Hi Jeff,

I better stop being a cuckoo in the nest here. Russian tanks and APC's did/do? maintain air pressure within the vehicles above 15psi to keep out NBC. My father knew Barnes W. He also had something to do with cocooning of deck cargoes for Russian convoys. It was mooted he should go on a voyage, but ICI said NO!.

I watched a video on You Tube yesterday. Even I was shocked, although I knew some of it. It stated to begin with that there is no weapon today that was not in some stage of development in Germany during the War, lasers, semi conductors/chips, miniaturised computers, smart bombs and I can't remember the rest. Showed a set of 4 photographs of a smart bomb being tested in the Baltic against a target ship, including going through an aperture just as the Gulf War examples.
