Right title is

  High Frequency War

'5cab once made copies.  Mine's a blur fest fm years back & not fm him.

Did find Germans had maggies & klystrons by '45 - we don't advertise it.
Got their cobalt for alnico magnets fm Japan.  Also VFH & UHF 2-ways
in acft by '44.  Again, buried in 'noise' here.

Air-2-air A10 rocket took out 72 of our bummers in last few days of
'engagement.'  Sheet iron wonder

It seems Germans invented VOR.

Summary sez we shore topped 'em in the military conflict but victory in
technology shows no clear winner.
