CCAF aircraft, by type, are estimated to be as follows: ) Bombers Fighters Transport ) TU-2 92 LA-5 20 C-46 22 IL-2 20 LA-7 20 C-47 5 B-24 1 LA-9 80 -- FB-26 3 P-51 12 -- Oscar 30 ~ojo 18 Total 116 Total 180 I Total 27 ., Grand Total 323 Of these aircraft the obsolescent Japanese types are supposedly used for training. However, they could be put to llmite~ combat use in ca~~ of neces~ify. J Personnel strength is e~timated at approximately 30,000 officers and men of whom ther.e are approximately 550 pilots, 700 aircrew members, and the balance composed of ground crew personnel. The figure of 30,000 total may seem unreasonably high, but it possibly includes laborers involved in airfield construction, in which ·case the total ls not excessive. A more accurate personnel flgti_re cannot be presented with the information now available. _.,. Aside from the CCAF, it is nec~ssary to include the-Soviet Far Eastern Air Force elements in China. These planes, while not an integral part of the CCAP, must be con­ sidered a potential likely to be lnvolv~d in any. overt action of the, CCP. They must be ) piloted by Soviets or, m~~e likely, may be turned over to the CC~f in much.the same way , that Soviet aircraft were given to the North Koreans in ~fr confU~L Their. aircraft, by ) 'type, are as follows: · ~ Bombers Fighters ·transport \ \ I TU-2 44 YAK-21 32 u:..2 3·a -- YAK-15 8 - 90 LA;-9 ' Total 44 Total 130 Total 38 Grand Total 212 ' . I _ It is estimated that the Soviet aircraft are manned and maintained by approximately 8,000 peraonn~l. · 2 SECRET SECRET WEEKLY INTELLIGENCE DIGEST No. 44-50 COMMUNIST CHINA Ccont'd) It is to be noted tl)at no Jet aircraft are believed to be a part of the CCAF. The Chinese Com~unist Air Force (CCAF) is organized along lines similar to the Soviet Air Force. There is a Commande.r in Chief, Liu Ya Lou, who is directly responsible to the People's Revolution Military Committee. Under the CinC, and included in his HQ' s at Peiping, there are five departments as follows: 1. Garrison Dept, in charge of medicine, guarding, and anti-air raid. 2. Supply Dept, in charge of supply and repair. 3. Ground Service (or Maintenance) Dept, in charge of recreation, communication, transportation and base. 4. Operation (or Pilot) Dept, in charge of operation_s and training. 5. Planning Dept, in charge of intelligence and personnelj The-air districts within the air command are very similar to, If not an exact dupli­ cate of, the CCP military districts. These are tentatively identified as follows: the North China, comprising Shansi and Hopeh Provinces and northward; the North-West China, com­ prising Shensi and ~su P~ovinces and northwestw~d; the Central South China, compris­ ing Honan, Bupeh, Hunan, Kiangsi, ~wangsi, and Kwangtung Provinces; the E~st_China, com­ prising Shan~,_Kiangsu, Anhyei, Phekiang, and Fuklen Provinces; and J>erhaps, the South West Chiiµi J?~strict, comprising the remaining provinces to the southw~st.

  • Albert J. Baciocco, Jr. Vice Admiral, US Navy (Retired)
    Albert J. Baciocco, Jr. Vice Admiral, U. S. Navy (Retired) - - - - Vice Admiral Baciocco was born in San Francisco, California, on March 4, 1931. He graduated from Lowell High School and was accepted into Stanford University prior to entering the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, Maryland, in June 1949. He graduated from the Naval Academy in June 1953 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering, and completed graduate level studies in the field of nuclear engineering in 1958 as part of his training for the naval nuclear propulsion program. Admiral Baciocco served initially in the heavy cruiser USS SAINT PAUL (CA73) during the final days of the Korean War, and then in the diesel submarine USS WAHOO (SS565) until April of 1957 when he became one of the early officer selectees for the Navy's nuclear submarine program. After completion of his nuclear training, he served in the commissioning crews of three nuclear attack submarines: USS SCORPION (SSN589), as Main Propulsion Assistant (1959-1961); USS BARB (SSN596), as Engineer Officer (1961-1962), then as Executive Officer (1963- 1965); and USS GATO (SSN615), as Commanding Officer (1965-1969). Subsequent at-sea assignments, all headquartered in Charleston, South Carolina, included COMMANDER SUBMARINE DIVISION FORTY-TWO (1969-1971), where he was responsible for the operational training readiness of six SSNs; COMMANDER SUBMARINE SQUADRON FOUR (1974-1976), where he was responsible for the operational and material readiness of fifteen SSNs; and COMMANDER SUBMARINE GROUP SIX (1981-1983), where, during the height of the Cold War, he was accountable for the overall readiness of a major portion of the Atlantic Fleet submarine force, including forty SSNs, 20 SSBNs, and various other submarine force commands totaling approximately 20,000 military personnel, among which numbered some forty strategic submarine crews.

  • Navy and Coast Guard Ships Associated with Service in Vietnam and Exposure to Herbicide Agents
    Navy and Coast Guard Ships Associated with Service in Vietnam and Exposure to Herbicide Agents Background This ships list is intended to provide VA regional offices with a resource for determining whether a particular US Navy or Coast Guard Veteran of the Vietnam era is eligible for the presumption of Agent Orange herbicide exposure based on operations of the Veteran’s ship. According to 38 CFR § 3.307(a)(6)(iii), eligibility for the presumption of Agent Orange exposure requires that a Veteran’s military service involved “duty or visitation in the Republic of Vietnam” between January 9, 1962 and May 7, 1975. This includes service within the country of Vietnam itself or aboard a ship that operated on the inland waterways of Vietnam. However, this does not include service aboard a large ocean- going ship that operated only on the offshore waters of Vietnam, unless evidence shows that a Veteran went ashore. Inland waterways include rivers, canals, estuaries, and deltas. They do not include open deep-water bays and harbors such as those at Da Nang Harbor, Qui Nhon Bay Harbor, Nha Trang Harbor, Cam Ranh Bay Harbor, Vung Tau Harbor, or Ganh Rai Bay. These are considered to be part of the offshore waters of Vietnam because of their deep-water anchorage capabilities and open access to the South China Sea. In order to promote consistent application of the term “inland waterways”, VA has determined that Ganh Rai Bay and Qui Nhon Bay Harbor are no longer considered to be inland waterways, but rather are considered open water bays.
