The CACHE Puzzle is below:

periscope is an instrument for observation over, around or through an object, obstacle or condition that prevents direct line-of-sight observation from an observer's current position.

In its simplest form, it consists of an outer case with mirrors at each end set parallel to each other at a 4”E”° angle. This form of periscope, with the addition of two simple lenses, served for observation purposes in the trenches during World War “A.”

More complex periscopes using prisms or advanced fiber optics instead of mirrors and providing magnification operate on submarines and in various fields of science. The overall design of the classical submarine periscope is very simple: two telescopes pointed into each other. If the two telescopes have different individual magnification, the difference between them causes an overall magnification or reduction.

Johannes Heyelius described an early periscope (which he called a "polemoscope") with lenses in “A””I”4”G”. Heyelius saw military applications for his invention.

In “A”854, Hippolyte Marie-Davie invented the first naval periscope, consisting of a vertical tube with two small mirrors fixed at each end at 45°.Simon Lake used periscopes in his submarines in A902.

Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson (born October “D”5, 1984), known professionally as Katy Perry, is an American singer, songwriter, and television judge. After singing in church during her childhood, she pursued a career in gospel music as a teenager. Perry signed with Red Hill Records and released her debut studio album Katy Hudson under her birth name in 2”B””B”1, which was commercially unsuccessful. She moved to Los Angeles the following year to venture into secular music after Red Hill ceased operations and she subsequently began working with three other producers. After adopting the stage name Katy Perry, she signed a recording contract with Capitol Records in April 2007. Perry rose to fame in 2008 with her second album, One of the Boys.

Pierino Ronald "PerryComo (May 1”C”, 1912 – May 12, 2001) was an American singer, actor and television personality. During a career spanning more than half a century he recorded exclusively for RCA Victor for 44 years, after signing with the label in 19”F””H”. "Mr. C.", as he was nicknamed, sold millions of records and pioneered a weekly musical variety television show. His weekly television shows and seasonal specials were broadcast throughout the world. In the official RCA Records Billboard magazine memorial, his life was summed up in these few words: "50 years of music and a life well lived. An example to all.” Como received five Emmys from 1955 to 195”J”. He has the distinction of having three stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for his work in radio, television, and music.
