...Alliance-Reagan and Mitterrand and Trudeau, the Queen of The Netherlands, the King of the Belgians-will assemble for the ceremonies before some of them go on to an economic summit in London. They will fly in helicopters over the famous beaches-Omaha, Utah and the rest. They will inspect the surf through which the invaders struggled 40 years ago, young amphibians buffeted by waves and torn by crossfires. Their landfall, in a chaos of metal and smoke and dead bodies, began the end of the thousand-year Reich...
...America must maintain "a limited retaliatory capability of its own, until we achieve an effective ban." In fact, while negotiations proceed, Reagan plans to go ahead and modernize the U.S. chemical arsenal, which has been in mothballs since 1969. In addition, the U.S will insist on the right to inspect for Soviet chemical weapons not only on "declared sites," where they are known to be manufactured, but anywhere it suspects they might be made.

Painted dull gray, with small black letters identifying them as U.S. Army property, the aircraft bristled with electronic equipment. Despite the official wall of secrecy, off-duty members of the 224th, drinking beer in a bar at the nearby city...
...internal corruption: Party organizations are empowered to inspect the work of the management. Making wide use of criticism and selfcriticism, they struggle with determination against red tape, parochialism, infractions of the law and labor discipline, and carry out measures to end mismanagement and extravagance. It must be confessed that some rank-and-file party members and leading executives are prone to be generous at government expense. Such "philanthropists" dip their hands into the public pocket themselves and are indifferent to embezzlement of public property by others. They cause grave harm to Communist construction, of course, but they...
