"Sheridan Tropical Trials in Australia," by Paul Handel. (The Australian army did not accept the M551, mostly because the breech scavenging system did not completely remove debris after firing a round, and this threatened to exploded stored ammunition.)
"Paratroopers of the Independent State of Croatia," by Josip Novak and David Spencer. (History, equipment, and operations; World War II.)
"Prototypes: The BTR-90; The Dead are Very Much Alive," by Andrei Akensov. (Unique report and photos of a not-yet-in-production Russian vehicle. This kind of coverage would have been impossible in the Cold War.)
"Wanted: A Friend to Restore Me; The Bovington PzKw. VI Tiger Today," by Stephen Sewell. (Captured in Tunisia in 1943, on display in Britain since the war, needs to be preserved like the Aberdeen Tiger.)
"Late War U.S. Engineer Equipment on Halftracks," by Matthew Amye. (Pioneer tool kits.)
Book reviews include _California's Railway Guns; With Their Home at Fort MacArthur_, by Charles Small.
