This book was released on 2009 with total page 1203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Weapons Safety Division, Headquarters, Air Force Safety Center (HQAFSC/SEW) and Radiation Health Branch, USAF School of Aerospace Medicine (USAFSAM/OEHH) performed radiological scoping surveys on Boeing Michigan Aeronautical Research Center (BOMARC) site structures. Work coincided with oversight responsibilities during final status surveys and spot remediation under contract to Cabrera Services, and later remedial actions in pits and bunkers. In general, survey findings were comparative to survey measurements of shelter interiors performed during the Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study in 1990. Based on reasonable future uses of the shelters, residual contamination levels are well below criterion recommended in the scoping survey workplan in support of ongoing site activities, or demolition of concrete and re-use. In addition, an evaluation of residual contamination to the 15 mrem in a year criterion for unrestricted use specified in New Jersey Administrative Code (NJAC) 4:28 was accomplished, though this code is not applicable to the site while under DoD control. Structure met the criterion of the code.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Weapons Safety Division of Headquarters, Air Force Safety Center (HQAFSC/SEW) and Radiation Surveillance Division, Air Force Institute for Operational Health (AFIOH/SDR jointly agreed to perform radiological scoping surveys of select structures on the Boeing Michigan Aeronautical Research Center (BOMARC) site. The work coincides with on-site oversight responsibilities of the two organizations during final status surveys and spot remediation under contract to Cabrera Services. The report details the strategy for conducting scoping surveys. In addition the report provides a comprehensive review of the risk analysis that was accomplished in the Remedial Investigation/Feasibility, that formed the basis for the Record of Decision (ROD). In particular, the discrete particle intake paradigm was discussed and other issues that raised recent concerns on the applicability of the risk analysis accomplished in the ROD. Criteria for acceptable surface contamination levels for shelter interiors were proposed. One for continued intermittent use with institutional controls inplace and the other under a shelter demolition/on-site burial assumption.

Book Synopsis ARCHIE, FLAK, AAA, And SAM: A Short Operational History Of Ground-Based Air Defense [Illustrated Edition] by : Dr. Kenneth P. Werrell
Download or read book ARCHIE, FLAK, AAA, And SAM: A Short Operational History Of Ground-Based Air Defense [Illustrated Edition] written by Dr. Kenneth P. Werrell and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Includes over 90 illustrations ‘Dr Kenneth Werrell’s history of ground-based air defense performs an important service both to scholarship and, more important, to the defense of our nation’s freedom. It is perhaps human nature that we tend over time to lose sight of the lessons of the past, especially when they do not conform to certain cherished preconceptions of ours. That such myopia can be dangerous, if not downright disastrous, Doctor Werrell’s study richly illustrates. Without sentimentalism, he chronicles a pattern of lessons learned and too quickly forgotten, as the marvel of air power was reminded again and again of its limitations and vulnerability. In Korea and in Vietnam, the American people were stripped of their illusions of national and technical omnipotence. The unhappy outcome of those two conflicts were doubly lamentable because the lessons of World War II were—or should have been—fresh in our minds. In that world war, as Doctor Werrell shows, relatively cheap ground-based air defense did make a difference: at Ploesti, at Antwerp, and at the Rhine bridges.
Book Synopsis Defending Air Bases in an Age of Insurgency by : Shannon Caudill
Download or read book Defending Air Bases in an Age of Insurgency written by Shannon Caudill and published by Military Bookshop. This book was released on 2014-08 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology discusses the converging operational issues of air base defense and counterinsurgency. It explores the diverse challenges associated with defending air assets and joint personnel in a counterinsurgency environment. The authors are primarily Air Force officers from security forces, intelligence, and the office of special investigations, but works are included from a US Air Force pilot and a Canadian air force officer. The authors examine lessons from Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, and other conflicts as they relate to securing air bases and sustaining air operations in a high-threat counterinsurgency environment. The essays review the capabilities, doctrine, tactics, and training needed in base defense operations and recommend ways in which to build a strong, synchronized ground defense partnership with joint and combined forces. The authors offer recommendations on the development of combat leaders with the depth of knowledge, tactical and operational skill sets, and counterinsurgency mind set necessary to be effective in the modern asymmetric battlefield.

Book Synopsis Leading the Way by : Ronald B. Hartzer
Download or read book Leading the Way written by Ronald B. Hartzer and published by U.S. Government Printing Office. This book was released on 2014 with total page 846 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Leading the way describes how the men and women of Air Force civil engineering have provided the basing that enabled the Air Force to fly, fight, and win. This book depicts how engineers built hundreds of bases during World Wars I and II, Korea, Vietnam, the Gulf War, and Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom. At the same time, these engineers operated and maintained a global network of enduring, peacetime bases. It describes the engineers' role in special projects such as the ballistic missile program, the Arctic early warning sites, and construction of the U.S. Air Force Academy. Using hundreds of sources, this detailed narrative tells the story of how civil engineers have been organized, trained, equipped, and employed for more than 100 years. From the beaches of Normandy to the mountains of Afghanistan, civil engineers have forged an unmatched record of success and built a solid foundation for today's Air Force."--Back cover.
Book Synopsis Space-Age Acronyms by : Reta C. Moser
Download or read book Space-Age Acronyms written by Reta C. Moser and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acronym agglomeration is an affliction of the age, and there are acronym addicts who, in their weakness, find it impossible to resist them. More than once in recent months my peers have cautioned me about my apparent readiness to use not only acronyms, but abbreviations, foreign isms, codes, and other cryptic symbols rather than common, ordinary American words. Many among us, though, either have not received or have chosen to ignore such advice. As a consequence, what we write and speak is full of mystery and confusion. It is then for the reader and listener and for the writer and speaker that Reta C. Moser has compiled this guide. Its effective application to the art of communication is urged. Such use should help avoid many of the misunderstandings involving terminology which occur daily. Although such misunderstandings are certainly crucial in humanistic and social situations, they are often of immediate import and the trigger to disaster in scientific, technical, and political situations. Some 15,000 acronyms and 25,000 definitions are provided (a 50- and 47 -percent increase over the 1964 edition!), with due credit to Miss Moser's diligence in making the compilation and with the acknowledgment that the acronymical phenomenon is very much with us. This edition, like the first, is certain to be of value to writers, librarians, editors, and others who must identify and deal with acronyms.

Book Synopsis Canadian Nuclear Weapons by : John Clearwater
Download or read book Canadian Nuclear Weapons written by John Clearwater and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 1998-02-01 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We are thus not only the first country in the world with the capability to produce nuclear weapons that chose not to do so, we are also the first nuclear armed country to have chosen to divest itself of nuclear weapons." Pierre Trudeau United Nations, 26 May 1978 From 1963 to 1984, US nuclear warheads armed Canadian weapons systems in both Canada and West Germany. It is likely that during the early part of this period, the Canadian military was putting more effort, money, and manpower into the nuclear commitment than any other single activity. This important book is an operational-technical history and exposÈ of this period. Its purpose is to bring together until-recently secret information about the nature of the nuclear arsenal in Canada, and combine it with known information about the systems in the US nuclear arsenal. The work begins with an account of the efforts of the Pearson government to sign the agreement with the US necessary to bring nuclear weapons to Canada. Subsequent chapters provide a detailed discussion of the four nuclear weapons systems deployed by Canada: the BOMARC surface-to-air guided interceptor missile; the Honest John short range battlefield rocket; the Starfighter tactical thermonuclear bomber; the VooDoo-Genie air defence system. Each chapter also includes a section on the accidents and incidents which occurred while the weapons were at Canadian sites. The final chapter covers the ultimately futile efforts of the Maritime Air Command and the Royal Canadian Navy to acquire nuclear weapons. An appendix includes the text of the until-now secret agreements Canada signed with the USA for the provision of nuclear weapons. Illustrated throughout with photographs and diagrams, and supported by extensive transcriptions of original documents, Canadian Nuclear Weapons will be of great value both to scholars and interested laypersons in its presentation of what has been a deeply hidden secret of Canadian political and military history.
