pipedreams Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 (edited) "While their mastery of skiing enabled Finns to launch quick, agile attacks on the long, winding columns of Soviet troops and supplies, these armored convoys were still a force to be reckoned with. The Finns thus enhanced the efficacy of their efforts by literally breaking the columns into “bite-sized” pieces that could each be dealt with more easily as smaller units." Lot's of good reading. https://www.artofmanliness.com/articles/sisu-finnish-winter-war/ Edited May 4, 2019 by pipedreams 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pipedreams Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 Dudley A. Buck as an MIT graduate student in 1956. Buck invented not only the cryotron but also the ferroelectric memory, content addressable memory, non-destructive sensing of magnetic fields, and writing printed circuits with a beam of electrons. He earned his Ph.D. in 1958 and died suddenly the next year at the age of 32. There was suspicion that he was murdered by Soviet agents. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pipedreams Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Memphis high school girls, 1958. The caption refers to something terrible happening. That was the federal government forcing southern states to implement the integration of public schools. In response, the parents of these girls took them out of their public high school and sent them to a private boarding school for girls. \ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
