About

1, FM 31-20 CHAPTER 3 PSYCHOLOGICAL OPERATIONS IN SUPPORT OF UNCONVENTIONAL WARFARE Section I. GENERAL 3-1. General a. Unconventional warfare operations are dependent, in varying degrees, on a successful I'SYOl* campaign. PSYOF, properly applied, can create unity, maintain morale, and add to the determination of resistance forces. It can develop sympathy for the resistance and acceptance of its methods and objectives among uncommitted segments of the population by introducing doubts as to the correctness of eventual success of the enemy. b. US military personnel operating within the UW environment must have a thorough knowledge of the national or regional characteristics of the social, economic, political, and cultural aspects of the populace.
