In two previous papers (see 4; 5) O. T. O'Meara and I investigated the problem of generating the integral orthogonal group of a quadratic form by symmetries in the case where the underlying ring of integers was the integers of a dyadic local field of characteristic not 2. In this paper, the investigation is concerned with a local field of characteristic 2. As in (5), only the unimodular case is treated. As in (4) and (5), groups S(L), Xh (L), and O(L) are introduced for a unimodular lattice L and the relationship between S(L) and O(L) studied. As in the previously cited papers, generation by symmetries means that S(L) = O(L). The following result is obtained.
