The Battle of Hoke's Run, also known as the Battle of Falling Waters or Hainesville, took place on July 2, 1861, in Berkeley County, Virginia (now West Virginia) as part of the Manassas Campaign of the American Civil War.
 Notable as an early engagement of Confederate Colonel Thomas J. Jackson and his Brigade of Virginia Volunteers, nineteen days before their famous nickname would originate, this brief skirmish was hailed by both sides as a stern lesson to the other.
 Acting precisely upon the orders of a superior officer about how to operate in the face of superior numbers, Jackson's forces resisted General Robert Patterson's Union forces briefly and then slowly retreated over several miles.
The District of Alaska was the governmental designation for Alaska from May 17, 1884 to August 24, 1912, when it became Alaska Territory.
 Previously it had been known as the Department of Alaska.
 At the time, legislators in Washington, D.C., were occupied with post-Civil War reconstruction issues, and had little time to dedicate to Alaska.
 General Jefferson C. Davis, a U.S. Army officer, was put in charge as the first commander of the Department of Alaska, which between 1884 and 1912 was renamed the District of Alaska and was appointed a civil government by President Chester A. Arthur with the passage of the First Organic Act.
 During the Department era, Alaska was variously under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Army (until 1877), the United States Department of the Treasury (from 1877 until 1879) and the U.S. Navy (from 1879 until 1884), but now the area had its own government.
The XII Corps fought from northern France to Austria in World War II.
 Constituted in the Organized Reserves in 1933, it was activated on 29 August 1942 at Columbia, South Carolina.
 XII Corps became operational in France as part of Lieutenant General George S. Patton's Third Army on 1 August 1944.

 He joined the French Royal Army in 1787 and was sent to quell the Haitian Revolution in 1791.
 He fought in the Army of the North starting in 1793.
 He was promoted to chef de brigade (colonel) in 1797 and to general of brigade in 1800.
 He led a cavalry brigade at Caldiero in 1805 and initially commanded the Siege of Gaeta in 1806.
 He fought at Abensberg, Landshut, and Eckmühl in 1809 before being fatally wounded at the Battle of Wagram on 6 July 1809.
 Promoted general of division on the battlefield, he died of his wounds on the 28th.
 GUYOT DE LACOUR is one of the names inscribed under the Arc de Triomphe on Column 11 and his bust is in the Hall of Battles at the Palace of Versailles.
The term fragging is used to describe the deliberate killing or attempted killing by a soldier of a fellow soldier, usually a superior officer or non-commissioned officer (NCO).
 The word was coined by U.S. military personnel during the Vietnam War, when such killings were most often attempted with a fragmentation grenade, sometimes making it appear as though the killing was accidental or during combat with the enemy.
 The term fragging is now often used to encompass any means used to deliberately and directly cause the death of military colleagues.
Li Jiayu () (April 25, 1892 – May 21, 1944) was a KMT general from Sichuan who was killed during the Second Sino-Japanese War.
 A veteran of the Xinhai Revolution and the Second Revolution, he served as a regimental officer in the 6th Brigade of the Sichuan clique army, which was part of the Sichuan clique Army 3rd Division commanded by warlord Deng Xihou.
 He was promoted to commanding officer of the 6th Brigade in 1922 by his superior officer Deng and later promoted to major general and commander of the 1st Division of the Sichuan clique Army in September 1923.
 In August 1924, he was promoted to Lieutenant General in the Sichuan clique army.
 On May 21, 1944, he was killed in action in Henan province.
 On June 22, 1944, he was posthumously promoted to full General.
The Trial of Trebonius refers to the military trial of the Roman soldier Trebonius for the killing of Gaius Lusius, his superior officer and nephew of the Roman General and Consul Gaius Marius.
 The trial serves to show Marius’ impartiality when dealing out justice that made him popular among his soldiers as well as the common Roman citizen.
 Valerius Maximus calls Trebonius Gaius Plotius.
 Because Plutarch says that this even contributed to Marius' third election as consul, this most likely takes place in 104 BC.
 This event does not refer to Gaius Trebonius, one of the allies and later assassins of Julius Caesar.
Jefferson Columbus Davis (March 2, 1828 – November 30, 1879) was a regular officer of the United States Army during the American Civil War, known for the similarity of his name to Confederate President Jefferson Davis and for his killing of a superior officer in 1862.
The Court Martial of Major Keller is a 1961 British film directed by Ernest Morris and written by Brian Clemens.

 He is charged with killing his superior officer, but remains silent, refusing to defend himself.
Horse Guard of the Polish Crown Regiment (Polish: "Regiment Gwardii Konnej Koronnej" ) was a military unit of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and then of Poland.
 Formed in 1717 as a dragoon regiment by Jacob Heinrich von Flemming, it was initially commanded by Colonel William Mier, a Scottish officer in Polish service.
 Stationed in an area to the west of Warsaw, at the western end of the Saxon Axis, the regiment was often referred to by the name of its commanding officer.
 Consequently the entire area around the regiment's barracks came to be known as Mirów and the name persists to this day.
