wing span and a 70 horse power
engine.
Now, and continuing through
the next year, the RCATs will be
much in evidence in the vicinity
of the Army's antiaircraft train
ing base at Locust Point.
An especially trained group of
one officer and 13 enlisted men,
designated the 68th Antiaircraft
Artillery RCAT) Detachment, is
stationed at Erie Ordnance Depot
to operate and maintain the radio
planes.
The planes are manufactured by
the Radioplane Co. of Van Nuys,
Calf, and a company representa-
tive, Joseph H. Moser, has been
on hand this month to assist in
perfecting the action of the little
planes.
Normally flown between the al
titudeS of $50 to $4,000 feet, the
target presents the gunner with a
side area the same as that of an
attacking plane, and at guns eff
fective range. 1t can hit a speed
of $50 miles per hour.
M/Sgt. Dale R. Hougas, who
earned six campaign stars while
serving with the 191st Tank Bat
talon in Europe during World
War II, and now the top enlisted
man with the RCATs, explained
the operation of the radioplane.
"The RCAT is sent skyward
from $50 foot diameter circular
track, after two and a half laps
and at a speed of 85 miles an
hour.
Retrieving it after its descent
is no problem for it comes apart
as easily as it goes together. One
man can carry the wings, couple
of others the frame, and another
the parachute. A duck retrives
it from the water, when shot
down, and it can be shot down,
alright. 1t has two vital spots
| the engine in the nose of the
plane and the radio receiver in
the fuselage behind the wing"
"RCATs may be damaged by
gun fire, or sometimes there's
trouble with the parachute open
ing", Sgt. Hougas said. 'They may
| end up in trees, a farmyard, or
field miles away. We once chaS-
