Searchlights and Signal Lights
Excerpt from Searchlights and Signal Lights: For the Instruction of Officers and Personnel Connected With Searchlights The first use of any light projector which could be called a searchlight in any sense of the word was on board a Union warship blockading a southern port during the Civil War. On a dark night a Confederate ship attempted to run the blockade, thinking herself secure against detection on account of the blackness of the night. Suspicion, however, was aroused on board the Union ship and the first searchlight used at sea was brought into use.

Luftwaffe Search Lights and Range Finding Equipment
This new photo album is number 31 in the MMPBooks/Stratus "Camera On" series and is the first to cover such equipment as Luftwaffe search lights and range finding equipment, of which the book contains 140+ photographs. The majority of the photos are from private collections taken by ordinary German soldiers, not professional propagandists. In this volume, we endeavor to show this rarely illustrated equipment in some detail but still show it as the soldiers viewed it as both their work place and also their home, not the highly posed and polished views of the official photographers. This book is an invaluable reference for military historians and modelers alike.
