Sir Henry Bard ' s regiment of Foote A brief history . Sir Henry Bard ' s Regiment of Foote was a northern unit , originally called Colonel Thomas Pinchbeck ' s Regiment of Foote . Raised in Northumberland . It arrived in Oxford in May 1643 under the command of Colonel Thomas Pinchbeck . Half of Pinchbeck ' s regiment was split from the regiment under Bard ' s command to form Lord Percy ' s Foote . Pinchbeck was killed at the first battle of Newbury , and Bard took control of Pinchbeck ' s half of the regiment , hence the name change .

The regiment later fought at Battle of Cropredy Bridge , Battle of Lostwithiel and the second battle of Newbury , before being reinforced by the Queen ' s lifeguard and forming the garrison of Campden House . It is possible that they may also at this time have become an all musketeer unit as was normal with garrisons and firelock muskets were certainly issued . Originally they wore grey or white coats but it is possible that red coats may have been issued at this time . The unit was finally destroyed at the Battle of Naseby ; all of its colours were captured . As part of the Sealed Knot . The present day regiment has two companies : Captain Errington ' s Companye , based mainly in Essex but also having members as far a field as Ipswich and Devon and The Major ' s Companye , based mainly around Basingstoke .

Battle of Blarathon The Battle of Blarathon was fought in 591 near Ganzak between a combined Eastern Roman ( Byzantine ) - Persian force and a Persian army led by the usurper Bahram Chobin . The combined army was led by John Mystacon , Narses , and the Persian prince Khosrau II . The Roman - Persian force was victorious , ousting Bahram Chobin from power and reinstating Khosrau as ruler of the Sassanid Empire . Khosrau was swiftly reinstated upon the Persian throne , and as agreed upon returned Dara and Martyropolis . Additionally , he agreed to a new partition of the Caucasus by which the Sassanids handed over to the Romans many cities , including Tigranokert , Manzikert , Baguana , Valarsakert , Bagaran , Vardkesavan , Yerevan , Ani , Kars , and Zarisat .

The extent of effective Roman control in the Caucasus reached its zenith historically .
List of active United States Marine Corps aircraft squadrons This is a list of all of the active squadrons that currently exist in the United States Marine Corps , sorted by type . Most squadrons have changed names and designations many times over the years , so they are listed by their current designation . Squadron designations . The basic tactical and administrative unit of United States Marine Corps aviation is the squadron . Fixed - wing aircraft squadrons ( heavier than air ) and tiltrotor squadrons are denoted by the letter " V " , which comes from the Spanish verb " volar " ( to fly ) . Rotary wing ( helicopter ) squadrons use " H . " Marine squadrons are always noted by the second letter " M . " Squadron numbering is not linear as some were numbered in ascending order and others took numbers from the wing or the ship to which they were assigned . From 1920 to 1941 , Marine flying squadrons were identified by one digit numbers . This changed on July 1 , 1941 when all existing squadrons were redesignated to a three - digit system . The first two numbers were supposed to identify the squadrons parent group but with the rapid expansion during World War II and frequent transfer of squadrons this system fell apart . Rotary - Wing Aircraft . Marine Helicopter Squadron . The squadron is responsible for the helicopter transportation of the President of the United States , , Cabinet members and VIPs . In addition to its VIP transport role , it is also tasked with operational test and evaluation ( OT & E ) of new flight systems for Marine Corps helicopters . The squadron currently flies the VH - 3D Sea King and the SH - 60 Seahawk . These were due to be replaced by the VH - 71 Kestrel , however that program was cancelled in April 2009 . Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadrons . Heavy helicopter squadrons were first formed in 1966 when the Marine Corps began flying the heavy lift CH - 53 Sea Stallion during the Vietnam War . Their primary role is moving cargo and equipment with the secondary role of transferring troops ashore in an amphibious assault . Most of the squadrons have transitioned to the larger and more powerful CH - 53E Super Stallion ; however , three squadrons of the original Sea Stallions still remain . The CH - 53Es are the most powerful helicopter in the U . S . military inventory today . Due to a reorganization in Marine aviation , HMH - 366 was reactivated in 2008 at MCAS Cherry Point .

Résistancialisme " Résistancialisme " ( literally , " Resistance - ism " ) is a neologism , created in 1987 by the French historian Henry Rousso , to describe the myth , particularly amongst Gaullists and Communists , which exaggerated the French involvement in the resistance to Nazi occupation during the Second World War . In particular , it was used to describe the belief that resistance was both unanimous and natural during the period , as well as the lack of historiographical interest in the role of French collaboration and the Vichy government . It should not be confused with " Résistantialisme " ( with a " t " , literally " Resistant - ism " ) , a phrase coined by the Jean - Marie Desgranges , to criticize those who attempted to retrospectively fake or exaggerate their own involvement in the resistance for their own advantage , for instance François Mitterrand .

Salmeniko Castle The Salmeniko Castle ( , " Kastro tou Salmenikou " ) or Orgia or Oria Castle ( Κάστρο Οργιάς / Ωριάς ) was a castle at the foot of Panachaiko mountain , in the modern municipality of Aigialeia , Achaea , Greece . History . The castle was first built by the local barons of the Latin Principality of Achaea between 1280 and 1310 . With the years , a large town developed around it . The site was naturally strong , at the top of a hill behind which the river Foinikas ran . Because of the steep cliffs there , no fortifications were required on that side . In 1460 , Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II invaded the Peloponnese , and the castles of the Byzantine Despotate of Morea submitted , one after another , often without resistance . Salmeniko was the last stronghold to offer resistance , under the command of Graitzas Palaiologos . The fortress resisted for a year , as the Ottoman siege guns were unable to destroy the walls . Only after the Janissaries managed to find and cut the fort ' s water supply line , did the town surrender . According to folk tradition , the residents threw sponges suspended from ropes from the castle , and thus collected water from the river below , until the Janissaries discovered it and started cutting the ropes . The town ' s inhabitants , 6 , 000 according to the historian Stefanos Thomopoulos , were enslaved , while 900 children were selected for the Devşirme . Graitzas however and a number of defenders still held out in the citadel . As a condition for surrendering it , he demanded free passage of his men . Mehmed accepted and departed unmolested for Aigio , leaving a certain Hamouzas as governor of the Peloponnese and Thessaly , and to oversee Graitza ' s departure . Hamouzas disregarded the agreement , however , and arrested the first men who tried to leave the citadel . Informed of this , Mehmed replaced him with Zaganos Pasha and left the Peloponnese . However , Zaganos too renewed the siege of the citadel . Graitzas then attempted a sortie , and managed to break through and find refuge in the Venetian - held fortress of Lepanto . The fall of Salmeniko signalled the complete submission of the Peloponnese ( with the exception of Venetian holdings like Nafplion , Methoni and Koroni ) to the Ottomans . Today , the castle and town lie in ruins , which are still visible on the site . A medieval bridge survives intact , while the " Oria rock " ( Βράχος της Ωριάς ) , where , according to local tradition , a princess was killed by a traitor during the Ottoman siege , is nearby .
Somme American Cemetery and Memorial Somme American Cemetery and Memorial in France is situated ½ mile southwest of the commune of Bony , Aisne in northern France . It is located on a gentle slope typical of the open , rolling Picardy countryside . Cemetery . The cemetery contains the graves of 1 , 844 of the United States ' military dead from World War I .

The longer axis leads to the chapel at the eastern end of the cemetery . A massive bronze door surmounted by an American eagle leads into the chapel , whose outer walls contain sculptured pieces of military equipment . Once inside , light from a cross - shaped crystal window above the marble altar bathes the subdued interior with light . The walls bear the names of 333 of the missing . Rosettes mark the names of those since recovered and identified .
CADPAT Canadian Disruptive Pattern ( CADPAT ; French : " dessin de camouflage canadien " , DcamC ) is the computer - generated digital camouflage pattern currently used by the Canadian Forces ( CF ) . CADPAT is designed to reduce the likelihood of detection by night vision device s . Background . Canada ' s desire for a new soldier system dates back to November 1988 and closely follows efforts in many NATO countries . The first research effort , called Integrated Protective Clothing and Equipment ( IPCE ) Technology Demonstration was initiated in 1995 but then was cancelled , due to high systems cost and failure to meet the majority of the requirements . Ongoing operations in the mid 1990s led to the creation of the Clothe the Soldier ( CTS ) Project , which directly addressed the NATO soldier system capability areas of survivability and sustainability . The Canadian Disruptive Pattern was a part of ongoing research and implemented during the Clothe the Soldier Project ( CTS ) . Pattern variations . In development for the better part of a decade , the pattern comes in three varieties : temperate woodland ( TW ) , arid region ( AR ) , and winter / arctic ( WA ) . The temperate woodland pattern became the standard issue for the Army in 2002 , with the Air Force following suit in 2004 . Uniforms and equipment in CADPAT material replaced the olive green material in use since the early 1960s . Temperate woodland . CADPAT TW has four specific colours — light green , dark green , brown , and black — and was first introduced in 1996 on the helmet cover for the new CG634 helmet then coming into service . At the same time , the pattern was also introduced on a new soldier ' s individual camouflage net . The CADPAT TW uniform allows Canadian soldiers protection from observation by the naked eye and night vision devices . Arid regions . Concurrent with the trials of CADPAT TW , work was carried out to identify a uniform for operations in desert , near desert , and savannah environmental conditions . This three - colour pattern , known as CADPAT arid regions ( AR ) , incorporates three different colours of brown . The CADPAT design for arid regions has been approved , and the transfer of this digital technology is ongoing to the textiles industry . CADPAT AR also features two additional arm pockets and Velcro on the arms compared to the TW uniform . In light of the deployment of the Immediate Reaction Force to Afghanistan , the CADPAT AR project was expedited with the intent that it would be issued to soldiers in summer 2002 . Winter / arctic . The winter / arctic pattern was introduced as an upgrade to the current monochrome winter whites to further enhance the Canadian soldier ' s camouflage capability by day and night . It includes near infra - red ( NIR ) technology . Urban . Defence Research and Development Canada based at CFB Suffield ( DRDC - S ) has a requirement to develop a new urban pattern for the Canadian Forces based on the three major metropolitan areas of Canada : Toronto , Vancouver , and Montreal . This new pattern is known as the Canadian urban environment pattern ( CUEPAT ) .
