Frequently Asked Questions

What is the 'Scrum' technique in evasion tactics?

The 'Scrum' technique involves team members staying extremely close, potentially holding onto each other if injured, during the initial sprint to break contact with the enemy quickly and effectively.

How can a two-man team counter drone threats during evasion?

To counter drone threats, teams should utilize thick vegetation and overhead cover to break up their visual and thermal signatures, making them harder to detect from aerial surveillance.

What are the key principles for constructing a thermal-defeating hide site?

A thermal-defeating hide site should follow the BLISS principle: Blend, Low, Irregular, Secluded, Small/Shine/Sound. Using materials like thermal-defeating tarps further masks body heat from sensors.

Why is electronic security critical during evasion?

Electronic security is critical because unsecured radios or cell phones can be triangulated by the enemy, leading to rapid detection and compromise of the team's position.
