Lessons Learned, (Headquarters, 2d Brigade (Prov)(Sep),)25th Infantry Division

Abstract

The quarter from 1 August to 31 October 1970 was marked by a generally low level of activity as enemy units suffered acute supply shortages. These supply shortages were a direct result of the highly successful Cambodian operations undertaken by US and Vietnamese units in May and June of 1970. Continued emphasis was placed on upgrading ARVN/RF/PF forces as units of the 25th Infantry Division emphasized combined operations with those indigenous forces and conducted extensive training programs designed to increase tactics and weapons skills. This intensive training program was conducted to insure the success of the Government of Vietnam (GVN) pacification program by providing local villages and hamlets protection against VC guerrilla activity and to pave the way for the redeployment of US troops as part of the continuing Vietnamization of the war.
