HOWEVER I AM FORCED BY CIRCUMSTANCES TO TAKE YOUR.MESSAGE SERIOUSLY AND I HAVE JUST RETURNED FROM AN INSPECTION OF THE AREA. THE L2 SUGGESTED IN THE WINTER IS NOT USABLE NOW AS IT IS ON A SWAMPY MEADOW. I HAVE DEED ON THE FOLLOWING PLACE: 1:75000 SALMS-.19. COORDINATES POINT 43.2 FROM WEICH THE RUNWAY IS AT AN AZIMUTH OF 30, OR FROM KURSISI AT ANAZIMUTH OF 225, DISTANCE 3 RIM. THIS IS A DRY MEADOW, WHICH HAS BEEN USED AS PASTURE, THE GROUND IS HARD, WITHOUT DITCHES, STONES AND MOUNDS. THE LENGTH OF THE RUNWAY METERS THE WIDTH IS 100 NETERS, THE DIRECTION IS AZIMUTH 300. AT BOTH ENDS THE RUNWAY IS BORDERED BY DITCHES. AT THE NORTH END, ABOUT 250 METERS ' FROM THE DITCH, ARE SOME 15 METER HIGH.TREES ( ON THE EDGE OF A FOREST). IN THE SOUTHERN DIRECTION ARE CULTIVATED FIELDS WITHOUT TREES, EXTENDING FOR ABOUT 500 EETERS, AFTER WHICH THE FOREST BEGINS METER HIGH TREES. WEST OF THE RUNWAY SHOWN ON THE SKETCH IS ANOTHER MEADOW AND PLANTED FIELDS. THE AREA IS EXPOSED, WITHOUT TREES. ON THE EAST SIDE IS A MEADOW EXTENDING FOR ABOUT 200 METERS AND THEN, ALONG THE ENTIRE LENGTH OF THE ROAD, THERE IS A FOREST ABOUT 15 METERS HIGH. AT THE SOUTH END OF THE RUNWAY, ON THE WEST SIDE, AND ALSO AT THE NORTH END, THERE IS ONE 10-METER HIGH SPRUCE TREE AT EACH POINT, WHICH I HAVE DESIGNATED ON THE SKETCH AND

10 WHICH MAY SERVE AS LANDMARKS. THE TREES ARE OUTSIDE OF THE RUNWAY AND ' ARE NOT IN THE WA17,7 THE GENERAL SITUATION AROUND THE RUNWAY IS SHOWN PAM it-, ERS THE SKETCH. THE HOUSES NEARBY ARE INHABITED BY HARMLESS =MBE; WHO :PRESENT NO DANGER AND DO NOT HAVE A TELEPHONE. THERE ARE NO MILITARY OR MILITIA UNITS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. _I CONSIDER THE PLACE EXTREMELY. SUITABLE. A PLACE FOR THE RADIO BASE HAS BEEN FOUND IWOUID RECOMMEND THAT THE OPERATION BE CARRIED OUTAS SOON ASPOSSIBLE, : AS ONE NEVER KNOWS HOW MUCH RAIN THERE WILL BE IN THE FALL. THE NIGHTS ARE :SUFFICIENTLY LANG AT THIS TINE. THE NEAREST HOUSE SEEN ON THE MAP AT THE SOUTH END OF THE RUNWAY IS NOT THERE IN. REALITY. THE HOUSES IN THE NORTHWEST CANNOT BE SEEN FROM THE LZ.
