Please expand this article if you can - it was written from an English perspective and maybe lacks that touch of Americanism that this very American company needs.

In 1950 Machett Laboratories contracted with the Industrial Mobilization Division of the Signal Corp Supply Agency to provide the high power high voltage rectifier tubes used in the Hydrogen Thyratron Test sets. Voltages as high as 30,000 were involved. This was a hghly important National Defense program which carried the "Brickbat" priority designation.
