Subject: Sighting: Slide rule in a PC game - JPG File for view
I sighted no less the three (count 'em) slide rules in Electronic
Arts' new PC action game, "Medal of Honor."

The game is a first-person shooter set in World War 2 European
Theatre. The slide rules are part of the details found in a secret (&
fictional) German U-Boat research facility.

I captured & cropped the screen shot & you can view this "cyber
version" of a slide rule in the "Files" section (filename: pc game
slide rule.jpg).

Doubtless the artist modeled this slide rule from a real subject. Can
anyone care to make a guess what make & model slide rule this is
supposed to be? This jpg is at the best resolution my machine could
handle.

have fun. bye.
