    T™ 31—201—1 DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY TECHNICAL MANUAL UNCONVENTIONAL WARFARE DEVICES AND TECHNIQUES INCENDIARIES HEADQUARTERS, DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY MAY 1966 INTRODUCTION This manual is one of a series now being published, primarily for U.S. Army Special Forces, that deals with subjects pertaining to destructive techniques and their applications to targets in guerrilla and unconventional warfare. The series consists of both classified and unclassified manuals of three types: a, Unconventional Warfare Reference Manuals con- sist of detailed, illustrated abstracts of the technical literature. They are designed to provide sources of information and ideas and to minimize duplication of effort. b. Unconventional Warfare Devices and Technique Manuals cover incendiaries, explosives, weapons, and harmful additives. They present principles of construc- tion and methods of use of devices and techniques that are proven reliable and effective. c. Unconventional Warfare Target Manuals identify critical components of selected targets and describe methods for destruction of the target using applicable devices and techniques. This manual on incendiaries is written to serve the U.S. Army Special Forces in the field. It covers all aspects of incendiary systems including the incendiary devices, means for igniting them, techniques for their use, methods of improvising them, and sources of material supply. Some of the devices can be improvised from locally available materials. Detailed instructions TAGO 7189-C 1 are given for preparation steps. Others can be impro- vised if more sophisticated materials are obtainable. Still others require fabrication or formulation in a laboratory or industrial plant. All of the devices and techniques herein reported are known to work. It is a special feature of this manual to present only those items that produce useful results as verified by independent test. Before an item be- comes eligible for inclusion in this manual, it passes engineering tests designed to evaluate effectiveness, reliability, and safety. Not only does this program provide performance data, it also eliminates items that prove to be ineffective, unreliable, or unsafe, even though they may exist in print elsewhere. Although laboratory and final testing are adequate, user famil- iarization with construction, operation, and performance of each iten or technique is recommended before tactical use. Instructions and formulations must be followed precisely to assure proper functioning of the incendiaries. The material in this manual is grouped into six chapters. Each chapter is subdivided into paragraphs having 4-digit numbers, the first representing section numbers, and the last two paragraph numbers. Sequential Section No , one decade per Chapter | oC Sequential Paragraph No, 00ce This numbering system was selected to make location of material convenient for the reader, once he has u TAGO 7189-C
