During my tour in RVN it was rumored that one of the methods
use by us to track NVA was by flying a helo over the triple
canopy and wafting air over a bed of bedbugs. The phermones in the
aiir were detected by the bugs who became vewry excited. Excitment
noted and ploted and done agin again until a concentration of troops
was identified. Arty and aircover did the rest. WSA Was ;this ever
evaluated or di d it ever exist? B-52 stikes were vectored
using a much diferent methodology , another posting.
