Through my service work I've come to realize, that via your ABET curriculum-setting and standards involvement, that even as a non-member, I've really been connected to ASME since my undergraduate training days in the ME building called "Old Main," at Clarkson University in Potsdam, New York (BSME '92). As our Society considers simplifying its volunteer bureaucracy, I feel it's important for ASME executives to understand why "District-A" - and National - level volunteer service was structured this way to begin with. My strong feeling - and this could be confirmed via long-time ASME History and Heritage volunteers - is that the District- level hierarchy was initially created to mimic and offer a chance for working engineers - many of us at one point or Vibo-Rama includes vendor exhibits and technical recently immigrants from other countries - to become familiar with and practice fundamental ideals of American presentations for PDH credit.

C. 2003 i Library of Congress Cataloging-in-Publication Data Schlight, John. Help from above : Air Force close air support of the Army 1946-1973 / John Schlight. p. cm. Includes bibliographical references and index. 1. Close air support--History--20th century. 2. United States. Air Force--History--20th century. 3. United States. Army--Aviation--History--20th century. I. Title. UG703.S35 2003 358.4'142--dc22 2003020365 ii Foreword The issue of close air support by the United States Air Force in sup- port of, primarily, the United States Army has been fractious for years. Air commanders have clashed continually with ground leaders over the proper use of aircraft in the support of ground operations. This is perhaps not surprising given the very different outlooks of the two services on what constitutes prop- er air support. Often this has turned into a competition between the two serv- ices for resources to execute and control close air support operations. Although such differences extend well back to the initial use of the airplane as a military weapon, in this book the author looks at the period 1946- 1973, a period in which technological advances in the form of jet aircraft, weapons, communications, and other electronic equipment played significant roles. Doctrine, too, evolved and this very important subject is discussed in detail. Close air support remains a critical mission today and the lessons of yesterday should not be ignored. This book makes a notable contribution in seeing that it is not ignored.

  • USGS Scientific Investigations Map 2832, Pamphlet
    Geologic Map of Mount Mazama and Crater Lake Caldera, Oregon By Charles R. Bacon Pamphlet to accompany Scientific Investigations Map 2832 View from the south-southwest rim of Crater Lake caldera showing the caldera wall from Hillman Peak on the west to Cleetwood Cove on the north. Crater Lake fills half of the 8- by 10-km-diameter caldera formed during the climactic eruption of Mount Mazama volcano approximately 7,700 years ago. Volcanic rocks exposed in the caldera walls and on the flanks record over 400,000 years of eruptive history. The exposed cinder cone and andesite lava flows on Wizard Island represent only 2 percent of the total volume of postcaldera volcanic rock that is largely covered by Crater Lake. Beyond Wizard Island, the great cliff of Llao Rock, rhyodacite lava emplaced 100–200 years before the caldera-forming eruption, dominates the northwest caldera wall where andesite lava flows at the lakeshore are approximately 150,000 years old. 2008 U.S. Department of the Interior U.S. Geological Survey This page intentionally left blank.
