U.S. Air Force General Five Lambs Find A Willing Foster Mother

Tells Of Squadron's Role

TO SUPPORT NATO TROOPS IN EVENT OF SOVIET THRUST

London, Dec. 5.

A United States Air Force division based in Britain has been as- signed the major mission of tactical atomic retallation against any Soviet thrust in Europe, it was disclosed today.

Brigadier-General John Stevenson lifted for the first time the secrecy shielding the job of his jet-powered 49th Air Division which was being re-equipped with supersonic swept-wing fighter-bombers. The divi- sion also includes a wing of jet-propelled B-45 “Tornado" bombers.

"Our mission previously has been highly classified." General Stevenson said in an interview. "But now I am allowed to tell you that the 49th Air Division is the main supplier of NATO's atomic potential”
