                           INTELLIGENCE

    TOPIC:   Reconnaissance.

    OBSERVATION:

    -   Any attack or raid must be based on extremely detailed
intelligence due to lack of natural control measures.

    -   Rifle companies must dedicate extremely long time
periods for recon.   Movement is slow.

    -   Prior route recon and marking are key to main supply
route success.

    -   Route recons to alternate and supplementary positions
are very important because of several small cliffs and sand
traps.

    -   Terrain association is next to impossible because of
poor maps and shifting sand.

    -   Recon every movement, no matter how short.

    -   Dig in Ground Surveillance Radar (GSRts) so that only
the screen is visible.

     -   GSR's can be used effectively to conduct link-up
operations.
