G-2 PERIODIC REPORT
From: 220800/I Nov 48
To : 230800/I Nov 48
Additional reports of villages burning on CHEJU DO (see also (W/S #165, page 11 and W/S #166, page 9) indicate that communist raiders have added the burning of villages to their program of terrorism and ruin. Mention in several of the reports that Constabulary were observed near the villages which were burning, and one statement that men in constabulary uniform were seen setting fires, opened the possibility that the constabulary, rather than the raiders, had adopted new tactics.
An investigation was made of this possibility. The Constabulary regimental commander on CHEJU-DO denied emphatically that his men are guilty, and a police chief reported definitely seeing raiders setting fires. The wearing of constabulary uniforms by raiders has been reported before.
