I'll grant this isn't _entirely_ military, but, close enough. I'm trying to figure out how big/how weighty a programmed remote transmitter using early 1960s...
I think you should probably rethink "programmed." I was a little kid then, but I can remember when computers were the size of rooms and required a really...

Okay, I know, it's always Stargate with me. But, this is a little different. Where in the early-mid1960s would you put a topsecret project that shouldn't be...
Well, there's definitely something which has been going on for a long time, over at Montauk. It's a mystery, as to precisely what it could have been, but the...

An English gent told me about a really neat site. At it, a number of national libraries have come together to offer books published before 1920 or out of...

Can anyone direct me to a site where I can find out about current and past US Army bases in California? I need to build sort of a timeline for where they were...

I have a male character who is a full bird Colonel in the US Marines. He is also a medical doctor. I'm afraid my knowledge of this type of character begins...
