The Soviet Union notified Washington that two Soviet teams will inspect U.S. missile sites in Britain to verify terms of the Intermediate-range Nuclear Forces Treaty. Cmdr. Kendall Pease, spokesman for the U.S. On-Site Inspection Agency, said the Soviet teams will arrive at Greenham-Common Royal Air Force Base north of London today. The only other site in Britain subject to inspection under the treaty is at the Molesworth Royal Air Force Base. Two teams of U.S. inspectors have gone to East Germany to check on Soviet missile bases there.
