Abstract

This special CHECO Report, "The Cambodian Campaign, 1 July - 31 October 1970," is the second one devoted to operations in that country. The first one, dated 1 September 1970 and entitled, "The Cambodian Campaign, 29 April - 30 June 1970," furnishes important background for reading the present report. Following this Foreword, Chapter I is a broad introduction to the campaign and focuses on the general use of tactical air power in Cambodia. Chapter II continues in the same vein but gives more details to broaden the reader's background. Chapter III briefly analyzes the contributions of the Cambodian, Vietnamese, and Thai Air Forces. Chapter IV explores some of the more significant applications of U.S. tactical air. Chapter V then examines some of the problems encountered in the communications and control areas. Chapter VI highlights two particular problem areas of the Cambodian Air Force- maintenance and munitions. Lastly, Chapter VII presents some brief concluding remarks. The reader is advised that there are some extremely sensitive areas that are not discussed anywhere in this report.
