(4) Additional facilities required at bases in Indochina:
Army - A logistic support base similar to but on a smaller scale to that established at Pusan, Korea.
Navy - Base requirements can be met with existing mobile logistic support units now in FECOM and by expansion of bases in the Philippines.
Air Force - Light and fighter bomber and interceptor wings will operate from existing facilities in Indochina. This operation may require two wings to operate from one airbase. POL can be supplied.

The majority of FEAF's airlift capability must be made available to insure effective operation if units are required to move in on short notice.
