Hearing of this competition, and of a fatal accident on a beach in nearby Arbroath where a Polish Army patrol was killed by a landmine, Kosacki set out to design such a detector. Kosacki used his previous experience designing a device capable of detecting unexploded ordnance to help him in his challenge. He and his assistant produced prototypes, which they tested on West Sands. Only 3 months after he started, Kosacki’s design was submitted to the British Army for consideration. The design weighed only 14kg and was operated by a single person; it triumphed in the competition, beating six other British designs. The device was used extensively throughout the rest of the war and saved countless lives. <p>If you want to learn more about Józef Kosacki, visit <a href="https://www.curious-sta.org/jozef-kosacki/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a>.</p> 1909 amm60 Site 352 current,56.345253765742825,-2.8050810098648076; 1990 true 421 PIN8 TEXT Notice: Undefined variable: file in /var/www/standscience/omeka/plugins/MetsExport/helpers/MetsExporter.php on line 1122
