Jan. 16, 1963 - V Bomber crews taught Winter Survival: Raf V Bomber crews and fighter pilots who between them have cost the British tax - payer some ?3 millions to train have recently been on a course deep in the forests of Bavaria where they have been learning the art of survival under arctic conditions. The H.Q. of the training has been the village of Bad Bad Kohlgrub, 90 miles from Munich. From there they have struck out deep into the forest around, to learn its lore to trap to kill and to make use of the skins of the dead animals to make gloves, socks and other necessary things.
