[edit] S-Branch
The Oxford Dictionary of National Biography article on G.L.S. Shackle refers to Lindemann's wartime economics and statistics unit as "S-Branch". I was contemplating an article under that title but it does not seem to be a very widespread usage. What do people think? Cutler 11:15, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Koennen wir haben something on his involvement in the negotiations surrounding the Morgenthau Plan? 86.136.88.187 01:47, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Controls of spinning aircraft
IIRC, Lindemann theory to get out of a spin required the aircraft controls to be operated in the reverse direction that the pilot might otherwise suppose, counter-intuitively. Is this correct?
[edit] Significance of 'dehousing paper'
"[The 'dehousing paper'] became the genesis of the assault on German civilian morale by area bombardment."
I have flagged this as a missing citation. Blake says in ODNB "But it seems unlikely that his famous minute in 1942 to Churchill on this theme was the determining factor in a decision which had its roots far back in recommendations of the chiefs of staff in 1940."
