He said 40 planes took part in
^ie mock raid.
Admiral Bogan further denied
that land-based bombers had
knocked the navy task force out
of action.
At the time the B-29 strike
(against fleet units* was supposed
to have taken place,” he said, “we
had a ceiling of 800 feet and it
was snowing. I don’t know’ how a
B-29 could have seen us, much
less knocked us out.”
The admiral termed the exercise
to date “very successful.” It indi
cated, he said, that naval forces
can operate effectively in Alaskan
w'aters, “a sector w'hich assume
vital importance in the event of
war.”

2,000 Marines
Train At Kodiak
KODIAK. (A3)—An amphibious
force of 2,000 marines is undergo
ing cold-weather tests and is ex
pected to take part in mock land
ings later in the week.
Rear Adm. B. J. Rodgers, com
mander of the amphibious forces
in the Pacific, said he was pleased
with the performance of men and
equipment in the opening stages of
the exercise.
Weather here has ranged right
around freezing, but temperatures
of 40 to 70 below are common on
the mainland. He. said equipment
has proved “surprisingly effec
tive.”
The admiral arrived here by
plane from San Diego a few hours
before the Aleutian alert was or
dered.
"This is a good start,” he said.
“Next year we may go to the
mainland of Alaska, where it real
ly gets cold.”
Admiral Rodgers said the navy
hopes, from these exercises, to de
velop landing craft which can
break through ice, and vehicles
that can cover the ice and snow
terrain of Alaska.
