v3.00
Cross the danger area using controlled movement and mutual cover:
The first two members hold on the near side, covering left and right across the danger area
The next two cross, move quickly to the far side, and take up left and right coverage
If more personnel remain, they cross next and cover the direction of travel
Once the main body is across, the original two members cross last
After crossing, they resume the direction of travel, restoring the original formation
The rest of the team re-joins the formation and continues movement
