Baudette Air Force Station Baudette Air Force Station is a closed United States Air Force General Surveillance Radar station . It is located south - southwest of Baudette , Minnesota . It was closed in 1979 . History . Baudette Air Force Station was initially part of Phase II of the Air Defense Command Mobile Radar program . The Air Force approved this expansion of the Mobile Radar program on October 23 , 1952 . Radars in this network were designated “ SM . ” The station became operational on 1 October 1958 when the 692d Aircraft Control and Warning Squadron began operating an AN / FPS - 3 and a pair of AN / FPS - 6 height - finder radars , and initially the station functioned as a Ground - Control Intercept ( GCI ) and warning station . As a GCI station , the squadron ' s role was to guide interceptor aircraft toward unidentified intruders picked up on the unit ' s radar scopes . During 1959 Baudette AFS joined the Semi Automatic Ground Environment ( SAGE ) system , feeding data to DC - 10 at Duluth IAP , Minnesota . After joining , the squadron was redesignated as the 692d Radar Squadron ( SAGE ) on 15 December 1959 . The radar squadron provided information around the clock to the SAGE Direction Center where it was analyzed to determine range , direction altitude speed and whether or not aircraft were friendly or hostile . In 1962 Baudette received an AN / FPS - 24 search radar , and during 1963 an AN / FPS - 26 A height - finder radar was installed , replacing one AN / FPS - 6 , and the other AN / FPS - 6 height - finder radar was upgraded to an AN / FPS - 90 . On 31 July 1963 , the site was redesignated as NORAD ID Z - 132 . In addition to the main facility , Baudette operated the following AN / FPS - 18 Gap Filler sites : Over the years , the equipment at the station was upgraded or modified to improve the efficiency and accuracy of the information gathered by the radars . The AN / FPS - 90 height - finder radar was retired in late 1971 . The 692nd Radar Sq was inactivated and replaced by the 692d Air Defense Group in March 1970 . The upgrade to group status was done because of Baudette AFS ' status as a Backup Interceptor Control ( BUIC ) site . BUIC sites were alternate control sites in the event that SAGE Direction Centers became disabled and unable to control interceptor aircraft . The group was awarded the Air Force Outstanding Unit Award for exceptionally meritorious service for the period 1 June 1971 through 31 May 1973 The group was inactivated and replaced by the 692nd Radar Squadron as defenses against manned bombers were reduced . The group was disbanded in 1984 . The 692d Radar Squadron was inactivated on 1 July 1979 as part of the phase - down of Aerospace Defense Command . Today , the former Baudette Air Force Station is a cold - weather automobile test facility used by Acura . Many USAF buildings remain and in use and the station is well maintained , along with the large AN / FPS - 24 search radar tower .
Walter A . Bell Walter Andrew Bell ( January 4 , 1889 – 1969 ) was a Canadian geologist . He worked for the Geological Survey of Canada for over 40 years and authored or co - authored 70 publications , mostly concerning Carboniferous stratigraphy , paleobotany and paleontology of Atlantic Canada . He also contributed significantly to central and western Canadian Mesozoic and Cenozoic paleobotany . His work provided support for the theory of continental drift . Early life . Bell was born to Scottish Presbyterian parents in St . Thomas , Ontario . He attended Queen ' s University in Kingston , Ontario , where he specialized in Geological Engineering . In 1911 , he obtained a MSc in Geology from Yale University . Career . In 1911 , Bell began his work with the Geological Survey of Canada examining the Carboniferous plants of Joggins near the Bay of Fundy . His scientific work was interrupted by World War I . From 1916 to 1919 , he served with the Royal Regiment of Canadian Artillery and fought at Ypres , Vimy and Arras . After the war , Bell stayed in England for several months independently examining British fossils before returning to his studies at Yale . In 1920 , he received his PhD with distinction . After school he returned to the Geological Survey of Canada full - time . He concentrated his research on the structure , stratigraphy and palaeontology of the Lower Carboniferous Horton and Windsor groups of Nova Scotia . Bell was not a believer in the theory of continental drift , but his findings of the fossil plants proved to be well - known European species , thus becoming the foundation for the modern plate tectonics framework of the Maritimes . Bell ’ s 1949 publication on fossil plants from Alberta was expansive as Bell was able to supplement his own collections with those collected 50 years earlier by Dawson , Selwyn , and Tyrrell . In 1950 , Bell was promoted from Assistant Palaeobotanist to Director . As Director he encouraged and strengthened paleontological and stratigraphic studies . In 1953 , Bell allowed George Hanson to take over as Director . In the final seven years before his death , his publications included 220 illustrated plates of fossil plants from across Canada . In 1969 , Bell died . He was buried at Alma , Pictou County , Nova Scotia . Legacy . In 1965 , he was awarded the Geological Association of Canada ’ s highest honour , the Logan Medal . In 1968 the Saint Mary ' s University Geology Society was founded as the W . A Bell Geology Club . Subsequently the name was changed to the D . Hope - Simpson Geology Club , in honour of the first chairperson of the Geology Department , Dr . David Hope - Simpson . In 1995 , the Walter A . Bell Memorial Symposium has held in Halifax .
Battle of Bakhmach Battle of Bakhmach ( " Bitva u Bachmače " in Czech ) , was a battle between the Czechoslovak Legion in Russia and German forces occupying Ukraine . The battle lasted from March 8 to March 13 , 1918 over the city of Bakhmach ( Бахмач ) , today in Ukraine . The Legion managed to escape the encirclement . On March 3 , 1918 Russia , controlled by the Bolsheviks , signed the Brest - Litovsk peace treaty with Germany in which it gave up , among others , control over Ukraine . Armies of Germany and Austria - Hungary started to occupy the land without much resistance . The Czechoslovak Legion ( about 42 , 000 soldiers ) , until then engaged in retreat battles with these armies , was set up for escape from Russia via the Trans - Siberian railroad . On March 8 Germans reached Bakhmach , an important railroad hub and Legion was in danger of being encircled . The threat was grave because captured legionnaires were summarily executed as traitors of Austria - Hungary . 6th " Hanácký " and 7th " Tatranský " Rifle Regiments , together with The Assault battalion of Czechoslovak Army Corps of the Legion set up defense at the town against incoming German 91st and 224th Infantry divisions . The fights peaked on March 10 and lasted until the last train with legionnaires left the town , continuing toward Vladivostok . Losses of the Legion were : 145 killed , 210 wounded , 41 missing . Estimate of German losses is around 300 dead and hundreds wounded . Similarly to Battle of Zborov or the " Siberian anabasis " , the battle of Bakhmach became one of the symbols of the Czechoslovakian Legions and their fight for independence .

AEKKEA - RAAB R - 29 The R - 29 fighter belongs to a number of plane types that were developed in Greece by AEKKEA - RAAB , a company founded in this country by Antonius Raab , a German airplane designer , and his Greek partners . Other reported models of the new company were related to earlier products of the Raab - Katzenstein company that had previously operated in Germany . These included the R - 27 single - seat fighter , introduced in 1935 . It featured a light construction with wooden wings , steel - tube fuselage and a Hispano - Suiza 12Y engine ; its maximum speed was 430 km / h . However , there is apparently no production record for this type . The R - 29 was a completely new design developed by Raab ’ s Greek company in late 1936 , featuring similar structural characteristics with the aforementioned type , a " Fairchild Ranger " engine , cantilever single - leg undercarriage , two machine - guns , and a maximum speed of 473 km / h . There seems to be some discrepancy between " Jane ' s " contemporary reporting it as a " fighter " , and Raab ' s later description ( in his book ) of the plane as a " trainer " . However , at least one more contemporary document ( documents for export to Spain ) describes it as fighter , so an error ( or a perception of its possible use as an advanced trainer , as Raab clearly describes it as a single seater ) in Raab ' s book , written almost half a century later , cannot be precluded . This plane , along with another new type , the " Tigerschwalbe R - 26V / 33 " ( derived from an earlier Raab - Katzenstein model ) , was destined for the Republican forces in Spain . The main and all complex parts of 30 planes of each type were produced in Greece and shipped to Spain , where a subsidiary company carried out assembly and fitting of certain parts . Here , too , there is some discrepancy , as a major AEKKEA aircraft engineer , Georgios Pangakis , had reported 40 ( rather than 30 ) " R - 29s " shipped to Spain in almost finished state , only missing engines and machine guns . According to Raab , the 60 or so almost finished planes of both types , together with the construction plans , were handed over to the Soviets by the Republicans and shipped to the USSR , their fate remaining unknown . There seems to be no surviving image of the plane ( after invaluable AEKKEA files in Greece were destroyed during an archive move ) , with only a description of the plane layout provided in " Jane ' s " contemporary publication . Also , while records for export to Spain exist , there is no source ( other than Raab ' s own book ) providing information regarding the planes ' fate afterwards . This probably has to do with the secrecy surrounding Soviet military activities at the time . Nonetheless , it seems that ending up in Soviet hands , this unknown fighter has taken part in WWII against the Germans in one way or another .

VI Corps ( German Empire ) The VI Army Corps / VI AK ( ) was a corps level command of the Prussia n and then the Imperial German Armies from the 19th Century to World War I . Originating in 1815 as the General Command for the Province of Silesia with headquarters in Breslau ( now Wrocław in Poland ) . The Corps served in the Austro - Prussian War . During the Franco - Prussian War it was assigned to the 3rd Army . In peacetime the Corps was assigned to the VIII Army Inspectorate but joined the 4th Army at the start of the First World War . It was still in existence at the end of the war . The Corps was disbanded with the demobilisation of the German Army after World War I . Austro - Prussian War . VI Corps fought in the Austro - Prussian War in 1866 , seeing action in the Battle of Königgrätz . Franco - Prussian War . During the Franco - Prussian War , the Corps was initially held back in Silesia against the possibility of intervention by Austria - Hungary . It only moved up to join the 3rd Army in August 1870 . It then participated in the Siege of Paris and the Battle of Chevilly . Peacetime organisation .
