 | The Naval Surface Weapons Center, Dahlgren Laboratory, was responsible for development of the ballistic subsystem of an in-flight extraction escape system which is to be retrofitted into the AH-1 helicopter. Work was done in the following areas of the ballistic subsystem: (1) rotor blade severance; (2) canopy jettison; (3) gunsight retraction; (4) launcher for the extraction rocket; (5) lap belt release; and (6) initiation, sequencing and energy transfer. Also a ... |

| The experiment was undertaken to explore practicable measures that might minimize dehydration and other metabolic derangements in a fasting, arctic survival situation. Twenty-eight men, divided into four groups, were fed a standard diet of USAF IF No. 10 rations in barracks for two days, then subjected to a three-day simulated survival situation, followed by two days of standard diet in barracks. Group A received no supplements, Group B received an ... |

|
| The basis of current arctic survival ration is 'pemmican' or a meat bar composed of powdered lean meat mixed with fat. The present experiment compares, under survival conditions, metabolic changes in men fasting completely, men receiving sucrose and electrolyte supplements, and men receiving the meat bar. Eighteen men divided into three groups of six men each, ate a standard diet of USAF IF No. 10 rations in barracks for two ... |
