Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

The purpose of this manual is to provide a compendium of techniques
and procedures used by reconnaissance teams (RTs). The success of
any recon operation depends on the ability of the unit to develop
its own procedures and to adapt and exploit those which prove
successful. Ultimately, success depends on the motivation and
training of the RT. This manual will provide an introduction to the
required training and a basis for continuation of training. While
no technique represents the final answer, those described here have
been proven successful in several years of Recondo-style
operations. To the beginner, this manual will serve as a summary of
the techniques he must master; to the "old timer," it will be a
refresher and review. There is only one type of recon man that has
stopped learning recon - the dead type. This manual is directed
only towards RT employment. Therefore, always keep in mind that the
tactics and techniques described are directed towards one goal -
the collection of intelligence. The patrolling tactics, insertion
techniques, communications, etc. are only a means to accomplish
that end. Developed for use at Recondo (Recon Commando) schools by
the US Army Institute for Military Assistance in 1970 as a means to
capture the operational knowledge of Studies and Observation Group
Recon Teams from Command & Control North, Central and South. It
contains information very difficult to find elsewhere, much of it
presented in the form of "lessons learned" from operations in
Vietnam. Presented in Special Operations Press' distinctive ERDL
camouflage cover, denoting a Vietnam-era publication, this edition
is an easy-to-read 6 x 9 inch perfect-bound paperback printed on
first quality paper in the USA.
Organized religion has played a significant role in warfare
throughout history. From the time Moses led the Israelites out of
Egypt into the new Promised Land until 2001 and the undertaking of
the Global War on Terrorism, religion in one form or fashion has
impacted the individual soldier. The United States' Civil War from
1861 to 1865 was no different. The purpose of this thesis is to
look at the events leading up to the Civil War and the conflict
itself from the viewpoint of the Southern Baptist denomination.
Specifically, the thesis focuses on the reasons for the creation of
the Southern Baptist Convention, as well as examines how the
denomination supported the war effort. It looks at the wide range
of individual contributions of the denomination's chaplains,
missionaries, evangelists and colporteurs. It also details how
important the use of religious tracts were in ministering to
soldiers. As we continue our Global War on Terrorism, the
information contained within this paper should serve as a reminder
to those men and women at the Southern Baptist Seminaries that
religious service to the army is still necessary and that it comes
in many forms. As far as the human dimension and the spiritual
fitness of soldiers are concerned, what worked in 1863 is still
applicable in 2003.
