'Aqgressor Force Gives
Army Soviet-Like Foe

BONN, July IL (NANA):-
The Pentagon is creating a fam
tastic mock Russian army for
more realistic training.
Troops of this "Aggressor
Force" have become a standard
feature of United States troop
training in Germany. Innu-
merable Germans, at the sight
of the vaguely Russian-style
"aggressor" uniforms. have
concluded that a Soviet inva-
sion must be under way. and
have hit the panic button.
The United States Army's
"Aggressor Force" has not only
its own uniform but its own
completely different customs,
traditions and history = all
reminiscent of the Soviet.
The "Aggressor" also has a
headQuarterS-the "AggreSSor
Center" at Fort Riley, Kans.
with a staff of 80 officers and
400 enlisted men who devote
their full time trying to think
and act like Russians.
From its uniform factory and
storage facilities. the "Aggres-
sor Center" can supply an army
of 10000 with the distinctive
green uniform of the mock foe

the same time the Army drafts
its procedures and training
problems in a manner so metz
culously oriented to the Soviets
that nobody is unaware of the
identity of the "Aggressor."
All this the SovietS know,
and they find little humor in
it. On a West Berlin training
problem, a young lieutenant
committed the objectionable
blunder-clad in an "Aggres-
sor" uniform. he stumbled into
Russian controlled territory
and was picked up BY a Soviet
patrol.
The Soviets ruled the lieu
tenant couldn't be an American
because he wasn't in a United
States uniform, and therefore
must be an agent. The Rus
slams held the hapless officer
several weeks before releasing
him.

munications, suppress or dis
tort the arguments of the
opposition, and are always
right.
I cannot recall one instance
in which, after one of these
purges. bloody or otherwise,
a newspaper. journal. or
radio station has effectively
reported the issues. In Russia
and other Communist-ruled
states nobody can afford to
lose. There is no comeback.
This was illustrated, in the
regime of Stain, who had
from the beginning oppo-
nents in the party. outspoken
within its counsels. But he
was not succeeded. by any of
them because he killed them.
His successors toadied to him,
and denounced his iniquities
only when he was dead.
Toadyism is inbuilt in the
system. Most men like power
and the perquisites that go
with it, and Communists are
no exception. To keep power
a Communist official must
assess the way the wind is
blowing within top party
ranks. In other countries a
political dissident within a
party or administration can
retire to private life and an
occupation outside of politics
and often much more re-
munerative. In Communist
countries there are no private
occupations to absorb those
who have lost an intraparty
debate.

Thus freedom Of "associa-

the right Of petition covered

This could mean that the

could mean also that free

been reinforced by the
Supreme Courts decision.
Normally, constitutional

has busted of the John C.
Calhoun doctrine of inter-
position and enacted State
laws forbidding any step
toward indignation under
