Communications is the primary mission of the Signal Corps and its members. "Division-Level Communications" is a story not only of some very fine Signal Corps units and individuals but also of many other communications from the Infantry, Armor, Artillery, and all other branches of the Army. It is a combined arms story; on the battlefield, communications is everybody's business. The scope of this study includes the stateside alert and readying of units for Vietnam duty and the each of the Army training base to supply the volume of trained specialists needed to man the equipment associated with a modern communications system. The transition from peacetime status to battlefield effectiveness is always difficult, normally made more so because of severe shortages of time equipment, and skilled men.
