-Caveat Lector- June 30 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Laser attack on Canadians By G.F. Bain Washington, D.C. On May 20 I posted a note "Russian Lasers and Questions Unasked". The Pentagon has now issued a "final" report on the incident - as follows (Washington Post 6/27): "The Pentagon disclosed last month that it believed the Russian ship Kapitan Man fired a laser at a Canadian military helicopter on April 4, causing temporary eye damage to the pilot and an American officer on board...two medical examinations of the officer, Lt. Jack Daly, concluded that his injury was consistent with damage that would be expected from exposure to a low powered laser.. 'There is no evidence, however, to pinpoint the source of the laser'..'Specifically the investigation could not link the officer's eye injury to a laser on the Kapitan Man or to any other location." "You have to describe this as a mystery", said Pentagon spokesman Kenneth Bacon. This is dissimulation of the highest order inasmuch as the injury was sustained during an overflight of the ship, which was monitoring the departure of a U.S. nuclear sub from Bremmerton, and no other ships were in the area. The photos of the incident have NOT been released. The incident occurred during the U.S./Russian negotiations about NATO expansion and were, in my view, deliberately played down by U.S. and Canadian authorities to avoid embarrassment to those negotiations. I received a communication from a Vancouver maritime lawyer denying the incident. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Ted Campbell Look West, Young Man, and Woman G.F.
