 HARBINGERS OF INVASION
 Our C47's carry but 20 para troopers, and can tow gliders hold ing 13 men, or a jeep, or a 75 nm. gun. While doing this they must have fighter support. Accordingly, it is clear that our air armada must be a large one in order to land sufficient men and supplies.
 Although the enemy knows that this branch of the army is going to play an important role, he has no idea of how large our transport fleet is nor where 1t will land its passengers. For this reason he is apprehensive. Could he concentrate his defense planes at one spot, he might prove real threat. With practically the entire continent within our flying range, he is at a loss to know where there harbin- gers of the invasion will alight.
