"It was as though a million liters of gasoline had been dumped by enemy planes and set afire for a raging inferno." At once, Miyoshi set out for his house. He found himself wandering through an inferno never before seen by man, peopled by the dead and maimed, the terribly burned crying out for death.

Just beyond the SA-2s, and outside the 20-mile swath west of Suez, at least two SA3 batteries were emplaced. According to Bar-Lev -and Washington intelligence sources agree-both batteries are close enough to protect some of the more exposed SA-2s and restrict Israeli jets.
