Smal though this force was, care was taken ta establish it on a firm rlogistie base and with a healthy .training element. The wiseness !o! this policy has made îtself iceryevident in aur large cx- pansion which followed the Korcan aggression. We have been able ta undertake success- !1ully the flying training af aur awn Canadian airmen along with the training of a large' number of aircrew for aur N *A.T.O. partriers-about 1200 Pilots and navigators each 3èear -young men from the U.K., France, Belgium, Hollaud, Den- mark, Norway, Turkey, Greece, Italy and Portugal. Concentrate On Fighters "On top of this great train- ing task, we have been able ta put a large part of aur expand- ing RCAF resources into oper- ational elements-mainly fight- er squadrans. Iu addition ta the increasing number of fighter squadrons at home in Canada, you are aware, of course, a! the important element of the RCAF which serves overseas-twelve ECAF fighter squadrans on ba- ses in France and Germany which operate with the forces 9 of the other N.A.T.O. cauntries., If you are the sort of persansj who take pride in Canadian achievements, and I amn sure that you are, you will get real satisfaction in knowing that1 there is no better air fighter1 element in operation in Eu- rope than your Canadian Air Division. Why? Because the Canadian made fighter aircraft, the Sabre VI, powered with a Canadian designed and built jet engine, the Oreuda, is the best perfarming fighter in op- erational squadrans in Europe today. Furthermore your young Canadian airmen, aircrew anda groundcrew, are making thes most o! their fine equipinent.c The saine high degree of effi- ciency applies ta your Canadian Army Brigade in Germany-ac fine farce-but I arn here to- day ta talk ta you about your Air Force Why do we have these for-e ces at home and averseas?

To me, although 1 bave be ail my adult life in the É Force, this continues ta be intensely challenging and fi cinating business, and, course, an exceedingly wort while one. We have gone a long way the RCAF since I trained on World War 1 Camel fighter years ago. By comparison, lâ week I flew in one of o- CFIOO all-weather two seal fighter aircraft. My pilot wv the commander of one of oi fighter squadrons, and I fur tioned as his navigator and r dar operator. We carried u practice interceptions by wor' ing with two ather CF11 fighters at 41000 feet altitude- about eight miles aboya tl ground. We got up there samething like 7 minutes, aur 17 ton Canadian-design. and built aircraft, through ti stout efforts of its two Can; dian-designed and buit Orei da jet engines delivering a t( taI of about 15,000 pounc thrust, and our speeds at tim( approached 550 mph. We cai ried a formidable wallop armament - batteries af rocl ets and eight machine guns .5 calibre. We carried out fiv successful interceptions againc one another, despite the fact c My own bad performancea a radar aperator, and we wer above several layers of ctouc and in and out of cloud. out a sigaht of the ground, through out the entire hour and a ha] of aur practice. 1 will try nov. briefly, ta give you same ide of how the air defence systen .vorks: Guard Againat Attack The radar stations and fighl er squadrons o! the systein ari now lacated, so far as we cai best determine, ta guar( against the most likely avenue of enemy air attack agains North America. Phase I of ou: ystem is naw coming into ful 'peration and will be augmentý *d in due, course by lines of ra. dar and ather warning device extending right acrass the con. tient ta the northward of aui present system. The Distani Early Warning Line, called thE the DEW line, being buiît b3 the U.S. with Canadian partici. pation, extends roughly sloni the -arctic coastîmne. The Mid Canada line which we- Cana. ians are building extendg frm the Pacifie ta the Atlan. ic at raughly the latitude of th southern part of Hudson Bay. These additional devices wiu bring us additional hours and minutes af warning anc will add great]y ta the effec- .veness of aur air defences. When aur air defence sys- ýms deteet an unidentifiec ircraft over or approaching anadian territory, what hap- )ens? First, ail passible means ai Ientifying the "bogey" are ied, including electronic de- ces. If these fail ta determine lfinitely that it is a friendly ircraft, a fighter is sent up ta dentîfy it at close range. The ighter is guided ta the approx- mate position by the ground adar contrai stations which end radio instructions ta the lot and navigatar of the fight- r.When it gets within some iles of the "bogey", the radar Et in the fighter is able ta la- ate the "bogey" and the fight- rflics ta intercept it.
