Additional information
The work reported was begun in 1956 at Lackland A.F.B. under ARDC Project No. 7740 and is continuing at the present time. Although a number of individual experiments have been reported (mostly at M.P.A. meetings) no published report is available and none will be attempted until the projected series is completed. The present paper is a brief preliminary report of the program, procedures and progress to date.
