...Aspin, Albert Gore of Tennessee and Norman Dicks of Washington was urging that the U.S. shift away from large, MIRVed missiles and instead deploy mobile ones with single warheads, like the proposed Midgetman. This had been recommended by Reagan's bipartisan panel on nuclear strategy chaired by Lieut. General Brent Scowcroft, which had nevertheless favored emplacing a limited number of MX missiles while the Midgetman was being developed...
Under the proposal, the U.S. and U.S.S.R. would have to reduce their overall nuclear arsenals by 45% by 1996. The key to the plan is a new unit of destructive power called Standard Weapons Station (SWS), which was developed by retired Air Force Lieut. General Glenn Kent. In its simplest form, an SWS represents a warhead atop a ballistic missile, a bomb on a plane, a self-propelled cruise missile. Kent's plan includes complex formulas so that oversize warheads count extra. So do multiple warheads that are clustered on top of missiles with particularly powerful lifting capability, known...
However brazen the bluff, the name-dropping worked. To prospective investors, Rewald looked gilt-edged by association: he bought a $950,000 house previously owned by deposed Cambodian Strongman Lon Nol and became chummy with Jack Lord, star of the 1968-80 Hawaii Five-O TV series. "Investors" included Lieut. General Arnold Braswell, the Air Force's retiring Pacific commander (more than $100,000), and John Kindschi, the former CIA chief in Honolulu...
...Broadway debut in a revival of Herman Wouk's crackling 1954 drama, The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial. The boudoir eyes and patent leer that marred the actor's film (C.C. and Company) and TV performances were refreshingly absent last week as he took over the role of Lieut. Maryk, a well-intentioned innocent who assumes command of a wartime minesweeper from the unbalanced Lieut. Commander Queeg. Clearly awed to be in the company of such all-pro actors as Michael Moriarty, 42, who plays Defense Attorney Barney Greenwald, and Philip Bosco (Queeg), 53, Namath calls the role...
...When U.S. Vice President George Bush visited the city of Krefeld last June, his car was stoned by so-called chaotics, militant rabblerousers who have attached themselves to the peace movement. In Wiesbaden last month, a member of the Green Party poured a jar of his blood over U.S. Lieut. General Paul Williams. Later, a bomb exploded in a U.S. officers' club near Hahn, and on the same day, antimissile activists tried to disrupt the annual air show at the U.S. Air Force Base at Ramstein...
