                            MANEUVE R

    TOPIC:   Driver's training classes.

    OBSERVATION:  Give driver training classes on bow to drive
in the sand it's not as easy as you think - the sand varies
from chalk powder to rock gravel.  It is an absolute necessity
to deflate tires when driving in loose sand.

    VIEWER NOTES:


    TOPIC:   Maneuvering in the desert.

    OBSERVATION:

    -   Terrain requires wide dispersion.  Takes much longer to
fire and maneuver on contact.

    -   Terrain is seldom completely flat. Cover and
concealment is  available from direct fire.

    -   Dismounted movement is best concealed during limited
visibility.   Movement is extraordinarily visible during
daylight.

    -   Difficult to mass supporting fires in excess of
         m in limited visibility.

    -   Night observation devices very effective on raid
maneuvers.

    -   More 1:5~,~~O maps are needed.  Barely enough to get
down to company or battery level.

    -   TOWs must be massed to make a difference.

    -   Except for security for raids, Infantry without
transportation is of little vaije.

    -   Day land navigation in the desert Is hard; night land
navigation is extremely difficult.
