      88's attacked Fuka main landing ground, a petrol dump; fuel train 
      and service ammunition train being destroyed and aerodrome rendered 
      unserviceable. 5. Intelligence. Gliders. There are indications 
      of increase in German Glider production. Decoen in Belgium (one 
      of the largest furniture manufacturers in Europe) is reported 
      to have Switched from making hutments to building wings for gliders 
      and dummy aeroplanes. Production seems to be mainly concentrated 
      on wooden wing type used in Crete, but recently a larger all 
      metal type, capable of carrying 50 men, or field guns or light 
                  tanks, has been made as well.
