= "When the Revolution began in 1789, Monge was among the most widely known of French scientists. (...) As an examiner of naval cadets he directed a branch of France's military schools (...). It also enabled him to visit iron mines, foundries, and factories, and [he] thus became an expert on metallurgical and technological questions. (...) From the beginning of September 1793 until October 1794, he took part in the work of the Committee on Arms. He wrote, with Vandermonde and Berthollet, a work on the manufacture of forge and case-hardened steels, drew up numerous orders concerning arms manufacture for Lazare Carnot and C.L. Prieur, supervised Paris arms workshops, assembled technical literature on the making of cannons, gave "revolutionary courses" on this latter subject (February-March 1794), and wrote an important work on it."
