1st Cav Div Reg 525-2 a. Unit S-2's, at both batallion and brigade levels, are

responsible for the TARABS effort within their unit's area of responsibility. b. Units should utilize organic, attached, and supporting

aircraft to conduct aerial reconnaissance of their own areas whenever possible. c. Aerial reconnaissance requirements not within a unit's

capability are submitted as TARABS requests to the G-2 Air. These requests may be either preplanned or immediate depending on the urgency of the mission. (1) Preplanned Requests: (a) Preplanned requests are submitted to meet an-

ticipated requirements for aerial surveillance or reconnaissance missions to collect needed intelligence information. (b) Requests for preplanned aerial reconnaissance

will be submitted to the G-2 Air, through channels, by the most expeditious means, by 1400 hours the day prior to the mission, (i.e., a preplanned mission scheduled for 1300 hours 2 July will be submitted by 1400 hours 1 July).

1st Cav Div Reg 525-2 (d) Upon receiving the request the G-2 Air will

evaluate it as to TOT (Time on Target), type sensor to be employed, area to be covered, and desired product. If the G-2

Air makes any changes to the original request, the requesting unit will be notified and a reason will be given for the changes. (e) The G-2 Air further consolidates as many re-

quests as possible into single missions to avoid duplication and to conserve available sorties. (2) Immediate Requests: (a) Immediate requests are submitted to meet un-

forseen requirements for intelligence of immediate tactival value. (b) Requests for immediate aerial reconnaissance

can be submitted anytime, over the Air Force Air Request Net directly to the Direct Air Support Center (DASC). The request should

be submitted at least 30 minutes prior to desired TOT. (c) Requests are submitted using the format in

USTRICOM FORM 103, January 1968, (Joint Tactical Air Reconnaissance! Surveillance Request), (See Appendix 4, B-4-9 ). In submitting

the request, only the paragraph identifying letters and pertinent data need be transmitted, (i.e., Paragraph 2, H).

(d)

As the request is submitted over the Air Force

Air Request Net to the DASC, the Air Liaison Officers (ALO) at brigade and division monitor the net and coordinate with the S2/G2 Air, who will approve or disapprove the request. 1 Approval will be indicated by an acknowledge-

may be considered as the operational exposure guide for that particular unit.

Q+)

Categories of exposure: Radiation status categories are based on previous

exposure to radiation. Reclassification of units from one category to a less serious one is done by-the commander upon advice of the surgeon after ample observation of the actual state of health of the exposed personnel has been made. All exposures to radiation are considered to be total body and simply additive. recovery from radiation injury. The operational exposure guide established by the commander can be any number in the risk range appropriate to the units mission and radiation status and includes exposure to all predictable initial and residual radiation. Risk levels are graduated within each status category in order to provide more stringent criteria as the total radiation dose accumulated becomes serious. No allowance is made for body

to facilitate message distribution, duplication, and office or record functions. If a message center is installed within a

signal center, it will normally be co-located with the commcenter.

The pathfinder detachment and the aviation unit are designed

to support the tactical operations of the ground unit commander. Landing zones may be operated within the objective- if sufficient pathfinder personnel and equipment are available. c. The landing plan must support the aircraft unloading plan;

personnel, supplies and equipment must be rapidly cleared from the landing and parking areas in order to accomplish this. Tentative

unloading and assembly areas are selected during the aerial reconnaissance of the landing zones. Initially, the landing (unloading)

areas are selected by the aviation commander based on the size, shape anc- condition of the LZ. The ground commanders will select the

assembly points for their respective personnel.

After the initial

lift, the pathfinders will designate exact unloading and assembly points based on a ground reconnaissance of the LZ. The aircraft

available to set up and organize a PZ whenever an extraction is required. Intermediate landing zones may be also be established

to effect resupply or medical-evacuation. g. Whenever the ground force is to be extracted from a PZ

and emplaced into a new objective area, the pathfinder team can be split, half of the team going with the initial elements of the airmobile force to the new landing zone, and the remaining half staying in the PZ until the last elements of the ground force is extracted. This will insure almost continuous com-

munications between the elements in both the PZ and LZ and the aviation unit performing the lift. h. Improvement of LZ(s) is continuous and must be carefully

supervised by the pathfinders

to insure that as many hazards and

obstacles as possible are removed and that no new ones, such as radio antennas, are placed in or near the aircr^'t landing sites. Pioneer work is normally accomplished by the supported ground unit or their ogranic engineer elements. Time fuses should not be

used for demolition work or removal of obstacles in areas where helicopters are apt to fly.

will be a Case 4+50 bulldozer to be used to clear fields of fire and to prepare the howitzer positions. Next, the Caterpillar
