This manual describes intelligence, psychological considerations, infiltration, air operations, amphibious operations, communications, logistics, demolitions, Special Forces field maneuvers, medical aspects and other techniques."
This manual provided operational guidance to Special Forces advisors, MACV-SOG recon teams and other clandestine Allied troops in Vietnam.
