United States, Congress, House of Representatives, Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, Subcommittee on Energy Research
Nuclear Power in Space; Hearing before the Subcommittee on Energy Research and Development of the Committee on Science Space and Technology House of Representatives One Hundred First Congress First Session September 30 1989 No. 60
Washington DC: U. S. Government Printing Office 1989. Presumed First Edition First printing. Wraps. Good. iii 1 183 5 pages. Illustrations. Appendix. Ink notation and pencil erasure residue on front page. Mail label mark on back page. The hearing addressed: Usefulness of space power research to ground-based nuclear reactor systems --Personnel development and educational needs of the universities as they relate to the development of space nuclear power systems --Nuclear power plants for space vehicles developed --and Role of the universities in supporting the space nuclear power technology development. Witnesses from the Air Force National Aeronautics and Space Administration the Department of Energy the General Accounting Office Westinghouse Hanford Battelle Pacific Northwest Laboratory and the Los Alamos National Laboratory testified. Nuclear power in space is the use of nuclear power in outer space typically either small fission systems or radioactive decay for electricity or heat. One common type is a radioisotope thermoelectric generator which has been used on many space probes and on manned lunar missions and another is small fission reactors for Earth observation satellites such as the TOPAZ nuclear reactor. A radioisotope heater unit provides heat from radioactive decay of a material and can potentially produce heat for decades. R The United States tested a nuclear reactor in space for 43 days in 1965. While not yet tested in space the test of the Demonstration Using Flattop Fission DUFF on September 13 2012 was the first test of a nuclear reactor power system for space since then. Examples of nuclear power for space propulsion systems include nuclear electric rocket radioisotope rocket and radioisotope electric propulsion. One of the more explored is the nuclear thermal rocket which was tested in the NERVA program. U. S. Government Printing Office paperback

United States, Department of Defense, Office of the Secretary of Defense
Nuclear Posture Review
Washington DC 2018. Presumed First Edition First printing thus. Wraps. Very good. 4 xvii 1 75 pages. Illustrations most in color. On January 27 2017 President Donald Trump directed Secretary of Defense James Mattis to initiate a new Nuclear Posture Review NPR. The President made clear that his first priority is to protect the United States allies and partners. He also emphasized the requirement that the United States have modern flexible and resilient nuclear capabilities that are safe and secure until such a time as nuclear weapons can prudently be eliminated from the world. The United States remains committed to its efforts in support of the ultimate global elimination of nuclear biological and chemical weapons. Nevertheless global threat conditions have worsened markedly since the 2010 NPR including increasing nuclear threats from potential adversaries. The United States faces a more advanced nuclear-threat environment than ever before with dynamism in potential adversaries' development and deployment programs for nuclear weapons and delivery systems. The fundamental reasons why U.S. nuclear capabilities and deterrence strategies are necessary for U.S. allied and partner security are readily apparent. U.S. nuclear capabilities make essential contributions to the deterrence of nuclear and non-nuclear aggression. The deterrence effects they provide are unique and essential to preventing adversary nuclear attacks which is the highest priority of the United States. U.S. nuclear capabilities cannot prevent all conflict and should not be expected to do so. But they contribute uniquely to the deterrence of both nuclear and non-nuclear aggression. They are essential for these purposes and will be so for the foreseeable future. Non-nuclear forces also play essential deterrence roles but do not provide comparable deterrence effects--as is reflected by past periodic and catastrophic failures of conventional deterrence to prevent Great Power war before the advent of nuclear deterrence. In addition conventional forces alone are inadequate to assure many allies who rightly place enormous value on U.S. extended nuclear deterrence for their security which correspondingly is also key to non-proliferation. From Wikipedia: With Donald Trump's election came a new nuclear posture review headed by Secretary of Defense James Mattis. The 2018 NPR maintains the need for a nuclear triad in the US defense strategy. There are a variety of options that have been proposed by the 2018 NPR. One of the statements made include a need to close a gap in the nuclear arsenal with low-yield nuclear weapons. This suggests that the US would consider using nuclear weapons if necessary on a smaller-scale regional conflict rather than all-out nuclear war. Other things to note from the 2018 NPR include a need to develop sea-launched cruise missiles SLCMs to bolster the SSBN portion of the triad. The review also states the US's intention to not ratify the CTBT and rejects the idea of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. Despite these recommendations and stances the 2018 NPR is argued to be similar rather than different from previous NPRs. The NPR maintains that nuclear weapons are still meant to serve as a deterrent which is the goal of these proposed actions to modernize the US nuclear arsenal. paperback

Various paginations approximately 200 pages. Fold-out. Figures. Tables. Acronyms. References. Definitions. Three-hole punched. Cover has some wear and soiling. The purpose of this Manual is to provide the On-Scene Commander and his or her planning staff with a single comprehensive document that summarizes procedural guidance technical information and DoD responsibilities for responding to an accident involving nuclear weapons. The NARP also describes the substantial resources in other Federal Agencies that can be made available to assist in the response effort. This Manual should be widely disseminated and made available to all commanders and staff who may be called upon to respond to a nuclear weapon accident. It should serve as a guide for more detailed planning for nuclear weapon accident response and can be used to improve training and exercise programs. Fascinating snapshot in time as the world was transitioning from the Cold War to a world of proliferation/nuclear terrorism risk. This manual consolidates procedural guidance and technical information to assist DoD forces in preparing for nuclear weapon accident response and in responding to a DoD nuclear weapon accident. The document is designed to standardize where appropriate and integrate DoD methods with Department of State DoS procedures the Federal Radiological Emergency Response Plan FRERP and DoE Accident Response Group ARG responsibilities/ procedures. Portions of the document may be useful to DoD elements responding to non-DoD radiological accidents or incidents under current interagency support agreements. This manual is designed to furnish a general approach to nuclear weapon accident response.

UNITED STATES, General Land Office - C ROESER, Principal Draughtsman, GLO G L O
Ohio
Washington D.C.: General Land Office printed in New York by Julius Bien lithographer 1879. Color-lithographed map. A very detailed colour-coded map of Ohio showing towns rivers roads railroads among other landmarks.<br/> <br/> The General Land Office was founded in 1812 as an independent government agency responsible for the surveying and disposition of land in the public domain. Prior to the Civil War much of the attention of the GLO was fixed on the settlement of such land east of the Mississippi which had resulted from military bounties and cessations by the original thirteen states. The end of the Civil War the Homestead Act the completion of the Trans-Continental Railroad and the military campaigns against Native Americans in the West with resulting treaties that "transferred" land ownership to the United States together engendered an incredible increase in westward settlement and expansion. Newly-admitted states and newly-created territories west of the Mississippi were primed for settlement. Between 1866 and 1876 the GLO surveyed over 200000000 acres of land in the public domain for settlement in New Mexico Idaho Dakota Nebraska Montana Colorado Wyoming and elsewhere. As the official surveyors of these remote areas and with access to military information the maps of the General Land Office were far and away the most accurate and detailed of the western states and territories published to that time. Indeed these large-scale official maps became the basis for future maps of those regions by commercial cartographers. In 1876 the GLO headed by S.S. Burdett published an atlas containing 18 maps on 19 sheets California being on two sheets showing the regions of the United States with newly surveyed and plotted public lands. Although the GLO had issued individual maps of the United States to accompany their annual report in 1866 and 1868 the 1876 Geographical and Political Atlas of the States and Territories sometimes referred to as The Centennial Atlas was the first atlas to be published by the department. The incredible growth of settlement in the west coupled with new exploration and surveying in the short time following the 1876 atlas engendered a second atlas to be published by the General Land Office between 1878 and 1879 i.e. where the present example is from. Like the Centennial Atlas the maps were composed by the chief draughtsman in the GLO Charles Roeser Jr. The maps were done on a large scale and are consequently very detailed. Chromolithographed by Julius Bien each map is colour coded to clearly depict land plotted for settlement the locations of the general land offices Indian territories county divisions towns rivers roads railroads etc. Furthermore like The Centennial Atlas the Atlas of the States and Territories over which Land Surveys have been Extended was produced for official purposes and distributed to members of Congress government agencies each land office the post office the railroads and other large entities and was not available for public distribution. The limited distribution of this atlas coupled with its large size accounts for its great rarity today; very few copies are known to be in private hands and no copies were in the famed collections of Rumsey Streeter or Graff.<br/> <br/> Phillips Atlases 1405. General Land Office [printed in New York by Julius Bien, lithographer] unknown

The United States Army Ordnance Corps formerly the United States Army Ordnance Department is a Sustainment branch of the United States Army headquartered at Fort Lee Virginia. The broad mission of the Ordnance Corps is to supply Army combat units with weapons and ammunition including at times their procurement and maintenance. Along with the Quartermaster Corps and Transportation Corps it forms a critical component of the U.S. Army logistics system. The U.S. Army Ordnance Corps mission is to support the development production acquisition and sustainment of weapon systems ammunition missiles electronics and ground mobility materiel during peace and war to provide combat power to the U.S. Army. The officer in charge of the branch for doctrine training and professional development purposes is the Chief of Ordnance. Even though World War I had been raging in Europe for nearly three years the Ordnance Department had to play catch-up when the United States entered the war. With only 97 officers and 1241 enlisted soldiers the department had a myriad of problems to overcome. However by the end of the war it had solved all these problems matured as an organization and adapted to modern mechanized warfare. It established an embryonic process for echelon based maintenance for field units a tradition of Ordnance education at one of the officer or enlisted Ordnance schools a new proving ground at Aberdeen Maryland and a plan to coordinate production and mobilize industry. By the end of the war the Ordnance Department numbered 5954 officers and 62047 enlisted soldiers with 22700 of those officers and soldiers serving in the American Expeditionary Force in France. During the interwar period the lessons from WWI were studied and consolidated. The Ordnance Field Manual of 1933 was a foundational doctrinal statement prior to the onset of the Second World War. The Ordnance mission in the field during WWII operated on a scale never experienced previously by the Ordnance Department. During World War II the Ordnance Branch gained its third core competency Bomb Disposal renamed Explosive Ordnance Disposal after WWII added to its previous missions of ammunition handling and maintenance. By war's end there were more than 2200 Ordnance units of approximately 40 types ranging in size from squads to regiments. United States, War Department, Chief of Ordnance hardcover

Ordnance Maintenance U.S. Rifles Cal. .30; M1 M1C Sniper's and M1D Sniper's TM 9-1275 War Department Technical Manual
Washington DC: United States War Department c1947. Appears to be a reprint without information as to source. Wraps. Good. iii 1 104 4 pages. Illustrations. This manual supersedes TM 9-1275 6 November 1942 including C 1 15 May 1943; TB 23-5-6 5 June 1944; TB ORD 207 28 September 1944; OFSTB 9-1275-5 28 June 1943; and so much of TB ORD 272 26 March 1945 as pertains to materiel covered in this manual. This manual represents the state of knowledge and the standards of practice after consideration of the experience gained during the Second World War. Information on Sniper rifles is extremely scarce. Contents include: Introduction; INspection Prior to Disassembly; Tools Gages and Fixtures; General Maintenance; Barrel and Receiver Group; Trigger Housing Group; Stock and Hand Guards; Equipment; Function Firing and Final Inspection; Malfunctions and Corrections; Appendix References; and Index. This manual is published for the information and guidance of ordnance maintenance personnel. It contains detailed instructions for inspection disassembly maintenance and repair of the U.S. rifle cal. .30 M1; U.S. rifle cal. .30 M1C sniper's; and the U.S. rifle cal. .30 M1D sniper's. This manual does not contain general assembly or disassembly or information which is intended primarily for the using arms since such information is available to ordnance maintenance personnel in FM 23-5. Where "repair tolerances" as opposed to tolerances for new manufacture have been set up such repair tolerances will continue in use. If additional tolerances or variations are desired submit a specific request to the Chief of Ordnance. Only rifles having the new spline-type gas cylinder are to be rebuilt. The receivers on rifles having the old type gas cylinders are of early manufacture and cause "eleven o'clock" feed stoppages. They are identified by the top of the front feed rib being cut away instead of coming up to a square corner. Since the M1 M1C and M1D rifles are basically the same mechanically as well as in operation and functioning the disassembly assembly inspection maintenance and repair are covered generally. Characteristics: The U.S. rifles cal. .30 M1 M1C and M1D are gas-operated clip-loaded air cooled semiautomatic shoulder weapons. These rifles may be equipped with gun sling M1907 leather or gun sling M1 webbing. When desired grenade launcher M7 or M7A1 or bayonet M1 may be used with the rifles. Difference Between Models: The U.S. rifles cal. .30 M1 M1C and M1D are basically the same. However rifles of early and present manufacturer of the same model may differ somewhat due to changes in design of some of the component parts. The U.S. rifle M1C sniper's is the standard U.S. rifle M1 with telescope M81 or M82 mounted on the receiver and a cheek pad laced to the stock. The flash hider M2 is furnished as an accessory with the M1C and M1D models. The U.S. rifle M1D differs from the U.S. rifle M1C sniper's only in the design of the telescope mount and bracket. On the M1C model the telescope is held in a removable mount having a dovetailed slide mating with that of a bracket permanently attached to the receiver and locked in place by means of two locking screws. On the M1D model the telescope is held in a removable mount which in turn is attached to a fixed base on the barrel of the rifle by means of one screw and dowel pin.

Orientation for Artillery; War Department Technical Manual TM 44-225
Washington DC: U. S. Government Printing Office 1944. Presumed First Edition First printing thus. Wraps. Good. v 1 248 2 pages. Illustrations. Fold-outs. Charts and Tables. Index. With Change No. 1 7 1 pages laid in. Change No. 1 includes Figure 106 Standard time zones in the United States. Cover has some wear and soiling. This manual supersedes TM 4-225 Orientation 15 July 1941. 1. Definition Orientation is defined as any process by which direction is ascertained. When the word orientation is used in connection with artillery however it includes the location of points in both a horizontal and vertical direction and the establishment of lines of known length and azimuth. 2. Methods The methods of solution of an orientation problem are dependent upon the time available for the solution and the equipment at hand. The methods presented in this manual include both quick approximate methods and more lengthy precise methods. 3. Precision Precision is the ideal which is sought for in the solution of any orientation problem. However the time permitted for the solution may not be sufficient to allow the completion of the problem by a precise method. A hasty approximation of direction is far preferable to an uncompleted survey made with a high degree of precision. The greatest precision consistent with the time available must be the goal of all reconnaissance officers. U. S. Government Printing Office paperback
