A Yellow Jet Overhead

A modern jet flies low overhead.
It flies over the village.
The jet lands on the snow outside the village.
The distinguished doctor, he aide, two boys and a little dog dismount.  The take some gear with them.
But first they observe the ruined monastery from a distance.
Gathering their gear they prepare to depart for the village.


They climb into their flying platforms and away they go!

Snow Covered Asian Mountains

A village in the mountains in Asia.
An ancient place guarded by brass dog statues and men armed with edged weapons.
A strange sight in the mid- 20th Century
 A trail leads up the mountains.
With small precarious bridges, and narrow paths, a land of many dangers...
one such dangers was thought legendary, but recently, all to real...

 the abandoned monastery on the hill overlooking the village.

Arctic Defense Headquarters

The troops have set up a perimeter and got the rockets ready for firing.
Northern Greenland, Canada, and Alaska are essential locations for missile defense against communist aggression. 
Units like this are operating all over the Arctic Circle to guard the homeland.
Scientists and soldiers operating together to set up a missile defense system.
The blue uniforms are a special camouflage to help blend in with the snow and the open water.
Special missile troops wear white uniforms.
The reconnaissance troops set up a heavy machine gun to defend the flank.
The staff set up a headquarters.
Arctic Defense Headquarters U.S. Army is just a tent, highly mobile.
My table set up about 8 x 4 feet in my side yard.

Rockets Deploy

After a few troops in the weasel perform a reconnaissance the infantry move in riding trucks and Jeeps.
Radio communication is essential.
The troops move forward and spread out.
Troops move forward and deploy on line.

Tracked rocket launchers now drive along the road parallel to the parked trucks.
The first tracked launcher deployed their missile launcher on the ground and prepared it before the remainder of the rocket launchers arrived.
The subsequent tracked rocket launchers deployed their rocket firing platforms.
Specialized troops in white protective uniforms ready the rockets for firing.
