Abstract
SINCE the appearance on June 22 of a leading article entitled “Camouflage in Modern Warfare” in NATURE, the War has entered upon a new phase, in which the enemy has repeatedly sent large formations of bombers in search of targets over Great Britain. Now more than ever before in our history has camouflage become a matter of national importance. Prof. Merton complains that the above article presented “a gloomy and even alarming picture of the inefficiency of the departments in Great Britain responsible for camouflage”. Complacency and mutual congratulation will not help to remedy matters in these stirring times.
