Defensive Drill on Island - A Chinese nationalist mortar squad fires a round during recent training session on one of the nationalist- held Tachen island group. The islands, some 200 miles north of Formosa and 14 miles off the Chinese Mainland, have been the target of attacks by the Chinese reds. All-out efforts are being made on the islands to prepare for future attacks. December 05, 1954. (Photo by Associated Press Photo).
