Ni.eii ve TYPICAL INVASION BEACH ON SICILYThis stretch of beach at Castellamare, Sicily, is typical of the kind of coastline which Allied invasion forces encountered. Mountainpus terrain extends to the sea, and all beaches were heavily mined: but our forces established a bridgehead in southeastern Sicily and are carrying on wide-scale offensive operations, I 'cJ .::4 i 4''''''.

Army Air Forces. Of great importance in invasion, these flying "freight cars" can carry a jeep, field artillery, or a complement of 15 men specially trained as shock troops. and can be towed by any bomber. These U. S.

Army Air Corps photos, made at a glider activity base in the United States. show how men are being trained in their use. Far cheaper to build and easier to maintain than the cheapest plane, gliders are as different from planes as a mule is different from a horse. They can move in men and materials to otherwise inaccessible areas. GIANT gliders, motorless fly- r.nhggeer es apmrs eb et rnh sao r.
