the 1so 900 gallons of oil would fill
618 tank cars of the German stand
ard, 10000 gallons car. French,
Dutch and Belgian cars have only
5000 gallon capacities. In addition
to the transportation problem there
is that of storage. The underground
storage tanks at a large American
airport hold $4,000 gallons each. If
the Germans used 100 fields and
15,00O-gallon storage tanks, four
such tanks must be constructed at
each field. All this for one con-
tinuous attack of less than hours
duration.
The supplying of bombs and am
munition is the next consideration.
Two tons for the heavy bomber,
one and half tons for the mediums
make 10000 tons, to be distributed
among 100 air fields, some of which
are distant from railroads, others
served by country roads.
Ammunition also must be placed
at every field. The heavy bombers
average six machine guns each and
the medium bombers four, a total
of $4,000 machine guns on the
5000. The Germans have increased
the fire power of their planes with
50-caliber guns, and the average
loading is 400 shells for each weap-
on, or 14,400,000 for the 5000 bomb
ers. That's 2,88O,O0O pounds of am
munition to be transported to the
advance air bases.
Huge Ground Crews.
Two tractors to pull the planes
into position for the take off and
five doIlies to rack the bombs on
the planes would be required at each
airport, along with two fuel trucks
to cart the fuel and oil to the
bombers as they arrive.
The work on the ground would
call for $500 highly trained special
lists. On each field there would be
at least tractor men for the 2
tractors, Is bomb-racking experts
for the dollies, fuel pump men to
the 2 trucks, IS armorers, including
helpers, to install the shells; en-
CINE mechanics, airplane mechan-
les, 2 map men, 2 radio operators,
meteorologists. teletype operators,
telephone operators, ground off,

mel. The average heavy bomber has
crew of 6, including pilots. and
the medium bombers have pilots
and 2 crew members. That would
mean 10000 in the heavy craft and
24,000 in the 5000 medium bombing
planes. A total of $1,000 highly
trained military pilots would be
necessary for the one "all-out" at
tack of 5000 bombing planes of less

Factors irUolUed in an "dll-out"
German air attack on Britdin
are discussed here, in the second
OF a series OF four articles.
BY CAPT. SHERMAN B. ALTICK.
The assumption is that Adolf
Hitler in the last five months has
been preparing and continues tc
prepare for a climactic attack by
air on the British Isles. 1t is esti-
mated that Hitler might marsha
some $4,000 warplanes for such ar
attack.
The assumption is not necessarily
correct. Neither is the estimate
of the size of the combat force
Surprise remains a major factor in
warfare and the Germans not only
are efficient militarily, but they are
given also to innovations" such as
poison gas, flame throwers, dive
bombers and parachutistS. 1t might
even be that Hitler will turn to the
submarine rather than TO the air
plane to give him the decision.
Therefore. it is not the purpose
of these articles to fix the manner
or scope of an aerial blitZkrieg or
England. 1t is the purpose, rather
to show what such an attack would
entail physically in the event il
should be made under implied con-
ditions.
A start in the consideration OF
Hitlers task has been made from
the premise that a force of 5000
bombers and 1000 fighter escorts
would make the all-out attack in
conformity with the Douhet theory
or a variation of that theory. The
bombers would come in waves OF
500 at half-hour intervals. The
objective would be complete mastery
of the air through the destruction
or immobilization of the defenders
The cost to the invading fleets would
not matter so long as in the end
there should remain in the air over
England only some effective force
of German planes.
Three Fleets Along Coast.
The best current information on
the location of the German air
force puts three fleets along the
European coast from Norway to the
Spanish frontier. One under Field
Marshal Gen. Albert Kesselring
covers Belgium, part of the Meth
erlands and Northern France. An
other, under Field Marshal Gen
Hugo Sperrie, is operating between
Brest and Spain. The third, under
Col. Gen. Hans Juergen Stump1f,
is based in Northern Netherlands,
Emden in Germany, Denmark and
Norway.
Besides countless training planes,
troop transports for parachutistS
and a few transports designed to
carry small tanks, the Germans
have some $4,000 first-line combat
planes of all types. Some of these
are In the Balkans, some in Italy
to assist Mussolini, and another
large feet Is in readiness for any
eventuality along the Soviet border,
from Poland to Rumania.
It could well be that Hitler might
attempt TO mass practlcally MS
whole force, instead of half, for a
lightning all-out attack on Eng
land. However, this would not
change the modus operandi. 1t
would intensity the attack, but it
would also increase the physical
requirements.
Again, it may be argued that Hit
Ter might require no more than
5000 bonbers by sending back re-
placements and new crews in for
nations with the bombers which
survived the first onslaughts. Thus,
while 5000 bombers might attack in
the day, 5000 would be repeaters.
