Polar Islands
As Bomb Bases
Washington (fl-An explor
er of the drifting polar Ice Is
lands says they would provide
excellent hiding places for
small, fast air units that could
deliver an atomic counterpunch
to an aggressor.
Lt Col. Joseph O. Fletcher
proposed building such units
"around the all-weather fighter
as an atomic bomb delivery ve
hicle." Writing for tha official pub
lication "Air University Quar
terly," Fletcher argued that
key regular bases might be de
stroyed If Russia suddenly
launched an atomic war and
friendly nations might be
frightened Into denying the
United State use of facilities
on their territory.
But, he said, dispersed
force such as he proposed
'would be at home anywhere
In the Arctic Ocean, would
possess unparalelled destruc
tive capability and . . . could
fade away Into the trackless ex
panses of lee and water easier
than an arab in the Sahara . . .
properly camoulflaged, lt could
lurk within short distances
from enemy shores without fear
of detection."
