Laboratory and field experimentation, based to a large extent on the experiences of Arctic explorers, has been conducted by the army quartermaster corps and the results have indicated that cotton, as well as fur, wool and leather, is an essential material for use in coldweather clothing. One of the most efficient Arctic garb is a combination of a wind-resistant material and an insulator to preserve body heat, the research indicates. Cotton twill fabrics, made of a combed ..yarn, have proven effective as body insulators and types of cotton twill have demonstrated a high degree of wind-and-water repellency when suitable treated in manufacture. When worn with additional heatholding garments, the jackets and parkas fabricated of cotton have provided excellent protection against extreme cold. Aegean Islands, Abandoned by Nakfs The principal islands in the Aegean chain, where only skeleton Nazi forces now are reported remaining are Lemnos, Mytilene (ancient Lesbos), Chios, Samos and Rhodes.
