Reference your five seven three third it is not possible for local pursuit to intercept hostile aviation at a distance of two hundred miles from pursuit bases. There was no notice of attack from our detector system. Fow AWS dispositions see my short title in AWS one to Chief of Staff. There are no installations of AWS system now installed in Iceland that could have picked up indication of this attack from the direction it Tas made. Radio station attacked was British and only recently installed. U S Army RDF station being erected is six miles to the east thereof. Believe the increased activity of German aviation on north and east coasts of :celand probably caused by five four four naught movement and Russian convoy rating. One flight of pursuit will shortly be dispatched to Melwerdi. Present pursuit forces are not adequate for dispersal to all parts of Iceland. Lack of aviation, anti aircraft and other ground forces enumberated in my short title letter INDKEP precludes and chance of complete interference with hostile air. reconnaissance and attacks.
