Allied Ships Shell
Wonsan For 366tli
Consecutive Day
ABOARD THE DESTROYER
USS TWINING in Wcmsan Har
bor, (A3) — Allied warships un
loaded a “birthday bombard
ment” through a snowstorm on
battered Wonsan Saturday — the
longest siege in U.S. naval his
tory.
The shelling, continuous daily
for 365 days, entered its second
year.
Before dawn two destroyers
hurled shells on the east coast
seaport, also a vital communist
industrial and transportation hub.
The destroyer Gregory joined
in the 366th consecutive day of
offshore battering.
A snowstorm Saturday morn
ing had been in progress 72 hours.
It blocked observation of shell
hits from radar-directed guns of
the Twining and Gregory.
The bombardment of a city that
once had a population of nearly
100,000 proceeded on a methodical
basis.

Weapons In Arctic
CAMP DRUM, N.Y., (A5)—Gen
erals and umpires huddled Satur
day to review lessons learned in
an unprecedented, double - bar
reled maneuver highlighted by
battlefield use of simulated atomic
weapons and mass jumps of air
borne troops under Arctic condi
tions.
As a basis for the critique
there was a huge file of data and
maps and personal observations
of just-completed “exercise snow
fall.” For a week, 33,000 combat
soldiers and supporting forces
fought a mock war over 1,500
square miles, using techniques
and weapons never before em
ployed under similar conditions.
The six - week exercise had ^
made it plain it was feasible to
send down thousands of fighting
men and their weapons onto a
battleline or behind it, in subzero
cold and snow and keep them
fighting through aerial re-supply
operations.
This, of course, presumes that
friendly air superiority is main
tained. The answer on ability of
troops to keep fighting after
atomic attack was not as easy,
mainly because the situation was
hypothetical.
Among the tangible factors was
the rate of non-battle casualties
to be expected in big airborne op
erations in frigid temperatures.
Experts learned the accident rate
was directly related to the cold.
The lower the temperatue the
greater the number of accidents.
During the exercise, 6,329 men
parachuted, of whom three were
killed and 64 injured enough for
hospitalization.
