With sophisticated laboratories located at Aberdeen Proving Ground Maryland USAMRICD manages a diversified portfolio of medical chemical warfare agent research projects for the Department of Defense and other Federal Agencies. Our strategic plan relies on the continued outstanding performance of our scientists and support personnel and their abilities to exceed expectations on customer directed research projects. Chemical warfare and chemical terrorism both employ certain classes of chemical compounds as weapons of mass destruction to achieve military or political ends. Military medical officers and enlisted medical personnel need to become familiar with the chemistry and toxicology of these compounds as a necessary means to the end of recognizing and managing casualties produced by these agents. The growing recognition of the very real battlefield and terrorist threats of use of chemical-warfare agents has fueled a resurgence of interest in this subject among both military and civilian health-care providers. Active and reserve military health-care professionals should expect to be called upon to respond to this threat. Civilian have the reasonable expectation that military medical professional should be familiar with chemical-warfare agents that medical countermeasures useful against them.

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.

‎Washington DC: Department of the Army December 1967. First Edition thus revision of previous manuals. Wraps. Good. Format is approximately 8 inches by 10 inches. 76 4 pages. Illustrations. This manual supersedes TM 3-210 22 May 1962 including C 1 2 April 1964 and C 2 17 January 1966; and TC 3-15 23 June 1965. Includes Appendix A. References and Appendix B. Example Problems. Three-hole punched. Covers somewhat discolored text somewhat darkened. Ink note on the cover. Topics covered include Introduction to Fallout Prediction Detailed Fallout Prediction Simplified Fallout Prediction; Special Fallout Prediction Cases; Fallout Wind Vector Plot; Detailed Fallout Prediction Techniques; Effective Downwind Message; Prediction of Fallout From Atomic Demolition Munitions ADM; Friendly Nuclear Strike Warning Message General Format for transmitting data; Tables Figures and Nomograms Used in Fallout Prediction General Purpose. Nuclear fallout or fallout is the residual radioactive material propelled into the upper atmosphere following a nuclear blast so called because it "falls out" of the sky after the explosion and the shock wave have passed. It commonly refers to the radioactive dust and ash created when a nuclear weapon explodes. The amount and spread of fallout is a product of the size of the weapon and the altitude at which it is detonated. Fallout may get entrained with the products of a pyrocumulus cloud and fall as black rain rain darkened by soot and other particulates which fell within 30-40 minutes of the Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. This radioactive dust usually consisting of fission products mixed with bystanding atoms that are neutron-activated by exposure is a form of radioactive contamination. Now the International Nuclear and Radiological Event Scale INES is the primary form of categorizing the potential health and environmental effects of a nuclear or radiological event and communicating it to the public. The need for a fallout prediction system stems from the large-area radiological hazard that develops from fallout-producing nuclear bursts. Contamination has a large impact on military planning and operations. This hazard produces mass casualties if its presence is not detected and actions taken to minimize the radiological hazards. Commanders at all echelons must understand its effects and take action to minimize those effects. There are many occasions when a commander will require a fallout prediction. Three examples follow: When the commander plans to use a nuclear weapon that lacks 99-percent probability of being fallout safe or whenever a contact backup fuze is used a prestrike fallout prediction is prepared as part of the target analysis. Information may indicate that fallout is occurring or that fallout probably will occur from a nuclear burst friendly or enemy. In this case a fallout prediction is required to enable the commander to warn higher adjacent and subordinate units. When a fallout-producing burst occurs an evaluating procedure is begun that will answer the commander's questions about the hazard. However a time lag of several hours to a day or more may occur between the time of burst and the availability of measured data from radiological monitoring and/or survey. This delays evaluation of the actual hazard. During this time lag the fallout prediction area of expected hazard or at best the fallout prediction supplemented by measured radiation data may be the only available information for estimating the effects of the radiation hazard on tactical operations or plans. This information is significant in that it will enable the commander to avoid the contamination if possible In both simplified and detailed prediction a zone of primary hazard Zone I and one of secondary hazard Zone II are predicted. These zones are defined as areas where exposed unprotected personnel may receive militarily significant total doses of nuclear radiation within four hours after arrival of fallout. These doses may result in a reduction in combat effectiveness. Department of the Army paperback‎

‎Washington DC: Departments of the Army and the Navy 1968. Reprint which includes current pages from Change 1. Wraps. Good. Three-hole punched and stapled at left side. Various paginations approximately 160 pages. Figures. Tables. References. Glossary. Index. Figures D and E and present in an envelop inside the back cover. Figure D is a Circular Map Scale with a scale of 1:50000 and the numbers are in hundreds of meters. Figure E is a Circular Map Scale with a scale of 1:100000 and the numbers are in hundreds of meters. This manual supersedes FM 101-31-1 1 February 1963 including all changes. This manual provides guidance to commanders and staff officers in the operational and logistical aspects of nuclear weapon employment in combat operations. The doctrine presented in this manual is basically concerned with nuclear weapon employment within the field army and the Fleet Marine Force. When the manual discusses special ammunition logistics and vulnerability analyses the scope is extended to include the area of operations. Guidance is presented for the employment of nuclear weapons in the attack of targets on or near the earth's surface. The doctrine in this manual is based on the following basic concepts: a. The U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps are organized equipped and trained to fight in nuclear warfare nonnuclear warfare or under the threat of nuclear warfare. In the latter case units are prepared to take the actions indicated in this manual should nuclear warfare begin. b. Nuclear weapons may be employed within the area of operations when the theater commander announces that their use has been authorized. c. Once nuclear warfare has commenced the authority to employ nuclear weapons is decentralized. d. United States nuclear weapons may be employed in support of Allied forces using either United States or Allied delivery means. The nuclear warhead section to include artillery projectiles remains under the control of United States military personnel until time of launching or firing. e. A commander who plans to employ a nuclear weapon coordinates with any adjacent unit commander into whose zone or sector militarily significant weapon effects are expected to extend. Lacking concurrence the commander requests authority to fire from the next higher commander who controls both sectors. f. Nuclear firepower is a form of combat power. Nuclear weapons may on occasion be used alone to accomplish tasks that might otherwise require the maneuver of close combat units; however most tasks require a combination of fire and maneuver. Plans for the employment of nuclear firepower nonnuclear firepower and maneuver forces are integrated to provide decisive results. g. Nuclear weapons are employed to destroy or degrade enemy combat capabilities. Consistent with the requirements imposed by the tactical mission casualties among civilian personnel are held to a minimum. Destruction of manmade structures or natural terrain features tree blowdown or fire areas and creation of high-intensity residual contamination areas may create undesired obstacles to movement. Consistent with military objectives unnecessary destruction and contamination should be held to a minimum. h. Commanders employ the smallest and most readily available weapon with a sufficiently high probability of providing the coverage that insures the desired results. i. Commanders employ surface bursts when surface bursts accomplish the results desired more effectively than do Airbursts. j. Commanders conduct poststrike analysis as required.

On 31 July 1942 the Department of War recognized the need for a single manager of Army transportation and created a new branch the Transportation Corps. Since the Revolutionary War Army transportation had evolved through two branches the Quartermaster Corps and the Corps of Engineers. The demands of World War I made the Army first realize its need for a single manager for military transportation. So began an evolution over the next quarter century that culminated in the birth of the Transportation Corps during the opening months of World War II.<br /> <br /> The War Department directed the Quartermaster Corps to transfer the functions and responsibilities of truck and aviation units to the Transportation Corps by General Orders No. 77 on 24 July 1946. The same year the Transportation School consolidated all training except for drivers at Fort Eustis Virginia because of its intermodal rail and sea capability. In 1950 the Army turned over its deep-draft ships to the Military Sealift Command so the Army no longer had the largest navy in the United States military.<br /> <br /> That same year Brigadier General William B. Bunker convinced the Chief of Transportation Major General Frank S. Besson Jr. of the importance of helicopters in logistics. As a result in May the Army approved the organization of five helicopter companies with the first the 6th Transportation Company Helicopter activated in July 1952.<br /> <br /> In 1954 the Engineer Corps turned its landing craft over to the Transportation Corps making the Transportation Corps responsible for all modes of Army transportation. Coincidentally the Navy lifted the size limit on Army watercraft allowing the Army to build landing craft utility LCUs. This led the Transportation Corps to activate the 159th Boat Battalion.<br /> <br /> The Soviet threat against Europe provided the peacetime Army an enemy to plan against. In anticipation of the needs of the Army the Chief of Transportation directed and championed the development of military transportation. Contingency planners assumed the worst-case scenario in which the Soviet Union would use its bombers or worse yet its nuclear arsenal to destroy the fixed ports in France thus severing the vital lines of communication at their European end. This contingency required the Army to rely heavily on over-the-beach operations.<br /> <br /> The Transportation Corps is a Force Sustainment branch of the U.S. Army headquartered is now at Fort Lee Virginia and is responsible for the movement of personnel and matériel by truck rail air and sea. The Transportation Corps provides a full spectrum of transportation capabilities at the tactical operational and strategic levels of war. The Transportation School trains Soldiers to operate and maintain Army tactical trucks material handling equipment and watercraft. The school trains Transportation Operations Traffic Management Convoy Operations Cargo Transfer Cargo Documentation Movement Control Operation of Heavy Material Handling Equipment Sailing and Maintenance of Army Vessels and Unloading Aircraft Ships Railcars and Trucks.

Figures including several fold-outs. Tabular information. Index. No board weakness noted. Red binding. This is a mixed set due to different color of binding. In a 1918 journal article the functions of the Committee on Classification of Personnel in the Army were enumerated as: 1 classifying personnel according to their military qualifications 2 establishing the Trade-Tests division 3 enlisting the occupational needs of units in a division 4 extending the personnel work to staff corps troops 5 establishing the Central Personnel Bureau 6 appointing a committee on education and special training 7 organizing the War Service Exchange 8 rating the officers and candidates for commissions in the Officers Training Camps 10 cooperating with the Provost Marshall General 11 reducing the army paper work 12 enlisting the intelligence ratings of army men and 13 selecting aviators and navy men. The Committee on Classification of Personnel in the Army subsequently became The Classification Division Adjutant-Generals Department. The personnel system of the United States Army developed during 1917 and 1918 was an answer to the demand for a method of increasing the speed and efficiency of mobilization by utilizing to the best advantage the training experience and other qualifications which recruits brought with them from civil life. The system was planned and introduced largely through the efforts of the Committee on Classification of Personnel in the Army a civilian body working under the jurisdiction of the Adjutant General of the Army. The history of this movement is dole in Volume I. Volume II contains "The Personnel Manual". It gives detailed instructions for the actual operation of the personnel system as finally evolved and used during the latter part of 1918. This manual is the product of the experience of a year and is issued in complete form as a series of helpful suggestions so that the Army may profit by them in peace as well as in any future emergency.
