"The Khrushchev revisionists assert that nuclear weapons and strategic rocket units are decisive while conventional forces are insignificant, and that a militia is just a heap of human flesh. For ridiculous reasons such as these, they oppose the mobilization of and reliance on the masses in the socialist countries to get prepared to use people's war against imperialist aggression.

"The Khrushchev revisionists maintain that a single spark in any part of the globe may touch off a world nuclear conflagration and bring destruction to mankind. If this were true, our planet world would have been destroyed time and time again.

"The Khrushchev revisionists claim that if their general line of 'peaceful coexistence, peaceful transition, and peaceful competition' is followed, the oppressed will be liberated and a 'world without weapons, without armed forces, and without wars' will come into being. . . . The essence of the general line of the Khrushchev revisionists is nothing other than the demand that all the oppressed peoples and nations and all the countries which have won independence should lay down their arms and place themselves at the mercy of the U.S. imperialists and their lackeys who are armed to the teeth.

". . . . Subscribing to this imperialist philosophy, the Khrushchev revisionists shout at the Chinese people standing in the forefront of the fight for world peace: 'you are bellicose'. . . . The Khrushchev revisionists regard imperialists like Kennedy and Johnson as 'sensible' and describe us together with all those who dare to carry out armed defense against imperialist aggression as 'bellicose'. This has revealed the Khrushchev revisionists in their true color as the accomplices of imperialist gangsters.

The sacrifice of a small number of people in revolutionary wars is repaid by security for whole nations, whole countries and even the whole of mankind; temporary suffering is repaid by lasting or even perpetual peace and happiness. War can temper the people and push history forward. In this sense, war is a great school.

"The struggle of the Vietnamese people against U.S. aggression and for national salvation is now the focus of the struggle of the people of the world against U.S. aggression."

311 in the present structure; 16 in the proposed structure, including 3 brigade forces
beginning in fiscal year 1966.

In the present structure, 18,500 overstrength spaces were required to bring ARNG
elements of the Selected Reserve Force to 100 percent strength; all spaces required to
bring USAR elements to 100 percent were obtained by inactivating reinforcing Reserve
units. In the proposed structure, 30,000 overstrength spaces will be required to bring
elements of the Seledted Reserve Force from the 80 percent basic manning level to 100
percent strength.

Actual deployment is dependent on the availability of equipment, filler personnel
and activation, manning and training of necessary support forces.

1 The Selected Reserve Force (3 divisions, 6 brigades, and support forces, all manned
at 100 percent) is drawn from the categories below as follows:
