  • Series: UAV 859.295.1 Internal memoranda (various subjects), 1941-1945 32 boxes
    Scope and Content: Contains the internal memoranda of the Harvard Underwater Sound Laboratory (HUSL) regarding various aspects of the Laboratory's activities. The memoranda were issued mostly by individual members of the administrative and research staff to other members of the organization. The copies in this series were sent to the central files of the HUSL.

    Topics include the HUSL's research activities, scope of the projects involved, assignments of scientific personnel to projects, policy and relations with other laboratories, design and construction, testing and installation of equipment and devices, operations, schedules and daily log of HUSL's activities on Navy vessels, training activities and security issues. Research topics include Bearing Deviation Indicators (BDI), Sonar, transducers, torpedoes, and anti-submarine research.

    Documents include internal technical memoranda by project numbers, photographs and drawings of devices, and departmental reports that include abstracts and comments, minutes of weekly meetings, and preparation of manuals. Notebooks, memoranda, and reports from the Library and Editorial Office are also included.
