Columbus - Belmont State Park Columbus - Belmont State Park , on the shores of the Mississippi River in Hickman County , near Columbus , Kentucky , is the site of a Confederate fortification built during the American Civil War . The site was considered by both North and South to be strategically significant in gaining and keeping control of the Mississippi River . History . Confederate General Leonidas Polk fortified the area now occupied by the park beginning September 3 , 1861 . The fort at Columbus was built upon a bluff along the " cutside " of the river . The fort was christened Fort DeRussey , but Polk referred it as the " Gibraltar of the West . " He had equipped it with a massive chain that was stretched across the Mississippi to Belmont , Missouri , to block the passage of Union gunboats and supply vessels to and from Southern destinations in . Equipped also with 143 cannons , Columbus was the Northern - most Confederate base along the Mississippi , protecting Memphis , Vicksburg and other key Southern holdings . As the northern terminus of the Mobile and Ohio Railroad , Columbus was logistically tied to Confederate supply lines . Many of the earthen fortifications , buildings and artillery pieces were lost to erosion of the bluff during heavy flooding in the region during the 1920s . When the flooding receded in 1925 , the giant chain was exposed , and the people of Columbus decided to save it for future generations . The area containing the park was purchased by the state of Kentucky in 1934 . Attractions . The primary attraction in the park continues to be Polk ' s giant chain , which is estimated to have been over a mile long before flooding and erosion destroyed part of it . With an anchor weighing between four and six tons and each chain link being eleven inches ( 279 mm ) long , the Civilian Conservation Corps built a stone monument to hold the chain in 1934 . Another attraction at the park is the remains of the " Lady Polk , " a giant experimental cannon named for Polk ' s wife . At long and 15 , 000 pounds , the imposing gun bombarded Ulysses S . Grant ' s troops at the Battle of Belmont with 128 - pound conical projectiles that it could fire up to three miles ( 5 km ) . However , repeated shots from the cannon heated and expanded the metal barrel , so when its last loaded but unfired shot from the Battle of Belmont was discharged two days later , the projectile was unable to escape the barrel , causing the cannon to explode into three pieces and killing 18 Confederate soldiers . A Federal newspaper soon after mocked that : " a person would be likely to consider himself as safe on one end [ of the cannon ] as the other . " Museum . A single surviving antebellum building at the park , once a farmhouse , served as a Confederate hospital during the early part of the war . The restored building remains a museum and interpretive center for the Kentucky state park system . Exhibits focus on the Civil War history of the area and local natural and cultural history . The museum is open daily from May through September , and on weekends in April and October .

Airhead An airhead is a designated area in a hostile or threatened territory which , when seized and held , allows the air landing of further teams and materiel via an airbridge , and provides the maneuver and preparation space necessary for projected operations . Normally it is the area seized in the assault phase of an airborne operation . It may also be used as a staging or refueling point for less permanent operations . Typically , an airhead is established by helicopter - landed or paratrooper forces , and often will take place at an airport ( to allow conventional transport to land later on ) or at a helicopter or glider - accessible area . Notable airhead operations include Battle of Crete and Operation Market Garden during World War II , and Operation Just Cause in Panama in 1989 . Operation Castor was intended to establish an offensive airhead , but quickly degenerated into the Siege of Dien Bien Phu .
Type 99 ( camouflage ) Type 99 is a camouflage pattern used by People ' s Liberation Army of the People ' s Republic of China . Type 99 has developed many variants throughout its service , each with different designations and colour variants . For example , there are " Type 87 " , " Type 95 " , and " Type 03 " patterns . The main variant is a four - colour woodland pattern with olive , green , yellowish - green and black . Type 99 , like many other woodland uniforms with black , has been criticized for its use of this color , but once faded , it becomes dull and subdued , and therefore virtually unnoticeable . Type 99 ' s style imitates that of the older American M81 Woodland camouflage , in the sense it utilizes a macropattern of four colours for concealment , printed in interlocking , elongated and branching blobs . Type 99 uses a yellowish - green colour for its fourth colour , as opposed to the US pattern ' s khaki . Currently , Type 99 remains the standard utility and field uniform of the PLA . Currently , the Type 87 Combat & Training Uniform is being replaced by the new Type 07 Combat & Training Uniform .
