Turkey's independence
I did not want anything else.
Therefore, we are not afraid of death.
And I myself at age 24
I am honored to present Turkey's independence.
Our only longing for the independence of Turkey in spite of being in charge. We have never not been able to ensure the independence of Turkey, despite all our efforts.
We had 50 years before the War of Independence War of Independence as a real analysis of the country's children do not always capable to. We still know very well that to make the War of Independence in Samsun Turkey Istanbul customary authorities and the courts of those who are given the death penalty. And yet we know that hundreds of the Ottoman Empire GeneraLink but a few of them participated in the War of Independence. And yet we know that at the time of the War of Independence in Istanbul, said the bandits those who hit them.
Came to power in 1950, the American imperialism. May 27, 1960 Democratic power was lost to history. The Democratic Party is gone, gone tellaklar it has not changed. I do not mean May 27, that mean later. Hammam tellaklar the same, but this time has changed. Inonu overtake America in this period reduced the breach, Demirel brought to power.
Those who have really got it, they're the ones to Mustafa Kemal
As for the movement of students, student events, 50-60 years, Turkey has not been missing. Thrown into the sea from the date of hundred students of Sultan Hamit Medical School student movements in Turkey edegelmiştir continue. Gençlerdi progressive young people who said no to fascism during the Second World War. And the young people that the war of freedom on April 28, 1960. Inonu by American imperialism, the government dropped the young progressive young people engaged in protest. Loyalty to the Constitution, we have made in meeting in. Rental of power, and police beatings of his men who ate that day rally in bizlerdik again.
As for the year 1968, universities were occupied by students. It was quite legitimate occupations and occupations, even lectern landlords could not deny the justness of any time. In July the same year, the ones demonstrating against the American fleet was killed brutally by the police Vedat Demir. Revolutionary forces and the police brutally attacked on the rental of power. 20 killed close to revolutionary. They found none of the killer. Police stations became işkencehane. No prosecutor did not fight it. Intellectual freedom and those who cover the Constitution, "His ideas and personality in the pre-Kemalist geçinirken began to see small, only beğeniyorlardı side of Mustafa Kemal." I do not accept and will never refuse to blame for sure. Other patriots will not accept it too.
Facts örtülmek requested. Those who have really got it, they're the ones to Mustafa Kemal. His principle of independence-i fully, and his ideal of independence-i only, we are continuing full Turkey.
're The ones defending the Constitution at most
Our Constitution has been suggested that we attempt to ilgaya İddianame'de enforcement. Arzetmiş all along that I, like most defenders of the Constitution in this country ones. Edenlerse clear violation of the Constitution. 're The ones who want to apply the Constitution again. And whoever is still clear that the Constitution not apply yavuz. And yet we give our people want it. Even if the prosecution of our Constitution even suggests that we attempt to ilgaya.
We are giving our War of Independence against İdddia authority. Against the Constitution of the Republic of Turkey, against the reforms and, therefore, suggests that we attempt to ilgaya our Constitution. Because it is still in the middle gezmektedir Suleyman Demirel. Yetiyorsa lawsuit might bring up the same way about Suleyman Demirel, the country's 36 million they destroy all the burden on young people alışmışlardır 20.
America during your input, and none of the country, picked up your voice
Deprive their children of being an independent country, including all of us who are you. Because America and the none of you came to Turkey during the period, picked up your voice. And the power of the Democratic Party could do for 10 years. 38 Til sound until you remove the patriotic officers and up to devirene them. And today, the prosecutors decided to put to death about this party wants. Suleyman Demirel, a violation of the Constitution and despotism, and the country been brought to America to sell audio.
And we had to fight with us against them in the squares, we kurşunlandık. And in the end were brought here voluntarily executed
Our enemy is
American imperialism and the local collaborators
As I said, this makes Turkey the old managers are required to undertake all the crimes to us. Of all the managers are required to yükletilmek blame us.
Turkey's independence and the lives we did not want anything more than put it this way. We gave existence to the people of Turkey. Traitor who claim the opposite. Memorandum of March 12 had not been successful in accusing us of the authority would have charged them the same way. This opinion is also complete. Memorandum of March 12 of the Constitution clearly not following claims and accused the parliament.
Strtaejik thoughts as we do not keep any time. Let's be clear that if we say under what circumstances. 'll Take up our thoughts to the grave. How we speak here in the shadow of barrels and butts we express our thoughts are always clear. If I like the one we mean by our Constitution ilgaya attempt, saying it clearly here that çekinmezdik. Our goal is that there is a.
Our enemies of American imperialism and its local collaborators. In other words, the bosses who collaborate with imperialism, feudal mütagallibe bezirgânlar ie, usurers. Landlords and other collaborators and all our actions are directed towards this goal. In addition, there is another goal.
Million square meters of land occupied country under the shaft accused of corrupting the integrity of
The security of our people, property rights, the principles of sovereignty, national action to disrupt the integrity of the claims of the past are. Who are those who violate the security of person. Firstly we have to determine this. We've tortured in police stations. We still have kurşunlanan squares. We've thrown in jail by order of the Ministers. However, the safety of people accused of being disturbing ediliyoruz. Described above, the security of real people in bozanlar circulate freely in the squares.
Kaldıracağımız eliminate the right of ownership is claimed. Mülkeyet Constitution itself limited the right to the benefit of society. Did not recognize the absolute right of property. Constitution of the village has not adopted a land ağasını 50. Those who oppose the principles of sovereignty of the people geçinenlerdir back.
In addition, also accused of opposing national unity. 101 grain American base in the country is ridiculous not been accused of wanting to ruin our national integrity. Million square meters of land occupied country under the corrupting our national integrity suçlanmamız ridiculous.
They want to ask 21 young people of 21 years account
Mustafa Kemal had been alive today, many şaşırırdı. The indictment was prepared in order to request a poll just beginning. Devoid of formal logic in the law. Securities and devoid of legal value. 21 young people in order to ask the criminals to account, and the frenzy of 21 years in the indictment, crafted.
See I would argue that the movement is a movement entirely constitutional. We used the initial policy, the nation's Constitution, the right to resist oppression. For this reason, have made a constitutional act. I believe it is justified Yaptıklamızın. Still carry this belief.
Turkey did not want anything else bağımsızlğından. And for this reason we have to fight against American imperialism, and collaborators. Therefore, we are not afraid of death. I think, but collaborators. And the excitement over, but they bent their dream. And I'm 24 years old, I am honored to armğan Turkey's independence. This idea of independence, we will take to the grave
DENİZLER E......
Türkiye'nin bağımsızlığından
başka bir şey istemedim.
Bundan dolayı da ölümden korkmuyoruz.
Ve ben 24 yaşındayken kendimi
Türkiye'nin bağımsızlığına armağan etmekten onur duyuyorum.
Bizlerin tek özlemi tahsil sırasında bulunmamıza rağmen Türkiye'nin bağımsızlığıdır. Biz hiçbir zaman bütün çabamıza rağmen Türkiye'nin bağımsızlığını temin edemedik.
Biz 50 sene evvel Kurtuluş Savaşı vermiş bir ülkenin çocukları olarak Kurtuluş Savaşı'nın gerçek tahlilini yapmaya her zaman için muktediriz. Biz yine çok iyi biliriz ki Türkiye Kurtuluş Savaşı'nı yapmak için Samsun'a çıkanlara İstanbul örfi idaresince ve mahkemelerince idam cezası verilmiştir. Ve yine bilmekteyiz ki, Osmanlı İmparatorluğu yüzlerce generalinden ancak birkaç tanesi Kurtuluş Savaşı'na iştirak etmiştir. Ve yine bilmekteyiz ki Kurtuluş Savaşı yapıldığı sırada İstanbul'da bulunanlar bunları yapanlara eşkıya demiştir.
1950 tarihinde Amerikan emperyalizmi iktidara geldi. Demokrat iktidar 27 Mayıs 1960'da tarihe gömüldü. Demokrat Parti gitti, bunun gitmesiyle tellaklar değişmedi. 27 Mayıs'ı kastetmiyorum, bundan sonrasını kastediyorum. Hamam aynı fakat bu defa da tellaklar değişti. Amerika bu dönemde imdada yetişip İnönü'yü düşürdü, Demirel'i iktidara getirdi.
Mustafa Kemal'e gerçekten sahip çıkanlar varsa onlar da bizleriz
Öğrenci hareketlerine gelince, Türkiye'de öğrenci olayları 50-60 senedir eksik olmamıştır. Sultan Hamit'in Tıbbiye talebelerini Sarayburnu'ndan denize attığı tarihten itibaren öğrenci hareketleri Türkiye'de devam edegelmiştir. İkinci Dünya Savaşı sırasında faşizme hayır diyen gençler ilerici gençlerdi. Ve 28 Nisan 1960 tarihinde özgürlük savaşı veren gençlerdir. Amerikan emperyalizmi tarafından İnönü hükümetten düşürüldüğünde protesto gösterisi yapan gençler ilerici gençlerdir. Anayasa'ya Bağlılık Mitingi'ni de bizler yaptık. O günün mitinginde iktidarın kiralık adamlarından ve polisinden dayak yiyen de gene bizlerdik.
1968 senesine gelince, üniversiteler öğrenciler tarafından işgal edildi. İşgalleri gayet meşru idi ve kürsü ağaları dahi bu işgallerin haklılığını hiçbir zaman inkar edemedi. Aynı yılın Temmuz ayında Amerikan Filosu'na karşı gösteri yapanlardan Vedat Demircioğlu polis tarafından hunharca öldürüldü. İktidarın kiralık kuvvetleri ve polisi hunharca devrimcilerin üzerine saldırdı. 20'ye yakın devrimci öldürüldü. Bunların hiçbirinin katili bulunamadı. Polis karakolları işkencehane haline getirildi. Hiçbir savcı buna karşı çıkmadı. Fikir özgürlüğünü ve Anayasa'yı paravan yapanlar "önceden Atatürkçü geçinirken O'nun fikir ve şahsiyetini de küçük görmeye başladılar, sadece Mustafa Kemal tarafını beğeniyorlardı." suçlamasını kesin olarak reddediyorum ve asla kabul etmiyorum. Diğer yurtseverler de bunu kabul etmez.
Gerçekler örtülmek isteniyor. Mustafa Kemal'e gerçekten sahip çıkanlar varsa onlar da bizleriz. Onun İstiklal-i tam prensibini, ve onun istiklal-i tam Türkiye idealini yalnızca biz devam ettiriyoruz.
Anayasa'yı en fazla savunan bizleriz
İddianame'de bizim Anayasa'yı cebren ilgaya teşebbüs ettiğimiz ileri sürülmektedir. Öteden beri arzetmiş olduğum gibi, bu ülkede Anayasa'yı en fazla savunanlar bizleriz. Anayasa'yı ihlal edenlerse ortadadır. Anayasa'nın uygulanmasını isteyen gene bizleriz. Anayasa'yı uygulamayan yavuz kimselerse hâlâ ortadadır. Ve yine o kişiler bizim kellemizi istemektedirler. Bile bile iddia makamı bizim Anayasa'yı ilgaya teşebbüs ettiğimizi ileri sürmektedir.
İdddia makamı bizim vermekte olduğumuz Bağımsızlık Savaşı'na karşıdır. Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Anayasası'na karşı, reformlara karşı ve bu nedenle bizim Anayasa'yı ilgaya teşebbüs ettiğimizi ileri sürmektedir. Çünkü Süleyman Demirel hâlâ ortada gezmektedir. Kudreti yetiyorsa Süleyman Demirel hakkında aynı şekilde dava açsın, onlar 36 milyonluk ülkenin bütün yükünü 20 gencin üzerine yıkmaya alışmışlardır.
Amerika sizin döneminizde ülkeye girdi ve hiçbiriniz sesinizi çıkarmadınız
Bizi bağımsız bir ülkenin çocukları olmaktan mahrum eden hepiniz dahil sizlersiniz. Çünkü Amerika sizin döneminiz sırasında Türkiye'ye girdi ve hiçbiriniz sesinizi çıkarmadınız. Ve Demokrat Parti iktidarına 10 yıl ses çıkarmadınız. Ta ki 38 yurtsever subay ses çıkarana kadar ve onları devirene kadar. Ve bugün aynı savcılar bu şahıslar hakkında da idam kararı istemektedir. Süleyman Demirel'in Anayasa'yı ihlaline ve despotizmine ve ülkeyi Amerika'ya satmasına ses çıkarılmadı.
Ve meydanlarda bunlara karşı bizler dövüşmek zorunda kaldık, bizler kurşunlandık. Ve sonunda idam isteğiyle buraya getirildik
Bizim düşmanımız
Amerikan emperyalizmi ve yerli işbirlikçileridir
Dediğim gibi Türkiye'yi bu hale getiren eski yöneticilerin bütün suçları bize yüklenmek istenmektedir. Bütün eski idarecilerin suçu bize yükletilmek istenmektedir.
Türkiye'nin bağımsızlığından başka hiçbir şey istemedik ve hayatımızı bu yola koyduk. Varlığımızı Türkiye halkına armağan ettik. Bunun aksini iddia edenler vatan hainidir. 12 Mart Muhtırası muvaffak olmasaydı bizi itham eden makam onları da aynı şekilde itham ederdi. Buna da kanaatim tamdır. 12 Mart Muhtırası Anayasa'nın uygulanmadığını iddia etmektedir ve parlamentoyu açıkça suçlamaktadır.
Biz strtaejik olarak düşüncelerimizi hiçbir zaman saklamayız. Hangi şartlar altında olursak olalım bunu açıkça söyleriz. Düşüncelerimizi mezara kadar götürürüz. Nasıl burada namluların ve dipçiklerin gölgesi altında konuşuyorsak düşüncelerimizi her zaman açıkça ifade ederiz. Bizim Anayasa'yı ilgaya teşebbüs gibi bir kastımız bulunsaydı, bunu da burada açıkça söylemekten çekinmezdik. Bizim böyle bir amacımız yoktur.
Bizim düşmanlarımız Amerikan emperyalizmi ve onun yerli işbirlikçileridir. Yani emperyalizm ile işbirliği yapan patronlar, feodal mütagallibe yani bezirgânlar, tefeciler. Toprak ağaları ve diğer işbirlikçileri ve bizim bütün eylemlerimiz bu hedefe yönelmiş bulunmaktadır. Bunun dışında başka bir hedefimiz yoktur.
Milyon metrekare vatan toprağı işgal altındayken mili bütünlüğü bozmakla suçlanıyoruz
Bizim kişi güvenliğini, mülkiyet hakkını, egemenlik ilkelerini, milli bütünlüğünü bozmak için harekete geçtiğimiz iddiaları vardır. Kişi güvenliğini ihlal edenler kimlerdir. Bunu evvela tesbit etmemiz lazım. Karakollarda işkence gören bizler olduk. Meydanlarda kurşunlanan yine bizler olduk. Bakanların emriyle hapishanelere atılan bizler olduk. Buna rağmen kişi güvenliğini bozan olmakla itham ediliyoruz. Yukarıda anlatılan asıl kişi güvenliğini bozanlar ise serbestçe meydanlarda dolaşmaktadır.
Mülkiyet hakkını ortadan kaldıracağımız iddia ediliyor. Bizatihi Anayasa mülkeyet hakkını toplum yararına kısıtlamıştır. Mutlak mülkiyet hakkı tanımamıştır. 50 köye sahip bir toprak ağasını anayasamız kabul etmemiştir. Egemenlik ilkelerine karşı çıkanlar halkın sırtından geçinenlerdir.
Ayrıca milli bütünlüğe karşı çıkmakla da suçlanıyoruz. 101 tane Amerikan üssünün bulunduğu ülkede bizim milli bütünlüğü bozmak istemekle itham edilmemiz gülünç olmaktadır. Milyon metrekare vatan toprağı işgal altındayken bizim milli bütünlüğü bozmakla suçlanmamız gülünçtür.
21 yılın hesabını 21 gençten sormak istiyorlar
Mustafa Kemal sağ olsaydı bugün çok şaşırırdı. İddianame baştan beri sırf kelle istemek maksadıyla hazırlanmıştır. Şeklen de hukuk mantığından mahrumdur. Hukuki kıymet ve değerden mahrumdur. 21 yılın hesabını 21 gençten sormak maksadıyla ve suçluların telaşı içerisinde hazırlanmış bir iddianamedir.
Ben şunu iddia ediyorum ki, hareketimiz tamamen Anayasal bir harekettir. Anayasa'nın başlangıç ilkesinde belirtilen ulusun zulme karşı direnme hakkını kullandık. Bu sebeple Anayasal bir davranışta bulunduk. Yaptıklamızın haklı olduğuna inanıyorum. Halen de bu inancı taşıyorum.
Türkiye'nin bağımsızlğından başka bir şey istemedim. Ve bu sebeple Amerikan emperyalizmine ve işbirlikçilerine karşı mücadele verdik. Bundan dolayı da ölümden korkmuyoruz. Onu ancak işbirlikçiler düşünsün. Ve ancak onlar kendi canının telaşına düşsün. Ve ben 24 yaşındayken kendimi Türkiye'nin bağımsızlığına armğan etmekten onur duyuyorum. Bu bağımsızlık düşüncesini mezara kadar götüreceğiz
The tryptic is part of an analysis of the Boroughbridge neolithic monument.
Left : the northern smaller stone of the remaining giant standing stones from the Boroughbridge neolithic monument - currently a stone row of three giant monoliths.
Centre : Cups, and lip overflows on an edge at Ilkley moor to the south east of Boroughbridge.
Right: a standing stone in a Perthshire four-poster stone circle. Cups have been ground into the top surface of the standing stone and today, small smooth crystals can be seen inside the cups. Whilst not that easy to see in the photograph, these cups are quite clear in situ and are thought to be of origin. This intreiging fourposter circle is from Carse farm aside the valley of the River Tay. Veins of white crystal are common intrusions into the rock of this valley. The Boroughbridge site is on a junction between two ancient paths that diagonal over the British Isles; the Ure river diagonal and the Fosse Way diagonal. There are old reports of the Fosse way once ending in Perthshire.
All of the remaining Boroughbridge standing stones have these deep and long canals streaming down from their tops like folds in curtains that are too important and heavy to close. The extent to which they are natural needs to be addressed. Every type of stone has its signature of erosion and every signature can be left alone or enhanced by man. Whilst the Machrie Moor standing stones have similar grooves, the question should at least be asked: might cups have been added to the tops of the standing stones as part of rites of respect for passing master knapper - like the cups of Carse farm? Might these have been given lips so that their water can be seen and 'read' by visitors gazing skywards with strained necks? The streams from each cup enhanced as the years of reflection and rite layered into attrition? Might weighted and decorated ropes have draped over the tops of the stones during times of festivity - each grinding a trench of memory as proof of existance?
The central image from Ilkley moor is very difficult to interpret. Natural errosion pits are to be expected in just such flat surface. Bronze age cups are found all over the moor. Not an easy call. When calculating natural erosion patterns, the acid rain of the industrial revolution also needs to be factored into today's fresh rain water.
The black and white photographs by David Corio of this site remain a high point in photography.

Dennis Lloyd is the alias of Nir Tibor, a heartfelt singer and frank lyricist, as well as a trumpeter and producer, with a dusky hybrid sound that organically incorporates classic soul influences. The Tel Aviv, Israel native debuted in 2015 with “Playa (Say That),” after which he spent a year based in Bangkok, Thailand, where he wrote and recorded dozens of new songs. A handful of additional singles and accompanying videos were released across 2016 and early 2017. The most successful of the bunch was “Nevermind,” a ballad quickly streamed well over a million times and added to playlists of radio stations in Lloyd’s home country. All the while, Lloyd was active as a performer in small venues and at festivals. Following a two-year gap, the singer returned in early 2019 with the EP Exident. The single, “Wild West,” appeared later that year. ~ Andy Kellman
Tiffany's outfit from the boho chic inspired shoot! My fave among them, I like this style, especially the cardigan and dress together with the shoes! And the sunglases are nice!
Hope you like it! ^^
A person trained in human osteology would notice several skeletal features of interest in this individual.
For example, the epiphysis on the distal end of the right humerus has not yet fused. In males, fusion takes place at between 15 and 18 years of age. That means our Halloween skeleton is a teen, which is about right.
Also, the 5 metacarpals in his right hand have fused together, a condition that could only occur through chronic overuse of that appendage.
His scapulae are so small as to scarcely provide any support to his shoulders. This is consistent with the slump-shouldered posture of a teen boy who spends too much time on his mobile device.

In 2020 a severe rainstorm totaled a building that housed a popular restaurant on the strip at the tourist town of Long Beach, Washington.
After standing vacant for the remainder of 2020, the building finally showed signs of life last year.
Yesterday we noticed this seasonal art on the ground-floor windows. If the quality of the restaurant is as high as the designs, Long Beach can look forward to the opening of another good dining spot.
On Saturday, November 26, NASA is scheduled to launch the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) mission featuring Curiosity, the largest and most advanced rover ever sent to the Red Planet.
The Curiosity rover bristles with multiple cameras and instruments, including Goddard's Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) instrument suite. By looking for evidence of water, carbon, and other important building blocks of life in the Martian soil and atmosphere, SAM will help discover whether Mars ever had the potential to support life. Curiosity will be delivered to Gale crater, a 96-mile-wide crater that contains a record of environmental changes in its sedimentary rock, in August 2012.

Goddard scientist Jennifer Eigenbrode injected a chemical into a rock sample and then heated the test tube to determine whether the sample-preparation method preserved the sample's molecular structure. Her testing proved successful, ultimately leading to the experiment's inclusion on the Sample Analysis at Mars instrument.

I thought someone might find this interesting. I'm currently disassembling my half-month SHIP build this year, and before I begin to take pieces apart, I broke my SHIP up into convenient sections. I find it very interesting how my reckless assembly came together, and taking it apart in reverse order gives a window into my building process.
I have added notes to each section, but the various building steps went in this order:
1) Deck
2) Spine
3) Plating
4) "Stand"
5) Repulsor Units (This area turned out not to be as complex as I desired)
6) Engines, Entrance
7) Deck inverted plating
8) Hills
9) Inner City
The stand above is in quotation marks because it hardly did its job. Of course, that's because the city was distributed across a 24-stud-wide surface entirely balanced on the (relatively weak) 4-stud-wide spine. I made this mistake about 10 days into the building process and at that point I had no easy way to fix it, so I went forward with it. The result was a disappointingly low number of photos at the end, very low mobility, and consequently no swooshability.
On the other hand, this improved over my last SHIP by simply having more to make it up. As you can see from the provided scale in the picture, the SHIP was a few feet long and about 1 foot wide, plus almost a foot tall, greatly exceeding the small size of last year's SHIP.
To anyone who finds this brief analysis interesting, thank you for reading!
... the decorator, teacher and psychologist inside me joined their forces and wrote a post analysing the beautiful style of the pictures seen above, all derived from the Ikea Family Live frlickr group
Thank you to Isis, Ana and Desiree for their contribution.
More.....actually much more here....you'll need a cup of tea in hand my dears ; )
As a final slide in my Flickr stats analysis, here are the things that I have found that drive high view counts:
Explore can drive really high counts, especially getting in the top 10.
The Flickr Blog galleries also get tons of views. I like getting in these galleries because there is a person curating the gallery. And the images follow a theme. I think these Flickr blog galleries are my favorite feature for browsing new photos. I also often post my photos in the comments section of galleries when I like the theme.
Search terms can drive views, but the only one that has gotten a really high count is World War II.
Finally, being used to illustrate blogs is always fun. I use the Common Attribution license and that makes it easy for blogs and news sites to use my photos. I have found some really interesting blogs by seeing them in my stats referral section. My most popular blog photo is the Drone and Moon photo. Drones with cameras have been very topical over the last year. Also my photo of the Crooked House on the beach gets used in environmental blogs. There have been others used along the way too.
I hope you enjoyed my Flickr analysis. This is the last of the PowerPoint slides, at least until next time. Back to the fun stuff.

This notation from page 12 of the 1998 copyrighted volume, THE COMPLETE M1 GARAND, details the analysis of machinists, industrial engineers, and photomicrographic technicians regarding this phenomenon, observed mainly in the over two million wartime rifles, intermittently.
In particular, Nicholas Gaal of Mesa showed us how this milling machine effect transpires. Interesting lesson in applied production techniques, not to mention forensic & scientific examination. He did precision mill work and machining for half a century.
The others contacted, including retired SA personnel contacted in the 80's, verified. Glenn Lilly, machinist, engineer, and process analyst, was also in the since-deleted footnotes. Van Miller worked at Springfield Armory 1939-55 or so.
The production engineering consultants agreed, and so did the surviving staff. Microscope tracking of the marks and stress photography verified.
It was not seen as a defect, and in fact, as noted in the analysis, the receivers were probably a tad stronger in that "horseshoe" area than others.
This was discussed with other machinists and production engineering/applications specialists, and surviving firearms manufacturing personnel of that place and period.
Verification and corroboration was universal. And unanimous.
All the expert testimony, of course, means nothing to Internet gods and omnipotent experts who weren't even born twenty or thirty years after this happened. They "know" stuff because they "hear it" from...whoever they hear their untest insane malarkey from.
This happened very intermittently at the very height of production. The forgings, of course, had been detail inspected, long before this eventuated. It is not a fault or void, that was established even before the instrumentation was assembled.
Interesting sub-factoid: The rifle on the right was received with a fabric strap with G.I. buckles, but the material was apparently off some other U.S. government strapping setup, and while 1 1/4", bore a stock number suggesting it was never intended for rifles. If I recall, it was for a very large duffel-style equipment cover of some type. However, it was very sturdy material, heavier than that seen on canvas straps for rifles. It was re-purposed and stitched in a non-regulation manner, that frayed end never having received the metal fitting. Eventually a crush fit "tongue" was installed, and it was given away. It was very long.
Another amusing note: Rifle #44702, the next unit left, still bore a very badly worn barrel from September of 1940 and its original butt stock, plus several other very early parts. In the research ongoing on the time, that was an interesting signal of sorts: the gas trap configuration was being dumped and reversed within a few months of manufacture. Fitted with a "replica" barrel, surmarked "RSB", correct short pinion/flush nut rear sight setup, and a few other restoratives, that old rifle, still accompanied by its old original tube separately, was passed on to a friend in federal law enforcement. No idea how or why the original replacement 1940 barrel was still mounted, as the receiver had undergone the procedures to obviate the "seventh round stoppage" issue, and the prevailing theory among the collectors who saw it was that POSSIBLY (no, not "definitely"--there is a difference!!) the change-outs would've been done simultaneously with the removal of the shorter "gas trap" barrel rig.
This might've been the "feature" shot of that shipment, in which case those T105 rear sights were on 44702 when unpacked. However, the last smatterings of detailed notes I have from the time said, "Damaged flush nut sights on rifle but not secure." I am not sure at what point I purchased the other set of flush nuts, or swapped out the parts. I handled so much material at that time it was a blur within a few weeks. Main point being, RESTORATIONS ARE EXPENSIVE and not a lot of fun.
The 'smith who did the measuring and metallurgical workups had some other fascinating observations, too, on both of these rifles. He worked on them 1938-62, and was light years ahead of any of us on the minute details. Even further ahead of the published literature!!!
However, no hard tracks of this seem to remain at the armory, apparently, and the industrial historians seem never to speak with mere "ordinary" factory workers, either vintage ones or those who have done similar operations. I did, as best I could, and a lot of times did not understand what I was being told. This made sense, generally, much later, when the student in me re-read the notes.
These things are continually attacked.
I never could figure out why, and lately, am uninterested in knowing.
Since doing the missives, and especially since 2008, I've been tossing notes and targets and the flotsam and jetsam of a half century of what, essentially, has been sadly wasted time I could've spent doing something productive. And the paperwork on this critter is part of that cleanup.
If I'd known this entire sillyassed adventure ended with throwing out half a ton of notes as late as forty years after taking them, and not generate any respect or income worth discussing, I'd have spent my time looking out the window instead.
The move in 2020 involved hauling another half ton of notes and targets to the dumpster, along with the manuscripts and synopses of books and other research that will never be published or distributed
Annoying assertions in "whacko world" are held, as Azimov so wisely remarked some forty + years ago, in esteem by some as if they were information, knowledge, logic, or analysis. How sad.
