SOME WERE INVOLVED IN BOTH. 2 “FLOWERS IN THE KILLING FIELDS II” By Rick Spangle “Flowers in the Killing Fields II” By Rick Spangle PREFACE Here I will thank all of my friends and family for all of their love, kindness, support and encouragement while writing this engaging series of books. 3 “FLOWERS IN THE KILLING FIELDS II” By Rick Spangle “Flowers in the Killing Fields II” By Rick Spangle INTRODUCTION This is the second volume in the series, “Flowers in the Killing Fields”, by Rick Spangle. This volume begins with the Prologue that is a brief 13 pages dedicated to a revealing historical summary of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, from 73 AD to the present day, with some comments about the emergence and early growth of Christianity, the revealing vestiges of the Roman and Holy Roman Empires and some stark comparisons with modern day USA. Next, this volume becomes devoted to the recognition of a few of the people who, throughout the history of this country, were the “Flowers in the Killing Fields” or “Flowers among Warriors”, so to speak. Every war has its OVERT heroes, but we must also remember the unsung and COVERT heroes who get very little credit but who perform or performed services to their country and/or the scientific community way above and beyond the call of duty. Some are persecuted for their highly effective efforts during the Vietnam War, such as Frank Snepp III and Ralph McGeehee mentioned earlier in this series. Some are the unsung heroes of many ferocious battles, both political and combat, of the unpopular war in Vietnam, such as, Paul Reed, Tom Paukin, Harry Reese, Rick Spangle and a few others also reported earlier in this series. Two of these “Flowers” being acknowledged in this book were among the “Founding Fathers” of our country, George Washington and Benjamin Franklin. Eli Whitney is termed by some as the FATHER OF AMERICAN TECHNOLOGY. He produced 25,000 flint lock rifles for the War of 1812. In 1842 Samuel Colt went bankrupt and had no revolvers. The war with Mexico broke out in 1848 and the US government needed guns. They ordered 1000 revolvers from Colt and Colt subcontracted the order to the factory set up by Eli Whitney 40 years earlier and went on to learn about manufacturing guns at Whitney’s factory. Richard Gatling created the most sophisticated gun of all time and Abraham Lincoln, with his political philosophy of balance, strong resolve and propensity for depression, stabilized the American nation at war and gave one of the greatest speeches of all time at Gettysburg, PA. Unknown to most people, George Washington and Benjamin Franklin were the two greatest spies in the entire history of this great country and that fact is why they are featured here. 4 “FLOWERS IN THE KILLING FIELDS II” By Rick Spangle “Flowers in the Killing Fields II” By Rick Spangle Andrew Jackson’s use of covert action, and a plan of deception, at the battle of New Orleans gets him my vote as a “Flower in the Killing Fields”. Eli Whitney’s advancement of, and use of, interchangeable manufactured parts and sub assemblies for the manufacture and repair of guns on a grand scale was a big factor in America winning the war of 1812 where Britain attempted to regain control of the “Colonies”. Whitney was a personal friend of Thomas Jefferson and Whitney received support from our government in the manufacture and repair of guns and the interchangeable parts for guns that he sold. The first chapter will be fairly short and I hope to fill the readers in on a few facts that are not generally known about old George, Ben, Eli, Old Hickory, and the others, including Abraham Lincoln and Allan Pinkerton. Some flowers in the killing fields were captains or soldiers of industry and technology who were maligned or unheralded and unknown during their own time but what they did quietly for our country and our society should be well known and greatly applauded by us and future generations. Such is the case with Allan Pinkerton, George Westinghouse, Nicola Tesla, Kelly Johnson, Henry Singleton, George Roberts and many, many others. These chapters will be developed in much more detail. There are possibly hundreds of these “FLOWERS IN THE KILLING FIELDS” of previous wars and of the Cold War, and sadly, we will only be able to highlight a few and bring them to the attention of many people who have no idea of the tremendous contributions that these people made to winning previous wars, the Cold War and advancing the technologies available to people all over the world. Such is the case with Whitney, Colt, Gatling, Westinghouse, Tesla, Johnson, Singleton, Roberts and many others. We could have picked or included many other people, but this book is devoted to the people that we have chosen, what they did, that is still unknown to most people, to help the founding of this country, win previous wars, win the Cold War and make the contributions they did to create technology for the advancement of the American people and people worldwide. Hopefully this volume will make many people aware of contributions that were made by a few people that were so monumental that their deeds and accomplishments now should be shouted from the rooftops and they should be acknowledged as some of the pioneers of the 5 “FLOWERS IN THE KILLING FIELDS II” By Rick Spangle “Flowers in the Killing Fields II” By Rick Spangle world of the emerging aerospace industries of the late 30’s, 40’s, 50’s, 60’s and 70’s that laid the groundwork and foundations for generations to come in the fields of mathematics, aerospace, semiconductors, computers and other technologies that have helped people all over the world have a better way of life. The people chosen for this volume worked their entire lives on the forefront of these technologies for companies that were mostly involved in research and development that had to be classified and held TOP SECRET at the time because of the Cold War which existed between the forces of socialist Marxist communism and the forces of SEMI-FREE capitalism. As such, most people knew nothing of what was going on behind the scenes to advance these technologies in the face of those attempting to steal these technologies and use them for the destruction of free capitalism and for the ruin of the emerging age of technology and the use of these resources for the advancement of humankind, instead of to its detriment. The people chosen for this volume worked for contractors and sub contractors of the United States Government attempting to protect this country from the emerging Socialist Communist Empire that began with the writings of Karl Marx and then with the Fabian Society, continued with the ultra-violent Russian Marxist Revolution (Lenin, Dzerzhinsky, Stalin and Beria) and continues today with the liberal push for more larger government, more government control of our individual lives, less and less freedom, fewer and fewer individual rights and freedoms, more and more BIGNESS and big governmental control of everything in existence. 6 “FLOWERS IN THE KILLING FIELDS II” By Rick Spangle “Flowers in the Killing Fields II” By Rick Spangle PROLOGUE This is a short 13 page history and explanation of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, some comments regarding the early days of Christianity, and some stark comparisons to the modern day USA I HAVE SPENT A GREAT DEAL OF TIME OVER THE YEARS STUDYING THE ROMAN EMPIRE AND CHRISTIANITY. Actually, the Western Roman Empire did not “FALL” per se, it declined and disintegrated over approximately 400 years, from the time Titus sacked Jerusalem in 73 AD, and then finished building the Coliseum in 80 AD, (or roughly the time that Jesus of Nazareth and Paul the tent maker founded the Christian sect of the Jewish religion, to September 4, 476 AD, when Romulus Augustus, the last Western Roman emperor, was ousted and deposed by Odoacer, a Germanic Barbarian tribal chief. BACKGROUND. This is one of the most difficult and confusing periods of Roman, and Christian (Roman Catholic), history to understand for many reasons including names, dates, battles, senior emperors, junior emperors and lots of stuff going on all over the empire including barbarian invasions, internal and external politics, taxation, corruption, intrigue and the emerging influence of Christianity in general, The Roman Catholic religion, the Roman Catholic Bishops, the Bishop of Rome, more emerging Christianity in general, and the various heresies that took hold during this period from the perspective of the emerging universal (Catholic)

Actual results could differ materially from these forward-looking statements. Many factors, including changes in demand for products sold to the semiconductor, communications and commercial aviation markets, timely development of acceptable and competitive fuel cell products and systems, funding, continuation and award of government programs, receipt of (or failure to receive) government award fees based on collective performance achievements of multiple contractors, the terms of the Company’s renewal of its current products liability insurance policy, continued liquidity of our customers (including commercial airline customers) and economic and political conditions, could change the anticipated results. United States’ and global responses to the Middle East conflict, terrorism and perceived nuclear threats increase uncertainties associated with forward-looking statements about our businesses. Various responses could realign government programs, and affect the composition, funding or timing of our programs. As happened after the September 11th terrorist attacks, reinstatement of flight restrictions would negatively impact the market for general aviation aircraft piston engine and components.
