Armor defense research under Maj Dean during World War I
Maj Dean led an armor workshop from late 1917 to early 1918 reporting to Pershing and the ordnance department. The museum produced over 25 armor defense types in experimental sets, including jet shields and other devices derived from hospital casualty data. A National Defense Council committee including Welch Litchfield Monneil and Mackay oversaw metal improvements, with Prof. Henry A. Howe studying helmet metal to boost protection.
