For visible light, use any normal LED light source available. For infrared ("night vision" style), use an infrared LED panel. These are sold as accessories for closed-circuit video systems.
If the camera is insensitive to infrared or has a non-defeatable IR filter, this won't work. Try MCM Electronics.
Looks like you have the answer for the lights so an idea for the shockproof / waterproof cases http://www.3d-cases.co.uk/waterproof-cas... who have many makes and sizes.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
