The "dry guillotine"
extracted text (Extract Text)
THE DRY GUILLOTINE" does the opposite of
making a soldier lose his head. It teaches him
to keep it, and to hold it low when crawling into
enemy territory under fire. Known as an infiltra-
tion trainer, the device has numbered vertical
pegs that swing to a horizontal position when
touched by a soldier who does not hug the ground
closely enough. The trainee’s score is computed
by adding the numbers on the pegs he has tilted
while crawling under the “bullets.” A motto on
the wicked-looking gadget gives this grim advice:
“The higher your score, the deader you are.”
