Games prepare for WWIII Almost any joint can become arthritic. Rheumatoid arthritis, often chronic is inflammatory, with swelling occuring in the soft tissues that line the joint. Osteoarthritis, a wear and tear disease, is signaled by degenera tion of bone and cartilage. Maneuvers not for fun There is no known cure for most forms of arthritis, so doc tors try to relieve the pain and swelling. The most frequently prescribed drug is aspirin, but large doses often create other problems like stomach ulcers. United Press International WERTHEIM, West Germany — This year’s NATO maneuv ers — Western civilization’s annual military ritual — were more than just harmless war- games. For one thing, the series of exercises — each with a myste rious code name and practicing everything from shipping heavy combat equipment to dropping paratroopers across the Atlantic — came against a backdrop of stress within the alliance and ris ing political discontent in Europe. For another, there was wear and tear on t he military and civi lian populace: Preliminary tal lies placed the toll at 16 dead and more than 100 injured, with damages — held down by good weather — running over $ 1 mil lion a day. “We have always had difficul ty within the alliance: This is natural with 16 nations,” said NATO Secretary General Joseph Lunds, a wry veteran of decades in Dutch politics. “There has been an erosion of public support for the utility of the alliance. The governments, as distinct from public opinion, are behind it.” The object was to practice for World War III — a Warsaw Pact invasion along the south shore of the Baltic, through central Europe and along the north shore of the Mediterranean. The exercises presented the Warsaw Pact strategically with an acknowledged picture of cohesion and solidarity, but for dog soldiers on the ground, the wargames were a series of grind ing minute-to-minute hassles and bewildering daily changes. “Em getting too old for this,” said one U.S. Marine, exhausted after an all-night landing in De nmark. “I’ll be 20 next week.” The wargame preparations began in April, with staffs in the Pentagon and major U.S. and European commands putting together organization charts, timetables, tonnage estimates, and shipping and flight sche dules, in an effort to mesh the resources of armies, navies and air forces from 16 nations. Maneuvers actually began in August, with U.S. and Canadian naval forces practicing convoys, minesweeping and surface en gagements in the North Atlantic. 1 While that was going on, exer cise REFORGER (Return of Forces to Germany) moved 19,000 troops and their equip ment by air and sea to Belgium and the Netherlands, thery moved on toward battlefields" across Europe.
