Technology Assessment

Protecting Structures and Improving Communications During Wild Land Fires

By: Robin M. Nazzaro (au),Keith A. Rhodes (au)

Since 1984, wildland fires have burned 850+ homes each year & the number of homes at risk is growing. The primary responsibility for ensuring that preventive steps are taken to protect homes lies with homeowners & state & local gov'ts., not the fed. gov't. The ability to communicate among all parties fighting a fire -- known as interoperability -- is essential, but is hampered because different public safety agencies operate on different radio frequencies or use incompatible communications equip. This report assesses: measures that can help protect structures from wildland fires, factors affecting use of protective measures, & the role technology plays in improving firefighting agencies' ability to communicate during wildland fires. Charts & tables.

Dod Excess Property

Risk Assessment Needed on Public Sales of Equipment That Could Be Used to Make Biological Agents

By: Gregory D. Kutz,Keith A. Rhodes,Robert J. Cramer

Due to concerns about bioterrorism and the potential for anthrax attacks, the GAO was asked to audit controls over public sales of excess DoD biol'l. equip. (BE) and chem. and biological protective clothing (CBPC) that could be used to produce and disseminate biol'l. warfare agents (BWA). GAO found that many items needed to establish a lab for making BWA were being sold on the Internet to the public from DoD's excess property inventory for pennies on the dollar, making them both easy and economical to obtain. It determined: the extent to which DoD is selling BE and CBPC that can be used to make and disseminate BWA; and whether existing Fed. regulations and guidance in DoD policies and procedures address the risk of public sales of these items. B&W photos.

The Boer War

A History

By: Denis Judd,Keith Surridge

The Boer War of 1899-1902 was an epic of heroism and bungling, cunning and barbarism, with an extraordinary cast of characters - including Churchill, Rhodes, Conan Doyle, Smuts, Kipling, Gandhi, Kruger and Kitchener. The war revealed the ineptitude of the British military and unexpectedly exposed the corrupt underside of imperialism in the establishment of the first concentration camps, the shooting of Boer prisoners-of-war and the embezzlement of military supplies by British officers. This acclaimed book provides a complete history of the Boer War - from the first signs of unrest to the eventual peace. In the process, it debunks several of the myths which have grown up around the conflict and explores the deadly legacy it left for southern Africa.
