Gottfried Heinrich Graf zu Pappenheim the another commander in the Battle of Lüzen

 




Gottfried Heinrich Graf zu Pappenheim the another commander in the Battle of Lüzen


Man cannot step twice in the same river. 


Do you know who was Gottfried Heinrich Graf zu Pappenheim (1)(later just Pappenheim)(1594-1632) (image above)? That man was the commander of the Holy Roman Empire Army at Battle of Lüzen(2), and that man died eleven days later after Gustavus Adolphus or Gustav II Adolph in the same battle. The date of the death of Gustavus Adolphus was 6 November 1632. 


And the death of Pappenheim was 17 November 1632. Many times there are many mentions of the Gustav II Adolph (1594-1632)(3) when people are looking for information about the Battle of Lüzen, but Pappenheim is not so well known person in history. 


Some Greek philosophers said that a person cannot walk twice to the same river. And that thing means that the same person cannot make the same error twice. Those Greek philosophers ever met general Pappenheim, who attacked seven times in the same point the King of Sweden Gustav II Adolphs army at Breitenfeld. That maneuver meant that the Pappenheim's side lost that battle. Somebody asked, why the emperor let that man lead, although he caused that Tilly lost that battle. 


That person is listed as one of the worst military leaders ever. The thing is that Pappenheim is also a person who is remembered only one battle, and that man earned a reputation in many other battles, but then something happened, and the result was that this man is known only by the battle of Lüzen. In that battle also Gustav II Adolph fell, and that means that the Lüzen was a disaster for both sides. 


When we are looking at history, we are facing thing, that good thing what people are made are lost in the shadows of the losses. And the fatal mistake, what Pappenheim made was that he somehow forgot, where he was. So why that man was not in his level? There is one very good explanation for that thing, and that is that Pappenheim was changed to some other person, who gave the wrong orders in the purpose. 


Sometimes people are asking, why the death of Pappenheim is not mentioned so often. Many times people know, who was Gustav II Adolph, who also died in the same battle, but Pappenheim's name is not so well-known.

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...

The story of (Northrop?) TR3A "Black Manta"

    Image I The story of (Northrop?) TR3A "Black Manta" Sometimes there have been discussions that the mysterious TR3A "Black Manta" was a study project for the B-2 bomber.  That means that TR3A was used as the flying mockup for testing the aerodynamic and control solutions for the B-2 "Spirit" bomber. The thing that supports this thing is that the manufacturer of both planes is Northrop corporation.  Along with "Aurora" was flying one other mysterious aircraft, TR3A "Black Manta". The system is described as the "Stealth VTOL" (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft. Unless the mysterious TR3B, the Northrop TR3A is the conventional VTOL-aircraft, what is using regular jet engines, but what has the stealth-body.  Image II The thing is that the stealth-reconnaissance aircraft, which uses a similar technology with the Northrop B-2 bomber would be an interesting part of the weapon arsenal. There is a possibility that the TR3A was...

Terrifying visions of genetic engineering.

 Terrifying visions of genetic engineering.  The modern Hounds of Baskerville ABW:s (Advanced biological weapons are the modern Hounds of Baskerville. The term ABV means the animal which is genetically engineered. And which is controlled by using some interactive electronic systems. There is a possibility to connect the action camera to dogs collars. And transmit commands to that animal by using electronic systems. Spoken words can use to the commands.  Or they can be a series of sounds that are stored in the sound files. When the operator activates a certain file that sound means a certain command to the animals. There is the possibility to automatize some commands by connecting the system to the image recognition tool. When the action camera sees something that is stored in the memory of the computer. That system sends the coded order to the animal.  Nanotechnology and genetic engineering are the most lethal combination in the world. The ABW:s (Advanced Biological ...
