Communication/Electronics
- Status of Equipment
The Communication/electronics equipment of the Battalion remains in a reasonably high state of combat readiness. Due to the continuing lack of replacement and spare parts such as the handset H-33, the antennae AT-271 and 272, silver zinc monoblocks and electrolyte and electronic tube 5678, the desired level of readiness has not been maintained.
- Operations and Training
During the month a new trunk line from the Company C switchboard to the new CAC-11 at Phu Loc was installed. Training emphasis has been placed on radio operator proficiency and the techniques of laying field wire in the assault.
