS to the Italian mainland in October 1943 , the division appeared opposite both the Americans and British as they pushed north . It was then very nearly wiped out in the bitter fighting with the 1st Canadian Infantry Division along the Moro River in late November 1943 . A short time later it was withdrawn into reserve at Frosinone and redesignated 90th Grenadier Division ( Motorized ) . While still rebuilding , it was deployed piecemeal along the front in response to the Allies spring offensive in 1944 to serve as a rearguard while the balance of the German units in southern Italy fell back to the Winter Line . Shifted southeast from the Franco - Italian border in September 1944 , 90th Grenadier was finally listed as destroyed in the fighting south of Bologna . The remainder of its personnel surrendered to the Brazilian Expeditionary Force ( FEB ) in Italy in April 1945 .

Battle of Stanwix Station Stanwix Station , in western Arizona , was a stop on the Butterfield Overland Mail Stagecoach line built in the later 1850s near the Gila River about east of Yuma , Arizona . Originally the station was called Flap Jack Ranch later Grinnell ' s Ranch or Grinnell ' s Station . In 1862 , Grinnell ' s was listed on the itinerary of the California Column in the same place as Stanwix Ranch or Stanwix Station which became the site of the westernmost skirmish of the American Civil War . A traveler in 1864 , John Ross Browne , said Grinnell ' s was six miles southwest of the hot springs of Agua Caliente , Arizona . Skirmish at Stanwix Station . The westernmost skirmish of the American Civil War that occurred at Stanwix Station took place on March 29 , 1862 , when Capt . William P . Calloway and a vanguard of 272 troops from the California Column discovered a small detachment of Confederates led by 2nd Lt . John W . Swilling burning hay , which had been placed at Stanwix Station for the California Column ' s animals . After a brief exchange of gun fire with the much larger Union force , the Confederates retreated to Tucson , the capital of the western district of the Confederate Territory of Arizona . The skirmish resulted in the wounding of a German - born Union private , William Frank Semmelrogge ( Semmilrogge ) , who subsequently recovered . There appear to have been no other casualties . The significance of the incident was twofold . First , the burning of hay , not only at Stanwix but at five other former stagecoach stations along the Gila River east of Fort Yuma , delayed the California Column ' s advance to Tucson and Mesilla , the territorial capital of Confederate Arizona . Before the Confederates evacuated Tucson , they also removed or destroyed the supplies gathered for the Union advance by Ammi S . White at the Maricopa Villages . Secondly , and of more immediate importance , Swilling was able to reach Tucson and warn Capt . Sherod Hunter , district military commander of western Confederate Arizona , of the approaching California Column . This led Hunter to place pickets at strategic locations , leading to the Battle of Picacho Pass , where ten Confederate pickets were attacked by a Union cavalry detachment of about twelve . This " battle " was also only a skirmish , distinguished from the Stanwix Station fight simply by the comparatively more severe casualties ; three dead and three wounded Union soldiers , and three Confederates taken prisoner . Stanwix Station ( SPRR ) . The stagecoach lines were abandoned in the 1880s when the Southern Pacific Railroad completed laying track to Tucson from Yuma . The SPRR built a station just to the east of the Maricopa County line on Stanwix Flats and called it Stanwix Station .

Moores Creek National Battlefield Moores Creek National Battlefield is a United States National Battlefield managed by the National Park Service . The park commemorates the 1776 victory by a thousand Patriots over about eight hundred Loyalists at the Battle of Moore ' s Creek Bridge . The battle dashed the hopes of Royal Governor Josiah Martin of the Province of North Carolina for regaining control of the colony for the British crown . The Loyalist defeat ended British plans for an invasionary force to land in Brunswick Town , North Carolina . North Carolina voted to declare independence from the British on April 12 , 1776 , shortly after the victory at Moore ' s Creek , which is located in the Wilmington area near Currie in Pender County in southeastern North Carolina . The park was established as a National Military Park on June 2 , 1926 and was redesignated as a National Battlefield on September 8 , 1980 . 1776 battle . Loyalists , mostly Scottish Highlanders , many of whom did not have muskets and were wielding broadsword s , expected to find only a small Patriot force on February 27 , 1776 . Before the arrival of the Loyalists , the Patriots removed the planks from the bridge that crossed Moore ' s Creek . After removing the planks of wood , they smeared the remaining crossing beams with lard . This forced the Loyalists to cross the bridge in single file . As the Loyalists advanced across the bridge , Patriot shots rang out and dozens of Loyalists fell into the creek below , including their commanders . At the time , the creek was an estimated six feet deep . One commander , Lieutenant Colonel Donald McLeod , died in the battle . Another commander was Colonel Allan MacDonald , the husband of Flora MacDonald of Highland lore who aided Bonnie Prince Charlie following the Jacobite defeat at Culloden Moor in 1746 . Stunned , outgunned and leaderless , the Loyalists either surrendered or retreated in confusion . Wagons , weapons and British Pound sterling worth more than $ 1 million by today ' s value were seized by the Patriots in the days following the battle . This dramatic victory ended British authority in the colony and greatly influenced North Carolina to be the first colony to vote for independence . The Battle of Moores Creek Bridge , coupled with the Battle of Sullivan ' s Island near Charleston , South Carolina , a few months later , were the first open conflicts of the American Revolution . Both ultimately led the Thirteen Colonies to declare independence on July 4 , 1776 . Park . Throughout park , remnants remain of the 1776 road traveled by Patriot and Loyalist forces . A 1 - mile ( 1 . 6 - km ) trail with wayside exhibits leads through the battlefield and across Moores Creek . The historic bridge site is located along the trail . The park , located in a rural area , offers a visitor center with exhibits and audio - visual program , a 0 . 3 - mile ( 500 m ) colonial forest trail , and a picnic area .
