Scope and content

SZ does not think that Graff's notes on blast stupor raise any issue which need concern the sub-committee. SZ is currently working on blast concussion and reports that results so far indicate that direct head effects from blast are only likely at such high pressures that more severe, and possibly fatal, injuries would occur.

Heavily annotated on verso.
