USS Wissahickon ( SP - 852 ) The second USS " Wissahickon " ( SP - 852 ) , which also served as USS " SP - 852 " , was a United States Navy patrol vessel in commission from 1917 to 1918 . Construction and early civilian career . " Wissahickon " was laid down in 1899 by George Lawley & Son at Neponset , Massachusetts , as the private single - screw steam yacht " Valda " , with a composite hull made of an iron frame with wood planking . " Valda " was completed in 1900 and renamed " Wissahickon " in late 1901 or early 1902 . She was the property of Mrs . Charles W . Henry of Philadelphia , Pennsylvania , when the United States entered World War I on 6 April 1917 and may have served in the Maine Naval Militia prior to her acquisition by the U . S . Navy . Acquisition and commissioning . In 1917 , the U . S . Navy acquired " Wissahickon " from Mrs . Henry for use as a section patrol vessel during World War I . Records concerning " Wissahickon " s acquisition and commissioning are vague , somewhat contradictory , and incomplete . It appears that U . S . Navy personnel reported aboard " Wissahickon " as early as April 1917 , although one record source states that the Navy did not acquire her from Mrs . Henry until 13 July 1917 . No primary source states her commissioning date ; her ship ' s log starts on 20 August 1917 - stating that she was under the command of Lieutenant , junior grade , E . W . Haskell , USNRF on that date - but one secondary source states that she was not commissioned until 3 October 1917 . At any rate , " Wissahickon " was commissioned sometime between April and early October 1917 . Sources differ as to whether she was commissioned without her name as USS " SP - 852 " or as USS " Wissahickon " ( SP - 852 ) , with her name being changed in 1918 to USS " SP - 852 " . U . S . Navy service . The Navy considered " Wissahickon " / " SP - 852 " too light for " distant service " in European waters , so she was placed in the Naval Coast Defense Reserve and assigned to the 1st Naval District in northern New England . Initially based at Rockland , Maine , she began patrols in the vicinity of that port . She spent most of the winter of 1917 - 1918 moored to a pier there ; in January 1918 , all of her officers and enlisted men became ill with common cold s and sore throat s , and the ship was quarantined until the diseases ran their course . When her crew had returned to good health , she returned to patrol duty off Rockland . In mid - summer 1918 , she was reassigned to duty at Boston , Massachusetts , where she arrived on 20 August 1918 . She operated from the section base at East Boston , Massachusetts , for the rest of World War I and into January 1919 . Apparently sometime between September and November 1918 , and definitely by 1 January 1919 , her name was changed from USS " SP - 852 " to USS " Wissahickon " ( SP - 852 ) . Disposal . Late in January 1919 , " Wissahickon " moved to Camden , Maine . She was stricken from the Navy List on 10 February 1919 and was decommissioned at Camden on 12 February 1919 . On 15 February 1919 , she was ordered returned to Mrs . Henry .
Sakakibara Yasumasa Background . Sakakibara Yasumasa was born in Tenmon 17 ( 1548 ) , the 2nd son of Sakakibara Nagamasa , in the Ueno district of Mikawa Province . The Sakakibara were hereditary retainers of the Matsudaira ( later Tokugawa ) clan , being classified as " fudai " . However , they did not serve the clan directly , but instead served one of its senior retainers , which at that time was Sakai Tadanao ( which classified the Sakakibara as " baishin " , or " rear vassals " ) . The young Yasumasa interacted with Matsudaira Motoyasu ( later Tokugawa Ieyasu ) often from a young age , and was soon appointed his page . Due to his valor in the suppression of the " Ikkō - ikki " uprising in Mikawa , he was allowed to use the " yasu " from Ieyasu ' s name . At this time , he unseated his brother and became head of the Sakakibara clan . There are two explanations for this . One is that his brother had been an ally of the Ikko Ikki rebels , and the other is that his brother was a retainer of Ieyasu ' s son Matsudaira Nobuyasu , who was implicated in what was most probably a fraudulent treason plot against Oda Nobunaga . Adulthood and Service as One of the ' Four Guardians ' . In Eiroku 9 ( 1566 ) , at age 19 , Yasumasa had his coming - of - age ritual , and soon after , he and Honda Tadakatsu were made " hatamoto " by Ieyasu , and each granted command of 50 cavalrymen . From that point on , they would function as Ieyasu ' s " hatamoto " unit commanders . Yasumasa battled at Anegawa during the year of 1570 , The Mikatagahara during the year of 1573 , along with the Nagashino during the year of 1575 . When the latter chose to defy Toyotomi Hideyoshi , Yasumasa still served under Ieyasu , suggesting the region of Komaki , suited for the currently ensuing campaign . Yasumasa was given the title of " Shikibu - dayū " , when accompanying Ieyasu to Osaka to meet with Hideyoshi . After the Tokugawa moved to the region of Kantō , he was to have a team responsible for the allocation of fiefs . While Ieyasu was serving as one of Hideyoshi ' s staff in the region of Kyūshū , Yasumasa was to supervise Kantō , as one of the chief administrators . Later life . Yasumasa received the 100 , 000 koku fief of Tatebayashi han following the Tokugawa victory at the Battle of Sekigahara , which remained in the family for a few generations . Yasumasa himself died in 1606 , at the age of 59 , and is buried at Zendoji Temple in Tatebayashi , where his grave still stands .
SSBN Deterrent Patrol insignia The SSBN Deterrent Patrol insignia is a uniform breast pin worn by officers and enlisted sailors of the United States Navy ' s submarine service who have completed strategic deterrent patrols in nuclear ballistic missile submarines . It is the successor to the Submarine Combat Patrol Insignia awarded for submarine patrols during World War II . Design of the SSBN pin shows a silver " Lafayette " - class submarine with superimposed Polaris missile and electron rings which signify the armament and nuclear - powered characteristics of the Fleet Ballistic Missile Deterrent Force . A scroll beneath the submarine holds up to six service stars , with one bronze star authorized for each successful patrol ( after the first , the pin being number one ) or a silver star for five successful patrols . At twenty ( 20 ) successful patrols , the SSBN pin is upgraded to a gold design . After the insignia was approved , awards were made retroactive to the first strategic deterrent patrol of USS " George Washington " ( SSBN - 598 ) which was completed on 21 January 1961 . The strategic deterrent patrols of the Regulus missile boats were not initially deemed worthy of this insignia , but this decision was reversed in 2004 . The SSBN pin is worn on the left uniform pocket , typically below award ribbons . The badge is considered a " secondary insignia " , meaning that the badge is worn secondary to a primary warfare pin , such as the Submarine Warfare insignia . Personnel eligible to wear other secondary submarine insignias , such as the Submarine Combat Patrol Insignia or the Deep Submergence Insignia , may only wear one such insignia at a time according to their personal desire . The badge doesn ' t need to be worn if the command doesn ' t require it .

Invasion of Martinique ( 1759 ) A British invasion of Martinique took place in January 1759 when a large amphibious force under Peregrine Hopson landed on the French - held island of Martinique and unsuccessfully tried to capture it during the Seven Years War . Cannon fire from the British fleet was ineffective against the fortress at Fort - Royal due to its location high on the cliffs , and there were no suitable landing places nearby . Unknown to the British commanders , French governor Francis de Beauharnais had not been resupplied for some months , and even a brief siege would have led to the fort ' s capitulation . However , Moore and Hopson decided instead to investigate the possibility of attacking Martinique ' s main commercial port , Saint - Pierre . After a desultory naval bombardment on 19 January that again had little effect on the port ' s defenses , they withdrew , and decided instead to attack Guadeloupe , home to a significant body of French privateers . The expedition was successful at Guadeloupe , which surrendered to them in May 1759 . In 1762 a British force successfully captured Martinique .
Himerios ( admiral ) Himerios ( Greek : ) , also Himerius , was a Byzantine administrator and admiral of the early 10th century , best known as the commander of the Byzantine navy during its struggles with the resurgent Muslim navies in the period 900 – 912 . Biography . Nothing is known about Himerios ' s early life . He was the uncle of Zoe Karbonopsina , the mistress and later wife of Emperor Leo VI the Wise ( r . 886 – 912 ) , and his career was the direct result of this relationship . Initially a " protasēkrētis " , Himerios was appointed in command of the Byzantine fleet in 904 . A Muslim fleet under Leo of Tripoli was heading towards Constantinople and had already driven back the Byzantines under the " droungarios " Eustathios Argyros . Eustathios was replaced by Himerios , who , however , did not have to fight , as the Arabs withdrew on their own . The two fleets encountered each other off Thasos , but the Byzantines chose not to give battle . As a result , the Arabs were able to besiege and sack Thessalonica , the Byzantine Empire ' s second - largest city , and sail home unopposed . On St . Thomas ' s day ( October 6 ) in 906 , Himerios managed to score his first victory over the Arabs , and it was probably then that he was awarded the high state office of " logothetēs tou dromou " ( effectively foreign minister ) . Another victory followed in 909 , and in the next year , he led an expedition on the Syrian coast : Laodicea was sacked , its hinterland plundered , and many prisoners captured , with minimal losses . At the same time , Himerios also landed on Cyprus , which for centuries had been demilitarized as a condominium with the Caliphate . The recovery of the island was temporary only , as in 911 or 912 , Damian of Tarsus assaulted Cyprus . Eventually , the previous " status quo " was restored . In meantime , in the autumn of 911 , Himerios had set out on a new attempt to retake Crete . He commanded a fleet of 177 dromon s with 43 , 000 men , and set the island ' s capital , Chandax , under siege . The siege had lasted for six months , when news arrived from Constantinople that the emperor was ill and dying . Consequently , Himerios abandoned the fruitless siege and set sail for the capital . However , as his fleet was rounding Chios , they fell into a Saracen ambush set by Leo of Tripoli and Damian of Tarsus ( October 912 ) : the Byzantines were annihilated , and Himerios himself only narrowly escaped . Following this defeat and the death of Emperor Leo , he was dismissed by the new emperor , Alexander ( r . 912 – 913 ) , and exiled to the monastery of Kamba , where he died six years later .
