Abstract

About ten years ago the Army, responding to pointed suggestions of Luis Alvarez, decided that an army that could be effective night and day would be twice as useful and probably twice as effective as an army that could act only while the sun was up. With that decision came concerted efforts to turn the technology of cathodes, electron optics, phosphors and optical coupling into a viable program to give the soldier the ability to see at night.
