  1. I guess the modern US insistence to "own the night" stems from this experience in WW II

  2. Interesting. Btw wouldnt the observer risk beeing blinded by a random flash of light (lets sas a searchlight) at least temporary?

  3.  @glennledrew8347  i've just heard that the Leo I tank had an automatic to close up the optics whenever the gun fired (to prevent blinding) but i never learned why exactly. Thanks for sheding some light on the subject. PS: since i've tried a bit of hobby astronomie myself, just in case you want to switch from the binoculars to an telescope, the mounting for it is actualy the most important part (since you have to adjust for the rotation of earth) and unfortunately many hobby telescopes cant do this. So research can save you a lot of frustration.
