Killing vector fields of constant length correspond to isometries of constant displacement. Those in turn have been used to study homogeneity of Riemannian and Finsler quotient manifolds. Almost all of that work has been done for group manifolds or, more generally, for symmetric spaces. This paper extends the scope of research on constant length Killing vector fields to a class of Riemannian normal homogeneous spaces.(MING XU) Research supported by NSFC no. 11271216, State Scholarship Fund of CSC (no. 201408120020), Science and Technology Development Fund for Universities and Colleges in Tianjin (no. 20141005), and the Doctor fund of Tianjin Normal University (no. 52XB1305)(JOSEPH A.
