The strategies of naval warfare by Corbett focused on the art of naval warfare and defined the differences between land warfare and naval warfare.

Within eight months of Captain Video's debut, two other landmark series were launched-Tom Corbett, Space Cadet ( 8 / 50-6 / 55 ) and Space Patrol ( 3 / 50-2 / 55 ).

The show starred David Frost, John Cleese and Barker's future comedy partner Ronnie Corbett, whom he had met in 1963 when Corbett was the barman at the Buckstone Club near the Haymarket Theatre, and the two became friends.

Corbett stated in his autobiography that the two had gravitated towards each other because of their similar backgrounds ; neither had attended university, while many of the other Frost Report cast and writers had.

Holyoake became Prime Minister two months before the 1957 election, when outgoing Prime Minister Sidney Holland retired due to ill-health, and also became Minister of Māori Affairs on the retirement of Ernest Corbett.

The Indian hunter and naturalist Jim Corbett described an incident in which two tigers fought and killed a large bull elephant.

Corbett said he and Barker were drawn together as two grammar school boys who had not gone to university.

Corbett married actress and dancer Anne Hart in 1965 ; they have two daughters, actresses Emma and Sophie Corbett.

This argument was accepted by the judge, and the legal test for gender in the UK had been since been based on the judgement in Corbett v Corbett ; it had even led to the curiosity of a legal marriage between two lesbians since one had been born male.

Corbett played the leading role in two short-lived television series.

Fighting under the name James J. Braddock ( ostensibly to follow the pattern set by two prior world boxing champions, James J. Corbett and James J. Jeffries ), he was known for his powerful right hand, granite chin and an amazing comeback from a floundering career.

Corbett spent two months in Ireland from August to October 2009 helping ( behind the scenes ) the " Yes " campaign in the Irish referendum on the Lisbon Treaty, which resulted in an overwhelming 67 % in favour.

On May 21, 1891, Corbett fought Peter " Black Prince " Jackson, a much-heralded bout between cross-town rivals, since Corbett and Jackson were boxing instructors at San Francisco's two most prestigious athletic clubs.

Corbett treasured his title and viewed it as the ultimate promotional tool for his two main sources of income, theatrical performances and boxing exhibitions.

While on a helicopter tour over downtown Toronto, Tod Stiles and Linc Case ( Martin Milner and Glenn Corbett, respectively ) spot a quintet of girl musicians ( two were played by Lynda Day and Jessica Walter ), who were stranded in the city, sleeping on the benches in the covered north grandstand.

The Thak man-eating tigress, when skinned by Corbett, revealed two old gunshot wounds ; one in her shoulder had become septic, and as Corbett suggested, could have been the reason for the tigress's having turned man-eater.

In 1950, owner Jack Corbett sold the team in August to Dick Saunders and Tom Love, two young El Paso building contractors.

Darrell is said to haunt the site of his death, known as Darrell's stile ( or Style, as well as the church at Ramsbury, two miles away ), although one famed clairvoyant, Tom Corbett, detected nothing of the sort.

A contemporary of heavyweight champion " Gentleman Jim " ( James J. Corbett ), the two fought professionally three times.

Through the next two years she performed various parts in Bubbling Brown Sugar and television appearances in Seaside Special ( on Saturday, June 25, 1977 ), Supersonic ( on Saturday, March 5, 1977-show 40 ), The Ronnie Corbett Show, Jack Parnell's Show, Vince Hill's Musical Time Machine and Bruce Forsyth's Bring on the Girls.

While many theorists of naval warfare tried to mechanically adopt land warfare concepts to the maritime environment, Corbett countered that the interest and requirement of naval warfare differed in fundamental ways from those of land warfare.

Corbett ’ s principles of sea control, focus on the enemy, and manoeuvre for tactical advantage form the foundation of today ’ s naval manoeuvre warfare.

For the first few years of its existence, LB & SCR trains used the former L & GR lines from Corbett ’ s Lane into London, but by 1849 the viaducts had been widened sufficiently to allow the company its own dedicated tracks to approach the station.

The Woodgrange Estate Conservation Area is a residential area with predominantly double-fronted Victorian three and four bedroomed houses built between 1887 and 1892 by developer Thomas Corbett and sons who went on to oversee the construction of more than 1, 100 houses to exploit the transport links provided by one of the first Essex lines, opened by Eastern Counties Railway in 1839, running through Forest Gate in 1840.

a. Corbett felt that protecting lines of communication was much more difficult to enforce at sea than on land.

Corbett felt that superior concentration thus not only deterred the weaker opponent from seeking battle but presented him with an opportunity to attack his enemy ’ s exposed national lines of communication.

The engineer of the new line, William Cubitt, was also engineer of the London and Croydon Railway ( L & CR ), which planned to use L & GR lines as far as Corbett ’ s Lane Southwark before turning south towards Croydon.

The legendary hunter Jim Corbett, a resident of Treetops at the time, wrote the now famous lines in the visitors ' log book:

Because of these physical differences, Corbett analyzed naval warfare in its own terms, having its own unique characteristics.

Corbett ’ s strategic defence advocated such measures as an intense local offensive, the projection of land forces, various types of blockades, and raids on enemy trade routes.

Moreover, Corbett recognized that once the enemy has been sufficiently weakened on sea and on land, the shift to the strategic offensive should not be delayed.

Corbett ’ s second point was that in wars between contiguous continental states “ there will be no strategical obstacle to his enemy ’ s being able to use his whole force ”.

Frederick Corbett VC ( 17 September 1853 – 25 September 1912 ) was an English recipient of the Victoria Cross, the highest award for gallantry in the face of the enemy that can be awarded to British and Commonwealth forces.

The Citation in The London Gazette on 16 February 1883 read " During the reconnaissance upon, Kafr Dowar, Egypt, on 5 August 1882, the Mounted Infantry, with which Private Corbett was serving, came under a hot fire from the enemy and suffered some loss, including Lieutenant Howard Vyse, mortally wounded.

He has written readers ' guides to the Aubrey-Maturin series of naval novels by Patrick O ' Brian, as well as works on Alfred Thayer Mahan and Sir Julian Corbett.

Sir Julian Stafford Corbett ( 12 November 1854, Walcot House, Kennington Road, Lambeth – 21 September 1922, Manor Farm, Stopham, Pulborough, Sussex ) was a prominent British naval historian and geostrategist of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, whose works helped shape the Royal Navy's reforms of that era.

Corbett was a good friend and ally of naval reformer Admiral John " Jackie " Fisher, the First Sea Lord.

Corbett came to naval history in mid-life and from a civilian background.

Corbett became known as one of the Royal Navy ’ s leading intellectuals, and from 1901 to 1922 was writing regularly on naval history and strategy.

Like his American contemporary, Rear Admiral Alfred Thayer Mahan of the U. S. Navy, Corbett saw naval warfare as part of a nation's larger policies.

Another major influence on Corbett was Professor John Knox Laughton, arguably the first naval historian, and of whom Corbett has been described as his ' protégé '.

Corbett ’ s primary objective was to fill the void in British naval doctrine by formalizing the theories and principles of naval warfare.

Corbett was working from within the naval community and trying to influence the naval establishment.

Through his lectures at the Naval War College, Corbett was trying to convey to the attending flag-officers his ideas of limited war and the strategic defence which were very different from the accepted norms of naval theory and strategy of the time.

At the turn of the century Corbett emerged as one of the first authors in the development of modern naval doctrine.

Instead, Corbett focused his thoughts on the nature of maritime strategy and what the meaning of naval warfare meant to the power of a nation.

c. Corbett did not believe that the concentration of naval forces at sea was the highest and simplest law of strategy.

Corbett felt that superior concentration of naval forces created yet another serious problem.
