With a proper combination of ' Ex- pamet"' Expanded Steel and Concrete, light thin slabbing is obtainable of great strength and fire-resistant efficiency; it effects a considerable reduction in dead-weight of super- structure and in vertical building height, and it is used extensively in any type of building-brick, steel, reinforced concrete, etc. "Expamet" ensures an even dis- tribution of stress throughout the concrete work; as all the strands or members are connected rigidly, they cannot be displaced by the laying and tamping of the concrete.

ALUMINEX ROOF GLAZING-bars, shoes, and cover-strips-is made of a non- ferrous alloy similar to that used by Alfred Gilbert for Eros. Every ALUMINEX component is of solid section in this non-corrodible metal. ALUMINEX GLAZING BARS are as unique in design as they are in material. The patented continuous cover-strip does away with the need for storm-clips and although lighter in weight the bars are equal in strength-span for span-to lead-clothed bars. ALUMINEX ROOF GLAZING has been tested by the Building Research Station with most favourable results-and installations in such widely differing buildings as factories, nursery-schools, drill halls, hospitals, prisons, etc., reveal its adaptability.

An unique "Service" FOR anyone proceeding abroad to a new station we have a file of unbiased reports from Officers stationed at practically every place abroad, where H.M. Services are called upon to serve. These reports are not the usual handbook or tourist in- formation, but deal with everything appertaining to each station, (sic) quarters-bachelor or married-servants, ayahs, and wages, what kit to take and what to leave behind, whether furniture can be hired locally, nearest Hill Stations and costs, what games, shooting, fishing, hunting, polo, pig-sticking or racing, social amenities of station, clubs, gymkhanas, and subscriptions, and a lot of other " helpful" information. The single officer therefore learns what kit he'll need and what he can avoid getting. The married know what to take out and what they can get locally-all of these reports are the actual unbiased reports of Officers serving in the stations. This " Information File " of ours is the result of over 70 years' experience and many years' organization on our customers' behalf. On these premises, under one roof, you can select everything you need. TAILORING, PERSONAL WEAR, LUGGAGE, GAMES KIT-EVERYTHING. We can pack it all for you and anything else you send in to us. F.P.

This thesis examines field expedient modifications to US armored vehicles by US Army and US Marine Corps armored vehicle crewmen during World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War. Two major categories of modifications are examined. They are modifications to improve the primary protection of armored vehicles and modifications to improve the secondary protection of armored vehicles. Some of the specific types of modifications analyzed are hedgerow cutters, sand bagging, addition or modification of ancillary weapons, communications improvements, camouflage, rocket propelled grenade screens, and addition of concrete.

Friesen October 1999 National Défense KINGSTON, ONT, CANADA Defence nationale OPERATIONAL RESEARCH DIVISION CATEGORIES OF PUBLICATION ORD Reports are the most authoritative and most carefully considered publications of the DGOR scientific community. They normally embody the results of major research activities or are significant works of lasting value or provide a comprehensive view on major defence research initiatives. ORD Reports are approved personally by DGOR, and are subject to peer review. ORD Project Reports record the analysis and results of studies conducted for specific sponsors. This Category is the main vehicle to report completed research to the sponsors and may also describe a significant milestone in ongoing work. They are approved by DGOR and are subject to peer review. They are released initially to sponsors and may, with sponsor approval, be released to other agencies having an interest in the material. Directorate Research Notes are issued by directorates. They are intended to outline, develop or document proposals, ideas, analysis or models which do not warrant more formal publication. They may record development work done in support of sponsored projects which could be applied elsewhere in the future. As such they help serve as the corporate scientific memory of the directorates. ORD Journal Reprints provide readily available copies of articles published with DGOR approval, by OR researchers in learned journals, open technical publications, proceedings, etc. ORD Contractor Reports document research done under contract of DGOR agencies by industrial concerns, universities, consultants, other government departments or agencies, etc.
