Ever since mid-summer of H 5 0 , military activity in Korea ha* caller for heavy transpacific air traffic by civilian cargo planes. Over one of their routes they fly a round trip of 13,450 miles—some twenty-six times the length of the famous airlift into Merlin. Hundreds of companies help sup ply this operation. Maybe you'd like to know what it takes from an oil company to run an airlift. Standard's part in the Pacific airlift shows that it’s a big help to have large companies on hand when the going gets rough. Our work is focused mainly at Wake Island, that pinpoint some 4(XX) miles from the U. S. West Const. After World War II, Wake was a refueling stop for commercial airliners en route to the Orient. But then came the struggle at the 38th parallel — ^ B e f o r e t r o u b le k in d le d in K orea, only 20 planes a week re fueled at Wake. Then that num- her multiplit-d many times. We’d l»een supplying gas to the i n la n d , when the U. S. asked us to step I up deliveries, wc were able to do y it. As a big, integrated company, P? we called on our own tanker fleet. A s a ir a c t iv it y stepped up even more, Wake needed larger round crews. Again, ta n d a r d ’s b ig n e s s helped.Using facilities in Honolulu, we quickly trained m en, tripled our Wake manpower. To s e c u r e th e s p e c ia l l o a d i n g ^ eq u ip m en t needed by the ground . crews, a Standard ship picked up the nearest available—at far-off Canton E Island. And at U. S. request, we ■ helped build new storage facilities 1 along Wake's runways. S T o k e e p W ake and the a irlift su p p lie d on a regu lar b a sis, Standard drew once more on its tanker fleet. We now operate a shuttle service to Wake from the Pacific ('oast. Again, being big and havingourown facilities helps us serve.

It would take a stack of drums a mile high to hold our in creased daily output for this use. At the same time, we’re also supplying military needs . . . and our usual volume for motorists.
