           test  many  of  the  ideas  in  the  patents.  180  Military  spokesmen  deny  that  they  are
           using  any  of  the  Eastlund  ideas;  however,  careful  review  of  the  materials  lead  to  the
           inescapable  conclusion  that  the  military  is  misleading  the  public  again.  Moreover,  it
           was reported by Dr. Eastlund in a National Public Radio broadcast in 1988181 that the
           military  had  tested  some  of  the  ideas  in  the  patents  before  removing  the  secrecy
           orders. In a more recent interview, this fact was again confirmed by Dr. Eastlund. 182
           A  review  of  the  other  nine  patents  originally  held  by  APTI,  when  overlain  on  the
           military  planning  documents,  leaves  researchers  with  an  understanding  of  this  new
           weapon   system   experiment   -   clearly   countering   the   military's   public
           pronouncements.

                  Going  back  to  1984,  the  United  States  Air  Force's  Major  Norman  H.
           Ruotanen,  wrote  a  paper  which  became  a  chapter  in  a  most  interesting  publication.
           "Nuclear  and  Electromagnetic  Warfare  in  Low-Intensity  Conflict".  The  chapter
           considered  the  use  of  nuclear  weapons  for  creating  electromagnetic  pulses  (EMP)  in
           order to disable electronic systems of adversaries. The Major went on to discuss a less
           intrusive method and perhaps a method which could be better controlled. He describes
           the system:

                  "Nuclear  EMP  devices  are  not  the  only  way  to  create  damaging
           electromagnetic  pulses.  Electrical  power  supply,  power  conditioning,  and  microwave
           source  device  technologies  have  advanced  to  the  point  where  one  could  feasibly
           generate  electromagnetic pulses  in the radio frequency regime by conventional means
           that are powerful enough to disrupt, damage, or destroy systems utilizing the highly
           susceptible electrical components. "183

                  "A  conventional  EMP  weapon  would  somewhat  resemble  a  very  powerful
           radar system. It could be deployed on a space platform, in an aircraft, or on a truck or
           ship. Unlike the nuclear EMP devices that illuminate large areas with damaging EMP,
           the  conventional  system  would  be  used  against  specific  point  targets.  At  long  ranges,
           the  EMP  could  disrupt  or  upset  target  electrical  systems.  At  closer  ranges,  electrical
           components  in  the  target  would  be  burned  out  and  permanently  damaged.  Both
           aggressor and the defender in the low-intensity conflict would have many uses for such
           conventional  EMP  weapons.  This  type  of  electromagnetic  warfare  is  quite  bloodless
           and,   therefore,   quite   appealing   when   international   opinions   are
           considered...Although  this  electromagnetic  warfare  is  a  relatively  benign  form  of
           combat  that  generally  kills  systems,  not  people,  some  antipersonnel  applications  are
           currently being considered, such as the use of the very powerful microwave devices to
           confuse,  disable,  or  even  kill  the  enemy.  The  use  of  these  advancing  technologies  for
           intelligence   gathering,   disinformation,   and   enemy   interrogation   is   even
           speculated.. "184
