LESSONS Learned, Headquarters, 101st Airborne Division

Abstract

During the reporting period, a major portion of the division's assets were placed in support of US/GVN combined operations and training to upgrade the effectiveness of GVN forces; to seek out and destroy VC/NVA forces; to interdict enemy base areas and infiltration routes; to detect, capture, or destroy members of the local Viet Cong infrastructure and their sympathizers; to disrupt routes of supply between mountain base camps and rice producing lowlands and population centers; and to support the Thua Thien Province Accelerated Pacification Program. During the latter part of the reporting period, division forces were repositioned in preparation for quick reaction to enemy attempts to harass the populated lowland areas during the Tet holiday period.
