FM 31-1 (TEST) CHAPTER 1 GENERAL 1 -1. (U) Purpose The purpose of this manual is to provide employment techniques, command and control concepts, and a ready equipment reference for elements directly responsible for the emplacement and monitoring of unattended ground sensors (UGS's). See appendix A for references. 1-2. (U) Scope a. The overall concept of employment for UGS's is for worldwide application; however, this manual will address only Phase III equipment in the SEA environment. The guidance published herein will require updating at such time as the sensor equipment is redesigned to fulfill worldwide requirements. Major considerations for such redesign are tempera- ture extremes, precipitation, terrain variations, soil conditions, humidity, vegetation, indigenous popula- tion, and electronic environment.
