Fleet captain Fleet captain is a rare military title that may be bestowed upon senior naval captains for a variety of reasons , the most common of which is to temporarily take command of more than one vessel . The rank can , therefore , be interpreted as a close equivalent to commodore or to the 19th century rank of flag officer . The main distinction of a fleet captain is that normally the title is strictly temporary for the duration of a single mission . Historical usage . Fleet captain has appeared in the navies of Germany ( " Flottenkapitän " ) and the United Kingdom as an unofficial title dating back to the 18th century . In the Royal Navy , during the 18th and 19th centuries , an admiral ' s flagship might also have a " captain of the fleet " , who would be ranked between the admiral and the ship ' s captain ( or " flag captain " ) . The " captain of the fleet " would be listed as the ship ' s " first captain " and would serve as the admiral ' s chief - of staff . The " flag captain " would be listed as the ship ' s " second captain " and retain actual command of the vessel . Science fiction . Fleet captain has appeared in several science fiction sources , the most notable of which is Star Trek . As a Starfleet officer rank , there have only been two fleet captains shown in the entirety of Star Trek , both from " " : Garth of Izar and Christopher Pike .
Battle of Saranda The Battle of Saranda took place in southern Albania between the Italians and the Greeks in December , 1940 , during the Greco - Italian War in World War II . The Italians had attempted an invasion of Greece , but soon they had been thrown back . The battle was won by the Greeks who captured the port of Sarandë ( named by Fascist Italy " Porto Eda " ) . Immediately after the battle , Italian Chief of Staff , Pietro Badoglio , resigned from his post . The Greeks occupied part of Northern Epirus ( part of southern Albania ) , which was already a matter of territorial dispute between Albania and Greece .
Shot trap Shot traps are locations on the exterior of an armored vehicle where impacting shells are deflected to a weaker or vulnerable point in the armor , or simply guided to hit the vehicle , instead of bouncing or skimming off . Shot traps are undesirable features in armored vehicle design . Initial turret design of the Tiger II had a curved mantlet in the front . This acted as a shot trap by deflecting incoming shots that hit the lower part of the mantlet downwards towards the thinner hull roof armour , or into the turret ring where the shell could potentially jam the traverse mechanism . A new design replaced the front curved mantlet with a flat armor plate sloped at 81 degrees . However , modern armour piercing rounds have very little tendency to be deflected , so shot traps are no longer a major concern of armoured vehicle design .
Battle of the Guadalupe Island ( 1595 ) The Battle of the Guadalupe Island , also known as the Battle of Guadalupe or The " career " of Don Pedro Tello de Guzmán , was a naval action that took place off Guadalupe Island ( French : " Guadeloupe " ) , Caribbean Sea , on November 8 , 1595 , between a Spanish force of five frigate s commanded by Don Pedro Tello de Guzmán and Don Gonzalo Méndez de Cancio ( who was appointed Admiral on August 19 , 1595 ) , and an English squadron of nine ships ( rear of Francis Drake ' s fleet ) , during the unsuccessful English military expedition of 1595 against Spain and their possessions , led by Sir Francis Drake himself , Sir John Hawkins and Sir Thomas Baskerville , as the context of the Anglo - Spanish War ( 1585 – 1604 ) .

Corporal Scott ' s military career began at Fort Slocum in 1908 in the Field Artillery branch of the US Army . Scott later cross - trained into the Signal Corps in 1911 . In July 1911 , Scott began suffering from a lengthy unknown illness and upon recovery was deemed unfit for his current duties and was forthwith transferred to College Park Flying Field . After arriving at his assignment , Scott discovered a penchant for mechanical engineering and was reassigned from his duties of releasing hot air balloon s to becoming chief mechanic for one of the Type - B Wright biplanes assigned to the Field . On September 27 , 1912 , Scott was promised a ride in one of Flying Field ' s airplanes by First Lieutenant Lewis C . Rockwell . Retired Captain Bernard Rome spoke with Corporal Scott the same day and noted that " He was in high spirits when I spoke to him , " and that , with regards to his flight the next day , " . . . Scott jokingly referred to himself as ' ballast ' . " Corporal Scott had secured the ride on the aircraft as opposed to what would normally be an officer ' s position because of his low weight — having never fully recovered from his illness of 1911 . The next day , Lieutenant Rockwell test - flew the plane alone to ensure proper functioning ; after reaching and assured that the aircraft was functioning properly , the Lieutenant landed and picked up Corporal Scott . The takeoff and flight itself were uneventful as the small craft flew at an altitude of for about ten minutes . However , when attempting to land the plane , Lieutenant Rockwell begin to develop problems with the engine ; the engine failed sufficiently to cause the airplane to lose its lift and crash soon thereafter . The crash that took both Corporal Scott ' s and Lieutenant Rockwell ' s lives was witnessed by over 300 people . On July 20 , 1917 , following the procedure for naming American military aviation fields after Airmen who died in service during " the experimental era " , the base now known as Scott Air Force Base , Illinois was officially designated Scott Field .
Runner ( soldier ) A runner was a soldier responsible for passing on messages between fronts during war . This was arguably the most dangerous job of all , since these soldiers obviously had to leave the safety of a trench , bunker or any other kind of shelter in order to move from one front to the other . One example is World War I , which was dominated by trench warfare . This necessitated lots of runners . Passing messages between the trenches was not possible without climbing up to ground level and running towards the other trench . While on the ground , the soldier was completely exposed to enemy lookouts , and it was commonplace for runners to die before reaching their destination . For the same reason , communication between fronts was very difficult during World War I , and the officers could not be sure that a message has reached its recipient unless the runner actually managed to return . Adolf Hitler was a runner for the German army during World War I , and he was wounded twice . Runners were often decorated for bravery , and Hitler was no exception , receiving both second class and first class Iron Cross during the war .
Alares Alares , in antiquity , are supposed to by some authors to have been a kind of militia or soldiery among the Romans ; so called from " ala " , a wing , because of their lightness and swiftness in combat . Others make them a people of Pannonia . Yet others , with more probability , take Alares for an adjective or epithet , and apply it to the Roman cavalry , because they were placed in the two wings , or " Alæ " of the Army .

Dodo zu Innhausen und Knyphausen Dodo Freiherr zu Innhausen und Knyphausen ( sometimes Knijphausen or Kniphausen ; 2 July 1583 – 11 January 1636 ) was a German professional soldier who saw extensive service in the Thirty Years ' War ( 1618 – 1648 ) , rising to the rank of Field Marshal in Swedish service in 1633 . Early career . Knyphausen was from Lütetsburg , East Frisia . He learnt his trade in Dutch service under Maurice of Orange , rising to the rank of captain by 1603 . He later served the Hanseatic League , then the Protestant Union . In the 1620s , with the Thirty Years ' War turning against the Protestants , Knyphausen had the misfortune to be repeatedly on the losing side , witnessing the defeats at the Battle of Höchst ( 1622 ) and the battle of Stadtlohn ( 1623 ) . After the latter battle he was accused of treason and even sentenced to death , only to be exonerated . He fought under Ernst von Mansfeld at the Battle of Dessau Bridge in 1626 , but was captured .

At the 1632 Battle of Lützen , where the Swedish king was killed , Knyphausen , now holding the rank of Major General , was third in command of the Swedish army and responsible for the entire second ( reserve ) line . At the height of the battle , and with the Swedish army close to panic as a result of the king ' s death and destruction of the Swedish infantry centre , Knyphausen played a large part in holding the Swedish army together for two crucial hours . The Swedish royal secretary Philipp Sattler wrote that Knyphausen had contributed greatly to the final victory , having " done the most to sustain the wavering battleline " . In January 1633 , as a reward for his service at Lützen , Knyphausen was appointed Field Marshal and commander - in - chief of all Swedish forces operating in Lower Saxony , an important side - theatre to the main Swedish operations in Southern Germany . In this role he served at the major Swedish victory at the Battle of Oldendorf in 1633 . From 1633 to 1634 he participated in an unsuccessful Siege of Hildesheim . At the minor Battle of Haselünne in early 1636 he was killed . A distant relative , Edzard zu Innhausen und Knyphausen ( 1827 – 1908 ) was a noted politician .

Damian of Tarsus Damian ( died 924 ) , known in Arabic as Damyanah and surnamed Ghulam Yazman ( " slave / page of Yazman " ) , was a Byzantine Greek convert to Islam , emir of Tarsus in 896 – 897 and one of the main leaders of naval raids against the Byzantine Empire in the early 10th century . Biography . Damian was a convert servant of the eunuch emir of Tarsus Yazman al - Khadim ( died 891 ) , who had recognized the overlordship of the Tulunids of Egypt under Ibn Tulun ' s son Khumarawaih . In 896 , Damian was named governor of Tarsus by the then - emir Ahmad ibn Tughan . Yusuf al - Baghmardi was his deputy and commander of the military forces of the region . Damian and al - Baghmardi , however , were ousted from Tarsus in March / April 897 by a revolt of the pro - Abbasid faction under a certain Raghib . In 900 , al - Tabari reports that Damian urged the Caliph al - Mu ' tadid to burn the fleet of Tarsus , of over 50 large ships , as a revenge for his ouster three years before , a fact which greatly debilitated Muslim naval power . Nevertheless , it was as an admiral that Damian most distinguished himself . In 896 or 901 , he sacked and plundered the port of Demetrias in Greece . Damian then participated in the campaign of 904 that wrested Egypt from the Tulunids and restored it to Abbasid control ; he led a fleet up the river Nile , raided its coasts , and prevented supplies for the Tulunid forces from being ferried over it . In 911 , he attacked Cyprus , which since the 7th century had been a neutralized Arab - Byzantine condominium , and ravaged it for four months because its inhabitants had assisted a Byzantine fleet under admiral Himerios in attacking the Caliphate ' s coasts the year before . Finally , in October 912 , along with the fellow - renegade Leo of Tripoli , he scored a crushing victory over Himerios off the island of Chios . In the summer of the same year , he is mentioned as accompanying the governor of the Cilician " thughur " , Rustum ibn Bardu , in an attack against the Byzantine frontier province of Lykandos and its Armenian governor Melias . Melias was besieged in his fortress , but the Arabs failed to take it . Damian died in 924 while leading an attack against the Byzantine fortress of Strobilos in the Cibyrrhaeot Theme . His death , along with the probable death of Leo of Tripoli the year before , brought the era of Muslim naval supremacy and of constant raids against the Byzantine coasts to an end .

Walter Göttsch Leutnant Walter Göttsch was a German World War I flying ace credited with 20 aerial victories . Early life and service . Walter Göttsch was born in Altour , Germany on 10 June 1896 . He volunteered for the German army on 1 July 1915 . He was originally assigned to FA 33 to fly artillery cooperation missions in Flanders as a Vizefeldwebel . Service as a fighter pilot . After training as a fighter pilot , Göttsch was assigned to Royal Prussian Jagdstaffel 8 on 10 September 1916 . On 4 November 1916 , he destroyed a Belgian observation balloon for his first victory . He then scored twice more before winning a momentous dogfight on 7 January 1917 ; his opponent that day was Thomas Mottershead , who won a posthumous Victoria Cross . Göttsch won a double victory on 1 February , but then was shot down and wounded in action for the first time two days later . Because of his wounding , he would not score again until 6 April 1917 . By 5 May , he had doubled his victory total to twelve . He was once again downed , probably by the observer of Harry G . E . Luchford ' s Royal Aircraft Factory FE . 2 d on 29 June . After this wounding , he did not win again until 17 July 1917 . By 16 September , he had pushed his tally to 17 , downing a Sopwith Camel that day . On 25 September , he fell under the guns of a Bristol F . 2 Fighter , wounded once again in the same combat that saw Rudolf Wendelmuth ' s downing . Göttsch returned to duty , but had no luck , being wounded for the fourth time on 25 November 1917 by James Dennis Payne . Command and death . Göttsch would not return to action until January 1918 . On 14 February , he was given command of Royal Prussian Jagdstaffel 19 . The new Staffelführer would score only twice before his end , with back to back triumphs on 31 March and 1 April . Göttsch was killed in action on 10 April 1918 over Gentelles , apparently by return fire from the observer in his final victim , although German accounts also claim he was hit by ground fire . His Fokker Dr . I triplane , marked with a swastika , fell behind British lines and was salvaged . Walter Göttsch ' s 20 victories included seven from 20 Squadron RAF ; the score of victories would also have qualified him for a Blue Max had he survived .
