3, and DA NANG (VC) Districts. Since Nov 67, Source worked for the
Troops and Enemy Proselyting Section, QUANG DA (VC) Province Party
Committee. He knew the organizations and activities of the
Communist infrastructure, in spite of the fact that he never held a
high position within the Party Committee.
b. Committees:
(1) QUANG DA (VC) Province Party Committee:
(a) History. Source did not know when the QUANG DA (VC) Province
Party Committee was formed. Since Source joined the unit, no
sections had been deactivated or new sections added.
(b) Subordination. The QUANG DA (VC) Province Party Committee was
directly subordinate to the Current Affairs Committee, Central Zone
5, COSVN.

system for assigning cover designations to the elements of Central
Zone 5 or the QUANG DA (VC) Province Party Committee. Source said

Page 5 of 15
(e) Mission. The mission of the QUANG DA (VC) Province Party
Committee was to coordinate the military and political operations
within the province in order to gain control of both the population
and territory. Source had no knowledge of the methods of operation
of this committee.
(f) Effectiveness. Source felt that the QUANG DA (VC) Province
Party Committee was effective in its task of organizing and
arranging for the execution of orders, because the subordinate units
were always aware of their current orders. Source indicated the
Party Committee was in control of three-fourths of the province area
and one-tenth of the population.
(g) Barriers to Effectiveness. Source believed that the greatest
barriers to the operation of the committee were the operations of
the Allied units in the province and the GVN Pacification Program,
which had moved a large proportion of the population into strategic
hamlets, where they were not susceptable to proselyting and tax
collection. Since the US forces left in 1970, the committee had had
more success in its operations.
