Czech. Hungarian. or other battalions of Eastern European nationals is worth a division of American. British. or French troops in opposing Stalin satellite armies." Such units would. according to a high American official just returned from Europe after spending 31/2 years with ironcurtain refugees. disintegrate the morale of Redcontrolled armies. To put a hypothetical case: If America were taken over by the Reds and our Armed Forces were under the military control of the Soviets. what effect would the setting up of real American units with American uniforms and American battle flags on the Mexican or Canadian border have? What would be the effect on the will to fight for Stalin on the part of the average young American under this control?
