the huge field was not only charged
with mines. but had also become a
mass OF sensitive feelers 10 explode

contact with an antennae the mine

OF the antennae would explode.
The problem has been 10 explode
the mines far enough away from

explosion OF a mine at a safe dis
lance causing another close TO the

being destroyed by this method.
Aside from the danger and tedi-
