It is based on the teach- ings of Christ. Few people in this country have the name passion for democracy as the communists have for communism. This feeling, call- ed ideological warfare in national defence language, is one of the current problems, and has been going on for over 25 years. It aris- es from a lack of personal respon- sibility and is prevalent among the officer candidates, as well as other enlistments. "All air crew are commissioned ranke and the candidates are re- cent school graduates, therefore being quite young. Because of their ages, it. is sometimes difficult to make these boys, fresh from school, well-rounded officers. They lack the:necessary experience and personal responsibility required of good officers. To overcome these traits, the Air Force teaches from personal contact and example." As visual education is consider- ed one of the most effective means of teadifirig, W/C. Burbank said that tllms •were used by the Air Fordo as a means of instilling in candidates the value of assuming personal responsibility in the af- fairs of their COuntry. Personal responsibility was the weapon to be used in the fight against com- munism and for everlasting peace. Following his remarks, W/C.
