Many of the Laotian trail watchers we recruited could not read or write, so the device featured “pictograms”.
#Elephant Counter pictograms represented:
Troops
Trucks
Carts
Bicycles
Tanks
Cannons
Small artillery
Missiles
Donkeys
& sometimes elephants!
Alongside each pictogram was a knob that could be set to a number. Data could be transmitted to an airplane by activating a toggle switch.
