Spanish Striker Aduriz Announces Retirement From Soccer
'Although twice wounded and suffering from loss of blood, Guardsman Charlton again lifted his machine gun on to the fence, now having only one arm with which to fire and reload. Nevertheless, he still continued to inflict casualties on the enemy, until finally he was hit for the third time and collapsed. He died later of his wounds in enemy hands.
Chauvin and another officer broke into the apartment and wrestled resident Ira Latrell Toles to the ground. The officers reported that in the struggle Toles reached for one of their weapons and so Chauvin shot him in the abdomen.
On Wednesday, Ben Crump, the attorney representing Floyd's family, said without video footage of the incident, he believes police 'would have given a false narrative and they would've swept it under the rug,' he told Today.
His citation for his VC takes up the story: 'Whereupon, entirely on his own initiative, Guardsman Charlton decided to counterattack the enemy. Quickly recovering the Browning [machine gun] from his damaged tank, he advanced up the road in full view of the enemy, firing the Browning from the hip.
Former NBA player Stephen Jackson (right) posted on social media calling Floyd (left) his 'twin', as the two men played on both the Yates football and basketball team and grew up in Houston's third ward. He told DailyMail.com: 'I never saw him play [basketball] in high school. But they say he was better at football. He was a tight end. They made it to the state championship, and lost in the state championship at Yates. He was a dual threat. He was a dual athlete'
Floyd, a 46-year-old black man, died on Monday after passing out while a white Minneapolis police officer kneeled on his neck for eight minutes during an arrest that was caught on camera , sparking protests in the Minnesota city and outrage around the country
However, new video footage, obtained by FOX 9, has shed light on the moments leading up to Floyd's arrest, showing two officers manhandling and forcibly removing him from his car as he is placed in handcuffs outside the Cup Foods grocery store on 38th and Chicago Ave in south Minneapolis.
Fans of revered hip hop artist DJ Screw (pictured) celebrated Floyd's musical career by sharing links of tracks he recorded under his rapping name 'Big Floyd' alongside the legendary Houston musician. DJ Screw, whose real name was Robert Earl Davis Jr, died in 2000 of a drug overdose after releasing 35 mixtapes. The rapper was posthumously made an official Texas Music Pioneer by Governor Rick Perry
Officer Tou Thao was sued in 2017 for excessive use of force after throwing to the ground, punching and kicking a handcuffed black man after stopping him on the street while he walked home with his eight-month pregnant wife, according to court claims.
He liked his beer and his fun. He lived the British way and died the British way. 'That was Ed who goes down in the ruddy annals of British history for one of the greatest bits of heroism in this war… To me, Ed still lives. He will march with us through London. You won't see him, but he'll be there.'
Former comrades of Charlton were overjoyed by the news of his VC, announced more than a year after the action. Sergeant Hugh Gallagher, who had been wounded and taken prisoner during the April 21 ambush, wrote to Charlton's parents saying: 'I am writing this letter to you in reference to your son Eddie.
Several soldiers were unable to pull out in time and were eventually forced to surrender. It later emerged, however, that, with his party in danger of being overrun, Charlton, aged 24, had decided that attack was the best form of defence against a large force from the 15th Panzer Grenadier Regiment supported by six SP guns.
There is no doubt in my mind that Charlton's VC action was not just the final one before VE Day but that it represents one of the finest wartime actions in the decoration's long and rich history. Days before VE Day, this is the right time to remember and to honour one of 'the bravest of the brave'.
In fact, after many soldiers on both sides were interviewed, Charlton's VC was announced in the final wartime Honours List published on May 2, 1946. It is extremely rare but not unprecedented for the testimonials of enemy servicemen to play a part in the award of a VC.
'Immediately, despite intense enemy fire, he mounted his machine gun on a nearby fence, which he used to support his injured left arm. He stood firing thus for a further ten minutes until he was then again hit in the left arm, which fell away shattered and useless.
Eyewitnesses saw Charlton and his co-driver race from their own Sherman after it had been hit and take shelter between two houses. With three of the four tanks knocked out and with the Irish Guards almost entirely surrounded and short of ammunition, the order was given to retreat.
Known as both 'Eddie' and 'Ed', he became friends with Guardsman James Mendes, who said later that 'Ed's regiment was the biggest thing in his life'. Charlton penned several letters home, including one in 1942 in which he seemed disappointed not to have seen frontline action. In fact, the decoration to Flying Officer Lloyd Trigg for bravery in the air on August 11, 1943, is the only VC to be announced solely on evidence given by the enemy. Trigg, of the Royal New Zealand Air Force but serving with 200 Squadron, RAF, was decorated posthumously after two German officers testified how he had attacked their surfaced U-boat at a range of just 50ft in his Liberator bomber, despite having been hit previously by anti-aircraft fire.

Then, in the words of one eyewitness, 'all hell was let loose', with most of the fire coming from the right flank. Shells, mortars and machinegun fire rained down on the soldiers: a young corporal was the first to die, hit by a German SP (self-propelled) gun so that he fell back down into his tank.
He found himself on the outskirts of Wistedt at first light on April 21, 1945, as a driver in one of four tanks rolling into the outskirts of the village, some with men riding on the back of the vehicles. Soon, in the best traditions of the British Army, they stopped to set about 'brewing up' using their Tommy cookers, or portable stoves.

'The heroism and determination of this Guardsman in his selfimposed task were beyond all praise. Even his German captors were amazed at his valour. 'Guardsman Charlton's courageous and self-sacrificing action not only inflicted extremely heavy casualties on the enemy and retrieved his comrades from a desperate situation, but also enabled the position to be speedily recaptured.'
George Floyd was not only a rapper who recorded music with the late influential hip hop artist DJ Screw and a star football player for his Texas high school team, but a father of two young girls, including a six-year-old, who he now leaves behind.
Today I am one of the happiest men in England after I had seen in the paper of his reward, the VC. It was only through his gallantry that saved my life that I am able to write to you. The work he did that day is indescribable, he saved quite a lot of our lives though badly wounded.'
Instead, however, he volunteered for the Irish Guards. Still only 19, he wanted to see frontline action and hoped to join the police after the war, knowing that the Manchester and Salford forces employed only former Guardsmen. He was called up the following year and mobilised on September 19, 1940. After training at Caterham in Surrey, Charlton, the middle of three brothers, joined the 2nd (Armoured) Battalion, Irish Guards, in 1942.
However, before they could enjoy their hot tea, the men were ambushed by a large enemy force. As Lieutenant (later Captain) Barry Quinan stood in the middle of the road looking through binoculars to see what lay ahead, an armour-piercing shell passed so close to his head that it blew his black beret off before hitting a house behind him.
George Floyd (pictured in the 1990s, in jersey 88) was not only a rapper who recorded music with the late influential hip hop artist DJ Screw and a star football player for his Texas high school team, but a father of two young girls, who he now leaves behind. Floyd was loved by many on the football team at Jack Yates High School in Houston where he played wide receiver. A fellow teammate tweeted his sadness and anger when he learned of Floyd's death
Charlton's posthumous VC was presented to his parents, Albert and Edith, at an investiture at Buckingham Palace on October 29, 1946. He was originally buried by the Germans near Elsdorf but he was reinterred and his grave is now situated at the Becklingen War Cemetery, Soltau, Germany.
Cops were reported to have located Floyd, who was suspected of forgery, in his car around 8pm before ordering him to exit the vehicle, according to a police statement. A spokesman alleged Floyd got out of the car before 'physically resisting officers'. However, new video footage, obtained by FOX 9 , has shed light on the moments leading up to Floyd's arrest, showing two officers manhandling and forcibly removing him from his car as he is placed in handcuffs outside the Cup Foods grocery store on 38th and Chicago Ave in south MinneapolisIn this Thursday, April 30, 2020 photo, Tuba Parlak, 39, a pole dancing performer and instructor performs at her studio in Istanbul, during an online training session for students watching from home, due to the coronavirus restrictions.

According to a report by a police watchdog nonprofit Communities United Against Police Brutality, in 2006 a man called Wayne Reyes pulled a shotgun on five police officers including Chauvin, and the officers shot and killed Reyes.
The new videos have shed light on the events leading up to Floyd's death, which has sparked outrage and questions overs officers' alleged use of force on a suspect accused of a non-violent offense.
However, by May 10, 1945, two days after VE Day, the recommendation was marked 'unsuccessful'. This was because it had emerged that Charlton was dead and that the MM could not be awarded posthumously.

An initial statement released by the Minneapolis Police Department on Tuesday did not include details of officers' altercation with Floyd and only mentioned he had suffered 'medical distress' following the arrest.
In the wake of Floyd's death, the four arresting officers were fired Tuesday. It has since been revealed the white officer who was seen forcefully kneeling on Floyd's neck was involved in a fatal police shooting. Another one of the fired officers paid a $25,000 settlement after being sued for using excessive force in a 2017 arrest.
His decoration was all the more remarkable because it relied heavily on the testimony of enemy soldiers who, once they were taken prisoner, told how they witnessed Charlton's last stand. Writing now, just days before the 75th anniversary of VE Day on May 8, I feel privileged to be able to tell the story of this soldier's valour.
In the CCTV footage from a restaurant, a handcuffed Floyd is seen sitting on the ground as a police officer, who was not seen in the original viral video, speaks to him before picking him up and holding him against the wall.
With Allied forces advancing through Germany itself from the Rhine to the Elbe, XXX Corps had reached the outskirts of the ancient city of Bremen by April 20. The commanders were keen to prevent enemy reinforcements reaching Bremen from Hamburg to the north-east and, with this in mind, the 2nd Battalion, Irish Guards - part of the Guards Armoured Division - were ordered to block their route.

Using the video conferencing app Zoom, Parlak teaches the vigorous exercise from her studio in Istanbul´s hip Cihangir district. She limits her classes to five students as she did in the studio, and says Zoom has made it easier to critique her students´ moves with all video images lined up on her screen.

Drop-out rates are high in this challenging exercise, Parlak says. Her students are looking forward to returning to the studio but it remains uncertain when Turkey will allow sports facilities to re-open.
"We are mourning the loss of a cultural icon, Andre Harrell, a chief architect of the modern hip-hop and R&B sound," BET President Scott Mills said in a statement Saturday. "Andre was tremendously excited about sharing the origin story of Uptown Records, and its pivotal role in the urban music landscape. With his tragic passing, BET is committed to ensuring that the Uptown limited series event tells both the Uptown story and Andre´s story - that of the incredible music innovator, man and friend to so many."

By late April 1945, the German army was in retreat and, after nearly six long years of war, the Allies were finally poised to defeat Adolf Hitler. For many British servicemen, particularly those who had served for all or most of the Second World War, thoughts inevitably turned to surviving the last battles and returning safely to their loved ones.
According to a 2011 report in local newspaper the Pioneer Press, Chauvin and others arrived at a South Minneapolis apartment around 2am after a woman called 911 and the dispatcher heard her yell to a man to stop hitting her.
Those who survived the ambush and returned unscathed did not know exactly who among those missing had been killed and who had been taken prisoner. In the hope that he was still alive and in the knowledge that he had shown great bravery, Charlton was initially recommended for the Military Medal (MM).

Connolly had not personally seen all of Charlton's last stand but he had been told by a senior German officer about his courage.

NEW YORK (AP) - Andre Harrell, the Uptown Records founder who shaped the sound of hip-hop and R&B in the late ´80s and ´90s with acts such as Mary J. Blige and Heavy D and also launched the career of mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs, has died. He was 59.
Among the advancing party, as the drizzle fell, was Guardsman Edward Colquhoun Charlton. Born in Rowlands Gill, near Gateshead, Co Durham, on June 15, 1920, he had worked in a Manchester abattoir after leaving school at 14 and was encouraged to join the Royal Army Service Corps, whose roles included supplying food for the Army, when war broke out in September 1939.
According to the legal filing, after the arrest the officers took Ferguson to hospital, then pulled him out and took him to jail with only his underwear and T-shirt on, ignoring medical medical staff's pleas to let him dress.
Several members of the entertainment community mourned Harrell´s death on social media, including Swizz Beatz, Erykah Badu, L.A. Reid, D-Nice and Lena Waithe. Usher called Harrell a "KING" in his post.
The historic send-off deserves to look good, according to SpaceX. It already has a nice ring. Musk named his rocket after the "Star Wars" Millennium Falcon. The capsule name stems from "Puff the Magic Dragon," Musk´s jab at all the doubters when he started SpaceX in 2002.

In 1990, Diddy enters Harrell´s office. He received an internship at Uptown and quickly rose the ranks after finding success with just-signed acts including R&B group Jodeci and Blige, who was dubbed the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul with the release of her 1992 debut, "What´s the 411?" Uptown also released Notorious B.I.G.´s first single, 1993´s "Party and Bull----," which was featured on a film soundtrack.Parlak, a former arts and culture journalist, started pole dancing in 2015 and turned her passion to full time profession.

Yet for one man, Guardsman Edward Charlton of the Irish Guards, his finest hour was yet to come. For just days before Hitler's suicide and, later, Germany's surrender, he would display such outstanding bravery that he would be awarded the final Victoria Cross (VC) of the war in Europe.
Hurley and Behnken will emerge through the same double doors used on July 16, 1969, by Apollo 11´s Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins - the Operations and Checkout Building now bears Armstrong´s name.
"I didn´t want to sit there and be the one confining Puff because the corporation was telling me to do that. I´m not built that way," Harrell said in an interview with Wall Street Journal in 2014. "I told Puff he needs to go and create his own opportunity: `You´re red-hot right now. I´m really letting you go so you can get rich.´"
Connolly set about informing senior officers of the precise details and they were able to confirm them with German prisoners who had observed the counterattack at first hand.Those who bore witness to Charlton's bravery included Lieutenant Hans-Jurgen von Bulow, the company commander who was awarded an Iron Cross First Class for leading the successful attack at Wistedt.
