...Korea sent back an emergency call for weapons to stop the Russian T-34 tanks, the lift loaded up with 3.5-inch super-bazookas, followed with tank-killing 90-mm. "shaped charge" ammunition (TIME, Aug. 14). It also hustled out new fighter plane engines, hauled back others for overhaul in U.S. factories...
...Orthopedist Charles H. Bradford, one of the few, went to Britain early in 1940 to help with blitzkrieg casualties. Lately he has plugged hard for an adequate medical defense plan in Massachusetts. Last week, warning the U.S. to prepare for the worst, Dr. Bradford urged an immediate overhaul of the Armed Forces' overlapping medical services...

D. Brown, it was the first trip since he took command last December. Just past Old Point Comfort, the Mighty Mo swung to the north of the familiar channel to run a new acoustic range. The Mighty Mo never swung back. With the sickening sensation that only a sailor can know, Captain Brown felt his ship touch bottom. Slowly, majestically, the 57,600 tons of the Mighty...
