All of Region II with the exception of the extreme southern part is covered
by good quality, cloud-free photography. The extreme southern area was scanned
utilizing oblique photography and fair quality ~ photography.
Very little activity is noted outside of the Hai-Kou~Shu-Chang area. In
the Hai-Kou-Shu-Chang area are numerous installations which have a military
appearance. However, upon closer examination and by using collateral information
many of these installations were in reality found to be schools, communes, and
small industries. No unusual items of interest were discovered during the
study of Area II.
