Studies Made by Human Research Unit Nr. 1 During Project STALK. III. Selection and Training of Stereoscopic Range Finder Operators
Abstract
Sixty tank crew gunners or tank commanders were selected and trained in the operation of the stereoscopic range finder. Each operator made 4200 practice rangings during the course and proficiency tests were administered periodically. Results indicate that one-third of the men reached their peak early in training; that the average man ceased to improve by about 600 readings; that by 1200 rangings, over 70 percent reached their maximum; and that independent of the extent of training, many men will not be able to qualify as operators of the stereoscopic range finder.
