Rep Lawrence Lewis argues for a 6000 acre high altitude training camp near Jones Pass to develop ski troops. A 10800 to 13000 foot base near Fraser would allow cooperative air force training with dog teams, winter and summer operations, and lessons learned from Finnish and Alpine skiers.

Soldiering Is Career Now Not an Excuse to Plot Revolt
A NEA summary from Willis Thornton presents Mexico's defense evolution south of the Rio Grande. Mexico’s army stands at 52,000 with growth potential from a compulsory refining bill, while the navy remains underfunded and underprepared. The navy department faces long-range needs, including destroyers and a torpedo-boat flotilla, as it seeks to patrol vast coasts with limited ships and pilots. The finance plan allocates about 16 million pesos yearly, funding ships, training, yards, fisheries regulation, and a fragile merchant marine. Plans call for a marine corps of five battalions totaling about 2,600 for coast defense and landings, though details remain tentative.
