McNair Scholars Program at Portland State University works with motivated and talented undergraduates who want to pursue PhDs. It introduces juniors and seniors who are first-generation and low income, and/or members of under-represented groups to academic research and to effective strategies for getting into and graduating from PhD programs. The McNair Scholars Program has academic-year activities and a full-time summer research internship. Scholars take academic and skills-building seminars and workshops during the year, and each scholar works closely with a faculty mentor on original research in the summer. Scholars present their research findings at the McNair Summer Symposium and at other conferences, and are encouraged to publish their papers in the McNair Journal and other scholarly publications.

  • The Leading One-Stop-Shop for 40Mm Systems in the Infantry Toolbox, the Versatile 40 Mm Ammunition Pallet Closes the Gap Between Hand Grenade and Mortar
    10 September 2019 Rheinmetall – the leading one-stop-shop for 40mm systems In the infantry toolbox, the versatile 40 mm ammunition pallet closes the gap between hand grenade and mortar. It therefore serves as a veritable combat multiplier for infantry and other dismounted troops. Rheinmetall is one of the world's leading suppliers of ammunition, weapon systems and fire control systems and therefore acts as a one-stop shop for 40mm systems. Widely used today, the Group’s 40 mm x 46 low-velocity ammunition (LV, velocity: 78 m/s) is available in many different versions, including HE/fragmentation, shaped charge with fragmentation jacket (HEDP/high explosive dual purpose) as well a number of other service and practice rounds, together with non-lethal payloads such as kinetic impact munitions or irritant. The range of ammunition is constantly being expanded and new capabilities added. Rheinmetall’s 40mm LV ammunition can be fired from all standard standalone and underslung grenade launchers such as the M79 “Blooper”, the M320, HK269, Milkor launchers, the M203 and the SCAR EGLM/ Mk13 Mod 0. Rheinmetall is now the leading maker of new 40mm medium-velocity (MV, ca. 100 m/s) ammunition. This product portfolio includes the new generation of 40mm MV ammunition, which has a maximum effective range of 800 metres, doubling the operator’s reach and providing a flatter trajectory for those crucial close-in, accurately placed shots. Rheinmetall’s MV ammunition is currently undergoing NATO qualification. The 40mm MV ammunition family will soon be available in service and practice versions. It can be used with the multi- shot grenade launchers Milkor US M32A1 and AV 140.

The evolution of the US Infantry Battalion is not that involved, certainly compared to its principal allies and enemies. The Rifle Battalion of October 1940 was superseded beginning in April 1942 by a new Infantry Battalion organization. While this underwent amendments, most particularly in terms of antitank weapons, its overall structure influenced all subsequent Tables of Organization issued for the Battalion. As far as possible, the information included herein is obtained from contemporary documents, with a list of sources and acknowledgements given at the end. There will doubtless be omissions and it may well require some update in the future. A quick note on spelling; while I am British I have gone with the appropriate US spellings in this piece, such as defense, armor and center. This document then gives an outline of the development of the Battalion, before looking at its component subunits in more detail.

  • In 2015, Cornerstone Archaeologists Surveyed a Portion of the Kingman
    BRIEF HISTORY OF KINGMAN ARMY AIRFIELD ©Joshua S. Edwards Cornerstone Environmental Consulting, LLC February 2015 In 2015, Cornerstone archaeologists surveyed a portion of the Kingman Army Air Field (KAAF: Figures 1 and 2) prior to construction of two photovoltaic renewable energy projects. Given that the area was known to be within the KAAF, and near to the headquarters (on the east side of Route 66), the surveyors were not surprised to find that the ground surface was littered with bullets. Local residents are familiar with these findings, as there are hundreds of thousands of bullet slugs commonly found for many square miles around the project area. In May of 1942 the Army Air Force authorized construction of the KAAF in Kingman, one of the nation's six aerial gunnery schools, which was where over 35,000 cadets earned their certificates (Figures 1 and 2; Stone 1991; Stein 1998; Hesse et al. 2010). The Wartime Aircraft Gunnery School was created in response to the United States’ entry into World War II the previous year. Construction began hastily in June 1942 and is estimated to have cost 9 million dollars. Buildings and structures were pre-cut and assembled on-site by specialized construction teams. The primary use of the facility was as an Army Air Force Gunnery School, but the associated Kingman Ground to Ground Gunnery Range and Kingman Air to Air Gunnery Range were located about six miles north of the present city limits of Kingman. From this point, the former practice gunnery ranges extended northward approximately 31 miles, generally following the Hualapai Valley, covering half a million acres from the Cerbat Mountains to the Hualapai Reservation.
