It was good to read your post which reminded me about why the whole thing was terribly sad for so many reasons and people still don't know about all of them. I had written about it too although from a different perspective. If you are interested in cross-linking, let me know.
I trained in an “armored” vehicle that used aluminum and was often criticized for sitting on the vehicle commander’s hatch ring rather than being lower in the vehicle because I knew what would happen inside the vehicle if it was hit (fortunately I was never deployed in that vehicle). Years later I learned how aluminum powder was used in rocket fuel (and in the coating on the Hindenburg zeppelin).
