The first American-mode guided missile, first put on public display, at Huntsville, home of the world's largest rocket and guided missile research and development center, Redstone Arsenal. In the letter, Croxton discusses an agreement made between the University of Alabama and Redstone Scientific Information Center (RSIC) to share library services and materials, including journal subscriptions, messenger service, and access to the RSIC facility. In the letter, McCanless requests the transfer of scientific and engineering journals from Redstone to support research and teaching at the University. A list of the journals is enclosed. In this letter, Nickerson thanks Gen. Pickering for his support and explains why he believes the Army is the best service branch to develop ballistic missiles. He also discusses the need for missiles in case of war with the Soviet Union. Nickerson was a staff officer at the Army Ballistic Missile Agency at Redstone Arsenal assigned to work on the Jupiter, the United States' first mid-range ballistic missile. He was arrested and court martialed for espionage in 1957 after releasing sensitive documents about the United States missile program to the press. At the time, Secretary of Defense Charles E. Wilson granted the Air Force sole authority to develop intermediate range ballistic missile systems. Nickerson disagreed with this policy, and in response, leaked documents that demonstrated the superiority of Army missiles compared to those developed by the Air Force. He eventually pled guilty to lesser charges and was suspended from the Army for one year and was fined $1,500. Dr. Wernher von Braun was among those who testified on Nickerson's behalf. Karl Heimburg is seen second from right. The Alabama chapter of the American Society of Civil Engineers awarded landmark status to the Redstone Test Stand in 1979.

The document outlines costs associated with laboratories and graduate coursework in math, physics, mechanical engineering, and electrical engineering. The flier discusses coordination of library services between the UAH Library, the Research Institute, and Redstone Scientific Information Center. The report outlines highlights of the Armed Forces Day, including attendance, media, and the parade lineup. The theme of the day was "Power for Peace." The report includes news clippings, a Redstone Arsenal welcome brochure, and photographs of the festivities in downtown Huntsville and at Redstone Arsenal. The sign in front of the missile reads, "Hermes Guided Missile, U.S. Army Ordnance, Redstone Arsenal, Huntsville, Ala."
