CONVENTIONAL AND NUCLEAR WEAPONS - ENERGY PRODUCTION AND ATOMIC PHYSICS SECTION I - GENERAL Introduction. As a first step in developing an understanding of the medical implications of nuclear warfare, it is essential to understand how a nuclear weapon differs from a conventional high explosive Size: 4MB.
There are two types of nuclear weapons—fission bombs use fission alone, whereas thermonuclear bombs use fission to ignite fusion.
Both types of weapons produce huge numbers of nuclear reactions in a very short time. Energy yields are measured in kilotons or megatons of equivalent conventional explosives and range from kT to more than 20 MT.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s announcement on Friday that the United States is suspending the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty should worry everyone. The I.N.F. is a landmark treaty and it has made the world a safe place. It was the first nuclear agreement to ever outlaw an entire class of weapons.
The Trump administration has dismissed the I.N.F. as irrelevant because Russia has abrogated its commitment to it by developing a treaty-busting cruise missile of its own. The Russians, for their part, claim that it is the United States that started this race to the bottom by announcing its withdrawal from the Antiballistic Missile treaty in 2001 and building missile defense systems near Russia’s borders. Regardless, it should be kept in place.
The turn away from arms control agreements is not happening in a vacuum. The National Nuclear Security Administration, the part of the Department of Energy that oversees weapons production, announced this week that it has begun production of a new low-yield nuclear weapon that is about one-third as powerful as the bomb used on Hiroshima. These bombs are considered by some “small enough to use.” It could be ready for deployment by the end of the year.
Welcome to the new age of nuclear instability. This is a perilous time in which agreements that have restrained the most dangerous weapons on the planet are dissipating and threatening new technologies — including cyberweapons that could attack nuclear command and control systems — are advancing quickly. The likelihood of a nuclear accident or blunder seems to be growing by the day.
Major nuclear powers are now investing heavily in their arsenals. Pakistan has the fastest-growing arsenal on the planet; the United States plans to spend more than .2 trillion over the next 30 years on weapons that increase the targeting and kill capability of strategic nuclear weapons; China, too, continues to modernize its nuclear forces, seemingly intent on creating a second-strike nuclear capability with investments in platforms based on land, air and sea.
To make matters worse, there are few channels of communication between adversaries — particularly the United States and Russia, which maintain more than 90 percent of the world’s nuclear weapons. There is also a revived belief that nuclear weapons could be used. Russia’s military doctrine is increasingly reliant on them.
A report issued by the director of National Intelligence last February recognized that “the risk of interstate conflict, including among great powers, is higher than at any time since the end of the Cold War.” The report added, “the threat of state and nonstate use of weapons of mass destruction will continue to grow.”
The good news is that the downward spiral can be stopped.
Congress has an important role to play. Adam Smith, the new chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, has said that the Trump administration’s nuclear spending plans are neither necessary for deterrence nor affordable. His committee will have sway over which defense systems get funded and which do not. He can slow significantly plans to deploy these new weapons.
The new Democratic majority in the House can and should hold hearings on whether conventional weapons offer a similarly strategic substitute for nuclear weapons, while creating greater flexibility in how they can be used. Many experts, such as former Secretary of Defense William Perry, believe that a conventional response would be as effective if not more so. Certainly, America’s decision makers owe their country the debate before spending large amounts and unnecessarily contributing to a new arms race.
The Trump administration should also take up Russia’s offer to start negotiations about the extensions of the New Start arms control agreement, which is set to expire in 2021. Upon taking office, the administration dismissed this offer almost immediately. Indeed, there’s good reason to be skeptical of it. But avoiding talks provides Russia with an easy propaganda win and allows it to continue violating its few remaining treaty obligations. For its part, Moscow should send serious negotiators to the talks — and not political officials with no decision-making abilities, as it has in the past.
Congress can help find ways to restart talks between the United States and Russia, including military-to-military ones, focused narrowly on nuclear weapons. Such talks were common during the Cold War but are largely absent today. They should be resumed now, as nuclear accidents and misperceptions become more likely. The two sides have a shared interest in protecting the future of humanity. But such dialogue is made harder as President Trump struggles with accusations of undisclosed ties to Moscow. Dialogue with Russia would be a juicy target for Democrats to use against Republicans, in the short-term sport of election politics. Restraint will be needed.
All players — on all sides, Republican and Democrat, American and Russian — need to act like sensible grown-ups when it comes to nuclear security. The world has entered a dangerous new era of instability. The Trump administration’s actions, like building smaller-yield nuclear weapons and pulling out of arms control agreements, are only making it worse.

Is it true, or only Pakistani propaganda?
It is true, and the Indian government has acknowledged it with regret.
Which missile was it?
From the flight path described, we can surmise that it was a BrahMos missile.
India developed it in collaboration with Russia and therefore named it after two rivers in the two countries: Brahmaputra and Moskva.
Brahmaputra, of course, is in India and Moskva (pronounced Musk-Wah) river is in Russia, after which the Russian capital gets its name, but is called Moscow in English.
What type of missile is it?
BrahMos is a supersonic cruise missile.
Supersonic means it flies faster than the speed of sound, up to three times, depending on the flight profile, which can vary between a few feet above the earth to very high altitudes.
And cruise means it has an air breathing jet engine and so it must travel within the earth’s atmosphere, unlike a ballistic missile which is rocket propelled into the space and then free-falls back to the target, using only earth’s gravity.
Was the missile armed?
As a matter of routine precaution, warheads – even conventional ones, but especially nuclear ones – are fitted on the weapons only after multi-layered clearances which need to be doubly authenticated.
And an actual firing – in anger, as the soldiers call it – is only authorised under specific circumstances.
Thus, we can be sure that the missile which got accidentally launched was unarmed.
So, even if the relations are not too cordial, accidental firing of an armed missile across the border is not a possibility.
What if the missile was armed?
There is an additional critical mechanism in all weapons systems called Safety and Arming Unit (SAFU).
It can be programmed pre-launch to prevent a premature detonation of the warhead. SAFU can also be controlled post launch, if the missile has a two-way data link.
What caused this accidental launch?
A short-circuit in launch command electronics can cause this kind of accident, but there are supposed to be minimum three layers of safety in any weapons system.
So, we will have to wait for the report of the Court of Inquiry to understand what exactly went wrong.
That something did go wrong is beyond doubt, but what is encouraging and heart-warming is that both India and Pakistan have handled the situation quite maturely.
India has unconditionally accepted its mistake, and dropping the usual jingoistic rhetoric, Pakistan has not used it for its normal anti-India rant.
Why couldn’t we change the missile’s direction?
The missile has a pre-programmed navigation system, and a major course correction is not possible after launch.
How much of the missile is recoverable for study?
That depends upon the impact point, the softness of the soil and various other factors.
From the photographs available online, very little seems recoverable, but from my experience in aircraft accident investigation, I know experts can piece together a lot of information from burnt and soiled pieces of equipment.
In any case, it is a matter of physics, which applies universally, so there’s not much in this missile that is really very different from other missiles the world over.
Therefore, the remains of that missile will not cause too much excitement, like the time when a Soviet pilot defected with his MiG 25 to Japan in 1976, offering the West a peek into many secret Soviet capabilities that were shockingly ahead of times then.
What about the conspiracy theories one hears about this?
Well, I too have seen some, but the best one, in the well-informed world of WhatsApp University, was this.
Sequence of Events: 1) India bombs Balakot. 2) Pakistan is caught off-guard. 3) Pakistan buys Chinese Air Defence systems. 4) Russia invades Ukraine. 5) China supports Russia and prepares to invade Taiwan. 6) Taiwan calls India to buy the BrahMos missiles. 7) Taiwan wants assurance that BrahMos missile can evade the Chinese Air Defence systems. 8) India test fires a BrahMos missiles into Pakistan. 9) Proves that the Chinese Air Defence systems can’t detect the BrahMos missile. 10) Taiwan places the order for BrahMos missiles.
Fiction though it is, I found it very interesting.
What happens now?
Statement on accidental firing of missile
Posted On: 11 MAR 2022 6:33PM by PIB Delhi
On 9 March 2022, in the course of a routine maintenance, a technical malfunction led to the accidental firing of a missile.
The Government of India has taken a serious view and ordered a high-level Court of Enquiry.
It is learnt that the missile landed in an area of Pakistan. While the incident is deeply regrettable, it is also a matter of relief that there has been no loss of life due to the accident.
In a carefully worded public statement, India has acknowledged and accepted the mistake, while obliquely hinting that the missile did not carry any warhead.
One could wonder why the statement came two days too late, but there must have been immediate passing of information on the 9th itself, possibly followed by hot tempers as well as some undiplomatic verbal exchanges between the military brasses in the choicest Punjabi!
Expectedly, the social media are flooded with jokes and questions about the incident, from the light-hearted to the ominous:
‘Indian missile landed in Pakistan. In retaliation, Pakistan fired a missile, which too landed in Pakistan!’
The most alarming, of course, was the question, ‘What if it had a nuclear warhead?’
Pakistan has demanded a ‘joint probe’ into the incident and that of course, will never happen!
They’ll whine and whimper a bit, but beyond that, nothing more will, and should happen.
That, in itself, is a sign that despite the regular, seemingly trigger-happy, tactical level incidents, there are robust strategic confidence-building measures (CBMs) in place between the two countries to avoid accidental flare-ups.
And that is the best outcome of this accident.

Last week Rocksteady Studios unveiled their new show Arkham Insider, their first episode featured a shot by shot breakdown of the “All Who Follow You” trailer. At the end of episode they answered 5 questions that had been submitted by the community.
The first question out of the gate was, “Can you take out tanks without using the Batmobile?” Utilizing Batman’s Disruptor, you can do exactly that.
However you might be wondering what else you can do with it, well… here are the answers to that very line of thinking.
The Disruptor has three charges per engagement, requiring Batman to carefully select how best to use each charge in order to compliment his plan of attack. The core abilities at Batman’s disposal out of the box are:
- Jamming enemies weapons when they attempt to fire at Batman
- Exploding enemy weapons (by using two charges on the same weapon)
- Rigging weapon crates to shock enemies who try to arm themselves
- Tagging vehicles with tracking devices for Batmobile pursuits
Expanding Batman’s Tactical Options
The Disruptor provides Batman with greater tactical flexibility in any engagement before it even begins. Before combat, the Disruptor can be used to jam the weapons of an opponent, buying Batman precious time to gain the advantage and land the first attack. In Predator scenarios, the Disruptor can be employed to target various enemy devices by rendering them inactive, or even turning them against their owners.
Additionally, the Disruptor is equipped with a long range scope, allowing Batman to survey and set up control of the situation from the rooftops of Gotham City with pinpoint accuracy.
The Disruptor has an extensive selection of upgrades to choose from – each providing their own unique advantage to Batman.
For example, the ‘additional charge’ upgrade provides more simultaneous options for each engagement, allowing additional greater situational control over the devices and weapons that could become an obstacle.
Alternatively, a high level upgrade is available to Batman allowing him to hack and disrupt the turret of the Arkham Knight’s Drone Tanks. This creates the opportunity for Batman to draw the Drones attention on foot, only for its turret to backfire and self-destruct when it attempts to fire.

Before you put one of these on your weapon, you must make sure the weapon is good enough to spend 100k tokens on. First, you must put it into a category: Relayer or Weapon.
These weapons will generally have resists, HCI/DCI, or other properties that carry over onto equipment other than weapons. See here for properties that apply to relayers. You won't usually find them to be heavy with properties from the Weapon Hits Category, Weapon Hits will only work on weapons used in combat.
Depending on the weapon and play style, the properties you add and extend on your weapon will vary. You'll generally be adding properties from under the Weapon Hits Category of the Weapon Leveling Menu.
The Ideal Weapon will generally have:
Hit Lightning and/or Fireball
Hit Mana Leech
Hit Lower Attack(HLA) and/or Hit Lower Defense(HLD)
HLA/HLD vary - If you have a War Hammer, you'll probably want HLA, as it will help keep you alive longer. A Yumi or other single target DPS(Damage per Second) would want HLD, as you aren't going to get hit and damage is key there.
After these stats, it's mostly preference. Hit Life Leech(HLL) is nice, but dependent on play style. Hit Stam Leech(HSL) CAN be good, but better for Felluca, and especially on a Whirlwind Weapon.
The only time you'll really want AoE on your weapon is if it has Whirlwind. Whirlwind ◊ procs on every target within range, meaning you can hit 9 targets, providing 8 surround you and you are standing on 1. You can proc 9 Lightnings and/or Fireballs and 2-3 Hit Areas, dropping incredible amounts of damage.
You can only gain experience if you yourself kill the monster using the weapon. It won't work if it's by a spell or if your pet kills it (unless the weapon is lvl 50 or above in which case pet kills give 1/8th xp).
All dungeons in Tram and Fel on excelsior have increased spawn. The added spawns in Trammel give less experience (most likely due to the ease of recalling to any area or using the teleporters to get to them). Fel dungeons, however, tend to give more owing to double weapon experience in Fel.
Each time a weapon gains a level, it will gain a certain amount of spending points (aka sp).
Crafted Weapons will gain 3 sp per level.
Artifact & Looted (Non-Crafted) Weapons will gain 5 sp per level.
These points are used to upgrade a weapons properties; Single click on the weapon and select Information, and a gump will pop up.


If you read the guides for Mass Effect, however, they all seem to recommend that first-time players to Mass Effect sign on as a Soldier class. They cite its survivability (which is definitely true), as well as its lethality (also true). Soldiers are the only class permitted to use an assault rifle, which most agree is the most well-rounded weapon in the game. It also has the unique ability Immunity, which provides the soldier with short-term damage resistance that makes it almost impossible to take down in a fight. Its certainly true that they are a powerful and tough class.
However, while you see nods to the Vanguard, I think its underappreciated as a class. The Vanguard is sort of the equivalent to a fighter/mage: it has skill with shotguns, a lethal close-range weapon, and yet still has access to powerful biotics to enhance its capabilities. The downside is that it does not get access to heavy armor, and is limited to the shotgun and thus not good at ranged combat.
In practice, these shortcomings are overstated. I found the shotgun to be effective even out to medium range pretty much from the start of the game. While there are some cases in which long-range combat was emphasized, most combat in Mass Effect occurs at medium-to-close range. And unlike the assault rifle, which requires you keep the barrel pointed at a foe while you pump it full of ammunition, many kills with the shotgun require only a single burst. This allows you to quickly get back behind cover, hit space, reassess the situation, find the next target, and then unpause to fire again. In a lot of games, I often find that it is sometimes easier to aim effectively when you have just one large shot at a time, rather than a constant barrange, and this was the case here as well. I found that I really loved the shotgun, as just as I did in Fallout 3.
Furthermore, I am not at all sure that medium armor is a limitation. Medium armor does, on average, have lower damage resistance and, depending on the armor, lower shield ratings than heavy armor. However, it almost always also has superior biotic defense ratings, which makes you better able to resist damage from your opponents' biotic powers. While its true that only a handful of opponents use biotics, it is handy to have those defenses. Furthermore, the key biotic ability for the Vanguard is Barrier, which creates a powerful energy shield around your character capable of soaking more damage than any heavy armor can provide. When maxed out along with shock trooper, you can use barrier almost at will, as the ability will recharge within a few seconds of the previous barrier disappearing.
Therefore, the Vanguard might sacrifice a tiny bit of durability and ranged weapon attacks for a great deal of flexibility. You have a lot of different options for how to deal with a foe, from effective medium-ranged fighting, to biotics, to in-your-face close combat. Therefore, a typical skirmish in the game would go something like this:
- Encounter foes and get behind cover.
- Start shotgunning down any nearby foes. Use Throw or Lift to disable anyone packing too much heat, or getting too close for comfort.
- Activate barrier, leave cover, and charge around the cover of any remaining combatants.
- Shotgun them in the face.
Ah, so much fun! And by endgame, you can start that sequence with a Barrier and expect to be able to re-activate it mid-fight. Fortunately, all of this never got grindy, because sometimes there wouldn't be cover, or some other factor else would keep this approach from working. The most problematic enemy were Krogan, who have an annoying tendency to activate immunity and then charge into melee range. Melee attacks are not resisted by shields, and Krogan, being so large, are resistant to abilities like throw unless you put a lot of points into maximizing its force. Vanguards don't have a lot of HP, so getting within melee range was really the key to taking me down.
Another advantage is that, as a Vanguard, you can readily take the most interesting NPC's in the game along with you. Since you have no tech abilities, you have to take one of the two "tech" companions: Garrus or Tali. Garrus frankly does all the tech he needs to, plus he wields an assault rifle and is good in a fight...and is a cool character in an "ends justifies means" sort of way. And then you have another party slot that is pretty much wide open. I usually took Ashley, for the durability and firepower, and because I enjoyed her spunk. Wrex also slotted in just fine in that role, without any problematic redundancy. He brought biotics along with him, and a great deal of attitude. On Noveria, I even took Liara so she could face off with Benezia, and didn't really miss a beat. Her support abilities meshed very well with my vanguard's offensive abilities; the team functioned differently when she was present, but not really any less effectively as long as she could stay alive (sometimes a challenge). In contrast to this flexibility, if you play as a soldier, you really need some biotic and tech help, and so you can't really take Ashley (unless, I guess, you punt on combat for one NPC and take Kaidan). If you go as an infiltrator or engineer or adept (or sentinel!), you probably won't want to take Garrus or Tali or Liara, because you'll want NPC's like Wrex and Ashley to hide behind.
The other "multiclass" type class in the game is the Infiltrator, which is what I played during my first play-through. That class is a mixture of engineer (which focuses on support abilities, though with some useful abilities to jam opponent weapons) and soldier, in that you get to play with sniper rifles. Sniper rifles are really fun in mass effect, but ultimately are far less practical than the traditional shotgun. I fond that I had to use my pistol more often than naught while playing as an Infiltrator, because its rare that one can be completely comfortable using a sniper rifle to pick up foes from afar. I'm sure it's possible to play that character all the way through the game, and there would be some situations in which you'd have a tremendous advantage. But a tough, in-your-face magic user like a Vanguard seemed to fit the typical combat situation far better than the at-a-distance character like the infiltrator.
Long story, short (too late)? Try out the Vanguard. It's fun, powerful, and you won't regret it.

Some Friends Explored an Abandoned Missile Silo. What They Found is Nightmarish.
The Titan I ICMB was an important player in the early Cold War. It was capable of delivering a nuclear payload anywhere in the world.


The Avenger-class ships are designed as mine hunter-killers capable of finding, classifying, and destroying moored and bottom mines. The last three MCM ships were purchased in 1990, bringing the total to 14 fully deployable, oceangoing Avenger-class ships. These ships use sonar and video systems, cable cutters and a mine-detonating device that can be released and detonated by remote control. They are also capable of conventional minesweeping measures.
As of 2012, eight Avengers were forward-based: four at Sasebo, Japan with standing crews, and four at Manama, Bahrain, with ten ships' companies on rotational deployments. In March 2012, the USN announced plans to deploy another four MCM's to Bahrain to counter potential Iranian threats to mine the Strait of Hormuz reflecting increasing tensions between the United States and Iran over the latter's nuclear program.

This bow is not a toy.
Information to all users
An improper handling of a bow risk of injury even death if an arrow strikes at a vulnerable place.
THIS BOW IS NOT A TOY
For younger archers, make sure that the practice of the activity takes place under the supervision of an adult.
Our bows are not made to be used in extreme weather conditions.
A few words to help you better understand :
- ANCHOR POINT : mark on the face towards which the archer must bring the string and the arrow before shooting
- ARM OF THE BOW : This is the arm that holds the handle of the bow
- ARMING : Action which consists of bringing the rope and the arrow to the face to take aim
- BAND : distance between the handle and the string when the bow is at rest
- BEND THE BOW : Action which consists in putting the bow and the string in tension
- DOLLS : parts of the arch into which the ends of the string fit
- EXTENSION : distance between the handle of the bow and the string when the bow is drawn
- HAND OF ROPE : this is the hand that twists on the rope
- HAND OF BOW : this is the hand that holds the handle of the bow
- NO GLOW : also know as roller finger, part that combines both notching point and shooting protection, to thread on the rope and to place at the sandstone of your settings
- RELEASE : Action of releasing the bowstring to propel the arrow
A few important rules for a successful shooting session!
Regarding the shooting area :
- Require all shooters to stand on the same line (shooting line).
- Choose an open area with ample space behind the targets. Install a net if necessary. Fix the targets on the ground if necessary.
- Do not run around the shooting area during the shooting session.
- Never run with arrows in the quiver.
- Comply with the following firing plan:
Before shooting :
- Always check the condition of your bow, string and arrows.
- Never use a bow or arrows that show signs of wear such as cracks or breaks.
- Make sure the rope is in place in the grooves of the dolls.
- Always wear an arm guard.
- Place the arrow on the correct side : to the left for a right-hander, to the right for a left-hander.
- Check the correct positioning of the cog feather and hen feathers.
- Check that the length of the arrow is correct for your height.
- Always check your target’s shooting butt for wear before and after each use.
- All shooting butts wear out over time and eventually stop working.
- Replace your target’s shooting butt if the surface is worn or damaged.
- Make sure you ALWAYS know the local laws and regulation.
To notch your arrow :
Place your arrow either:
- perpendicular to your rope,
- between the nock sets
- in the intended location of the no-glov.
During shooting :
- Make sure you always be sure of your target and beyond it.
- Always wear safety glasses with any type of archery.
- Never shoot without an arrow, it could damage your bow and cause injury.
- Never shoot vertically and in the direction of people, animals, roads or homes.
- Never use arrows that are underweight. This will have the same effect as empty firing and may cause serious injury.
- Never bend your bow beyond its maximum draw, as this could damage the limbs and string.
- Always inspect your arrows and notches regularly. Damaged arrows and notches can cause serious injury. Any damaged, split or cracked arrow must be immediately discarded.
- ALWAYS inspect your bow after each use.
- Inspect your rope for any signs of wear or deterioration.
After shooting :
- Check the condition of your bow after each shooting session
- Check the condition of your accessories also after each shooting session
- Do not leave your bow exposed to strong heat
- Remember to place your bow in the rest position
- Check the state of wear of your target’s shooting butt

After WWII there was a great effort by both the American and Soviet governments to assimilate the wealth of German technological knowledge; in particular their knowledge of liquid propelled rockets. Under the guidance of Dr. Wernher von Braun a group of German rocket scientists defected to American forces, and were swept away to Fort Bliss in White Sands, New Mexico. At Fort Bliss this team began work on "Project Paperclip"; laying the ground work for the successful start of the American Space Program. These engineers were later moved to Redstone Arsenal just outside the sleepy southern town of Huntsville, Alabama. At Redstone Arsenal they created the Redstone Rocket (a ballistic missile), which relied heavily on the earlier work from the V-2 test-bed at White Sands. This rocket was later modified . . . the warhead removed . . . the payload exchanged . . . with a space capsule. This Mercury-Redstone rocket took the first American, Alan Shepard, into space. Although this project was conceived to produce ballistic missiles for the DOD, these original scientist made the push to create NASA, and further the pursuit of space exploration. In my mind . . . "Project Paperclip", and the diligent work of that team started it all.
The following is an except from an article posted on the NASA site that relates some of the interesting facts leading up to the founding of "Project Paperclip." If you are interested in viewing it in the context of the entire article, please feel free to follow this link. http://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/History/SP-4201/ch1-3.htm
"The story of German achievements in military rocketry during the late thirties and early forties at Peenemuende, the vast military research installation on the Baltic Sea, is well known. Knowing Goddard's work only through his published findings, the German experimenters contrived and elaborated on nearly all of the American's patented technical innovations, including gyroscopic controls, parachutes for rocket recovery, and movable deflector vanes in the exhaust. The rocket specialists at Peenemuende were trying to create the first large, long-range military rocket. By 1943, after numerous frustrations, they had their "big rocket," 46 feet long by 11½ feet in diameter, weighing 34,000 pounds when fueled, and producing 69,100 pounds of thrust from a single engine consuming liquid oxygen and a mixture of alcohol and water. Called "Assembly-4" (A-4) by the Peenemuende group, the rocket had a range of nearly 200 miles and a maximum velocity of about 3,500 miles per hour, and was controlled by its gyroscope and exhaust deflector vanes, sometimes supplemented by radio control. When Major General Walter Dornberger, commander of the army works at Peenemuende, pronounced the A-4 operational in 1944, Joseph Goebbels' propaganda machine christened it Vergeltungswaffe zwei (Vengeance Weapon No. 2), or "V-2." But for the space-travel devotees at Peenemuende the rocket remained the A-4, a step in the climb toward space.
Although the total military effect of the 3,745 V-2s fired at targets on the Continent and in England was slight, this supersonic ballistic missile threw a long shadow over the future of human society. As the Western Allies and the Soviets swept into Germany, they both sought to confiscate the elements of the German rocket program in the form of records, hardware, and people. Peenemuende was within the Russian zone of occupation, but before the arrival of the Soviet forces von Braun and most of the other engineers and technicians fled westward with a portion of their technical data. The Americans also captured the underground V-2 factory in the Harz Mountains; 100 partially assembled V-2s were quickly dismantled and sent to the United States. Ultimately von Braun and about 125 other German rocket specialists reached this country under "Project Paperclip," carried out by the United States Army."
So in the spirit of exploration and discovery, We the team, have dubbed ourselves "Project Paperclip."
In the words of Paul Harvey, "That's the rest of the story . . . . Good Day!"

|The Aircraft :|
|Thunderbolt||Alexander Kartveli was a engineer with Seversky Aircraft who designed the P-35, which first flew in 1937. With Republic Aviation Kartveli supervised the development of the P-43 Lancer. Neither of these aircraft were produced in large numbers, and neither was quite successful. However, the Republic Aviation P-47 Thunderbolt, also nicknamed the Jug, was quite a different story. The Jug was the jewel in Kartvelis design crown, and went on to become one of the most produced fighter aircraft of all time with 15,683 being manufactured. The P-47 was the largest and heaviest single seat fighter of WW II. The P-47 immediately demonstrated its excellent combat qualities, including speed, rate of climb, maneuverability, heavy fire power, and the ability to take a lot of punishment. With a wingspan of more than 40 feet and a weight of 19,400 pounds, this large aircraft was designed around the powerful 2000 HP Pratt and Whitney R-2800 Double Wasp radial engine. The first P-47 prototype flew in May of 1941, and the primary variant the P-47D went into service in 1943 with units of the U.S. Armys Eighth Air Force. The Jug had a maximum speed in excess of 400 MPH, a service ceiling in excess of 42,000 feet, and was heavily armed with either six or eight heavy caliber machine guns. With its ability to carry up to a 2,500 pound bomb load, the Jug saw lots of use in ground attack roles. Until the introduction of the N model, the P-47 lacked the long range required for fighter escort missions which were most often relegated to P-51 Mustangs or P-38 Lightnings. In his outstanding painting entitled Bridge Busting Jugs, noted aviation artist Stan Stokes depicts Eighth Air Force Jugs in a ground attack mission in the Alps in June of 1944. The top P-47 ace was Francis Gabreski who had flown with the 56th Fighter Group, the first unit to be equipped with the P-47. In August of 1943 Gabreski attained his first aerial combat victory (over an Fw-190) and by years end he had reached ace status with 8 confirmed victories. As Commander of the 61st Squadron, Gabreski continued to chalk up victory after victory, and on seven different occasions he achieved two victories during the same mission. However, in July of 1944 Gabreski damaged the prop on his Jug during a low level attack on an airfield near Coblenz. Forced to make a crash landing, he was captured and remained a prisoner of war until Wars end in 1945. Following the War Gabreski returned to military service with the Air Forces 4th Fighter-Interceptor Wing in Korea. Flying the F-86 Sabre Jet, Gabreski attained 6.5 more aerial victories in 1951 and 1952 becoming an ace in two different wars|

The High Power has been issued to the armed services of more than fifty nations, including Canada, where it still serves as a battle pistol.A generation ago, the High Power was issued to elite units in the United States, including the New Jersey State Police Fugitive Squad and the FBI Hostage Rescue Team.It is among the most recognizable handguns worldwide; if you scan the news, you may see a High Power in the hands of Indian police or waved by a woman during a street battle in Iraq.
The early versions feature a slide lock safety that is smaller than many competing types, but with practice the safety isn’t as difficult to manipulate as some would have us believe.
It has been in continuous production since 1934 and though it has waned in popularity today, it is still carried by several police forces across the globe, and even here in America the pistol still has its devotees, and is valued for its history, performance and collector interest.
With the German Luger, the High Power is one of the original guns that fire the readily obtainable 9mm cartridge.
It is a shame that the heavy trigger action limits accuracy potential in many variants, but then the piece was made for short range combat.
Practiced marksmen will make good hits in spite of the trigger action as long as the trigger is consistent.


Guns of the Civil War
"It is well war is so terrible, we should not get too fond of it."
-General Robert E. Lee
"...The perfect companion piece to the Ken Burns’ Civil War Series."
"Very highly recommended for personal, school, and community library Civil War reference collections and studies supplementation."
Here, in this most tragic time, there came the evolution of pistols and rifles and artillery that would forever change the way in which man fought wars. Within the names that would forever establish themselves in the annals of weaponry - Colt, Winchester, Smith & Wesson - lies a different story of The Civil War.
Vol. 1 A Greater Moral Force
The stories of the weapons used in the Civil War are as colorful as the men who used them. From the fields and farms, from the factories and ships, came the men who would forge the bloodiest of conflicts, the war that would tear a nation apart. It is here that came the evolution of pistols and rifles and artillery that would forever change the way in which man fought wars.
Vol. 2 Measure for Measure
As the great battles took shape and the legendary figures of Lee, Custer, Stonewall Jackson, John Mosby, and so many others wrote their pages of history, both the Union and Confederate soldiers badly needed more weapons. The story of the war was in many ways the story of the search for arms and how the boys who had to use these weapons quickly became men or were heard from no more.
Vol. 3 Against the Thunderstorm
The clamor of the cavalry charge. The cry of armies rushing toward each other. The sounds of war. Yet there is another sound, another destructive force, that joins the battle cry. For death and destruction come quickly in the wake of the often deafening explosions of artillery.

The f irst true flintlocks were created in France in the early 17 th century. Flintlocks were commonly used over the next two centuries until the invention of the percussion lock. He is typically attributed as the inventor of the flintlock mechanism. The gun owned by Georg von Reichwein, a German officer during the mid th century, is the oldest existing revolver in the world.
Stamp marks on the gun provide definitive evidence that the revolver was created by Hans Stopler, a German weapons blacksmith, in The gun was made for someone of high status and is decorated with brass, bone, and Mother of Pearl. Unlike modern revolvers, this gun had to be manually rotated. Georg von Reichwein was the last owner of the gun, and bought it when he was appointed to major and commander of the forces at Bergenhus fortress of Norway in The revolver currently resides in the storage rooms of the Maihaugen Folk Museum in Lillehammer, Norway. It was briefly put on display in for the th anniversary of the Norwegian Constitution.

As gun technology progressed, different firing mechanisms were created. Although matchlock guns are older than wheellocks , very few examples survive. However, many wheellocks, which were first created in the early s still exist. Wheellock guns were the first self-igniting firearms, which meant that they could be fired efficiently with one hand.

Is this the Mark V tank? Or the Mark V*?
Alwyn Hardy of Warminster Museum took particular interest in the photo from STEAM Museum of the tank being loaded on to a railway truck in the Making Munitions section of the Wiltshire Does its Bit exhibition. In particular, he queried the date of the tank, as given in the caption, which runs:
A 1918 tank is loaded onto a Swindon-built RECTANK wagon. The wagon was built to carry tanks and other armoured fighting vehicles weighing up to 40 tons. As shown here, tanks were driven onto the wagons, not craned on.
Mr Hardy said: “I am reasonably certain that this is a Mark V tank, though it is just possibly a Mark V* (from that angle it is almost impossible to tell). Assuming that it is a Mk V, then the interpretation of the phrase “a 1918 tank” in the caption becomes an issue.
“The Mk V was really just an improved version of the Mk IV, while the V* was a newer machine altogether; in particular it was considerably longer and different in a number of ways to the Mk V. It was scheduled to go into production after the first order for 400 Mk V’s was completed.
“The decision to start production of the Mk V was finally taken in the late summer of 1917. The original intention had been that they would be ready for use by the autumn of 1917 and the first few new Ricardo engines which were to go into the Mk Vs in place of the Daimler engine used previously in tanks reached the Central Workshops at Erin in France in Aug 1917. But the first model did not come off the production line until Dec 1917 and the first deliveries were made to Central Workshops on Jan 14th 1918, after which there was another long delay, probably aggravated by the chaos and panic of the March Retreat, and it was May 1918 before any regular deliveries started to arrive in France, followed quite quickly by the first V*s.
“Personally I would still call the Mk V a 1917 tank but I accept that you could argue that as none reached France until January 1918, the present caption is correct.
“The 8th Battalion was the first battalion to be re-equipped with Mk Vs. The battn War Diary records that they moved into the Training area at Humieres on April 2nd 1918, began training on the Mk V tanks and the Hotchkiss gun on the 3rd to the 13th and took nine Mk V’s on strength on 14th, with 5 more on the 18th, 8 on the 22nd, two on the23rd, 3 on the 24th and a final 3 more on the 28th. The Battn was in action with its new tanks almost directly afterwards. They got their first three V*s on Sept 5th of that year. I appreciate that this last paragraph has nothing to do with the original discussion but I couldn’t resist putting it in as the 8th was my father’s battn and I have a copy of the War Diary kindly given to me by the tank museum.”

*After we published this account from Alywn on the Wiltshire at War website, we were contacted through the website by Frans from the Netherlands, who said this:
It is lengthened, as can be seen by the extra machine gun mount behind the sponson, and the door beneath it, both of which a Mark V doesn’t have.
So it is a Mark V*.
Intrigued by Frans’ certainty about the tank – and seeing that he was clearly something of an expert, we contacted him to ask him if he had more information, and also how he found out about the Wiltshire at War website. This was his response:
I have been interested in armoured warfare from a young age, but my main interest is with WW2 stuff, I do know a few things about WW1 armour though.
I was Googling for some good images of British WW1 tanks, which is how I ended up at your website.
The mark V* tanks were lengthened versions of the Mark V, in order to provide room for a squad of soldiers, to function as armoured personnel carriers so to say, a new concept at the time.
“This wasn’t a success though, because the soldiers became incapacitated by the heat and smoke inside the tank, the first produced by its engine, and the latter by both its engine and from firing its weaponry in combat.
As far as I know some 700 mark V* tanks were built, 500 “male” and 200 “female” variants, the one in your image is a “female” (armed with machine guns only).
The tank’s serial number, 9771, is visible in the image, so if you want to know more about this tank you might try contacting the Tank Museum in Bovington (http://www.tankmuseum.org/contact-details ), they might be able to provide you with its history.
Frans proved to be a keen correspondent, and subsequently added the following comments:
Regarding the mark V* tank; you should see it more as a ‘battle taxi’ than as a real armoured personnel carrier (APC).
The difference being that an APC is the dedicated transport for a group of soldiers both on and off the battle field, and a battle taxi only transports them on the battlefield itself.
I don’t know how many soldiers the mark V* was supposed to transport exactly btw, might have been a full squad, might also have been more or less.
That’s something the people at the Bovington Tank Museum should be able to tell you.
They have a whole bunch of WW1 tanks btw, but no mark V*, they do have a mark V** though, which was the successor of the mark V*
The only surviving mark V* resides at the National Army and Cavalry Museum in Fort Benning (US), but that’s a “male” version, of the “female” version no survivors remain.
Alwyn was very interested to read Frans’ details about the tank. He commented:
The mark V* was not just a lengthened version of the Mk V, it was a new design altogether. Frans is very close in his estimate of the numbers built. In fact, of the original order for 700 (500 males and 200 females) 579 were delivered by Armistice Day and another 66 subsequently; I think the rest of the order was cancelled.
It is slightly surprising (to me at any rate ) that Metropolitan Carriage Works should have completed their original order for 400 Mk Vs before they started on the V*s.
The final exchange between Alwyn and Frans ran as follows:
Thank you for your note about the Mark V* tank. I have checked the position of the door on the working drawings and compared it with the Mk V. I congratulate you on your perspicacity and am now in full agreement with you.
Glad to be of help, and thanks for the compliment.
My best wishes for you and the museum, history is important.
As a final note on this correspondence, Alwyn commented to the Wiltshire at War team:
So we have now reached the point when everyone is now satisfied that your original caption calling it a 1918 tank was perfectly correct and I should not have presumed to think anything otherwise. Well done!
