No- definitely not TCS ! The army had portable sets that were suited to
this role. For example, the "Merrill's Marauders" group operating in
Burma, often behind enemy lines, used the Army BC-654 set.  The
BC-654 and BC-474 operated from handcranked generators (except
for receiver section).   Also, they were easy to pack up and move
away fast, if needed.  -Hue Miller
