amount of your modified AGI. For 2011, I believe the phase-out begins at $169,000 (not $159,000) and ends at $179,000 (not $169,000). —Lt. Col. Edward Kamolz, USAF-Ret. Escondido, Calif.


Capt. Bud Schneeweis, USCG-Ret., CFP®, replies: You’re right. The AGI limits in the second paragraph should be $169,000-$179,000. Another reader also noted the $100,000 AGI limit for converting a traditional IRA to a Roth IRA was eliminated for tax year 2010 and beyond.


The statement that the invasion of North Africa Nov. 8, 1942, put “the Americans on the offensive for the first time in World War II” [Pages of History, November 2011] is, of course, false. There were a number of of- fenses by U.S. forces prior to this. For example, from June 4-7, 1942, the Midway campaign saw the U.S. Navy go on the offensive, sinking four Jap- anese fleet carriers. On Aug. 7, 1942, Operation Watchtower began with U.S. Marines landing on Guadalcanal. —Lt. Col. Marc Rebhun, USAF-Ret via email

The Sea-Based X-Band Radar platform operates from a twin-hulled ship in the Pa- cific Ocean and can spot tiny objects in space beyond 1,000 miles. It is currently (late October 2011) docked in Pearl Harbor for routine main- tenance but usually operates in the vicinity of the Aleutian Islands. —Lt. Col. Frank Genadio, USAF-Ret. Kapolei, Hawaii
