It was manufactured mainly by the Obukhov State Plant ( OSP ) in St . Petersburg , as well as under licence by Vickers Limited in Great Britain . The gun was used as medium artillery on several Russian dreadnoughts and as main artillery on cruisers , as well as coastal artillery . It was succeeded by the 130 mm / 50 B13 Pattern 1936 naval gun , which became the standard destroyer gun of the Soviet Navy during World War II . History . In 1911 OSP received an order to design a semi - automatic 130 mm / 60 caliber naval gun for the Main Shipping Administration . The order asked for two prototypes , one for cartridges , one for rounds . On 12 July 1912 the cartrigde - version with a 55 caliber barrel was approved . In September 1912 it was decided to go with the hydro - spring rather than the hydro - pneumatic recoil system . Earlier an OSP designed semi - automatic breech mechanism was rejected in favor of a Vickers design . In 1913 an initial order of 471 guns was placed with OSP . By 1 January 1917 143 guns had been delivered , with 96 due until the end of that year . The remaining 282 guns were supposed to be delivered in 1918 . The first charge of guns was used to equipped the cruiser " Svetlana " and the " Imperatritsa Mariya " - class battleships of the Black Sea Fleet . Another order of 100 guns was placed in 1913 with Vickers Ltd . , of which 24 were ready for delivery by 16 September 1914 . Of these 7 were shipped to Arkhangelsk in October 1914 . A further 12 guns destined for Russian cruiser " Varyag " were delivered to Russia on the same route as the repairs of " Varyag " were delayed , where they were put to the defense of Saaremaa island . The Soviet Navy retained the 130mm / 55 Pattern 1913 naval gun and produced additional guns under the designation B - 7 , as the OSP had been renamed Works No . 232 " Bolshevik " in 1922 . In 1923 , 12 guns had been placed in four coastal batteries , one in Odessa and three along the Caucasian coast . In 1930 a minor modernizations were made to a few guns at the " Bolshevik " works , improving the loading mechanism and enhancing elevation to + 40° .

United Nations Mission in Ethiopia and Eritrea The United Nations Mission in Ethiopia and Eritrea ( UNMEE ) was established by the United Nations Security Council in July 2000 to monitor a ceasefire in the border war that began in 1998 between Ethiopia and Eritrea . The mission was formally abandoned in July 2008 after experiencing serious difficulties in sustaining its troops after fuel stoppages and the consideration of remaining options . History . On July 31 , 2000 , the Security Council adopted Resolution 1312 established UNMEE . The mission was in place in order to formally mark the border between the two countries . The border followed the route as declared by an international commission in The Hague but Ethiopia refused to accept the ruling , despite originally agreeing to binding arbitration . The mission maintained headquarters in Asmara ( Eritrea ) , and Addis Ababa ( Ethiopia ) , and consisted of 1 , 676 military personnel , amid high tensions between the two countries . About 1 , 500 of these peacekeepers were from the Indian Army . In addition , there were about 147 international civilians , 202 local civilians and 67 UN Volunteers . Their area of responsibility was a buffer zone 25 kilometers ( 15 miles ) wide on the Eritrean side of the Ethiopian - Eritrean border . There have been recorded 20 fatalities : 13 military personnel , 3 international civilian personnel and 4 local civilian personnel . The approved budget for the mission between 1 July 2007 and 30 June 2008 was $ 118 . 99 million . The border between Ethiopia and Eritrea has remained closed and thousands of people live in refugee camps while perhaps a million people remain displaced . In October 2005 , the Eritrean government restricted UNMEE helicopter flights along the border and demanded the reduction of the UNMEE force by 300 staffers . Eritrea also restricted movement of ground patrols inside the buffer zone . United Nations Security Council Resolution 1640 in November 2005 threatened sanctions on both parties if there was no resolution . The mission was ended per 31 July 2008 with a UNSC resolution adopted on 30 July 2008 . Peacekeepers had been driven from the border zone by Eritrea by February 2008 , and Ethiopia had refused to accept a binding International Court of Justice ruling on the border issue ; there are fears that this may set a precedent to show that a country can force out UN peacekeepers . Analysts also fear a new war may erupt between Ethiopia and Eritrea over the border . Eritrea has tried to allay fears over a new war . Staff and forces . On 30 November 2007 , UNMEE had a total of 1 , 676 military personnel , including 1 , 464 troops and 212 military observers , supported by 147 international civilians , 202 local civilians and 67 UN Volunteers .

ERDLator The ERDLator was a field water treatment device developed during World War II at the U . S . Army ' s United States Army Engineer Research and Development Laboratory at Ft . Belvoir , Virginia . Technically named the " Water Purification Unit , Van - Type , Body Mounted , Electric Driven " , the acronym was incorporated into the name of the purification device itself , creating the name by which it was most widely known , ERDLator , pronounced " erd - a - later " . The device was introduced into the field as a van - type body - mounted mobile unit , and proved vitally important to the operational effectiveness of deployed units under harsh field conditions , providing not only the water needed for survival , but clean potable water for staying healthy . This passage from a description of the United States Marine Corps Engineer Battalion illustrates the ERDLator ' s significance : The unit was replaced in the 1979 by the Reverse Osmosis Water Purification Unit ( ROWPU ) ( " Row - pew " ) , also developed by a U . S . Army laboratory . Developing water purification systems for military use has led to technological breakthroughs which have benefited the civilian community ; the ERDLator was evaluated for technology transfer to the civilian sector for the decontamination of water polluted with asbestos fibers .

The Rouse The Rouse is a bugle call most often associated with the military in Commonwealth countries . It is commonly played following The Last Post at military services , and is often mistakenly referred to as Reveille . Despite often being referred to by the name " Reveille " , " The Rouse " is actually a separate piece of music from the traditional Reveille . " The Rouse " was traditionally played following the " Reveille " , which was a bugle call played in the morning to wake soldiers up . " The Rouse " would be played to get soldiers out of bed . The use of both the Last Post and the Rouse at cenotaph ceremonies in the Commonwealth nations essentially turns the period of silence into a ritualized night vigil . The selection of the Rouse in the ceremony as assembled in the aftermath of the First World War also carries a subtle Christian reference to the Judgement Day and the implied hope that there will be one day when the living and the dead arise together . Because of the close association between the two tunes , The Rouse is commonly mistaken for Reveille , and has taken on many of the functions " Reveille " traditionally held in remembrance ceremonies ( such as those on Remembrance Day ) due to its shorter length and the ease with which it can be played . Music . Being bugle music , both " Rouse " and " Reveille " are composed entirely from the written notes of the C Major triad ( i . e . C , E , and G ) , these being the only notes available on the instrument .
MBT LAW The Main Battle Tank and Light Anti - tank Weapon ( MBT LAW ) , also known as the NLAW , is a Swedish short - range fire - and - forget anti - tank missile launcher . Designed for use by infantry , the MBT LAW is shoulder fired and disposable , firing just once before being needed to be disposed of . It is currently in use with the militaries of the United Kingdom , Finland , Luxembourg , and Sweden . Overview . The MBT LAW was developed by Saab Bofors Dynamics in the early 2000s , using technology derived from the BILL 2 ( warhead and guidance ) , and AT4 CS ( confined space capability ) systems . It is a soft - launch system , allowing it to be used by infantry from within an enclosed space . In this system , the rocket is first launched out of launcher using a low powered ignition . After the rocket travels several meters into flight , its main rocket ignition occurs which propels to rocket from there on , to the target . The portable , short range , fire - and - forget system entered service in 2009 , as the NLAW ( Next Generation Light Anti - tank Weapon ) , to replace the British Army ' s existing LAW 80 system that had reached its obsolescence , as well as the ILAW ( AT4 CS ) ( Interim Lightweight Anti - tank Weapon ) which was in deployment as a substitute for the period in which the MBT - LAW had yet to be deployed . Deliveries began in December 2008 .

Army of the Holy War The Army of the Holy War or Holy War Army ( Arabic : جيش الجهاد المقدس ; " Jaysh al - Jihad al - Muqaddas " ) was a Palestinian Arab irregular force in the 1947 - 48 Palestinian civil war led by Abd al - Qadir al - Husayni and Hasan Salama . The force has been described as Husayni ' s " personal " army . The Arab League set up the Arab Salvation Army ( " Jaysh al - Inqadh al - Arabi " ) as a counter to the Army of the Holy War and as part of its plan to contain the Palestinian Arab leadership and to prevent it from exercising independent political or military options , although in practice the Arab governments prevented thousands of volunteers from joining either force . Abd al - Qadir al - Husayni arrived in the Jerusalem sector in December 1947 and by March 1948 had about 128 men . He established his headquarters at Bir Zeit and started to conduct a blockade of Jerusalem by attacking the Jewish convoys to the city . Hasan Salama , with 950 men of the " Jihad " and 228 irregulars , took responsibility for the operations in the Lydda and Ramle sectors , at the entry of the Tel - Aviv - Jerusalem road . The Army of the Holy War had over 50 , 000 Palestinian Arabs available for local defense but a force of only 5 , 000 to 10 , 000 , both foreign fighters from Arab states and Palestinian Arab militiamen , available to be sent where needed during the Israel war of Independence . ( 12 ) Husayni was killed during hand - to - hand fighting for control of Qastal Hill on the Tel Aviv - Jerusalem road , on 8 April 1948 . His forces captured Qastal from the Haganah , which had occupied the village at the start of Operation Nachshon six days earlier with a force of about 100 men . They retreated to the Jewish settlement of Motza . Palmach troops recaptured the village on the night of 8 – 9 April ; most of the houses were blown up and the hill became a command post . Husayni ' s death was a factor in the loss of morale among his forces . When the All - Palestine Government was formed on 22 September 1948 , during the 1948 Arab - Israeli War , it revived the Holy War Army , with the declared aim of " liberating Palestine . " However , the Government had no money of its own , and operated only under the supervision of Egypt , and was generally ineffective . October 1948 , Jordan gave an order to the Arab Legion to surround , and forcibly disarm , various units of the Holy War Army . Notes . 12 . Dupuy ( 1978 ) p 41 13 . 13 .
