Radiation Injury Following an A-Bomb Explosion
Washington DC: Armed Forces Institute of Pathology June 1951. Reprinted from the Annals of Internal Medicine Vol. 36 No. 6 June 1952. Wraps. Good. Format is approximately 6.75 inches by 10 inches. Pages 1444-1458 1 pages. Stamp and Ink notations on first page. This was presented at the Thirty-second Annual Session of the American College of Physicians St. Louis Mo. April 10 1951. Topics covered include Thermal Radiation Effects and Nuclear Radiation Effects. This document includes footnotes 11 black and white photographs a summary and a bibliography. On the day of the bombing the outstanding symptoms of the Japanese exposed to radiation were nausea and vomiting followed soon by fever leukopenia and diarrhea. Epilation purpura and oropharyngeal lesions appears about two weeks after exposure. Epilation was the surest external sign of exposure to ionizing radiation. This work reported that blast injuries and burns accounted for approximately 85 per cent of the casualties from an atomic bomb explosion high in the air. Studies in Japan indicated that 90 per cent of all persons who needed medical care in the first week had burns and that 60 to 85 per cent of all patients were burned. The ionizing radiation from an explosion of the Hiroshima or Nagasaki type is delivered in about 90 seconds and 50 per cent of the total is delivered in the first second. Clinically significant amounts of radioactivity are not left in the target area following detonations of this type. Because ionizing radiation injuries are unique effects of the atomic bomb these phenomena sometimes provoke emphasis out of proportion to the actual danger and thus create new psychologic hazards.

This Technical Bulletin describes the colors and patterns to be used for the camouflage of ARMCOM equipment which require camouflage pattern painting and provides a uniform system of marking such equipment. Additional camouflage patterns will be added as new equipment is developed. Nuclear weapons and ammunition Class V are not included in this bulletin. Military camouflage is the use of camouflage by a armed force to protect personnel and equipment from observation by enemy forces. In practice this means applying colour and materials to military equipment of all kinds including vehicles ships aircraft gun positions and battledress either to conceal it from observation crypsis or to make it appear as something else mimicry. The French slang word camouflage came into common English usage during World War I when the concept of visual deception developed into an essential part of modern military tactics. In that war long-range artillery and observation from the air combined to expand the field of fire and camouflage was widely used to decrease the danger of being targeted or to enable surprise. As such military camouflage is a form of military deception. Camouflage for equipment and positions was extensively developed for military use by the French in 1915 soon followed by other World War I armies. In both world wars artists were recruited as camouflage officers. United States, Department of the Army, Headquarters paperback

Also chapter on detecting and removing boobytraps clearing and disarming methods. A booby trap is a device or setup that is intended to kill harm or surprise a person or animal unknowingly triggered by the presence or actions of the victim. As the word trap implies they sometimes have some form of bait designed to lure the victim towards it. At other times the trap is set to act upon trespassers that violate personal or restricted areas. The device can be triggered when the victim performs some type of everyday action e.g. opening a door picking something up or switching something on. They can also be triggered by vehicles driving along a road as in the case of victim-operated improvised explosive devices IEDs. Booby traps should not be confused with mantraps which are designed to catch a person. Lethal booby traps are often used in warfare particularly guerrilla warfare and traps designed to cause injury or pain are also sometimes used by criminals wanting to protect drugs or other illicit property and by some owners of legal property who wish to protect it from theft.
