The doctrinal basis for high mobility vehicles in forward area units is found in a series of Army studies accomplished in the period 1959-1969. This presentation will feature the highlights of these studies and include a description of the high mobility vehicles which will be entering Army inventories in the 1970's. A description of the mobility requirements of Army units involved in combat, combat support, and combat service support will be included.
