WHY A "READY" AIR FORCE
RESERVE

On a weekend when most of us
are absorbed in the theraphy of
relaxing from the cares of bread
winning, a dedicated band of atom
age minutemen are becoming pro-
ficient in the tools of air power.
They are our Air Force Reservists,
our neighbors who in peace make
preparedness their business.
One weekend a month through
out the year and fifteen summer
days and nights they devote their
precious free time to building
their units into strong, cohesive
partners of the regular air force.
Their civilian interest in things
military insures the swift buildup
of our global air forces in a ma
tional emergency. Their participa-
tion in the air reserve training
programs eases greatly the eco
nomic burden we would shoulder
to maintain a large standing air
force
Our air reserve forces have flown
a steady, upward pattern since the
days of our first jet warfare in
Korea. There, twenty combat
wings, heavily augmented with re-
servists, destroyed 965 enemy air.
craft, crippled North Korean war
industry, and gained air superior
ity for the U. N. command. And by
having a reservoir of trained air
reservists ready for immediate mo-
bilization, the Air Force saved well
over a billion dollars in build-up
to war strength.
The lessons learned in Korea
are even more significant today.
1t is obvious that when war con-
fronts us again, whether a brush
fire" fiaring up suddenly or an all
out fight for national survival, we
will not have time to slowly mo-
bilize and train an augmentation
force. We are compelled by the
exigencies of an air-nuclear war
to have a "force in being. the com
bat capability of our standing air
force of 137 Wings backed up by
the 81 Combat Wings of the ali
reserve.
1t is our duty to understand the
urgent need for a ready air re
serve, not only as a force in war
but also as a force to deter war
To those air reservists in our fam
lilies, our plants and offices, we owe
our support. Encourage their con-
tinued participation in reserve
training. Recognize their qualities
