Aristodemus of Sparta Aristodemus ( ) was a Spartan warrior , one of the many sent to the Battle of Thermopylae . He was one of only two Spartan survivors to survive , as he was not present at the last stand . Along with a comrade , Eurytus , Aristodemus was stricken with an ophthalmic disease ( they were " ὀφθαλμιῶντες " as Herodotus wrote ) , causing King Leonidas to order the two to return home before the battle , but Eurytus turned back , though blind , and met his end charging into the fray . The Greek historian Herodotus believed that had both Aristodemus and Eurytus returned alive , or had Aristodemus alone been ill and excused from combat , the Spartans would have ascribed no blame to Aristodemus . However , because Eurytus did turn back and died in combat , Aristodemus was regarded as a coward and subjected to humiliation and disgrace at the hands of his compatriots ; in the words of Herodotus , " no man would give him a light for his fire or speak to him ; he was called Aristodemus the Coward . " The other survivor of the Three Hundred was a man named Pantites , who had been sent by Leonidas on an embassy to Thessaly . He failed to return to Thermopylae in time for the battle , and on finding himself in disgrace in Sparta , hanged himself . Plataea . At the Battle of Plataea , Aristodemus fought with such fury that the Spartans regarded him as having redeemed himself . Although they removed the black mark against his name , they would not award him any special honors for his valour because he had fought with recklessness ; the Spartans having regarded as more valorous those who fought while still wishing to live . Aristodemus charged , berserker - like , out of the phalanx and killed several Persians on his own before dying . In popular culture . A character named Dilios appears in and partly narrates Frank Miller ' s 1998 graphic novel " 300 " , which retells the events of the Battle of Thermopylae . In the 2007 movie adaptation of the same name , Dilios is portrayed by David Wenham . Unlike Aristodemus , Dilios is not ordered home because of infection , although he does lose an eye in combat . It was so that he can use his oratorial skills to tell the story of his comrades in order to inspire the rest of Sparta , and then all of Greece . As such , he faces no prejudice from his comrades on his return , and is later seen leading the Spartan army into battle at Plataea .

Battle of Krithia Vineyard The Battle of Krithia Vineyard was intended as a minor British action at Helles on the Gallipoli peninsula to divert attention from the imminent launch of the August Offensive . Instead , the British commander , Brigadier General H . E . Street , mounted a futile and bloody series of attacks that in the end gained a small patch of ground known as " The Vineyard " . Prelude . The original commander of the British VIII Corps at Helles , Lieutenant General Aylmer Hunter - Weston had departed the peninsula in July , following the last Helles offensive — the Battle of Gully Ravine . His replacement , Lieutenant General Francis Davies , arrived in early August but had not yet assumed command of the corps when a series of diversions were due to be launched from Anzac and Helles to divert Ottoman ' s attention from the planned landing at Suvla and break out from Anzac . Consequently , the Helles diversion was planned and conducted by the VIII Corps ' chief of staff , General Street , who proved himself an able student of Hunter - Weston ' s battle strategy . The battle . Due to the shortage of artillery , the attack was split into two parts with the 88th Brigade of the British 29th Division attacking on the afternoon of 6 August while two brigades of the 42nd Division would attack the following day . They were facing 4 Ottoman divisions , 3 of them fresh , and 2 more were in reserve . The 88th Brigade ' s attack managed to capture some Ottoman trenches which were recaptured by the Ottoman 30th Regiment during a counter - attack . The British attacked again and once more captured some trenches . The Ottomans counter - attacked again and drove them out . The British failed to hold any ground and the 88th Brigade was effectively destroyed as a fighting force . Around 9 . 40am on the morning of 7 August the 42nd Division attacked on the right of the 88th Brigade ' s sector . The 127th Brigade managed to break through the line held by the Ottoman 13th Division but were forced back by an Ottoman counter - attack . The Ottomans counter - attacked repeatedly from 7 August to 9 August and the fighting in the area continued until 13 August when it finally subsided . However , this sector of the Helles front would remain one of the busiest and most violent for the remainder of the campaign . Aftermath . Two Victoria Cross es were awarded to men of the 42nd Division during the fighting at Krithia Vineyard . The British casualties in the first 24 hours of fighting , covering the original attacks of the 88th Brigade and the two brigades of the 42nd Division , were 3 , 469 . The total British casualties for the duration of the battle were probably in excess of 4 , 000 > . The Ottoman casualties for the period of the battle were estimated to be around 7 , 000 . As for the other diversion at Lone Pine , the attack failed to fulfil its goal of tying down the Ottoman reinforcements away from the main offensive . As early as the morning of 7 August , regiments were being dispatched from Helles to the main front in the Sari Bair range .
Volunteers of Ireland The Volunteers of Ireland ( aka 2nd American Regiment and the 105th Regiment of Foot ) was a British provincial military unit during the American Revolutionary War which was added to the British regular army . It was formed by Francis Rawdon - Hastings , an Irish lord who had joined the British army and risen through the officer ranks , Rawdon had been given permission to form a British regiment from Irishmen serving in other provincial units in the Thirteen Colonies . The unit was raised in Philadelphia in the fall of 1777 and went to New York with the army in April 1778 . It was sent to Charleston , South Carolina in December 1779 as part of a force to augment the attack on that port city . The regiment was placed on the American establishment as the 2nd American Regiment on May 2 , 1779 . Following Charleston , the regiment helped win the Battle of Camden ( 1780 ) , where Sergeant Thomas Hudson received a decoration for heroism ; one of only two decorations for heroism given throughout the war for the British Army . The regiment was the primary unit in the Battle of Hobkirk ' s Hill , as well as the relief of Fort 96 . It remained in South Carolina , until news of the surrender of General Lord Cornwallis at Yorktown was received . It was removed from South Carolina , and taken by ship to New York . The unit was put on the British establishment as the 105th Regiment of Foot on December 25 , 1782 . The soldiers of the Volunteers of Ireland were mustered out in New York City , and taken by ship to Nova Scotia . This was in response to the policy of resettlement for British colonists displaced from their lands during the war , coupled with the fact that the vast majority of soldiers were Irish , and England had no desire to return Irish emigrants back to England or Ireland , as it needed new settlers in Canada . It was also much cheaper to move them to Canada than to bring them to England . The regiment was placed in a cadre status , and officially " moved " to England in April 1783 . Today one can find communities with the name " Rawdon " established by former soldiers of the regiment , and named after their commanding officer . The regiment should not be confused with the contemporaneous Irish Volunteers , an autonomous militia that supported the Irish Patriot Party in the 1770s and 1780s .
Battle of Slivice The Battle of Slivice was the last large World War II battle in the area of the Czech lands . During 11 – 12 May 1945 , German troops , trying to surrender to nearby American troops , defended themselves against local partisan s and the Soviet Army . The Germans eventually capitulated during early hours of May 12 . About 6 , 000 men were captured by the Soviet troops . On 7 May 1945 , all German forces were ordered to remain in their positions and surrender . Field Marshal Ferdinand Schörner , however , the commander of the Army Group Centre deployed in Bohemia , ordered his units to force their way westwards in order to surrender to American forces . The units reached the agreed demarcation line in western Bohemia and stopped there . Since the Soviet Army was still days away from the demarcation line , the partisans tried , mostly unsuccessfully , to stop the Germans , who responded with reprisals against the local population . On several occasions , Russian Liberation Army unitsalso trying to reach the Americansskirmished with the Germans . On 9 May , a large formation of German troops reached the area between villages Milín , Slivice and Čimelice , near the demarcation line . Among them were parts of Kampfgruppe Wallenstein and the 2nd SS Panzer Division ' s 4th SS Panzergrenadier Regiment ; the formation was commanded by SS - Gruppenführer and General - Leutnant of the Waffen - SS Karl Friedrich von Pückler - Burghauß . The soldiers were accompanied by fleeing German civilians . Because the road toward the Americans was blocked by local resistance units , von Pückler - Burghauß ordered the establishment of defensive lines . After May 8 , the Americans returned any soldiers attempting to surrender to the Soviet side . On 11 May , partisan groups led by Soviet officer Yevgeniy Antonovich Olesenski attempted to storm the Germans and were decimated . Soviet Army units arrived that afternoon and attacked the Germans . The attack started with a heavy artillery and rocket bombardment . The Soviet bombardment was supported by 4th Armored Division of the U . S . Third Army ' s XII Corps . Later , troops from the 1st , 2nd and 4th Ukrainian Front s attacked the German positions . During the night , the defense collapsed and , at around 03 : 00 , General von Pückler - Burghauß signed the capitulation . The American negotiators refused to take the General and his family , so , fearing revenge from the Russians for military crimes executed by himself while he served as Waffen - SS commander in occupied USSR , von Pückler - Burghauß shot himself . About 6 , 000 soldiers and a large number of vehicles were captured . In 1970 , a memorial to the battle , designed by Václav Hilský , was unveiled in Slivice . Czech military history clubs , the Museum in Příbram and the Army of the Czech Republic have organized reenactments of the battle since 2001 .

Lippisch P . 15 The Lippisch P . 15 was a proposed World War II German fighter aircraft . Development . Alexander Lippisch designed it after inspecting the new Heinkel He 162 which he thought could be improved . The redesigned He 162 composed of the nose section of the Heinkel 162 , the wings and tail of the Me 163C , a newly designed rear fuselage , and landing gear adapted from the Bf 109 . Power was to be supplied by a single Heinkel HeS 011 A turbojet contained within the rear fuselage , which was fed by two intakes buried in the wing roots . Never leaving the drawing board , the design could well have made a suitable jet fighter , but Lippisch was never considered a credible aircraft engineer of the likes of Willy Messerschmitt or Kurt Tank , which coupled with the worsening war situation doomed all of his late war projects to fail .
