World War II pilots
to gather in Atlanta
ATLANTA (UPI) — A group
of former World War II combat
pilots will gather here this
weekend to relive memories of
bombing missions in the Euro
pean and Pacific theaters.
Members of the P 47 Thunder
bolt Pilots Association, who
share a devotion to a plane
they have dubbed “the jug”
because of its shape, have
invited more than 300 guests
from all over the nation to
participate in the group’s 14th
annual reunion May 2-4.
“The P 47 was known as the
jug because it looked like a jug,
but it got you there and got you
back,” said Bob Powell of
Atlanta, chairman of the
reunion.
“It was just amazing how
badly some of those planes got
shot up and still could make it
back to base.’’
The Thunderbolt, mainly used
as a defensive aircraft to
protect the huge sorties of Bl7s,
was often referred to as “little
friend,” while the 817 was
called “big friend.”
“Nowadays, radar spots the
enemy aircraft and sends a
heat-seeking missile up its
tail,” said Powell, who had four
confirmed victories during the
war. “But during World War II
the combat was more hand-to
hand. We think of ourselves as
sort of the knights of yore,
jousting with each other in the
skies.”
The legendary Robert S.
Johnson, the fourth-ranking
fighter pilot ace in U.S.
aviation history and now a New
York City insurance executive,
is among the invited guests and
may attend the reunion if the
health of his ill mother permits,
Powell said.
Johnson shot down 28 Nazi
planes in 11 months during
World War 11, and his uniforms
and medals are on display at
the Air Force Museum in
Dayton, Ohio.
He was the first pilot to
surpass Capt. Eddie Ricken
backer’s record of 26 victories.
Johnson earned his ace’s rank
while flying for the 56th Fighter
Group of the Bth Air Force
under the command of Col.
Hubert Zemke.
A group of women who flew
the P47s from the Republic
Aviation factories to combat
bases also have been invited.
Among the women, former
members of the Womens Army
Service Pilots (WASPS), are
Evelyn L. Trammell, an
Atlanta buinesswoman, and
Katherine Strehle, chief pilot at
the Opa Locka Air Service in
Opa Locka, Fla.
Cambodia
officers
at Benning
FT. BENNING, Ga. (UPI) -
The U.S. State Department and
the Cambodian embassy will
decide the status of 28
Cambodian officers who were
training at the U.S. Army
Infantry School here when their
country fell to the Communists.
The Pentagon said Wednes
day there are 127 Cambodian
and 83 South Vietnamese
soldiers, most of them officers,
at military bases in the United
States.
The Cambodians at Ft.
Benning range in rank from
lieutenant to major, a post
information officer said. Nine
of them are in the basic officer
course, 13 are in advanced
officer’s study, which is gener
ally for captains, and two are
in a mortar training.
An unidentified Pentagon
spokesman said the “awkward”
decision on what to do with the
soldiers will be “made on an
individual basis depending on
their requests through their
embassies.”
“The subject hasn’t been
resolved,” the spokesman said.
“It is being worked out (by the
State Department and - the
embassies).”
Military officials here and in
Washington say the aliens
probably can apply for asylum
and refugee status through
their embassies. Also, they
could simply remain in their
school programs until comple
tion or until they are given new
orders by the Communist
governments.

Prisoners want
warden to stay
MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga.
(UPI) — Female inmates at
the Georgia Rehabilitation Cen
ter want Warden Rini Bartlett
to stay.
Mrs. Bartlett resigned her
post recently after a dispute
with Sen. Culver Kidd, D-
Milledgeville. Mrs. Bartlett,
who will step down June 15,
recently fired prison matron
Linda Phillips for allegedly
sleeping on the job, and Kidd
objected.
About 125 inmates staged a
peaceful lunch-time protest
Wednesday on Mrs. Bartlett’s
behalf, and another protest was
planned for today.
“We *ant the public to know
our reasons for wanting Rini
Bartlett to remain as superin
tendent,” the inmates said in a
statement. “We have seen this
institution grow towards new
horizons under her leadership.
She shows that she cares. When
she goes, so does rehabilita
tion.”
Dr. Allen Ault, head of the
State Department of Offender
Rehabilitation, has named Clay
McElroy, a male education
supervisor at Reidsville State
Prison, as Mrs. Bartlett’s
successor.
Warden Bartlett said that the
prisoners “want a woman in
charge so that they can have
total communication in areas of
health, hygiene and children
and family problems. They
want general identity with a
woman.”
Kidd, however, agrees with
Ault that a man ought to be in
charge.
“If there were a male
warden, things would be alot
better out there,” Kidd said.
Mrs. Bartlett says Kidd is
using “pressure tactics de
signed to appeal to his
constituents.”

Kidd sums up the dispute
over Mrs. Phillips firing this
way:
“Mrs. Phillips contends that
she was not sleeping on the
job,” he said. “I called Warden
Bartlett to urge that Mrs.
Phillips, an employe of five
years, be reinstated. Mrs.
Bartlett refused.”
“When an appeal before the

state Merit System was sche
duled for Mrs. Phillips, I wrote
a letter on her behalf to the
prison board of directors.”
Mrs. Bartlett’s version:
“The warden should have the
power to hire and fire. Sleeping
on the job is a serious offense.
“If the merit system board
rules that Mrs. Phillips should
be reinstated, then she will be,”
she said.
