been proud that her daughter was sensible enough not to have sex without my daughter and she put herself and the whole family through not but heartsick in Ohio dear Ohio your Point is Well Young women who Are sexually Active should also be sexually thanks for making a Point of what would happen if we went to War after listening to much of the debate currently going on in our Congress and in the parliaments of most european nations regarding the readiness of natos conventional one very important question comes to my and probably should come to the mind of most enlisted air Force members stationed in the question is the most important ques Tion any member of any military in the world can ask him or if we went to War would i be Able to kill the enemy before he kills me after being in Europe for almost two years and participating in numerous base exercises and the answer is a resounding wartime training for enlisted air Force members consists solely of learning to prop Erly Wear chemical warfare suits and hiding under ones desk or diving into a will that chemical warfare suit Stop bullets will my desk or that ditch protect me from a bomb will the door to my building Stop even one Warsaw pact Soldier from gaining Access again the Only answer i get is the air Force does train Security policemen in combat but what happens when and if the Security policemen Are killed will those of us who Haven been trained As the policemen have to be under our desks what Are we to do if soviet soldiers Knock Down our doors Well be sitting i am not suggesting that the air Force require All enlisted members to practice combat strategy and tactics every we do have a peacetime Mission that must be combat training should be made available to those members who wish to survive the next when it comes right Down to it we Are in a military organization and our first priority should be to Stop anyone who threatens our country or her will the air Force Ever realize that in War the enemy will use real bombs and real that we cant kill the enemy without proper training and that we cant Stop one soviet Soldier while hiding Huck Sembab a editors note John Security police training he replies we shall attempt to answer your questions theoretically As they were and include the possibility that you May not have had the Opportunity to attend All the training classes and briefings by your local in answer to your first question regard ing an ability to kill the enemy before he kills in the conduct of your wartime you will kill the enemy by per forming your whether As an air Craft fuel truck bomb loader or food service you will be contributing to the defeat of the the time to prepare for killing the enemy is now during peacetime the better you prepare the less you need to worry about them killing you allow me to use an example that can be adapted to any of our air Force specially codes the air Force Mission is air this statement in the reason you and i Are in All of us have jobs to do which Are interdependent with others doing some jobs overlap More than but the Point is it takes the personnel clerk to have the records Correct for the food services specialist to provide the meal for the forecaster so he can work efficiently and provide the Correct weather information to the avionics specialist who adjusts the instruments so the Pilot can take Are you starting to get the picture pulling the trigger i the cockpit can Only happen As a result of training which involves Many More people that just the before the last up is killed at your installation and i guarantee you this is going to be a very costly Effort for the you would probably already be relocated to another if you note a sense of Confidence in the ability of our Security police air base ground you Are

efficient than a minimally qualified group which May be extremely difficult to con i dont know your but if you still Are not comfortable with Pur answer thus maybe you would like to consider becoming a Security police heres what you can expect Security police Are trained in their primary role of peacetime Law enforcement or ancillary training to include chemical War Driver special weapons professional military Host nation and we Haven yet mentioned very extensive air base ground de sense in addition to the extremely heavy training schedule for Security we demand of ourselves a very High Standard of excellence from within our Security police not Only do Security police men and women stand a formal equipment and uniform inspection every time they go to but after 812 hours or longer they must continue to maintain a professional attitude no matter what the Circum stances its a Tough program but we like it that or we turn in the in i would like to address your ending if the
