New edition and philological commentary of a long and complex votive inscription from the time of Commodus consisting of a poem in Latin (written in dactylic hexameters) followed, as a complement and amplification, by a Greek text in prose with a certain poetic color. The inscription is dedicated to the Nymph of a thermal sanctuary, mentioned by what appears to be a name or local epithet, and consists both of the commemoration of the fulfillment of a vow and in the narration of the annual festivals that the military unit (numerus) commanded by the dedicator celebrated, through votive offerings and sacrifices, both in honor of the Nymph of the place and of Asclepius, Panacea, Artemis and Hypnos. It is also narrated, in the Greek text, a sanatio and the corresponding offerings of thanksgiving. The use of Greek in this epigraph seems to have to be explained for a reason of cultural prestige

The article deals with issues related to the study of the problem space of the phenomenon of «professional adaptation of young offi cers», the study of the possibilities of pedagogic support for military specialists in the adaptation process in the conditions of its organisation in the military unit. Topicality of this direction is determined by the high social signifi cance of military work, the special nature of its organisation and implementation, which requires increasing the effi ciency of the process and the result of professional adaptation of young military specialists who are able to quickly «enter» a new professional environment, updating their personal and professional competences and qualities necessary to ensure the success of professional activities in the military environment in the framework of the implementation of functions for offi cial purpose in accordance with the requirements. Theoretical analysis of scientifi c works devoted to the problem of professional adaptation of the individual is carried out, the content and procedural characteristics of this phenomenon are determined, and its signifi cance for increasing the effi ciency of professional activity of military specialists is updated. On the basis of the conducted research, the spectrum of diffi culties that arise in young offi cers during the adaptation period, located within the boundaries of the problem fi elds of service-organisational, psychophysiological, communicative, social and household components of professional work, is revealed. It is established that increasing the effectiveness of professional adaptation of young offi cers and minimising the diffi culties that arise is possible with the use of mechanisms of pedagogic support of the individual in the adaptation process, implemented at various levels of management of the military unit with the involvement of its resource potential. A set of conditions aimed at providing pedagogic support to young offi cers during the adaptation period, which contribute to improving its effectiveness, is identifi ed. The results of the study established that the organisation of systematic work on the pedagogic support of professional adaptation of young military specialists, implemented at various levels of military control in the framework of the indicated conditions is an important factor in achieving personal and professional success of young offi cers, their development in space military environment.

The training team, no doubt, plays a well-known role in this or that success of the military education and formation of each military unit. As the main ranger of the military un ter-officers and the closest teachers of the formation in our army, the training command, according to the meaning underlying this institution, can even serve to some extent as an indicator when assessing the progress of the military education of an entire military unit. Therefore, the study of different living conditions and conditions of the training team, in the form of improvement and improvement of it, is not devoid of interest; moreover, the issue of providing the army with good, appropriate to their assignment, non-commissioned officers has not yet received proper permission. 1)

The Great War

Poison gas warfare was initiated in the Great War by a German military unit that included five future Nobel laureates: James Franck, Fritz Haber, Otto Hahn, Gustav Hertz and Walther Nernst. It was Haber's idea to use poison gas. To implement gas warfare he devised an organization that meshed the academy into the military–industrial complex. Later three other Nobel laureates, Emil Fischer, Heinrich Wieland and Richard Willstätter, contributed to the enterprise. Huge quantities of poisons were used by both sides during the war, because they were well adapted to static trench warfare, even though—which is a surprise to many—they were substantially less deadly than explosives.

A forced-choice, bipolar, Jungian inventory of representative items inspired by the Dictionary of Occupational Titles, the Strong-Campbell Interest Inventory and the Self-directed Search was administered to a military sample of 73 U. S. Air Force (USAF) and U. S. Army (USA) Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) cadets and a nonmilitary sample of 74 civilian graduate students. Fourier transforms of the general trigonometric polynomial depicted from the graphed point plots of the statistically significant data indicated (a) a “direct-current” characterization of the military sample and (b) an “alternating-current” characterization of the nonmilitary sample. Equivalent system models were extrapolated from behavioral and clinical psychology, i.e., “paranoid” and “schizoid,” and personality psychology, i.e., “authoritarian” and “egalitarian.” The resulting characterizations from the physics model were pragmatically discussed as possible predictors of (a) identifying probable successful U. S. Service Academy enrollees, (b) profiling effective military recruiters, and (c) maximizing the potential combat effectiveness of the military unit.
