Cross a danger area as a team
Cross the danger area using controlled movement and mutual cover:
- When approaching a danger area, the leader alerts the team by saying ‘Danger Area’
- 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
