RUSSIA COULD.
FIELD ARMY OF
20 MILLION MEN
(continued from page 1)
They are organized into the army,
navy, air force and MVD se
curity troops.
The strength of the army—the
ground forces—is about 3,500,000.
It is the largest peacetime stand
ing army in the world.
Behind the mobilized first line
fighting force there are large
masses of trained reserves. Using
these reserves Russia can quick
ly mobilize and maintain in the
field an army of over 29,000,000
men.
Such a force Russia maintained
during the last war. The improveme nt in the Soviet. economic situation due to victory and
the expansion of her war. potential by the current 5 year plan
makes the maintenance of 25,000,000 armed forces easier now
than during World War II.
The navy is the best trained
and disciplined of Russia’s fighting forces. It is, however, small
and inefficient in comparison
with the navies of the U. S. or
Great Britain. The main strength
of the Russian navy is its submarines of which there are several
hundred.
Many
German
naval experts are being used by
the Russians to improve the valUe ol tacir submarines and other
ships. The Russian navy, however could not prevent a strong
‘hostile fleet from landing troops
on her Black Sea or far eastern
coasts.
Greater improvement has been
shown ‘in the Russian air force
since the end of World War ‘II
than in’ any other Russian fi¢ht
ing arm. The improvement started
immediately
after
the
war
and has continued to date.
Stalin and the other top Communist leaders have given their
personal attention to the reorganization, reequipping and Tetraining of the air force.
During the war:the Soviet air
force was used primarily as an
auxiliary of the ground forces
to which it was closely tied both
organically. and tactically.
After the war Stalin. and the
other members: of. the Politburo
saw
the
great.
destruction
lor obably the largest (in numbers)
of any other force.
The Russian MVD security
troops are identical
-in’ purpose
to the SS troops of Hitler.
‘The strength of their force is

t is not the great size of the
Russian
armed
forces
which
make'them a menace to world
oeace. The danger is.in the character of the Russian. officers and
afficials. The loot and rape of
Europe during and after the war
has made these Russians _ rich,
but it has fired their desire for
more wealth.
All ranks of the Russian fighting forces look forward to the
day when,they can’ again. loot
