Senior Officer Debriefing Report: II Field Force Vietnam Artillery, Period 21 November 1969 to 8 May 1970

Abstract

Although these observations relate, in large measure, to the operational aspects of artillery employment, they also correlate the importance of logistic readiness, continuous training, and an efficient unit administration to the conduct of operations in a combat environment. Increased tactical mobility of heavy artillery; the design, construction and employment of airmobile fire direction centers; improved survey operations; and aspects of the artillery Vietnamization program are dealt with in detail. Overviews of major tactical operations are presented from an artillery point of view, with emphasis upon artillery lessons learned.
