Design and Development of Natural Hand Gloves,
Abstract
From the standpoint of military hardwear, however, this matter of the man's being able to perform his assigned tasks with dexterity and absence of fatigue, is our primary consideration. Soldiers are sent to the battlefield not to demonstrate durability on their clothing items, or the low cost of the items, any more than to show off the appearance of their items of clothing. They are there to perform certain tasks and the efficiency with which they perform these tasks will determine whether they or their opponents win, and more important, whether our nation may be able to survive. Hence, the handwear of the soldier, which determines the degree of skill with which he can perform many of his most critical battlefield tasks, constitutes one of the most important areas for research and developments to increase the efficiency of the combat soldier.
