"SUGAR BOMB OPERATION" AT TROOPER ISLAND "Bombardier to pilot. The island is right below. There's the target.

Start the bomb run and let's make it count." Although this sounds like sneak attack by a World War II flving ace, it isn't. The island is Trooper Island, the summer boys' camp onerated by the Kentucky State Police, and the bombardier and his pilot are business executives out for an afternoon of helpful fun. The "bomb" is really a cardboard box filled with some 35 pounds of candy and other treats. From the plane, the box hurtles downward, a parachute opens and the container lands softly on the island, where it is rushed by a horde of happy campers. As the plane circles to drop another box.

State Tooper, camp counselors arrive to help distribute the candy to the campers. For the fliers, it's a rewarding way to earn some flying time and for the boys at camp it's an exciting and tasty way to end their week on Trooper Island. The idea of "Operation Sugar Bomb," was originated by Joe 'Hollbrook and Bill Hunter more than a year ago. They obtained permission from the State Police and U. S.

Army Corps of Engineers to make the first of their drops to Trooper Island last summer. Since that time, several other week-end flying enthusiasts have become interested in the project and now seven fliers are participating. A total of 12 such candy drops will be made during this summer's camp sessions. Local state troopers, Shannon Corman and Kenneth Keith, will be volunteer counselors for one week next month. Mr.
