Capt. Limbrick said. ~~.

“I'm furious when I think of
the money that was wasted.”

‘was no good in the first place.”
It couldn't distinguish between
aircraft and de coys and it was
built too far south.

“I opposed it from the start
but was pushed into it,” he said.

The. Mid-Canada line when
built was only an experiment, he
said, while radar was proven.

“Tf anything stinks to high
heaven, ‘this is it,” Group Capt.
Limbrick said.

The Mid-Canada line was paid

the cost of Pinetree and Canada
one-third. The U.S. financed
