General Patton "(U.S. Army). General Patton had a complete willow tree flown to Morocco so that a dowser could use branches from it to find water to replace the wells the German Army had blown up. The British army used dowsers on the Falkland Island to remove mines."

"General Patten had two young men from Tennessee transferred to his unit. It is said that an Army moves on it's belly, I suggest that it and it's machines need water as well. Without these water wells we would have lost our butts on that front."

Hanna Kroeger - "...for years Cal-Tech was teaching the use of the pendulum to especially bright and interested graduate students. ...So let's join the smart and intelligent crowd and use the pendulum."

Louis Matachia - "...in the late 1960's, a dowser named Louis Matachia did demonstrate dowsing at Quantico, on a mock-up of a Vietnamese village. However, I don't believe he ever "trained" the Marines in dowsing, or that dowsing was ever officially sanctioned by any service."

"The New York Times reported that the U.S. Marine Corps used dowsing in Vietnam (Baldwin, 1967)"
http://www.tricksterbook.com/ArticlesOnline/Dowsing.htm

"During the Viet Nam conflict ( War for lack of a better term) We used dowsers to locate enemy tunnel systems and weapons cache's. Here our military brought in teams of dowsers, not to simply locate these materials, but to teach the skill to others. Then came the job nobody wanted, the "Tunnel Rat". The poor ******* that armed with a side arm and a satchel charge of c-4; would enter these underground labyrinths to seek and destroy. Not a bad job till you find out that most had to be done by complete darkness in the tunnel in case there was a guard on duty. If that weren't bad enough, our little buddies sometimes left behind a few small pit vipers. Yes no one except for the few volunteered for this job!"

They sell it on E-Bay but look at the web site and talk to them via e-mail was the way I went…

There are a lot of pre 1940 studies that were done in Germany, France and England before the war. Then it seems like most of the scientist disappeared...Art
