Communications Research and Development Data Collection Program in the Republic of Vietnam. Appendix B
Abstract
Appendix B to the third Semiannual Report of the 'Communications Research and Development Data Collection Program in the Republic of Vietnam' contains selected summaries from interviews with U.S. and Free World Forces units conducted by team members. It is not meant to stand alone but to be an integral part of the basic report which is being published separately so that it may be unclassified. The abstract of the basic report is as follows: This paper summarizes the third six-month period of research by the Booz Allen Southeast Asia Operations field team in support of the Advanced Research Projects Agency small unit tactical communications project. It presents an initial analysis of Vietnamese patrol and base practices and discusses the on- going program of communications data collection among U.S. and Free World Forces units. It describes communications practices in use by some of these units and reports findings to date in the area of path physiography, radio frequency, and dialect analyses. It recommends the use of directional-type antennas for tactical very high frequency and describes a simple, lightweight concept which could be used by tactical units.
