FLYING RESERVE FORMING
Is Russia Massing
Giant Kamikaze Corps? .
(Editor'! Note Here is a soldier's view of Russia's post-war
military activity, as seen from inside the Soviet Union by a
British army officer who was stationed in Moscow as a
British military attache. He returned to London in 1948.)
By ROBERT MUSEL
London, Nov. 17 (U.B A former British attache in-Moscow said
today that Russia is amassing a flying reserve of such proportions
that he wonders whether the Soviets are creating a corps of
kamikaze or suicide pilots.
Russian boys and girls can now learn to fly as easily as they
once could learn to drive a car,'
MaJ. Gen. Richard Hilton said
In an interview summarizing
much of what he learned in two
years at Potsdam and in Moscow
despite the "leper-like isolation"
there ol foreign diplomats.
Dosav, the organization spon
soring the learn-to-fly campaign,
he said, is working on a greater
scale than any other similar
organization in the world.
It is possible, he said, these
boy and girl pilots may some
day be used in war "in forms
which may seem impossible to
our hidebound way of thinking."
Gen. Hilton said that when he
left Russia for retirement in
1948 he took along these "im
pressions":
1. Russians regard the whole
country as being one vast war
machine and believe consequent
ly that practically everything
that goes on economically or
otherwise is a military secret.
2. Foreign observers believe
the Soviet high command is ab
normally anxious to conceal the
true state of affairs.
3. The Red Square functions
seem too good to be true dclib
eratcly planned to give the out
side world a false impression of
Soviet military preparedness.
4. There is a faction In Rus
sian aviation led by Josef Stal
in's son which believes in stra
tegic bombing against the theo-lway last summer.
ry of tactical support to which
the Red airforce was devoted
in the last war.
5. The M.V.D. Secret police)
"this sinster force is the king
pin of the entire Soviet eystem."
It gets its results by terror.
It is hated and dreaded.
8. The Soviet .integration of
the armed forces is even more
perfect than the German "wehr-
macht," but political surveill
ance still is necessary and politi
cal commissars are. active al
though the Russians -claim
have abolished them.
