Army Makes Big Waves
WASHINGTON (M)-The Army
announced yesterday it has built
the biggest wave-making machine
in the world, able to produce a
hurricane-like breaker.
The product of the Beach Ero-
sion Board, a unit of the Army
Engineer Corps, "will aid in de-
vising possible methods of pro-
tecting coastal areas from hurri-
cane damage," the Army said.
"The new facility will permit
large tests of wave forces and
wave effects, including those of
hurricane proportions," the Army
added.
The machine, mounted in a
concrete tank 635 feet long, 15
feet wide and 20 feet deep, can
build a wave up to seven feet.
