Niechorze is a town situated in north-western Poland in the Zachodniopomorskim Voideship. The town is situated between the Baltic Sea on the north and Liwia Łuża lake on the south. There are an estimated 909 people living in Niechorze.
History[edit]At the beginning Nichorze was a small fishing town. In 1866 a large lighthouse was built, which still exists today. Development of the settlement began in 1870. In 1889 there were already 700 people living in Niechorze. On the 1st of July in 1896 the first train line was opened which connected Gryfice with Niechorze. This train line was called the Gryfickiej Kolei Wąskotorowej. On the 1st of May in 1913 the train line was extended to Trzebiatowem and Pogorzelicę. These connections helped to expand the town. To this day you can still see the old huts of the fishermen from the 18th and 19th centuries. Sadly these huts are being torn down to be replaced with modern hotels.
Attractions[edit]Niechorze lighthouse Built in 1866 the lighthouse is a town icon which looks over the whole settlement. The lighthouse is 45m tall and there are 200 stairs leading to the observation deck at the very top. On a clear day you can see Niechorze, Pogorzelice, Lake Liwia Łuża and the Baltic Sea for many kilometers. Because of the strong 1000W bulb during the night the light is visible from 20 miles away. The lighthouse can be visited every day from 10:00 to 18:00. –Gardens around the lighthouse Around the Niechorze lighthouse are beautiful gardens which are worth seeing. –The Gryfickiej Kolei Wąskotorowej train line built in 1896 The train line travels from Niechorze to Gryfice, Trzebiatów, Trzęsacz, Rewal and Pogorzelicę. The old wagons make you feel like you were back in the past. The train line operates a few times each day from June to September. When the train is not operating you can still visit the Gryfickiej Kolei Wąskotorowej Museum in Gryfice. –Old town centre The old town centre consists of a few old buildings all grouped together. They are very old and show how Niechorze was like in the past. –Fishing museum The fishing museum in Niechorze shows the life of a fisherman in Niechorze, showing how he goes about in his daily life and the work that he does. There are also 2 new sections in the museum. One is about nature and life in the coral reefs and the other is about nature and life in and around the Baltic Sea. –Lake Liwia Łuża This lake is situated around 300m away from the beach next to Niechorze. The lake is connected to the Baltic Sea by a small canal called Liwka. The lake is a nature reserve and houses many varieties of birds. –Ruins of Tręsacz Church Between Trzęsacz and Niechorze the ruins of an old church on a cliff remain. Sadly historians predict that in a few years the remains of the church will collapse because of poor foundations. –Baltic Sea Niechorze is famous for having a beautiful beach. In summer many tourists go to Niechorze to swim in the Baltic Sea and go for a walk along the beach. The area is also a good fishing spot and there is a jetty nearby. –Forests Surrounding the town of Niechorze are some beautiful forest reserves. It is very relaxing to go for a walk in the foresets which are home to many animals and plants.
Accommodation[edit]There is a large variety of accommodation when staying in Niechorze. There are guest houses, rest houses, private apartments, bivouacs and campsites.
Depka[edit]On the 18th of July in 2004 the beach in Niechorze became home to a Grey Seal from the Baltic Sea. The locals called the seal Depka and it can sometimes be seen swimming around nearby.

Mill Hill is located at the eastern end of Wall Street at its intersection with East Avenue in Central Norwalk. In the 1700s the Hill was called Whitney's Hill after the family name of the miller. The burying ground, which is now the third or fourth oldest in Norwalk, was established by the First Congregational church in 1767. There are 11 veterans of the American Revolutionary War buried in the Mill Hill Burying Ground.[4] The original Fitch house was constructed around 1740 on Goodman Hoyt Hill (which was later known as Earl's Hill) on the east side of what is now East Avenue.[5] Governor Thomas Fitch died on July 18, 1774 and the house was left to his survivors including his wife Hannah and son Thomas Fitch V (of Yankee Doodle fame). The Fitch family house was partially burned in the British raid of Norwalk on July 11 and 12, 1779 since Hannah Fitch, of tory inclinations, had vacated the town of Norwalk to avoid the raid (the British spared only tory properties in their raid). Fitch descendants lived in the house that was reconstructed after the raid until 1945. [6] In 1956 the portion of the Fitch house that survived the British raid was saved when Earls' Hill was removed to make room for the construction of the Connecticut Turnpike and moved to Mill Hill. In 1971 the Fitch house remnant was restored to look like an 18th century law office such as what Governor Fitch would have used.[5] The first schoolhouse in Norwalk constructed for that purpose was built around 1678 located near what had served as the Roger Ludlow School in East Norwalk (that building is now an apartment to the northeast of the East Norwalk Historical Cemetery). Several other school buildings were constructed including one that was likely burned in the British raid of 1779. The schoolhouse at the Mill Hill site was constructed around around 1826 near a former southern intersecton of Willow Street and East Avenue. The school became known as the Down Town district schoolhouse since "Down Town District" was the name used for what is now called East Norwalk until about 1883 or 1893. The building was used as a school until 1876. Over the subsequent years it was moved several times as neighboring property boundaries were altered. When Interstate 95 was built through East Norwalk the schoolhouse was moved to Mill Hill. [7] [8] [9] [10] At the founding of the Town of Norwalk in 1651 plans were made to construct a meeting house which was done by 1659. That original meeting house also served as the Congregational church. By about 1726 the town's Congregationalists requested that civic meetings be held outside of the church. Civic leaders at first complied with the request by holding meetings in various private homes and then eventually in the Up Town District School (near St. Paul's on the Green, but since relocated). By 1736 the first "Town House" for Norwalk was constructed at the site of where the Trolley Barn is located at Wall Street and Knight Street. The next Town House was built on the Mill Hill site but that building was burned in the 1779 British raid. In the aftermath of the burning Colonel Thomas Fitch V and other community members were appointed to a committee to plan the reconstruction of the Norwalk Town House, but the task was not completed until 1794. The 1794 Town House was not kept in good repair and by 1834 was such an embarassment that it was torn down by vandals. The present Town House at Mill Hill was built in 1835 by Captain Lewis Raymond, who had brought brick to Norwalk as ship ballast. It was possibly the third or fourth building in town constructed of brick. This Town House served the Town of Norwalk until the city-town consolidation that took effect June 30, 1913. Town business then moved to South Norwalk’s City Hall (which eventually became a museum too). The Norwalk Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution leased the Mill Hill Town House building beginning in 1924 and added a kitchen and bathroom at the rear of the building along with a basement. Today the Town House continues to be used for displays of historic memorabilia, meetings, social occasions, and educational programs including visits by schoolchildren. The Mill Hill Historic Park at 2 Wall Street is now maintained by the Norwalk Historical Society and the Norwalk-Village Green Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution.

Mason Carter (January 26, 1834-December 11, 1909) was a US Army officer who served in the American Civil War and the Indian Wars during the late 19th century. He was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for his role in the Battle of Bear Paw fought on January 8, 1877. His grandfather was Thomas Flournoy, an American general during the War of 1812. Biography[edit]Born to John Carter and Martha Flournoy in Augusta, Georgia, he went to sea at the age of 14 enlisting in the US Navy as an acting midshipman. During the next eight years, he attended the Annapolis Naval Academy while on active duty in the Mediterranean and the Atlantic Ocean. Failing the final exams three times, he was unable to graduate from the acadamy and eventually resigned in 1857. In 1860, he enlisted in the 1st U.S. Infantry under the name Mason Howard and was sent to the Indian Territory and participated in operations against the Commanche until the start of the American Civil War when the Union withdrew its forces to Kansas. Serving under General Nathaniel Lyon, Mason was later wounded at Battle of Wilson's Creek on August 10, 1861. He began using his real name the following year and served as a first lieutenant with the 1st Missouri State Militia Cavalry for a brief time before accepting a commission as a second lieutenant in the 5th U.S. Infantry on May 12, 1862. He would eventually become a first lieutenant in 1864. He was breveted for his actions against "hostile Indians" between Fort Hays and Fort Harker on October 18, 1867. During the Black Hawk War, he would be involved in skirmishes against Sitting Bull in 1876 and Crazy Horse in June 1877. On September 30, while commanding a company during Battle of Bear Paw, he successfully led a charge under heavy fire "dislodging the enemy and causing the Indians considerable losses" despite losing nearly one-third of his command within a half hour. For his actions during the battle, Clark was awarded a brevet and the Congressional Medal of Honor. Winning promotion to captain on September 4, 1878, Butler remained at that rank until his retirement on January 26, 1898 and became a major on the retired list in 1904. After his retirement, he became professor of military science and taught at the University of the South at Sewanee, Tennessee for ten years before moving to California where he died in San Diego and buried at the Fort Rosecrans Military Reservation on December 11, 1909. He was the first recipient of Medal of Honor to be interned at Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery. Further reading[edit]

Robert Goldthwaite Carter (October 29, 1845-January 4, 1936) was a US Cavalry officer who participated in the American Civil War and the Indian Wars, most notably against the Commanche during which he received the Congressional Medal of Honor for his role against a Commanche raiding party at Brazos River in Texas on October 10, 1877. He became a successful author in his later years writing several books based on his military career, including On the Border with Mackenzie (1935), as well as a series of booklets detailing his years as an Indian fighter on the Texas frontier. Only 100 of these were published for private distribution and are considered extremely rare surviving only in selected excerpts included in On the Border with Mackenzie. Biography[edit]Born in Bridgton, Maine, Carter moved to Portland with his family in 1847, and again in 1857, to Massachusetts. He was preparing to enter Phillips Academy when Carter enlisted as a private in the 22nd Massachusetts Infantry at the start of the American Civil War and remained with the Army of the Potomac from August 5, 1862 until October 4, 1864. During the war, he took part in the Battle of Antietam, Gettysburg, the Wilderness and the Siege of Petersburg as well as other minor engagements. In July 1865, he began attending West Point and was eventually commissioned a second lieutenant and assigned to the 4th U.S. Cavalry on June 15, 1870. During the next several years, Carter would participate in a number of expeditions against the Commanche and other tribes in the Texas-area. It was during one of these campaigns that he was brevetted first lieutenant and awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for his "most distinguished gallantry" against the Commanche on the upper Brazos River on October 10, 1871. Carter would suffer a severe injury during the battle, his left leg being shattered as his horse fell against a rock, which would eventually result in his early retirement. He would officially receive the medal on January 23, 1900. His official citation reads,
Returning to active duty, he joined Colonel Ranald Mackenzie in several campaigns including against the Kickapoo of northern Mexico in May 1873 and awarded a brevet to captain. He did win promotion to first lieutenant on February 21, 1875 although his leg injury disqualified him from active field duty and forced him to retire on June 28, 1876. Although he eventually recovered from his leg injury after proper treatment, his requests to return were denied by the US Army. He taught school and later headed the Washington-bureau of the Public Service Publishing Company in New York City. He would also write a number of booklets and books including Four Brothers in Blue (1913) and The Old Sergeant's Story (1926). However, the most successful was his memoir On the Border With Mackenzie (1935) which was published as the age of 90. He died at Washington, D.C. on January 4, 1936 and buried in Arlington National Cemetery. Bibliography[edit]

William Harding Carter (November 19, 1851-May 24, 1925) was a US Cavalry officer who served during the American Civil War, Spanish-American War and World War I. Largely responsible for the modernization and organization of the US Army during the early 20th century, he and Secretary of War Elihu Root are credited with the creation of the U.S. Army War College and helped pass the General Staff Act of 1903 through Congress, replacing the office of commanding general with a chief of staff and a more efficient reorganizion of military staff structure. He was also an active supporter of the Militia Act of 1903 which proposed to replace the obsolete state militia system with the National Guard Bureau. He was also took part in the Indian Wars seeing extensive service against the Apache in Arizona being awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor against the Apache during the Cibecue campaign on August 30, 1881. A later historian and military biographer, Carter wrote several books including From Yorktown to Santiago with the 6th Cavalry (1900), Old Army Sketches (1906) and The Life of Lieutenant General Chaffee (1917) as well as a number articles and academic papers for professional and learned journals. Biography[edit]Born in Nashville, Tennessee, he received both public and private schooling as a child and later attended the Kentucky Military Institute in Frankfort, Kentucky and acted as a mounted messenger during the American Civil War. Accepted into West Point, Carter graduated with a commission as a second lieutenant on June 13, 1873. He was assigned to the 8th U.S. Infantry at Fort D.A. Russell, Wyoming and was later on escort duty at Fort Fetterman and Fort Laramie. In February 1874, he participated in expeditions against the Cheyenne, Brulé and Oglala Sioux. During the summer, he followed his company passing through California to the Arizona Territory and stationed at Fort McDowell. While there, he transferred to the 6th U.S. Cavalry on November 28 and later reassigned to the 5th U.S. Cavalry at Fort Verde where he remained until May 1875. Carter served in various posts throughout the territory as an army scout and was occasionally involved in a number of minor skirmishes with local tribes. From April to July 1876, he was involved in the removal of the Chiricahua Apache from their reservation in southeastern Arizona to the San Carlos Apache Indian Reservation. He also oversaw the construction of the first telegraph line from Fort Grant to Fort Apache later that year. After a year of scouting in the Arizona and New Mexico territories as well as Sonora, Mexico during early 1878, Carter won promotion to first lieutenant on April 14, 1879 and took part in the final stages of the campaign against Vittorio from June to October 1880. The following summer, he took part in the Cibecue campaign as an adjutant under Carr and was awarded the Medal of Honor ""for distinguished bravery in action against the Apache Indians" when he and two others rescued wounded soldiers under heavy fire at Cibecue, Arizona on August 30, 1881. During the next several years, he would rise to high position being promoted to captain on November 20, 1889; major on January 29, 1897; lieutenant colonel on May 8, 1898; colonel on April 15, 1902; brigadier general on July 15, 1902 and finally to major general in 1909. In the years prior to the First World War, Carter was extensively involved in the technical details of organization of the US Army. In 1913, he later commanded the 2nd U.S. Division and was head of the Hawaiian Department before his retirement on November 19, 1915. Following the United States entry into the war, he was recalled to duty and appointed commander of the Central Department of Chicago from August 1917 to February 1918 and was later awarded the Distinguished Service Medal. Suffering from serious respiratory problems in his later years, likely related to heart disease, he died at his home in Washington, D.C. on May 24, 1925 and later buried in Arlington National Cemetery.

"(Special Information) In order to counter British preparations to take away the neutrality of Denmark and Norway, German Wehrmacht took over armed defence of both nations." - OKW message from Tuesday, April 9th of 1940.
German use of armored fighting vehicles in the Norwegian Campaign is often ignored, since only very limited panzer force was present. In addition, Norway had no tanks or any anti-tank guns as of April of 1940 and only tanks to oppose the German invasion were those of the Allied Force (composed of British, French and Polish units). In preparations for the invasion, panzer unit for special purpose deployment - Panzer Abteilung zur besonderer Vervendung 40 (Pz. Abt. z. b. V. 40) was formed in order to support infantry operations in southern Norway. The unit was formed on March 8th of 1940, at the army base at Putloss in Schleswig-Holstein. This battalion size unit was composed of three light companies assigned from 3rd (probably 5th Panzer Regiment), 4th (36th Panzer Regiment) and 5th Panzer Divisions (15th Panzer Regiment). The first company was commanded by Captain von Burstin, second by Captain Toelke and third by Captain Niedreck. Battalion HQ had three PzKpfw I tanks and three Kleiner Panzer Befehlswagen I command tanks. Each company had its own company HQ and four platoons. Company HQ had single PzKpfw I, two PzKpfw II tanks and single Kleiner Panzer Befehlswagen I command tank. The first, second and third platoon had four PzKpfw I tanks each, while fourth platoon had five PzKpfw II tanks. The majority of PzKpfw I were the model A (Ausf A), while PzKpfw II were mainly the model c (Ausf c not to be confused with Ausf C). The unit saw action in central Norway, in the area of Lake Mjoesa and Randsfjord, supporting infantry. Following the fall of Norway, Pz. Abt. z. b. V. 40 was stationed at Akershus Fortress in Oslo until it was transferred to Finland in the winter of 1941/42.
On April 9th, first and second companies were sent to Denmark, while third company was sent to Norway aboard ships "Urundi" and "Antaris H". On April 17th, only single Panzerkampfwagen I and Panzerkampfwagen II arrived in Oslo aboard "Urundi". The rest of the company (single Kleiner Panzer Befehlswagen I command tank, twelve PzKpfw I and six PzKpfw II tanks) went down with "Antaris H" (and other transports), which was sunk in the North Sea by a British submarine. In order to recompensate for the loss, platoon size unit equipped with three Neubaufahrzeug Panzerkampfwagen VI (Krupp turret) heavy tanks commanded by Lieutenant Hans Horstmann was sent to Norway. This unit was also known as Panzerzug Horstmann or Zug Putloss. It arrived in Oslo on April 19th, where its tanks were displayed for propaganda purposes. The focus was on three Neubaufahrzeug Panzerkampfwagen VI (Krupp turret) heavy tanks, which were to show the Allies that the German Panzertruppe was equipped with heavy tanks. The unit was then assigned to Pz. Abt. z. b. V. 40 and 196th Infantry Division and on April 20th moved to Hamar. Two of heavy tanks saw service with Pz. Abt. z. b. V. 40, while the third with Gruppe Pellangahr. The Gruppe Pellangahr was composed of elements of Pz. Abt. z. b. V. 40 and 196th Infantry Division. On April 25th, the one assigned to the Gruppe Pellangahr was immobilized by the British 25mm (French Hotchkiss) anti-tank gun position in the village of Kvam. One of two tanks from Pz. Abt. z. b. V. 40, drove and was stuck in the swampy area at Andalsnes and was eventually blown up by the German engineers. It was then replaced on May 16th of 1940, with a mild steel prototype giving the Pz. Abt. z. b. V. 40 once again the strength of three heavy tanks. Overall, Neubaufahrzeug Panzerkampfwagen VI (Krupp turret) heavy tanks proved to be unsuited for combat but in many cases provided infantry with the only available support.
On April 20th, the first and second company arrived in Oslo. Both companies had thirteen PzKpfw I, seven PzKpfw II tanks and one Kleiner Panzer Befehlswagen I command tank each. The third company had also originally 21 light tanks but was reduced to single PzKpfw I and II light tank and three NbFz PzKpfw VI heavy tanks. It was then probably refitted with limited (7 to 10) number of Panzerkampfwagen III (mainly Ausf D and few Ausf F) medium tanks. As of April 9th, Pz. Abt. z. b. V. 40 was to have some 69, including:
21 PzKpfw II light tanks (6 lost at sea), 6 Kleiner Panzer Befehlswagen I command tanks (1 lost at sea). Out of original 69 tanks only 54 reached Norway, this included (as of April 25th):
18 PzKpfw II light tanks, 4 Kleiner Panzer Befehlswagen I command tanks, 3 NbFz PzKpfw VI heavy tanks. After the arrival of three NbFz PzKpfw VI heavy tanks on April 19th, the strength grew to 53 tanks along with additional 7 to 10 PzKpfw III medium tanks, which probably assigned to the first company. At its peak, Pz. Abt. z. b. V. 40 had some 60 to 63 tanks. In addition, there were probably also Sd.Kfz.251 armored personnel carriers as part of Pz. Abt. z. b. V. 40 or 196th Infantry Division. The combat losses were 1 NbFz, 2 PzKpfw II and 8 PzKpfw I tanks.
As stated before, Norway was not seen as the "tank country" and only limited tank force, equipped with either obsolete or pre-production tanks was formed. The opposing tank force was French and consisted of 342nd and 351st Compagnie Autonome de Chars (Independent Tank Company), each equipped with 15 Hotchkiss H-39 light tanks. There is no evidence of combat between German and French tanks, limiting use of German tanks to support the infantry operations, while being supported by the airforce itself. In many cases tanks proved to be very effective providing infantry with support and cover. The experience of using tanks in mountainous and deeply wooded areas proved valuable in Russia and the Balkans, where similar conditions were encountered. After its combat experience in Norway, Pz. Abt. z. b. V. 40 was transferred to Finland in the winter of 1941/42 and was incorporated into 25th Panzer Division in 1943.
