Corps Strengthened
Air Force Major Has Been
Assigned To State CD
Staff

In another move to strengthen
Delaware's gravely undermanned
Ground Observer Corps. an Air
Force major has been ASSIGNED
full-time to the State Civil Defense
stan to spur the formation of new
plane spOtter posts.
He is Major William 3. Blagg. Jr
Just back from combat duty, in
Korea, who will serve as the liason
ofdcer between the state Civil De-
tense and the Air Force.
His appointment is part of a
GOC reorganization touched off bv
the recent disclosure that the ma
tion's protective radar net, once
thought to be invulnerable to lam
ming now can be blocked by an
enemy device, thus putting greater
reliance on plane spoilers for an
early warning Of a surprise air
attack.
The Air Forces Willingness to
assign a fulltime officer in Delaware
points up the Importance of the
plane sDOtter, d. Preston Lee, state
Civil Defense Director, stressed in
announcing the appointment. Here
totore, he explained, Air Force per-
sonnel have worked only part-time
with the Delaware GOC.
