In October 539 BCE, the Persian king Cyrus took Babylon, the ancient capital of an oriental empire covering modern Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Israel. In a broader sense, Babylon was the ancient world’s capital of scholarship and science. The subject provinces soon recognized Cyrus as their legitimate ruler. Since he was already lord of peripheral regions in modern Turkey and Iran (and Afghanistan?), it is not exaggerated to say that the conquest of Babylonia meant the birth of a true world empire. The Achaemenid empire was to last for more than two centuries, until it was divided by the successors of the Macedonian king Alexander the Great. A remarkable aspect of the capture of Babylon is the fact that Cyrus allowed the Jews (who were exiled in Babylonia) to return home.

IG-541 (Inergen) is an inert gas comprising of 50% Nitrogen, 42% Argon & 8% Co², it is naturally present in the atmosphere, therefore its green-house effect is nil and its ozone layer depletion potential is zero. It is chemically inert, non-conductive, colourless, odourless and flavourless. IG-541 (Inergen) is non-corrosive and may be used at normal temperatures with such materials as nickel, steel, stainless steel, copper, brass, bronze and plastics.

Well I never :lol:
The Fig 542 is of gunmetal construction, with diaphragm protected working parts and PTFE to metal seating. All wetted parts are manufactured from dezincification resistant materials, approved by the Water Research Centre for use on potable water. Inlet and outlet connections are of equal size, with female threads to BS 21. Sizes from DN32 upwards are also available with flanged inlet connections. For other specific technical requirements consult the NABIC technical department.

547 Squadron was formed at Holmsley South on 21 October 1942, as a unit of Coastal Command equipped with Wellingtons. Initially it was trained as an anti-shipping squadron equipped for both bombing and torpedo-dropping but in May 1943 it was re-allocated to anti-submarine duties, beginning patrols from south-west England in June. At the end of October, crews began conversion to Liberators and patrols over the Bay of Biscay continued with this type. In September 1944 the squadron moved to Scotland, where patrols were mixed with attacks on enemy shipping off the Danish and Norwegian coasts until the end of the war. On 4 June 1945, the squadron was disbanded.
