Jean Martinet Jean Martinet ( died 1672 ) was a French lieutenant - colonel and Inspector General , and one of the first great drill masters of modern times . Martinet served during the reign of Louis XIV and made way to French conquest in the Holy Roman Empire . He was a severe drillmaster , which made him unpopular among his troops . Martinet revolutionized the early modern army by instituting a standardized system capable of turning raw recruits into a disciplined fighting force , thereby eliminating the mercenaries and soldiers - of - fortune who had been the mainstays of earlier armies . He also introduced the bayonet into the French army and the depot system , which put a stop to the army feeding off the enemy land , making war more humane . The English word martinet derives from the general ' s last name . History records that Martinet was eventually killed by friendly fire while leading an infantry assault at the siege of Duisburg .

Herman Wirth Herman Wirth ( alternatively referred to as Herman Wirth Roeper Bosch , or Herman Felix Wirth or Herman " n " ) ( 6 May 1885 Utrecht – 16 February 1981 , Kusel ) was a Dutch - German lay historian and scholar of ancient religions and symbols . Wirth served as the leader of the Nazi research division Ahnenerbe until 1937 when he left the group entirely , succeeded by Walter Wüst . Since his works generally supported the historical folk religion of Germany , and not the state of Nazi Germany or the goals of Hitler ' s regime , he was forced into exile along with other German mystics that did not support National Socialism . Wirth claimed that civilization is a curse that only a simpler way of life , as documented in archaeological findings and historical records , could lift . He has been criticized for romantic nationalism and Germanomania . He was also criticized by German scholars of his time , like Bolko von Richthofen , Gerhard Gloege , Arthur Hübner and Karl Hermann Jacob Friesen , for gullibly refusing to accept the scientific evidence that proved " Ura Linda chronicle " ( a supposedly 6th - 1st century BC chronicle of a Frisian family which he translated ) a forgery .

Type 74 Nana - yon The is a main battle tank ( MBT ) of the Japan Ground Self - Defense Force ( JGSDF ) . It was built by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries as a replacement for the earlier Type 61 . It was based on the best features of a number of contemporary designs , placing it in the same class as the US M60 Patton or German Leopard 1 . Like these designs , it mounts the M68 105 mm gun . The design did not enter widespread use until 1980 , by which point other western forces were starting the introduction of much more capable designs . History . The JGSDF started studies on a new tank design with Mitsubishi in 1962 , as it was realized that the Type 61 would not be able to defeat the latest Soviet designs like the T - 62 . Features from several designs were incorporated , including the controllable suspension of the MBT - 70 , the rolled steel hull of the Leopard 1 , and the M68 . Features unique to the design included a rotating cupola for the commander , and a new autoloader for the main gun . The design was finalized in 1964 and various test rigs were built between 1964 and 1967 . The first prototype , designated STB - 1 , was delivered in late 1968 and underwent a number of modifications until 1969 . The autoloader proved too complex and expensive , and was removed , additionally the remote controlled anti - aircraft machine gun was removed . The design of the turret was also changed , becoming longer . These changes resulted in the STB - 3 , which was delivered in 1971 . The final prototype designated STB - 6 was delivered in 1973 . Production finally started as the Type 74 in September 1975 , with 225 being delivered by January 1980 . Production ended in 1989 , with total production running to 893 examples . In service the tanks were updated with the addition of infra - red imagers ( not image intensifier s ) for the commander and gunner , and a laser rangefinder in the commander ' s cupola . The gunner ' s position included a digital fire control computer , fed range data from the commander ' s range finder . Rounds for the main gun were upgraded from HEP to APFSDS and HEAT - MP . The Type 74 was generally outdated even before it entered service . The Type 90 was to have replaced it outright , but with the ending of the Cold War these plans were scaled back . In 1993 four Type 74 ' s were improved to the new Type 74 Kai ( 改 ) [ Type 74 mod G ( G型 ) ] standard , adding a passive infrared camera , side skirts , and so on . The upgrade proved to be extremely expensive , and the program was dropped . Operators . - 893 produced between September 1975 and 1989 , with 225 being delivered by January 1980 . 822 in service in 1990 , 870 in service in 1995 and 2000 , 700 in service in 2006 . See also .
