Nagao agreed to grant his lord shelter and protection , but only under certain conditions . Norimasa was forced to name Nagao his heir , and to grant him the titles of ' Lord of Echigo ' and ' Kantō Kanrei ' . Nagao then changed his name to Uesugi , to reflect his inheritance of Norimasa ' s lineage ; he took the given name Terutora for a short time before choosing to be called Kenshin .
Hermann Kriebel Hermann Kriebel ( January 20 , 1876 in Germersheim - February 16 , 1941 in Munich ) was a retired lieutenant colonel and former Bavarian staff officer . He had fought with the Freikorps during the German Revolution of 1918 – 1919 and in 1923 became the military leader of the Kampfbund , the league of ' patriotic ' and fighting societies which included Adolf Hitler ' s Nazi party and SA ; the Oberland League ; and Ernst Röhm ' s Reichskriegflagge . Kriebel was , with Hitler and Erich Ludendorff the key figure in the 8 – 9 November 1923 " Beer Hall Putsch " and was convicted with Hitler in 1924 serving his sentence in the Landsberg prison just outside Munich . After his release from prison , he maintained his ties with the Nazi party and the Oberland League but did not benefit from Hitler ' s rise to power .

Anthemiolus Anthemiolus ( died ca . 471 ) was the son of the Western Roman Emperor Anthemius ( 467 – 472 ) and Marcia Euphemia , daughter of the Eastern Roman emperor Marcian . His name means " little Anthemius " and is a diminutive of his and his father ' s name Anthemius , in order to distinguish them both . His life is known only from the " Chronica Gallica of 511 " . He was sent by his father to Gaul with a powerful army , accompanied by three generals — Thorisarius , Everdingus , and Hermianus — in order to oppose the Visigoths then occupying Provence and threatening to conquer the Auvergne . He and his generals were defeated by the Visigothic king Euric near Arles and all four of them lost their lives . The " Chronica " , in entry 649 , states : Antimolus a patre Anthemio imperatore cum Thorisario , Everdingo et Hermiano com . stabuli Arelate directus est , quibus rex Euricus trans Rhodanum occurrit occisisque ducibus omnia vastavit According to the " Chronica " , this event falls between the succession of Euric ( 467 ) and the war between Anthemius and Ricimer ( 471 – 472 ) . It can probably be further narrowed to the period when Anthemius is known to have been organising a concerted effort to remove the Visigoths from Gaul between 468 and 471 , a period during which an army led by the Briton Riothamus was defeated near Déols . It is not impossible that Anthemiolus ' army was sent to reinforce Riothamus and that Euric defeated both forces in turn , probably in either 470 or 471 .

Blockade of Almeida In the Blockade of Almeida ( 14 April – 10 May 1811 ) the French garrison under Antoine François Brenier de Montmorand was surrounded by approximately 13 , 000 Anglo - Allied soldiers led by Sir Alexander Campbell , 1st Baronet and Sir William Erskine , 2nd Baronet . After a French relief attempt failed , Brenier and his troops broke out at night after blowing up portions of the fortress . To the fury of the British army commander Viscount Wellington , most of the French escaped due to their enemies ' fumbling and bad luck . The action took place during the Peninsular War portion of the Napoleonic Wars . Almeida , Portugal is located near the Spanish border about northeast of Lisbon . The town had been captured from a Portuguese garrison during the Siege of Almeida in 1810 . Background . After Marshal André Masséna ' s retreat from Portugal , the French installed a garrison of 1 , 400 men under Brennier in the fortress . These troops were blockaded in the town by forces under Arthur Wellesley , 1st Duke of Wellington . Since the Anglo - Portuguese Army had no heavy guns to breach the walls , they were forced to starve the garrison out . Because of this , this operation was technically a blockade rather than a siege . From 3 to 5 May 1811 , Masséna failed to relieve Almeida in the Battle of Fuentes de Onoro . During this time , the blockade was maintained by Major General William Erskine ' s 5th and Major General Alexander Campbell ' s 6th Divisions , plus Count Barbacena ' s 300 - man Portuguese cavalry brigade . Campbell guarded the south and west sides of the fortress with too many soldiers and placed his men too far from the city . Though instructed by Wellington to block the Barba del Puerco bridge on the afternoon of the 10th , Erskine neglected to forward the necessary orders in time . Escape . With great skill , Brenier slipped his men through the Anglo - Portuguese lines on the night of 10 – 11 May . The fortifications were rigged with explosives and blew up after the French cleared out . After overrunning a Portuguese outpost , Brenier headed northwest toward the Barba del Puerco bridge . Campbell and Brigadier General Denis Pack gave chase with some troops , but a British colonel whose regiment was stationed near the breakthrough failed to pursue . Another regiment arrived at the Barba del Puerco , but since the French had not gotten there yet , the unit marched to another location . The French were intercepted just as they reached the bridge and numbers of them were killed or captured . A total of 360 Frenchmen became casualties during the night . An unwise attempt by the 36th Foot Regiment to storm the bridge was repelled with 35 casualties by the French 31st Light Infantry Regiment from General of Division Jean Reynier ' s II Corps . An enraged Wellington later wrote ,
