This report distills from available data descriptions of typical human symptoms in reaction to prompt ionizing radiation in the dose range 75 to 4500 rads (cGy) free-in-air. The descriptions correlated symptoms which dose and time over the acute postexposure period of six weeks. their purpose is to provide an empirical base for estimating combat troop performance after a nuclear weapon attack. We divide the dose range of interest into eight subranges associated with important pathophysiological events. For each subrange, we estimate the signs and symptoms manifested by an exposed population--symptom onset, severity, duration, and incidence. The early or prodromial phase of radiation sickness begins about 2 to 4 hours after doses of 300 to 530 rads (cGy). Onset time diminishes with dose, occurring within minutes of exposure to 4500 rods (cGy) . Characteristic prodromal symptoms are nausea, vomiting, anorexia, and diarrhea. The prodromal phase lasts from several days to a matter of hours, depending on the dose. Despite differences of population characteristics, environmental conditions, and medical attention between the exposed persons represented by our data and by battlefield soldiers, we believe these symptom descriptions are relevant to combat personnel. This work was sponsored by the Defense Nuclear Agency. More

Robert Heron Bork (March 1, 1927 – December 19, 2012) was an American judge, government official and legal scholar who served as the Solicitor General of the United States from 1973 to 1977. He served as a judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit from 1982 to 1988. Reagan nominated Bork to the Supreme Court in 1987, precipitating a contested Senate debate. Opposition to Bork centered on his stated desire to roll back the civil rights decisions of the Warren and Burger courts and his role in the Saturday Night Massacre. His nomination was defeated in the Senate, with 58 of the 100 Senators opposing his nomination. Bork traces the expansion of liberalism that occurred during the 1960s, arguing that this legacy of radicalism demonstrates that the precepts of liberalism are antithetical to the rest of the U.S. political tradition. He then attacks a variety of social, cultural, and political experiences as evidence of U.S. cultural decline and degeneracy. Among these are affirmative action, violence in and sexualization of mass media, the legalization of abortion, pressure to legalize euthanasia, feminism and the decline of religion. Bork argues that the judiciary and judicial activism are catalysts for U.S. cultural corruption. More
