| The
microwave cooking ovens were originally researched and
developed by the Nazis for use by the mobile support
operations for the invasion of the Soviet Union. It was
used for the preparation of meals on the mas scale. It
helped in elimenating the problem of cooking fuels and
the convenience of producing edible products in a greatly
reduced time-factor. After the close of World War II, the Allies discovered the medical research and documentation concerning these apparatuses. These documents and the experimental microwave equipment was transferred to the U. S. War Department, and classified for reference and scientific investigation. The Soviet Union also retrieved some of the devices, and proceeded to undertake experimentation on a separate basis. The Russians have been the most diligent in their research on the biological effects of microwave ovens, and have outlawed their use, and have also issued an international warning concerning the possible biological and environmental damage that can be caused by the use of this and similar-frequency electronic apparatus. |
