Stratemeyer Warns of Red Air Build Up in Manchuria
United Nations air commander Lt. Gen. George E. Stratemeyer tells U S News and World Report that Communists are rapidly expanding air power in Manchuria and North China. He says there is little that can be done to stop an air offensive unless bases are struck, and notes limits set by the Yalu border and North Korean ground actions. He cites a large air battle in KOREA, the up to 159 MIGs knocked out since November, and observes UN withdrawals north of the 38th parallel, with counterattacks planned where possible.
