Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons With each mile the going seemed to get better, until he finally swung up the periscope and opened the window armor. Deathworld The waters about Great Britain are now patrolled by hundreds of small, fast craft—destroyers, trawlers, motor boats—always on the lookout for a periscope or other indication of the proximity of a submarine. The Story of the Great War, Volume I (of 8) Introductions; Special Articles; Causes of War; Diplomatic and State Papers When we saw her clearly through the periscope after a while, we found out the discouraging fact that she was a hospital ship. The Adventures of the U-202 An Actual Narrative In certain other places were set up improvised periscopes, so that an officer could look “over the top,” and, by a series of reflecting mirrors, observe what was going on in the enemy’s country. Ned, Bob and Jerry on the Firing Line The Motor Boys Fighting for Uncle Sam Around the top of the turret was a circle of bulls' eyes and I was conscious of the water dashing against them while the spray washed over the glass of the periscope. Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons Krannon had his face buried in the periscope mask and silently fought the controls. Deathworld As I lost sight of the periscope, I rang down to stop and reverse both engines, at the same time ordering our helm hard a-port. Under the Ensign of the Rising Sun A Story of the Russo-Japanese War The top of the periscope would soon be thrust above the surface. The Adventures of the U-202 An Actual Narrative Ned took his chums by the arms, and led them a little way down the trench where there was an improvised periscope. Ned, Bob and Jerry on the Firing Line The Motor Boys Fighting for Uncle Sam The periscope also was covered and we were completely beneath the surface. Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons "As I came down the report from the periscope showed a clear sea, and we are now about to resume surface travel and repair one of the periscopes." The Boy Volunteers with the Submarine Fleet I knew in an instant what it was, for I had seen submarines before, and at once recognised the slender object forging through the water out yonder as the upper portion of a submarine’s periscope. Under the Ensign of the Rising Sun A Story of the Russo-Japanese War My hands clasped the handle with which the well-oiled, and therefore easily movable, periscope can be turned around as quickly as lightning, in order to take a sweep around the horizon. The Adventures of the U-202 An Actual Narrative Still, it’s the best crew I ever had: young fellows off warships and transports, looking for comfortable berths and a little adventure that won’t entail hunting periscopes.” The Pagan Madonna I had tried that hunt for the tiny wave of a periscope. Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons It must come to the surface sufficiently near to bring its periscope out of the water, and that would reveal its presence to us. The Boy Volunteers with the Submarine Fleet Suddenly, as I watched the periscope every moment becoming more distinct, I noticed that the ripple of foam about it was steadily lessening, and presently it disappeared altogether. Under the Ensign of the Rising Sun A Story of the Russo-Japanese War At the same time, I decided to rise so as to get a better observation through the periscope and once more look around the horizon. The Adventures of the U-202 An Actual Narrative I'm an airship commander cruising round over the submarine, and she doesn't dare to show so much as the tip of her periscope. Captain Jim In the beginning periscopes were rather crude appliances. Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons "Well, there is one less periscope, if I know anything," replied the navigating officer. The Boy Volunteers with the Submarine Fleet I crashed the telegraph handles over to “Full speed ahead!” on both engines, and never moving my eyes for an instant from the periscope, directed the helmsman to steer straight for it. Under the Ensign of the Rising Sun A Story of the Russo-Japanese War Occasionally I stuck up my periscope and perceived how the surrounding circle was knit tighter and tighter. The Adventures of the U-202 An Actual Narrative "Now, you rotter, I've got to get you set!" he muttered, bending down and peering into the periscope with his rifle gripped tightly in his hands. With Haig on the Somme Modern periscopes are complicated optical instruments which have been developed to a very high point of efficiency. Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons Because the safety of the ship now depends on the ability of the observers to report the moment a periscope appears in sight. The Boy Volunteers with the Submarine Fleet This is a combination of the periscope and rifle by means of which a soldier can aim and fire his piece at an object without exposing himself above the parapet. Manual of Military Training Second, Revised Edition Then I arose to a periscope distance from the surface and took a look around to see how things were going. The Adventures of the U-202 An Actual Narrative It seemed odd to plunge suddenly into an atmosphere of merriment within a few yards of the men posted at the periscopes along the sandbagged parapet. With Haig on the Somme Formerly a shot which cut off the periscope near the water's edge might sink the boat. Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons In the distance nothing was visible but the conning tower and the two periscope tubes, but that was enough. The Boy Volunteers with the Submarine Fleet By raising the top of the periscope above the parapet the soldier can watch the foreground while at the same time remaining completely concealed himself. Manual of Military Training Second, Revised Edition I called Gröning to the periscope, so that he could be sure I made no mistake. The Adventures of the U-202 An Actual Narrative "A periscope, sir!" shouted half a dozen voices. The Submarine Hunters A Story of the Naval Patrol Work in the Great War There is, indeed, a great difference between the submarine boats of the early twentieth century which had to rely on their conning-tower for steering, and more recent boats with their wonderful periscopes and gyro compasses. Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons From an unexpected quarter the third submarine's periscope was visible, and a foamy trail, straight as a mark, began to lengthen out toward their vessel. The Boy Volunteers with the Submarine Fleet A more elaborate periscope for the control of artillery fire has a collapsible tube which may be extended and elevated to a height of 75 feet. Manual of Military Training Second, Revised Edition “Such a crowd!” exclaimed Gröning, and stepped back from the periscope. The Adventures of the U-202 An Actual Narrative Here was the bowl of a supplementary periscope, so that a vision of what was taking place could be obtained without going into the conning-tower. The Submarine Hunters A Story of the Naval Patrol Work in the Great War But even the highly developed periscope of to-day, usually called "panoramic periscope," has its limitations. Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons Four men were engaged in taking down a bent and partially ruptured periscope tube. The Boy Volunteers with the Submarine Fleet Then the commander had the periscope raised, and on the distant horizon I made out the destroyer—a tiny thing even in the glass of the magnifying lens of the under-sea boat's "eye." Some Naval Yarns I was standing at the periscope and observed the wrath of the elements. The Adventures of the U-202 An Actual Narrative The periscope's bowl showed nothing but an expanse of sea and sky, and the two boats rising buoyantly to the waves. The Submarine Hunters A Story of the Naval Patrol Work in the Great War At night, of course, the periscope is practically useless. Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons It was the tall periscope that received the shot, which struck it about four feet from the top. The Boy Volunteers with the Submarine Fleet The captain turns the periscope around, scanning the waters. Some Naval Yarns The tinkle of broken glass sliding down the bamboo tube told that the periscope was a wreck. Panther Eye The two periscopes were "housed", but two slender "wireless" masts gave the boat the appearance of a swift torpedo craft. The Submarine Hunters A Story of the Naval Patrol Work in the Great War Important as the periscope is both as a means of observing the surroundings of the submarine and as a guide in steering it, it is not the only means of accomplishing the latter purpose. Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons A camouflaged vessel is visible to the naked eye, almost as plain as one that has not been daubed with paint, but it is through the mirrors of a periscope that the camouflage is effective. In the Flash Ranging Service Observations of an American Soldier During His Service With the A.E.F. in France "Lower foremost periscope into the well," ordered the captain. Some Naval Yarns Lieutenant Ware's order of 'train on the starboard quarter and report when you bear on a submarine's periscope' was answered almost immediately by the after gun's crew, who were then ordered to commence firing. World's War Events, Vol. II Instantly an arrangement of telescopic lenses came into play within the tube of the periscope, with the result that a small portion of the view was greatly magnified upon the object card. The Submarine Hunters A Story of the Naval Patrol Work in the Great War For underwater vision, an optical tube and a periscope had been provided. Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons In reflecting the picture on the horizon, the mirrors lose some of the rays of light, so officers explained to me, hence the eyes of the periscope are unable to detect the camouflage. In the Flash Ranging Service Observations of an American Soldier During His Service With the A.E.F. in France This periscope was not in use and had not been above the surface. Some Naval Yarns The periscope was first sighted broad on the port bow, distant about one-half mile, by Chief Officer Blau in charge of the bridge watch at the time. World's War Events, Vol. II By an ingenious arrangement, the lenses were constructed to compensate for any deviation of the tube of the periscope from the vertical. The Submarine Hunters A Story of the Naval Patrol Work in the Great War No periscopes had been provided because none of the instruments available at that time gave satisfaction. Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons It was a common thing to see a man go to hospital with his face badly lacerated by periscope glass. World's War Events, Vol. I We were there, and one could imagine the tiny periscope just above the water. Some Naval Yarns The Second-in-Command hung about the elbow of the motionless figure at the periscope like a morbid-minded urchin on the outskirts of a crowd that gathers round a street accident, but can see nothing. The Long Trick She was submerged, steering a compass course, but frequently showing her periscope to ascertain her whereabouts. The Submarine Hunters A Story of the Naval Patrol Work in the Great War But, just as almost every feature of submarine construction was gradually developed and most every technical obstacle overcome, experts gradually concentrated their efforts on the improvement of periscopes. Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons In the daytime, by using a periscope, an arrangement of double mirrors, a sentry can keep his head below the parapet while he watches the ground in front. World's War Events, Vol. I It was not visible from the periscope, which a second after the signal to fire had been brought down under the surface. Some Naval Yarns The Oberleutnant made no answer, but reached out a hand to the wheel that adjusted the height of the periscope above the water and twisted it rapidly. The Long Trick At that moment the Unter-leutnant, who happened to be at the conning-tower periscope, reported that a large vessel was bearing down towards them. The Submarine Hunters A Story of the Naval Patrol Work in the Great War No ray of light reached us any longer from without, the periscope was submerged long ago and the steel safety covers over the windows were closed. Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons Scarcely had the bow of the sailing vessel been passed ere the submarine was so far beneath the water as to show only the periscope. Boy Scouts in the North Sea The Mystery of a Sub But be that as it may, there is no enemy periscope that is going to pass unobserved at a certain distance by this hawk-eyed, wind-seared man. Some Naval Yarns For twenty minutes he remained thus, motionless save for the arm that controlled the periscope. The Long Trick He led the way to the compartment in which the bowl of the supplementary periscope was placed. The Submarine Hunters A Story of the Naval Patrol Work in the Great War I was just able to catch hold of the ocular or eye-piece of the periscope. Aircraft and Submarines The Story of the Invention, Development, and Present-Day Uses of War's Newest Weapons Cautiously creeping nearer the surface, the lads put the periscope into action. Boy Scouts in the North Sea The Mystery of a Sub "Tube ready?" asked the commander, his head hidden between the black flaps of the periscope. Some Naval Yarns "Ludwig," he said, "to the periscope with you and tell me what you see." The Long Trick Not so much as the periscope of a hostile submarine had been sighted. The Submarine Hunters A Story of the Naval Patrol Work in the Great War Once or twice there came the smashing tinkle of glass as a periscope was struck and a vexed officer, still holding it, passed it to a rifleman to be laid aside. Barbarians Curiously the others crowded about the object glass of the periscope. Boy Scouts in the North Sea The Mystery of a Sub Enough that daylight is here and the sun is shining, that periscopes and sleep are once more permitted, that breakfast is at hand, and that some day we shall get back to billets. Mud and Khaki Sketches from Flanders and France I'm going to get amongst it and go down with the tide, keeping the periscope hidden: it's an old dodge. The Long Trick Two thick poles passing vertically through them, and weighted at the lowermost ends to give the necessary stability, served as periscopes. The Submarine Hunters A Story of the Naval Patrol Work in the Great War "There you are now—a brand new periscope." The Kangaroo Marines He usually sat on a bag full of earth, placed on the firestep, and by means of a periscope, watched for any movement of the enemy. The 28th: A Record of War Service in the Australian Imperial Force, 1915-19, Vol. I Egypt, Gallipoli, Lemnos Island, Sinai Peninsula Just beyond them Lieutenant Davis stood at an advanced lookout post intent on studying the outside situation by means of his periscope. The Flag The Lieutenant moved obediently to his side and applied his eye to the periscope. The Long Trick Above the green sides appeared what was undoubtedly the conning-tower and housed periscope of a submarine. The Submarine Hunters A Story of the Naval Patrol Work in the Great War The result of this discovery was that every officer's stick was immediately commandeered, and with the aid of Claud's ring and other people's mirrors, a good supply of periscopes were made. The Kangaroo Marines When the line was "quiet" the men were enabled to examine the enemy's positions with the aid of periscopes. The 28th: A Record of War Service in the Australian Imperial Force, 1915-19, Vol. I Egypt, Gallipoli, Lemnos Island, Sinai Peninsula The officer of No. 2 Platoon hitched himself higher on the parapet and hoisted a periscope over it. Between the Lines The motionless figure at the periscope gave a couple of low-voiced orders, and in the ensuing silence Sir William felt the artery in his throat quicken and beat like a piston.
