EDITORS COMMENTS
"Step into the future and witness the astonishing prediction of warfare in 2032, as depicted in The Modern Boy magazine in 1932. In this futuristic vision, invading troops launch an attack not through traditional methods, but via a high-speed shell. The innovative design of these shells includes protective bumpers to cushion the impact of landing, ensuring the soldiers inside remain upright despite the shell's twists and turns through the atmosphere. The men inside these spherical tanks are strapped up for safety, shielded from the extreme heat generated by the shell's velocity. However, to prevent them from overheating like a pan of sizzling bacon, they are advised to carry ice-cream along for the ride! This impression of future warfare may seem far-fetched, but it was a fascinating prediction of what combat might look like in the 21st century. We certainly all ought to be glad that this is only a forecast - at present." Date: 1932.
