Lesson 1/Learning Event 2
Another way of implementing the bounding overwatch technique is to have the lead element, after it
is in position, support the advance of only one of the trail elements. The second trail element stays
in position until the advancing trail element is in position. Once in position, this trail element will
support the advance of the second trail element. The lead element will be in a position to support
the advance of both trail elements. The difference between the two techniques is that in figure 4,
steps 1, 2, and 3, both trail elements move together. The second method has only one trail element
moving while the other supports the advance.
