PROBLEM
To develop United Srates Army Psychological Operations doctrine concepts
organization and materiel to support US Army missions and responsibilities
during the period 1970-1975
21 (S-NOF O~~ GENERAL
bull The basic mission of the PSYOP organization is to plan and conduct PSYOP
in support of operations for which the US Army has responsibility and to
provide command and control administrative and logistical support and
operational supervision over organic and attached units
The problem of the amalgamation of PSYOP and CA in the G555 section is not addres sed in detail in the Basic Derivative Study of PSYOP-75 because of the lack of timely DA approval of this concept

3 ~ FINDINGS
a The use of aULomatic data processing equipment will provide a more
efficient and rapid means of storing and retrieving PSYOP intelligence
b Mobility of PSYOP will improve with the development of improved power
sources and the miniaturization of PSYOP equipment
c Studies indicate the feasibility and desirability of continuing
efforts to investigate mental conditioning and ideological reform of the
individual
d Television combines in one form many of the advantages of other PSYOP
bull media
e The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile
radio team will provide a capability to reach all audiences within the theater
and field army
f Because of the anticipated increase in low-intensity conflict a PSYOP
staff function for the battalion should be considered
g US Army PSYOP organization is capable of playing an increasingly
active role in supporting operations to prevent and control civi l disturbances
h US Army PSYOP resoucs ara also capable of assisting in civil defense
planning
i Favltrable audience reaction to PSYOP messages through subliminal
suggestion is possible

a The PSYOP organization will continue to rely on the Military
Intelligence (MI) organization to obtain the maj ority of information for PSYOP
b Revolutionary methods of influencing behavior is of critical importance
to the PSYOP effort
c The use of television in PSYOP should be developed further
d The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile
radio tean will j rrcraase the effectiveness of PSYOP programs
e A PSYOP staff function for the battalion is necessary during lowshy

bull f US Army PSYOP expertise and resources should be employed in preventing
and combating ci vil disturbance
g US Army PSYOP resources should be employed in support of civil defense

14)( IlQFGRNj- EMPLOYMFIT
a The increasing tre~d toward political restraints and considerations
imposed on comoat forces committed to all intensities of conflict requires an
increasing awareness on the part of all commanders of the psychological impact
of their operations This i s beet eccompJ ished by having a PSYOP staff
bull officer participate in the planning phase of all operations The assignment
of org~nic PSYOP staff elements to all levels of command down to brigade is
proposed
b Although current PSYOP concept is geared primarily to support tactical
operations the possibility of general war requires that VS Army PSYOP
organizations retain the c2pabiliLY and equipment to conduct strategic
operations

US forces the morale of the indigenous government and other similar matters
b At the theater level US Army PSYOP forces are under operational command
of the commander of the unified command With approval of this commander
PSYOP units may be placed under the operational control of other US military
service elements andmiddot civilian crganizations Command less operational control
of US Army PSYOP units is r otained by theater army Theater army headquarters

commander of the unified command to control and direct the total US PSYOP
effort il the theater in accordance lith the provisions of appropriate intershy
departmental agreements
e In the event the commander of the unified command elects not to
establish a joint theater PSYOP agency (or command) selected PSYOP elements
of the assigned PSYOP group are retained attheater level for conducting
strategic PSYOP other elements are assigned middotor attached to field army and
designated elements are retained by theater army

evasion and escape subversion guerrilla warfare and special operations It
concerns itself with explo i ting the military political psychological and
economic vulnerabilit ies of the enemy These operations may be covert (sponsor
concealed) clandestine (operation concealed) or overt (no attempt to conceal)
g PSYOP properly applied can creace unity maintain morale and add to
the determinacion of resiscalce forces it can develop sympathy for the
res istance and acceptance of their methods and objectives among uncommitted
segments of the population and it can Heaken the resolve of the enemy by
inducing fear and doubts as to the correctness or eventual success of lthe

human behavior intelligence on population acquires importance in addition to
the three traditional considerations of enemy weather and terrain Informashy
bulltion used in the development of PSYOP intelligence is divided into two
categories current data and area and background studies
2 Intelligence support of PSYOP requires special capabilities
in language cultural information and a familiarity with the principles of
behavioral science similar to those required for strategic intelligence support
3 Psychological operations units will require an increased
capability for research and analysis intelligence processing development of
propaganda content and the conduct of face-to-face PSYOP US Army specialists

PROBLEM
To develop United Srates Army Psychological Operations doctrine concepts
organization and materiel to support US Army missions and responsibilities
during the period 1970-1975
21 (S-NOF O~~ GENERAL
bull The basic mission of the PSYOP organization is to plan and conduct PSYOP
in support of operations for which the US Army has responsibility and to
provide command and control administrative and logistical support and
operational supervision over organic and attached units
The problem of the amalgamation of PSYOP and CA in the G555 section is not addres sed in detail in the Basic Derivative Study of PSYOP-75 because of the lack of timely DA approval of this concept

3 ~ FINDINGS
a The use of aULomatic data processing equipment will provide a more
efficient and rapid means of storing and retrieving PSYOP intelligence
b Mobility of PSYOP will improve with the development of improved power
sources and the miniaturization of PSYOP equipment
c Studies indicate the feasibility and desirability of continuing
efforts to investigate mental conditioning and ideological reform of the
individual
d Television combines in one form many of the advantages of other PSYOP
bull media
e The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile
radio team will provide a capability to reach all audiences within the theater
and field army
f Because of the anticipated increase in low-intensity conflict a PSYOP
staff function for the battalion should be considered
g US Army PSYOP organization is capable of playing an increasingly
active role in supporting operations to prevent and control civi l disturbances
h US Army PSYOP resoucs ara also capable of assisting in civil defense

a The PSYOP organization will continue to rely on the Military
Intelligence (MI) organization to obtain the maj ority of information for PSYOP
b Revolutionary methods of influencing behavior is of critical importance
to the PSYOP effort
c The use of television in PSYOP should be developed further
d The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile

14)( IlQFGRNj- EMPLOYMFIT
a The increasing tre~d toward political restraints and considerations
imposed on comoat forces committed to all intensities of conflict requires an
increasing awareness on the part of all commanders of the psychological impact
of their operations This i s beet eccompJ ished by having a PSYOP staff
bull officer participate in the planning phase of all operations The assignment
of org~nic PSYOP staff elements to all levels of command down to brigade is
proposed
b Although current PSYOP concept is geared primarily to support tactical
operations the possibility of general war requires that VS Army PSYOP

establish a joint theater PSYOP agency (or command) selected PSYOP elements
of the assigned PSYOP group are retained attheater level for conducting
strategic PSYOP other elements are assigned middotor attached to field army and

g PSYOP properly applied can creace unity maintain morale and add to
the determinacion of resiscalce forces it can develop sympathy for the
res istance and acceptance of their methods and objectives among uncommitted
segments of the population and it can Heaken the resolve of the enemy by

human behavior intelligence on population acquires importance in addition to
the three traditional considerations of enemy weather and terrain Informashy
bulltion used in the development of PSYOP intelligence is divided into two
categories current data and area and background studies
2 Intelligence support of PSYOP requires special capabilities
in language cultural information and a familiarity with the principles of
behavioral science similar to those required for strategic intelligence support
3 Psychological operations units will require an increased
capability for research and analysis intelligence processing development of
propaganda content and the conduct of face-to-face PSYOP US Army specialists

during the period 1970-1975
21 (S-NOF O~~ GENERAL
bull The basic mission of the PSYOP organization is to plan and conduct PSYOP
in support of operations for which the US Army has responsibility and to
provide command and control administrative and logistical support and
operational supervision over organic and attached units
The problem of the amalgamation of PSYOP and CA in the G555 section is not addres sed in detail in the Basic Derivative Study of PSYOP-75 because of the lack of timely DA approval of this concept

3 ~ FINDINGS
a The use of aULomatic data processing equipment will provide a more
efficient and rapid means of storing and retrieving PSYOP intelligence
b Mobility of PSYOP will improve with the development of improved power
sources and the miniaturization of PSYOP equipment
c Studies indicate the feasibility and desirability of continuing
efforts to investigate mental conditioning and ideological reform of the
individual
d Television combines in one form many of the advantages of other PSYOP
bull media
e The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile
radio team will provide a capability to reach all audiences within the theater
and field army
f Because of the anticipated increase in low-intensity conflict a PSYOP
staff function for the battalion should be considered
g US Army PSYOP organization is capable of playing an increasingly
active role in supporting operations to prevent and control civi l disturbances
h US Army PSYOP resoucs ara also capable of assisting in civil defense

i Favltrable audience reaction to PSYOP messages through subliminal
suggestion is possible

a The PSYOP organization will continue to rely on the Military
Intelligence (MI) organization to obtain the maj ority of information for PSYOP
b Revolutionary methods of influencing behavior is of critical importance
to the PSYOP effort
c The use of television in PSYOP should be developed further
d The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile
radio tean will j rrcraase the effectiveness of PSYOP programs
e A PSYOP staff function for the battalion is necessary during lowshy

a The increasing tre~d toward political restraints and considerations
imposed on comoat forces committed to all intensities of conflict requires an
increasing awareness on the part of all commanders of the psychological impact
of their operations This i s beet eccompJ ished by having a PSYOP staff
bull officer participate in the planning phase of all operations The assignment
of org~nic PSYOP staff elements to all levels of command down to brigade is
proposed
b Although current PSYOP concept is geared primarily to support tactical
operations the possibility of general war requires that VS Army PSYOP
organizations retain the c2pabiliLY and equipment to conduct strategic
operations

the determinacion of resiscalce forces it can develop sympathy for the
res istance and acceptance of their methods and objectives among uncommitted

human behavior intelligence on population acquires importance in addition to
the three traditional considerations of enemy weather and terrain Informashy
bulltion used in the development of PSYOP intelligence is divided into two
categories current data and area and background studies
2 Intelligence support of PSYOP requires special capabilities
in language cultural information and a familiarity with the principles of
behavioral science similar to those required for strategic intelligence support
3 Psychological operations units will require an increased
capability for research and analysis intelligence processing development of
propaganda content and the conduct of face-to-face PSYOP US Army specialists

PROBLEM
To develop United Srates Army Psychological Operations doctrine concepts
organization and materiel to support US Army missions and responsibilities
during the period 1970-1975
21 (S-NOF O~~ GENERAL
bull The basic mission of the PSYOP organization is to plan and conduct PSYOP
in support of operations for which the US Army has responsibility and to
provide command and control administrative and logistical support and
operational supervision over organic and attached units
The problem of the amalgamation of PSYOP and CA in the G555 section is not addres sed in detail in the Basic Derivative Study of PSYOP-75 because of the lack of timely DA approval of this concept

3 ~ FINDINGS
a The use of aULomatic data processing equipment will provide a more
efficient and rapid means of storing and retrieving PSYOP intelligence
b Mobility of PSYOP will improve with the development of improved power
sources and the miniaturization of PSYOP equipment
c Studies indicate the feasibility and desirability of continuing
efforts to investigate mental conditioning and ideological reform of the
individual
d Television combines in one form many of the advantages of other PSYOP
bull media
e The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile
radio team will provide a capability to reach all audiences within the theater
and field army
f Because of the anticipated increase in low-intensity conflict a PSYOP
staff function for the battalion should be considered
g US Army PSYOP organization is capable of playing an increasingly
active role in supporting operations to prevent and control civi l disturbances
h US Army PSYOP resoucs ara also capable of assisting in civil defense
planning
i Favltrable audience reaction to PSYOP messages through subliminal
suggestion is possible

a The PSYOP organization will continue to rely on the Military
Intelligence (MI) organization to obtain the maj ority of information for PSYOP
b Revolutionary methods of influencing behavior is of critical importance
to the PSYOP effort
c The use of television in PSYOP should be developed further
d The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile
radio tean will j rrcraase the effectiveness of PSYOP programs
e A PSYOP staff function for the battalion is necessary during lowshy

bull f US Army PSYOP expertise and resources should be employed in preventing
and combating ci vil disturbance
g US Army PSYOP resources should be employed in support of civil defense

14)( IlQFGRNj- EMPLOYMFIT
a The increasing tre~d toward political restraints and considerations
imposed on comoat forces committed to all intensities of conflict requires an
increasing awareness on the part of all commanders of the psychological impact
of their operations This i s beet eccompJ ished by having a PSYOP staff
bull officer participate in the planning phase of all operations The assignment
of org~nic PSYOP staff elements to all levels of command down to brigade is
proposed
b Although current PSYOP concept is geared primarily to support tactical
operations the possibility of general war requires that VS Army PSYOP
organizations retain the c2pabiliLY and equipment to conduct strategic
operations

of the commander of the unified command With approval of this commander
PSYOP units may be placed under the operational control of other US military
service elements andmiddot civilian crganizations Command less operational control
of US Army PSYOP units is r otained by theater army Theater army headquarters

bull d A joint theacer SYOP agency (or command) may be established by the
commander of the unified command to control and direct the total US PSYOP
effort il the theater in accordance lith the provisions of appropriate intershy
departmental agreements
e In the event the commander of the unified command elects not to
establish a joint theater PSYOP agency (or command) selected PSYOP elements
of the assigned PSYOP group are retained attheater level for conducting
strategic PSYOP other elements are assigned middotor attached to field army and
designated elements are retained by theater army

evasion and escape subversion guerrilla warfare and special operations It
concerns itself with explo i ting the military political psychological and
economic vulnerabilit ies of the enemy These operations may be covert (sponsor
concealed) clandestine (operation concealed) or overt (no attempt to conceal)
g PSYOP properly applied can creace unity maintain morale and add to
the determinacion of resiscalce forces it can develop sympathy for the
res istance and acceptance of their methods and objectives among uncommitted
segments of the population and it can Heaken the resolve of the enemy by
inducing fear and doubts as to the correctness or eventual success of lthe

human behavior intelligence on population acquires importance in addition to
the three traditional considerations of enemy weather and terrain Informashy
bulltion used in the development of PSYOP intelligence is divided into two
categories current data and area and background studies
2 Intelligence support of PSYOP requires special capabilities
in language cultural information and a familiarity with the principles of
behavioral science similar to those required for strategic intelligence support
3 Psychological operations units will require an increased
capability for research and analysis intelligence processing development of
propaganda content and the conduct of face-to-face PSYOP US Army specialists

PROBLEM
To develop United Srates Army Psychological Operations doctrine concepts
organization and materiel to support US Army missions and responsibilities
during the period 1970-1975
21 (S-NOF O~~ GENERAL
bull The basic mission of the PSYOP organization is to plan and conduct PSYOP
in support of operations for which the US Army has responsibility and to
provide command and control administrative and logistical support and
operational supervision over organic and attached units
The problem of the amalgamation of PSYOP and CA in the G555 section is not addres sed in detail in the Basic Derivative Study of PSYOP-75 because of the lack of timely DA approval of this concept

3 ~ FINDINGS
a The use of aULomatic data processing equipment will provide a more
efficient and rapid means of storing and retrieving PSYOP intelligence
b Mobility of PSYOP will improve with the development of improved power
sources and the miniaturization of PSYOP equipment
c Studies indicate the feasibility and desirability of continuing
efforts to investigate mental conditioning and ideological reform of the
individual
d Television combines in one form many of the advantages of other PSYOP
bull media
e The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile
radio team will provide a capability to reach all audiences within the theater
and field army
f Because of the anticipated increase in low-intensity conflict a PSYOP
staff function for the battalion should be considered
g US Army PSYOP organization is capable of playing an increasingly
active role in supporting operations to prevent and control civi l disturbances
h US Army PSYOP resoucs ara also capable of assisting in civil defense
planning
i Favltrable audience reaction to PSYOP messages through subliminal
suggestion is possible

a The PSYOP organization will continue to rely on the Military
Intelligence (MI) organization to obtain the maj ority of information for PSYOP
b Revolutionary methods of influencing behavior is of critical importance
to the PSYOP effort
c The use of television in PSYOP should be developed further
d The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile
radio tean will j rrcraase the effectiveness of PSYOP programs
e A PSYOP staff function for the battalion is necessary during lowshy

14)( IlQFGRNj- EMPLOYMFIT
a The increasing tre~d toward political restraints and considerations
imposed on comoat forces committed to all intensities of conflict requires an
increasing awareness on the part of all commanders of the psychological impact
of their operations This i s beet eccompJ ished by having a PSYOP staff
bull officer participate in the planning phase of all operations The assignment
of org~nic PSYOP staff elements to all levels of command down to brigade is
proposed
b Although current PSYOP concept is geared primarily to support tactical
operations the possibility of general war requires that VS Army PSYOP

establish a joint theater PSYOP agency (or command) selected PSYOP elements

g PSYOP properly applied can creace unity maintain morale and add to
the determinacion of resiscalce forces it can develop sympathy for the
res istance and acceptance of their methods and objectives among uncommitted
segments of the population and it can Heaken the resolve of the enemy by

human behavior intelligence on population acquires importance in addition to
the three traditional considerations of enemy weather and terrain Informashy
bulltion used in the development of PSYOP intelligence is divided into two
categories current data and area and background studies
2 Intelligence support of PSYOP requires special capabilities
in language cultural information and a familiarity with the principles of
behavioral science similar to those required for strategic intelligence support
3 Psychological operations units will require an increased
capability for research and analysis intelligence processing development of
propaganda content and the conduct of face-to-face PSYOP US Army specialists

PROBLEM
To develop United Srates Army Psychological Operations doctrine concepts
organization and materiel to support US Army missions and responsibilities
during the period 1970-1975
21 (S-NOF O~~ GENERAL
bull The basic mission of the PSYOP organization is to plan and conduct PSYOP
in support of operations for which the US Army has responsibility and to
provide command and control administrative and logistical support and
operational supervision over organic and attached units
The problem of the amalgamation of PSYOP and CA in the G555 section is not addres sed in detail in the Basic Derivative Study of PSYOP-75 because of the lack of timely DA approval of this concept

3 ~ FINDINGS
a The use of aULomatic data processing equipment will provide a more
efficient and rapid means of storing and retrieving PSYOP intelligence
b Mobility of PSYOP will improve with the development of improved power
sources and the miniaturization of PSYOP equipment
c Studies indicate the feasibility and desirability of continuing
efforts to investigate mental conditioning and ideological reform of the
individual
d Television combines in one form many of the advantages of other PSYOP
bull media
e The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile
radio team will provide a capability to reach all audiences within the theater
and field army
f Because of the anticipated increase in low-intensity conflict a PSYOP
staff function for the battalion should be considered
g US Army PSYOP organization is capable of playing an increasingly
active role in supporting operations to prevent and control civi l disturbances
h US Army PSYOP resoucs ara also capable of assisting in civil defense
planning
i Favltrable audience reaction to PSYOP messages through subliminal
suggestion is possible

a The PSYOP organization will continue to rely on the Military
Intelligence (MI) organization to obtain the maj ority of information for PSYOP
b Revolutionary methods of influencing behavior is of critical importance
to the PSYOP effort
c The use of television in PSYOP should be developed further
d The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile
radio tean will j rrcraase the effectiveness of PSYOP programs
e A PSYOP staff function for the battalion is necessary during lowshy

14)( IlQFGRNj- EMPLOYMFIT
a The increasing tre~d toward political restraints and considerations
imposed on comoat forces committed to all intensities of conflict requires an
increasing awareness on the part of all commanders of the psychological impact
of their operations This i s beet eccompJ ished by having a PSYOP staff
bull officer participate in the planning phase of all operations The assignment
of org~nic PSYOP staff elements to all levels of command down to brigade is
proposed
b Although current PSYOP concept is geared primarily to support tactical
operations the possibility of general war requires that VS Army PSYOP

establish a joint theater PSYOP agency (or command) selected PSYOP elements

g PSYOP properly applied can creace unity maintain morale and add to
the determinacion of resiscalce forces it can develop sympathy for the
res istance and acceptance of their methods and objectives among uncommitted

human behavior intelligence on population acquires importance in addition to
the three traditional considerations of enemy weather and terrain Informashy
bulltion used in the development of PSYOP intelligence is divided into two
categories current data and area and background studies
2 Intelligence support of PSYOP requires special capabilities
in language cultural information and a familiarity with the principles of
behavioral science similar to those required for strategic intelligence support
3 Psychological operations units will require an increased
capability for research and analysis intelligence processing development of
propaganda content and the conduct of face-to-face PSYOP US Army specialists

PROBLEM
To develop United Srates Army Psychological Operations doctrine concepts
organization and materiel to support US Army missions and responsibilities
during the period 1970-1975
21 (S-NOF O~~ GENERAL
bull The basic mission of the PSYOP organization is to plan and conduct PSYOP
in support of operations for which the US Army has responsibility and to
provide command and control administrative and logistical support and
operational supervision over organic and attached units
The problem of the amalgamation of PSYOP and CA in the G555 section is not addres sed in detail in the Basic Derivative Study of PSYOP-75 because of the lack of timely DA approval of this concept

3 ~ FINDINGS
a The use of aULomatic data processing equipment will provide a more
efficient and rapid means of storing and retrieving PSYOP intelligence
b Mobility of PSYOP will improve with the development of improved power
sources and the miniaturization of PSYOP equipment
c Studies indicate the feasibility and desirability of continuing
efforts to investigate mental conditioning and ideological reform of the
individual
d Television combines in one form many of the advantages of other PSYOP
bull media
e The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile
radio team will provide a capability to reach all audiences within the theater
and field army
f Because of the anticipated increase in low-intensity conflict a PSYOP
staff function for the battalion should be considered
g US Army PSYOP organization is capable of playing an increasingly
active role in supporting operations to prevent and control civi l disturbances
h US Army PSYOP resoucs ara also capable of assisting in civil defense

i Favltrable audience reaction to PSYOP messages through subliminal
suggestion is possible

a The PSYOP organization will continue to rely on the Military
Intelligence (MI) organization to obtain the maj ority of information for PSYOP
b Revolutionary methods of influencing behavior is of critical importance
to the PSYOP effort
c The use of television in PSYOP should be developed further
d The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile
radio tean will j rrcraase the effectiveness of PSYOP programs
e A PSYOP staff function for the battalion is necessary during lowshy

a The increasing tre~d toward political restraints and considerations
imposed on comoat forces committed to all intensities of conflict requires an
increasing awareness on the part of all commanders of the psychological impact

of org~nic PSYOP staff elements to all levels of command down to brigade is

human behavior intelligence on population acquires importance in addition to
the three traditional considerations of enemy weather and terrain Informashy
bulltion used in the development of PSYOP intelligence is divided into two
categories current data and area and background studies
2 Intelligence support of PSYOP requires special capabilities
in language cultural information and a familiarity with the principles of
behavioral science similar to those required for strategic intelligence support
3 Psychological operations units will require an increased
capability for research and analysis intelligence processing development of
propaganda content and the conduct of face-to-face PSYOP US Army specialists
will be needed to perform the va ious related functions of a broadening PSYOP

during the period 1970-1975
21 (S-NOF O~~ GENERAL
bull The basic mission of the PSYOP organization is to plan and conduct PSYOP
in support of operations for which the US Army has responsibility and to
provide command and control administrative and logistical support and
operational supervision over organic and attached units
The problem of the amalgamation of PSYOP and CA in the G555 section is not addres sed in detail in the Basic Derivative Study of PSYOP-75 because of the lack of timely DA approval of this concept

3 ~ FINDINGS
a The use of aULomatic data processing equipment will provide a more
efficient and rapid means of storing and retrieving PSYOP intelligence
b Mobility of PSYOP will improve with the development of improved power
sources and the miniaturization of PSYOP equipment
c Studies indicate the feasibility and desirability of continuing
efforts to investigate mental conditioning and ideological reform of the
individual
d Television combines in one form many of the advantages of other PSYOP
bull media
e The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile
radio team will provide a capability to reach all audiences within the theater
and field army
f Because of the anticipated increase in low-intensity conflict a PSYOP
staff function for the battalion should be considered
g US Army PSYOP organization is capable of playing an increasingly
active role in supporting operations to prevent and control civi l disturbances
h US Army PSYOP resoucs ara also capable of assisting in civil defense

i Favltrable audience reaction to PSYOP messages through subliminal
suggestion is possible

a The PSYOP organization will continue to rely on the Military
Intelligence (MI) organization to obtain the maj ority of information for PSYOP
b Revolutionary methods of influencing behavior is of critical importance
to the PSYOP effort
c The use of television in PSYOP should be developed further
d The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile
radio tean will j rrcraase the effectiveness of PSYOP programs
e A PSYOP staff function for the battalion is necessary during lowshy

imposed on comoat forces committed to all intensities of conflict requires an
increasing awareness on the part of all commanders of the psychological impact

of org~nic PSYOP staff elements to all levels of command down to brigade is
proposed

a The use of aULomatic data processing equipment will provide a more
efficient and rapid means of storing and retrieving PSYOP intelligence
b Mobility of PSYOP will improve with the development of improved power
sources and the miniaturization of PSYOP equipment
c Studies indicate the feasibility and desirability of continuing
efforts to investigate mental conditioning and ideological reform of the
individual
d Television combines in one form many of the advantages of other PSYOP
bull media
e The addition of a short wave radio transmitter to the current mobile
radio team will provide a capability to reach all audiences within the theater
and field army
f Because of the anticipated increase in low-intensity conflict a PSYOP
staff function for the battalion should be considered
g US Army PSYOP organization is capable of playing an increasingly
active role in supporting operations to prevent and control civi l disturbances

imposed on comoat forces committed to all intensities of conflict requires an
increasing awareness on the part of all commanders of the psychological impact
of their operations This i s beet eccompJ ished by having a PSYOP staff

of org~nic PSYOP staff elements to all levels of command down to brigade is

14)( IlQFGRNj- EMPLOYMFIT
a The increasing tre~d toward political restraints and considerations
imposed on comoat forces committed to all intensities of conflict requires an
increasing awareness on the part of all commanders of the psychological impact
of their operations This i s beet eccompJ ished by having a PSYOP staff
bull officer participate in the planning phase of all operations The assignment
of org~nic PSYOP staff elements to all levels of command down to brigade is
proposed
b Although current PSYOP concept is geared primarily to support tactical
operations the possibility of general war requires that VS Army PSYOP

e In the event the commander of the unified command elects not to
establish a joint theater PSYOP agency (or command) selected PSYOP elements
of the assigned PSYOP group are retained attheater level for conducting
strategic PSYOP other elements are assigned middotor attached to field army and

g PSYOP properly applied can creace unity maintain morale and add to
the determinacion of resiscalce forces it can develop sympathy for the
res istance and acceptance of their methods and objectives among uncommitted
segments of the population and it can Heaken the resolve of the enemy by

human behavior intelligence on population acquires importance in addition to
the three traditional considerations of enemy weather and terrain Informashy
bulltion used in the development of PSYOP intelligence is divided into two
categories current data and area and background studies
2 Intelligence support of PSYOP requires special capabilities
in language cultural information and a familiarity with the principles of
behavioral science similar to those required for strategic intelligence support
3 Psychological operations units will require an increased
capability for research and analysis intelligence processing development of
propaganda content and the conduct of face-to-face PSYOP US Army specialists

a The increasing tre~d toward political restraints and considerations
imposed on comoat forces committed to all intensities of conflict requires an
increasing awareness on the part of all commanders of the psychological impact
of their operations This i s beet eccompJ ished by having a PSYOP staff
bull officer participate in the planning phase of all operations The assignment
of org~nic PSYOP staff elements to all levels of command down to brigade is
proposed
b Although current PSYOP concept is geared primarily to support tactical
operations the possibility of general war requires that VS Army PSYOP

the determinacion of resiscalce forces it can develop sympathy for the

imposed on comoat forces committed to all intensities of conflict requires an
increasing awareness on the part of all commanders of the psychological impact

capability for research and analysis intelligence processing development of

human behavior intelligence on population acquires importance in addition to
the three traditional considerations of enemy weather and terrain Informashy
bulltion used in the development of PSYOP intelligence is divided into two
categories current data and area and background studies
2 Intelligence support of PSYOP requires special capabilities
in language cultural information and a familiarity with the principles of
behavioral science similar to those required for strategic intelligence support
3 Psychological operations units will require an increased
capability for research and analysis intelligence processing development of
propaganda content and the conduct of face-to-face PSYOP US Army specialists
will be needed to perform the va ious related functions of a broadening PSYOP
