When we began this line of research at Sandia National Laboratories, we were primarily concerned with landmines. One of our first efforts was to characterize the surface contamination on some typical mines. For this work we obtained some Soviet mines from the U.S. Marine Corps.

Joseph J. Breen was born in Waterbury, Connecticut, on July 22, 1942. He earned his bachelor s degree from Fairfield University in 1964 and his doctorate in chemistry from Duke University in 1972.

During his tenure at the EPA, Breen was also an adjunct professor in environmental chemistry at Hood College, in Frederick, Maryland, and at Trinity College and American University in Washington, D.C. 

In 2005 and 2007 (Phase 2), a more recent study for the U. S. Marine Corps, by Hill et al., evaluated 13 self-applied tourniquets for their applicability in combat applications. This study attempted to measure the functionality of the candidate tourniquets in battlefield conditions by immersing them in a simulated blood/sand mixture prior to testing. In contrast to the earlier Army study by Walters et al., the conclusion drawn from this study was the recommendation that one of the ratcheting or stretch-retention type tourniquet systems be adopted for combat deployment. These types had the best user subjective ratings as well as the lowest application times especially on the upper extremities where one-handed application was required. The recommended group had application times 30-50% lower on the upper extremities than the windlass types recommended by the Army study. Velcro was observed to lose its effectiveness as a clamp when it became fouled with wet sand or mud and, therefore, should be avoided. It should be noted that none of the tourniquet types used in the Marine Corps study were pneumatic.

Dragon Eye is a tactical reconnaissance and surveillance UAV that is currently used by the U.S. Marine Corps. While it does not fit within the MAV classification. Dragon Eye is smaller than most commercially available UAVs, with a wingspan of 1.1m and a mass of 2.3 kg. AeroVi-ronment s most famous MAV is the Black Widow, show in Fig. la. Due to the desire to have the maximum possible wing area, but still fit within the MAV definition. 

With increasing frequency the first responders to worldwide post-disaster and postconflict crises are the U.S. and allied armed forces. In 1997 former U.S. Marine Corps Commandant Charles Krulak coined the term three-block war to describe the combat, peace enforcement, and humanitarian missions that the U.S. military could be expected to perform within a three-block radius of a given urban center. This is a striking contrast with conventional wars of bygone eras. For that reason, a new U.S. Army Field Manual (FM) 3-07 represents a milestone in Army doctrine a much needed roadmap from conflict to peace, a practical guidebook that institutionalizes the hard-won lessons of the past. FM 3-07 also outlines the military history of the United States, contrary to popular belief, as one characterized by stability operations, interrupted by distinct episodes of major combat. Since 1775 U.S.
