There has been an outcry in
Following the worrying incident (what if the marines
had a MANPAD?) South Koreans are calling for improved training of their
soldiers. I propose a simpler solution. Back in WWII soldiers were issued
playing cards with aircraft silhouettes. The idea was to help them familiarize
themselves with allied types. I'm not sure how many aircraft (if any) such
cards saved from friendly fire, but it would be a good, low cost solution for
the South Koreans and provided a much needed PR opportunity. ![]()
