Arsenals Historie Han havde umulige arbejdsvilkår og selv Norris måtte have indset at Knighton faktisk havde klaret sig godt — betingelserne taget i betragtning. Knightons tese var, at Henry Norris kun fyrede ham for at Arsenal selv kunne beholde de mange penge. Leslie Knighton blev fyret i Maj måned 1925. home22.inet.tele.dk /arsenal/arsenals_historie.htm

A brilliant organizer thebulletin.org Above all, Groves will be identified with his central role in creating the bomb, and Norris has written what will likely stand as the defining, if not definitive, narrative of that tale, contributing an essential volume to the growing collection of major studies of key actors in the birth of the nuclear age. Robert S. "Stan" Norris, a veteran analyst of nuclear affairs for the Natural Resources Defense Council, decided to pick up the challenge of assessing this crucial figure in the creation and early history of the atomic bomb. Then Groves tends to recede from the conventional narrative, except for occasional run-ins with uppity characters like Leo Szilard or periodic exhortations to Oppie, before resurfacing in the summer of 1945, when he pressed unsuccessfully (he was overruled by Stimson) for the inclusion of Kyoto on the target list. www.thebulletin.org /article.php?art_ofn=mj02hershberg   (1543 words)

Mahncke review Robert Norris, research associate with the Natural Resources Defense Council and scholar of nuclear issues, has written a long-overdue biography of General Groves. While the central theme of this work is Groves’s leadership of the Manhattan Project, Norris does a thorough job of integrating into the story his formative years, family, Army career prior to the project, and postwar role in establishing a national policy for atomic weapons. Groves, who had had a distinguished career as an Army engineer and had been the overseer of the building of the Pentagon, was selected to head the Manhattan Project in August 1942. www.nwc.navy.mil /press/review/2003/Winter/br9-w03.htm   (873 words)

GROVES was a career officer in the Army Corps of Engineers, fresh from overseeing hundreds of military construction projects, including the Pentagon, when he was given the job in September 1942 of building the atomic bomb.

Norris has rewritten the history of the most important event of World War II and in so doing has given us the best account yet of the military colossus that built America s first nuclear bombs. www.addall.com /detail/1586420674.html   (322 words)

Amazon.com: Racing for the Bomb : General Leslie R. Groves, the Manhattan Project's Indispensable Man: Books: Robert S. Norris Leslie R. Groves entered West Point on the eve of World War I. When the United States entered the war, the Academy's curriculum was compressed into a two year matriculation in the belief that many new officers would be needed quickly on the European front. Leslie Groves is that administrator, the take-charge guy who knew how to inspire, find competent people to whom he delegated tasks, cajole and bully his way into the historical achievement of the first working atomic bomb. Groves protected the stockpile, and since the weapons were stored as component parts, Groves could obfuscate the true strategic strength of the American arsenal as political needs dictated. www.amazon.com /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1586420674?v=glance   (2815 words)

blueandwhitearmy.net - Story Allegedly, Leslie Knighton the Arsenal manager (and latterly, to our shame, our manager) in 1924 admitted to giving the Arsenal player performance enhancing drugs in their FA Cup run.
