Hull maintenance technician Hull maintenance technician ( abbreviated as HT ) is a United States Navy occupational rating . Hull maintenance technicians plan , supervise , and perform tasks necessary for fabrication , installation and repair of all types of shipboard structures , plumbing , sheet metal fabrication , carpentry and piping systems ; organize , supervise , and train personnel in maintenance and hull and mechanical repair ; supervise and perform tasks in procurement and issuance of supplies and repair parts ; instruct personnel and enforce safety and security precautions ; prepare records and reports . An HT stationed on a tender or other auxiliary vessel or shore duty station , may perform far more tasks than listed here . HTs fabricate and repair all types of equipment and items . This expertise may include metal of all thicknesses with hand tools , welders and very large cutting , forming and shaping equipment . Having had other ratings such as molder , patternmaker , carpenter , pipefitter and others absorbed into the rating , HTs may be tasked with working with all types of materials . HT was and is a " jack of all trades " . HT was further enhanced with DC ( damage controlman - note the axe crossed with the hammer ) quite some time ago and then had this designation made independent again much later on . HT also included chemical , biological , radiological warfare defense and the overall operation and maintenance of marine sanitation devices . In keeping with those DC responsibilities HTs were and still are firemen , which is their designation when they are " striking for a rating " from E - 1 through E - 3 . HTs still take an active role in firefighting and may indeed be the " scene leader " in control of a firefighting team . Hull technicians are also known as " ship doctors " . HT is a source rating utilized by US Navy special operations , for example , Seals , SWCC , or 2nd class diver .
Zulu - class submarine The Soviet Navy ' s Project 611 ( NATO reporting name : Zulu class ) were one of the first Soviet post - war attack submarine s . They were roughly as capable as the American GUPPY fleet - boat conversions . They were a contemporary of the Whiskey class submarines and shared a similar sonar arrangement . Their design was influenced by the German Type XXI U - boat of the World War II era . Six were converted in 1956 to become the world ' s first ballistic missile submarine s , one armed with a single R - 11FM Scud missile and five others with two Scuds each . They were designated as Project AV 611 and received the NATO reporting name of Zulu V . The missiles were too long to be contained in the boat ' s hull , and extended into the enlarged sail . To be fired , the submarine had to surface and raise the missile out of the sail . Soviet submarine B - 67 successfully launched a missile on 16 September 1955 . The Zulus were the basis for the very successful Foxtrot class submarine , which lent their hull to the Golf class of ballistic missile submarine . Twenty - six boats were built overall , entering service from 1952 to 1957 , 8 of them in Leningrad and 18 in Severodvinsk . Most were converted to non - combat uses and eventually scrapped .
Marcus Vinicius ( consul 30 ) Marcus Vinicius ( c . 5 BC - 46 AD ) was a Roman consul and , as husband of Julia Livilla , grandson - in - law ( " progener " ) of the emperor Tiberius . He was the son and grandson of two consuls , Publius Vinicius ( consul 2 AD ) and Marcus Vinicius ( consul 19 BC ) . Life . Born at Cales in Campania , Vinicius started his senatorial career as quaestor in 20 AD . In the " Senatus Consultum de Cn . Pisone patre " , the quaestor Vinicius is listed among the senators that were present when this decree was written . In 30 AD , Vinicius reached the consulship , which he held with L . Cassius Longinus . In the same year , Velleius Paterculus published his " Histories " , which he dedicated to M . Vinicius . In 33 AD , Tiberius selected him as the husband for Julia Livilla , the youngest daughter of Germanicus . On that occasion , Tacitus describes Vinicius as " mild in character and an elaborate orator . " From 38 - 39 AD , Vinicius governed the Roman province of Asia as proconsul ; two years earlier , he had been appointed to a committee that was supposed to estimate the damages caused by a fire on the Aventine hill . Vinicius was involved in the assassination of the emperor Caligula and , for a short time , even tried to succeed to the throne . After Claudius became emperor , Vinicius accompanied him during the conquest of Britain in 43 AD and was awarded the ornamenta triumphalia . In 45 AD , he was honored with the rare distinction of a second consulship . He held the office , however , only from January 1 until March 1 . His colleague that year was Titus Statilius Taurus Corvinus . At Messalina ' s instigation , Vinicius was killed in 46 AD . He nevertheless received a state funeral .
5th Bengal European Cavalry The 5th Bengal European Cavalry was a cavalry regiment of the British East India Company , created in 1858 and disbanded in 1859 .

Navy 1 November 1941 in accordance with Executive Order 8929 . Until 1 January 1946 she served as a coastal buoy tender in the Hampton Roads area . Executive Order No . 9666 dated 28 December 1945 returned " Mistletoe " to the Treasury Department . In 1966 she was redesignated WLM ‑ 237 . She continued coastal buoy tender operations out of Gloucester City and Portsmouth into 1969 .
152 mm howitzer M1910 The 152 mm howitzer Model 1910 Schneider or , more properly , " 6 dm polevaja gaubitsa sistemy Schneidera " as it was designated in Tsarist times , was a French howitzer designed by Schneider et Cie . It was used by the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union during World War I , the Russo - Polish War and the Russian Civil War . Finland captured nine during the Finnish Civil War , but didn ' t use them during that conflict . They did see combat during the Winter War and the Continuation War . Description . The " 152 mm howitzer Model 1910 Schneider " was a conventional design for its time . It used a box carriage with wooden wheels , a gun shield to protect the crew and a hydro - pneumatic recoil system mounted under the barrel . It used an interrupted - screw breech with separate - loading ammunition ; the shell being loaded first followed by the proper amount of propellant in a brass cartridge case . History and use . Schneider designed the howitzer to meet an Imperial Russian specification and it was accepted as the " Model 1910 Schneider " to distinguish it from the Krupp design also bought that same year . It was manufactured by the Putilov Factory and the Perm Artillery Factory . It was used on the Eastern Front during World War I and fought in the Russo - Polish War and the Russian Civil War . Surviving examples were upgraded in the Thirties with a new carriage with pneumatic tires as the " 152 mm gaubitsa obr . 1910 / 30 " . Finnish weapons were used for training before the Winter War began , but were issued to " Heavy Artillery Battalion 4 " during the war . During the Continuation War they served with " Heavy Artillery Battalion 30 " although they were withdrawn relatively quickly because they were worn out and stored until 1966 against future need . When World War I broke out this was the most modern howitzer design that France had available so it was rebarreled in , the standard French caliber , mounted on the carriage and recoil system of the " Canon de 105 modèle 1913 " , which was itself modified from the carriage of the Russian " 152 mm howitzer Model 1910 " . It was accepted into service in 1915 as the " Canon de 155 C modèle 1915 Schneider "
9K111 Fagot The 9K111 " Fagot " ( ; English meaning of the word : " bassoon " ) is a SACLOS wire - guided anti - tank missile system of the Soviet Union . " 9M111 " is the GRAU designation of the missile . Its NATO reporting name is AT - 4 Spigot . Development . The 9K111 Fagot was developed by the Tula Machinery Design Bureau ( Tula KBP ) . Development began in 1962 with the aim of producing the next generation of SACLOS ATGMs , for use in both the man portable role and the tank destroyer role . The 9K111 Fagot was developed alongside the 9M113 Konkurs ; both missiles use similar technology – only differing in size - and can use the same launchers . The missile entered service in 1970 . History . The anti - tank platoon of a Soviet BTR equipped motor rifle battalion had two ATGM squads , each squad with two 9K111 Fagot teams . The team consisted of 3 men - the gunner carries the 9P135 launcher and tripod as a back pack - the other two men carry two launch tubes each . The men also carry assault rifles , but do not carry a RPG - because , unlike the earlier missiles , there is only a small deadzone inside which the missile cannot engage the target . In addition to the four missiles the team carries , they normally have a BTR with an extra 8 missiles . It can also be deployed from the BMP - 1P , BMD - 1P , BTR - D and UAZ - 469 . Description . The missile is stored and carried in a container / launch tube . It is fired from the 9P135 launcher post - a simple tripod . A 9S451 guidance box is fitted to the tripod - with the missile sitting just above . The 9Sh119 sight is fitted to the left side ( from the gunners POV ) . The complete launcher system weighs 22 . 5 kg . The gunner lays prone while firing . The system can engage moving targets , provided that they are travelling at less than 60 km / h . The launcher post can traverse through 360 degrees horizontally , and + / - 20 degrees in elevation . The sight has a magnification of 10x and a 5 degree field of view . Up to 3 missiles a minute can be fired from a launcher post . The system uses a gas generator to push the missile out of the launch tube - the gas also exits from the rear of the launch tube in a similar manner to a recoilless rifle . The missile leaves the launch tube at 80 m / s . It is quickly accelerated to 186 m / s by its solid fuel motor . This initial high speed reduces the deadzone of the missile , since it can be launched directly at the target , rather than in an upward arc . The launcher tracks the position of an incandescent infrared bulb on the back of the missile relative to the target - and transmits appropriate commands to the missile via a thin wire that trails behind the missile . The SACLOS guidance system has many benefits over MCLOS , with the accuracy of the system stated as 90 % in some sources , though its performance is probably comparable to the TOW or the later SACLOS versions of the 9K11 Malyutka .
Emma Holmes Emma Holmes was a resident of South Carolina who kept a diary during the American Civil War . This document has since been published as " The Diary of Miss Emma Holmes , 1861 - 1866 " by the Louisiana University Press . It is thought to be a historically significant document due to Emma ' s in - depth accounting of events occurring during the American Civil War . Biography . Miss Holmes was born in Charleston , South Carolina , the daughter of a wealthy planter . She was living in Charleston at the time of the 1861 attack on Fort Sumter that began the Civil War . As a Confederate , Miss Holmes ' writings reflected the early confidence of the Southern United States at the start of the war , but later turned to despair as the conflict grew closer to home . From February 13 , 1861 until April 7 , 1866 , Emma kept a detailed diary of life in Charleston , the affairs of her family and the swirl of history around her . Through that diary a day - to - day narrative was produced of the life of the Holmes family and of Charleston in general . In the diary ’ s introduction , John F . Marszalek states in regard to Emma Holmes : The diary provides a portrait of various members of the Holmes family and their actions during the war period . For instance , on March 18 , 1861 Emma reported that " Uncle Edward ( Holmes ) , who was then in Washington , had written to General ( Winfield ) Scott asking if Fort Sumter really was to be given up , and was answered in the affirmative . " Isaac Edward Holmes , who is referred to in this passage , was an 1815 graduate of Yale University and a Congressman from South Carolina from 1838 to 1850 . When secession came , he went to Washington and conferred with Secretary of State William Seward , among others , in an effort to maintain peace . After the war , he was a member of a South Carolina delegation that went to Washington to negotiate with the administration of President Andrew Johnson . A subsequent diary entry , on March 20 , 1861 , reported that , " A letter has been received from Uncle Edward , saying he has seen ( Gen . Winfield ) Scott , who assured him there would be no collision between the two forces but never even mentioned Fort Sumter . " Many subsequent diary entries made reference to visits from and meals with Uncle Edward after his return from Washington , with his analysis of troop movements around Washington . The first part of the diary , while outlining war preparation and the early part of the war , also presented a fascinating picture of life in the antebellum South . On March 31 , 1862 , Emma reported that " We were surprised by the arrival before breakfast of cousin Wilmot ( De Saussure ) and Governor ( Francis ) Pickens , " who came by to take the family to view fortifications around the city . The next day , on April 1 , 1862 , she wrote , On the following day , the entry advised that , Another entry , on July 16 , 1861 , described a house slave who evidently killed a neighbor ’ s infant child . Emma wondered , " what was the cause of this act , we cannot imagine . " Earlier , on November 9 , 1862 , Miss Holmes reported ,

In it , he focuses particularly on the strategic behavior of individual warriors . Popular culture . For more information on Yamamoto Kansuke , see People of the Sengoku period in popular culture .
Curtiss XBTC The Curtiss XBTC was an experimental single - seat , single - engine torpedo bomber aircraft developed during World War II . Design and development . The Curtiss XBTC - 1 ( Model 96 ) was a low - wing monoplane with retractable tailwheel landing gear which used a 2 , 200 hp ( 1 , 641 kW ) Wright R - 3350 radial engine . It was entered in a 1943 United States Navy competition against the Douglas XBT2D - 1 , Martin XBTM - 1 Mauler , and Kaiser - Fleetwings XBTK - 1 . The BTC - 2 powered by a Pratt & Whitney R - 4360 engine , was given a higher priority due to problems with the Wright engine , but despite its power and " first - class performance and weapon - carrying capacity " , it lost the competition to the XBT2D - 1 ( redesignated as the AD - 1 Skyraider ) and the BTM - 1 ( similarly redesignated AM - 1 ) Mauler , which had already been built . Two XBTC - 2s were built , each having a different wing . The " Model A " had a standard wing and flaps ; the " Model B " featured a full span Duplex flap wing with a straight trailing edge and a swept - back leading edge . Both had the 3 , 000 hp ( 2 , 237 kW ) Pratt & Whitney XR - 4360 - 8A equipped with contra - rotating propellers . The planes were delivered to the Naval Air Test Center at Naval Air Station Patuxent River , Maryland , in July 1946 . One plane crashed in February 1947 the other in August 1947 . The United States Army Air Forces assigned the designation A - 40 to a proposed ' de - navalized ' version of the XBTC ; however , the USAAF decided not to acquire any further single - engine attack aircraft and the project was cancelled .

Ridge castle A ridge castle is a term derived from the German word " Kammburg " for a medieval fortification built on a ridge or the crest of mountain or hill chain . Ridge castle s were not a common type of fortification . Whilst castles of this type were relatively well protected , they had the disadvantage that they could be attacked from two sides . For better protection , several such castles could be built in close proximity to one another .
