Aerial Photography Part 3 – Developments During World War Ii
SOUTH AUSTRALIAN AVIATION MUSEUM SIGNIFICANT AVIATOR & AVIATION EVENTS PROFILES AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHY PART 3 – DEVELOPMENTS DURING WORLD WAR II In September 1910, when Captain Bertram Dickson used his Bristol Boxkite to demonstrate, to high- ranking British military officers and the then Home Secretary Winston Churchill, the potential for aeroplanes to perform a military reconnaissance role from the air and report back, far quicker than cavalry forces of the day, it must have been hard to imagine that in less than a decade, further developments would bring superior aircraft, partly automated cameras capable of capturing fine detail, the ability to produce up-to-date photomaps in the form of mosaics, and the ability to view the lay of the land stereoscopically. Early in WWI, observation balloons were still in use, but within six days of arriving in France, Royal Flying Corps (RFC) aviators flew their first aerial reconnaissance mission. Within six weeks of British aircraft arriving in France and after the armies fighting on both fronts moved into defensive positions in trenches, as well as locating and reporting on enemy movements, Allied aviators also took on an artillery observation role. Initially, reconnaissance aircraft were unarmed and generally remained on their side of the lines. Both sides quickly realized the great advantages to be gained by mobile aerial reconnaissance, the value of seeing what was going on behind enemy lines, and obviously, the need to suppress the enemy from doing likewise. Aircrews began carrying revolvers and rifles, and a practice soon began of taking potshots at enemy aircraft, to scare them away from their role of observing respective enemy positions. -
AMERICAN INFERNO by PATRICK DENKER
AMERICAN INFERNO by PATRICK DENKER (Under the Direction of Reginald McKnight) ABSTRACT American Inferno, a novel, is a loose transposition of Dante‟s Inferno into a contemporary American setting. Its chapters (or “circles”) correspond to Dante‟s nine circles of Hell: 1) Limbo, 2) Lust, 3) Gluttony, 4) Hoarding & Wasting, 5) Wrath, 6) Heresy, 7) Violence, 8) Fraud and 9) Treachery. The novel‟s Prologue — Circle 0 — corresponds to the events that occur, in the Inferno, prior to Dante‟s and Virgil‟s entrance into Hell proper. The novel is a contemporary American moral inquiry, not a medieval Florentine one: thus it is sometimes in harmony with and sometimes a critique of Dante‟s moral system. Also, like the Inferno, it is not an investigation just of its characters‟ personal moral struggles, but also of the historical sins of its nation: for Dante, the nascent Italian state; for us, the United States. Thus the novel follows the life story of its principal character as he progresses from menial to mortal sins while simultaneously considering American history from America‟s early Puritan foundations in the Northeast (Chapters 1-4) through slavery, civil war and manifest destiny (Chapters 5-7) to its ultimate expression in the high-technology West-Coast entertainment industry (Chapters 8-9).

Drone Flight and Failure: the United States’ Secret Trials, Experiments and Operations in Unmanning, 1936-1973
Drone Flight and Failure: the United States’ Secret Trials, Experiments and Operations in Unmanning, 1936-1973 By Katherine Fehr Chandler A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Rhetoric and the Designated Emphasis in New Media in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor David Bates, Co-Chair Professor Charis Thompson, Co-Chair Professor Samera Esmeir Professor Jake Kosek Spring 2014 Drone Flight and Failure: the United States’ Secret Trials, Experiments and Operations in Unmanning, 1936-1973 ©2014 by Katherine Fehr Chandler Abstract Drone Flight and Failure: the United States’ Secret Trials, Experiments and Operations in Unmanning, 1936-1973 by Katherine Fehr Chandler Doctor of Philosophy in Rhetoric and the Designated Emphasis in New Media University of California, Berkeley Professor David Bates, Co-Chair Professor Charis Thompson, Co-Chair I examine the precursors to contemporary unmanned combat air vehicles (UCAVs) to ask what is at stake in the designation “unmanned?” The apparent misnomer dissociates technologies and humans, occluding how international interventions, including surveillance, military support, signals intelligence, and targeted killing, are carried out through actions networked between humans and nonhumans. I use a genealogical approach to address how tensions and contradictions articulated by unmanning emerge, using the development, operation and failure of unmanned systems to complicate divisions between human and nonhuman; “us” and the enemy; immersion and distance; military and industry; and above and below. I identify two phases in the development of remote controlled and unmanned aircraft in the United States: targeting and reconnaissance. -

From reef to reef, the atoll is approximately 5 miles long and 2.5 miles wide. At 19 degrees 17 minutes north latitude and 166 degrees 3 8 minutes east longitude, the atoll lies just west of the International Date Line. Wake Atoll is 2,458 miles west ofHawai'i, 1,591 miles east of Guam, and 691 miles north ofKwajalein in the Marshall Islands (Aaron 2008:1-1). (Refer to Figure 1).

Transforming the Transformed
S. Carstens, Int. J. of Herit. Archit., Vol. 1, No. 2 (2017) 247–255 TRANSFORMING THE TRANSFORMED S. CARSTENS Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Norway. ABSTRACT The purpose of this article is to examine how Marinewerft Drontheim, U Boot Stutzpunkt DORA, estab- lished at Nyhavna (Trondheim, Norway) during World War II, faced fundamental changes regarding its physical outlook and intended role and use after World War II. The changes were due to an interplay of prewar plans, post-war distance towards occupation and changing socioeconomic realities and trends in urban development ideology. We ask how this German submarine base was understood in post-war Trondheim. How could the basic principles behind the gradual transformation into a massive non-military complex be described, and what was the result of this process? Trondheim is currently growing. The har- bour areas are natural urban renewal sites. In 2015, the municipal authorities put forward a plan for the transformation of Nyhavna into an urban city area. Most of the post-war buildings were to be demolished; however, the remnants of the German naval yard were not to face such a destiny. These buildings with their ‘extreme’ architecture and massively powerful outlook appear as a defining principle for further development of a new urban city district. The article examines the changing perspectives, visions and un- derstandings applied by local authorities during the last decades. This leads towards an understanding of how this area came to be regarded as a potential hub for a major urban redevelopment plan transforming a post-military/industrial town area into an area wherein the larger part is occupied by residential quarters. -
Canadian Airmen Lost in Wwii by Date 1942
CANADA'S AIR WAR 1942 updated 21/03/07 During the year the chief RCAF Medical Officer in England, W/C A.R. Tilley, moved from London to East Grinstead where his training in reconstructive surgery could be put to effective use (R. Donovan). See July 1944. January 1942 419 Sqn. begins to equip with Wellington Ic aircraft (RCAF Sqns.). Air Marshal H. Edwards was posted from Ottawa, where as Air Member for Personnel he had overseen recruitment of instructors and other skilled people during the expansion of the BCATP, to London, England, to supervise the expansion of the RCAF overseas. There he finds that RCAF airmen sent overseas are not being tracked or properly supported by the RAF. At this time the location of some 6,000 RCAF airmen seconded to RAF units are unknown to the RCAF. He immediately takes steps to change this, and eventually had RCAF offices set up in Egypt and India to provide administrative support to RCAF airmen posted to these areas. He also begins pressing for the establishment of truly RCAF squadrons under Article 15 (a program sometimes referred to as "Canadianization"), despite great opposition from the RAF (E. Cable). He succeeded, but at the cost of his health, leading to his early retirement in 1944. Early in the year the Fa 223 helicopter was approved for production. In a program designed by E.A. Bott the results of psychological testing on 5,000 personnel selected for aircrew during 1942 were compared with the results of the actual training to determine which tests were the most useful. -
