This weekly summary lists the air and naval order of
battle imaged on photography covering North Vietnam. All
active airfields and naval bases will be reported. Active

since Inactive targets showing an order of
battle will be reactivated.
Naval vessels observed in river naval areas, dispersal
areas, or untargeted areas and aircraft observed in untar-
geted areas will be
Targets are arranged 1) within the country by subject,
2) within the subject by WAC area, and 3) within the WAC
area by geographic coordinates in ascending order.
Coverage on each target will be presented in chrono-
logical order. Aircraft and naval vessels observed in
untargeted areas will be listed separately at the end of
this report.
An explanation of column headings and photo references

APPENDIX
City, Installation--This column contains the name of
the city or town nearest the installation, followed by the
name of the installation. If the name of the installation is
not known, it is titled according to its function. Where
appropriate, the city and installation names are followed
by a capsule description.
Coordinates--Coordinates are referenced to the SW
corner of the minute square. When the subject installation
covers a wide area, coordinates are given for the approxi-
mate center of the installation.
WAC--This column provides the World Aeronautical
Chart number for that area in which the subject installation
is situated.
Installation Numbers--This column is divided into two
subcolumns. The first subcolumn lists, when known, the
BE installation number assigned to the installation. The
second subcolumn lists the installation number assigned by
NPIC. Installation numbers, when used to reference an
item, should be prefixed by the appropriate WAC number,
since installation numbers are repeated from WAC to WAC.
For example, there is an NPIC target number 0468-15-A
and an NPIC target number 0467-15-A. In each instance,
the NPIC installation number is 15-A, but the installations
appear on different WAC charts.
COMOR TARGET NUMBERS
Target numbers assigned by the Committee on Over-
head Reconnaissance (COMOR), when available, are listed
directly above the photo reference data.
PHOTO REFERENCE DATA
The photo reference data indicates the frame(s) on
which the installation appears.
CONDITIONS AFFECTING PHOTOGRAPHY
Following the photo reference data, symbols indicate
conditions which affect the appearance of the installation
on the photography. The symbols are: C (clear); SC
(scattered cloud cover); HC (heavy cloud cover); SC-HC
(scattered-to-heavy cloud cover); H (haze); CS (cloud
shadow); SD (semidarkness); S (snow); 0 (obliquity); and
PQ (poor image quality).
