In modern combat, a soldier must be able to move quickly and covertly on any terrain under enemy fire and at the same time continuously monitor the enemy and destroy him with fire from his weapon. In battle, a soldier can move on an infantry fighting vehicle (APC), as an assault on a tank and on foot.

Methods of movement in combat when operating on foot

When operating on foot, depending on the nature of the terrain and the impact of enemy fire, a soldier can move at an accelerated pace or run (in full height or crouching), running or crawling. These modes of movement are proven in battles.

Fast paced or running sections of the terrain hidden from enemy observation and not shot through by his fire are overcome. In the same way, the movement to the attack is carried out. In this case, the weapon can be in a position for immediate opening of fire offhand (Fig. 17) or with the butt pressed to the side.

rushes are used for covert rendezvous with the enemy and other actions in open areas. To run from a prone position, you must first outline the path of movement and a sheltered stop for a break and put the weapon on the safety. Then quickly get up, as when executing the “Stand up” command, and quickly run to the intended place, lie down on the ground with a run and quickly crawl to the side. This is done in order to hide the stopping point from the enemy, otherwise he, having taken aim in advance, can hit the soldier when he rises for the next dash. The length of the dash between stops for a respite depends on the terrain and enemy fire and can be from 20 to 40 paces. During this time, the enemy does not have time to make an aimed shot. Having reached the line planned or indicated by the commander, it is necessary to take a place and get ready for firing to cover the other soldiers' dashes with fire.

crawling they move if the enemy conducts aimed fire or when it is necessary to approach the enemy unnoticed and suddenly attack him. Depending on the terrain and vegetation cover, you can crawl on the bellies, on half-fours or on your side (Fig. 18). As before a dash, you first need to map out a route of movement and sheltered places for a respite.

To crawl in a plastunsky way, lie down tightly on the ground, take the machine gun by the belt at the upper swivel with your right hand and put it on the forearm of your right hand. Pull up the right (left) leg and at the same time extend the left (right) arm as far as possible. Then, pushing off with a bent leg, move the body forward and pull up the other leg, extend the other arm and continue in the same order. When crawling, do not raise your head high.

To crawl on half-fours, kneel down and lean on your forearms or on your hands. Then pull the bent right (left) leg under the chest, at the same time stretch the left (right) arm forward, move the body forward until the right (left) leg is fully extended, while pulling the other under you, bent leg, and, stretching forward the other hand, continue to move in the same order. In this case, the machine should be held in the same way as when crawling in a plastunsky way (when relying on the hands - in the right hand).

To crawl on your side, lie on your left side and, pulling forward left leg, bent at the knee, lean on the forearm of the left hand, with the right foot rest the heel on the ground as close to you as possible. Then, unbending the right leg, move the body forward without changing the position of the left leg, and then continue the movement in the same order. When crawling on the side, hold the weapon with the right hand, placing it on the thigh of the left leg. This method is most often used for carrying ammunition and cargo on the battlefield.

The probability of hitting personnel by a shock wave depends not only on the distance from the site of a nuclear explosion, but also on where and in what position the soldier is at the time of the explosion, as well as on the ability to take protective measures against the outbreak of a nuclear explosion.

Having noticed the flash of a nuclear explosion, while in the BMP, it is necessary to close hatches, loopholes, blinds and turn on the system of protection against weapons of mass destruction. When in an open armored personnel carrier, you should duck. When positioned on the ground, it is necessary to quickly take a nearby shelter or lie on the ground with your feet in the direction of the explosion, face down, hiding your hands under you, and close your eyes (Fig. 19).

When choosing a shelter, it should be remembered that the speed of propagation of a shock wave and its density along hollows, ravines, forest edges, trenches increases significantly.

After passing the shock wave, immediately rise and continue the combat mission.

Techniques and methods of movement on the battlefield (fast pace, running, dashes and crawling), their use depending on the intensity of enemy fire and terrain

It is almost impossible to foresee the order of movement of a soldier on the battlefield in advance. Usually this is determined by the nature of the terrain, the actions of the enemy and the task solved by each of the soldiers.
Movement on the battlefield during actions on foot can be carried out at an accelerated pace or run (in full growth or crouching), dashes and crawling.

Sections of the terrain hidden from enemy observation and not penetrated by his fire are overcome at an accelerated pace or run.

Movement with an accelerated step in growth is used during an attack and an offensive far from the enemy or on terrain where enemy observation is excluded (forest, high bushes, hollow, ravine, reverse slopes of heights, etc.).

Moving at an accelerated step while crouching is used for covert movement in terrain with low shelters (low bushes, tall grass, ditch, etc.), along trenches and communications.
Running (slow, fast and at an average pace) can be used when attacking the enemy, as well as to overcome certain areas of the terrain. High-speed running in full growth or crouching is used when running across, when running out of shelters to combat and transport vehicles.

rushes

The opening sections of the terrain, fired upon by the enemy, are overcome by dashes crouching.

The dash begins from a prone position at the command (signal) of the squad leader (senior combat group) or independently. Before starting the dash, you must first select a position that should provide protection from enemy fire. The length of each run should be on average 20-40 steps. The more open the terrain, the faster and shorter the dash should be. It is carried out rapidly, in the direction of the stopping place, located 1-2 m from the selected position. Before starting a run, it is necessary to carefully examine the area and evaluate options for subsequent actions.

Having reached the stopping point, it is necessary to lie down on the ground with a run and roll (crawl) to the selected position and prepare for firing. The position of the weapon during the defection is at the choice of the defector. After waiting 5-10 seconds, it is necessary to run in the same order to the next stopping place and so on until the line indicated by the commander is reached.

Squads, a group or individual soldiers who have remained in place, as well as advanced after crossing to the indicated line (stop), support the rest of the crossing with their fire. It is impossible to fire from one firing position for a long time, it must be changed more often. In the course of firing, the soldier must be able to find a new suitable position and, if possible, covertly advance towards it.

A platoon can rush one by one or by squads, and a squad can rush one by one, by battle groups, or simultaneously by the whole composition.

Platoon (squad) rushes are made on commands:
- one at a time - “Platoon (squad, group), in the direction of such and such an object (to such and such a line), in a dash, to the right (left, right and left) one at a time - FORWARD”;
- by squads (battle groups) - “Platoon (squad), in the direction of such and such an object (to such and such a line), in a dash, such and such (such and such) squad (group) - FORWARD”;
- by the whole composition - "Squad, in the direction of such and such an object (to such and such a line), by a dash - FORWARD."

When crossing one by one executive team"FORWARD" right-flank (left-flank or both left-flank and right-flank) jumps up and, having quickly run 20-40 steps, takes a pre-selected position (shooting place), prepares for the opening of fire and covers the movement of the second (seconds).

Simultaneously with the stop of the first (first), the second (second) starts to run; advancing to the line of the first (first) crosser, he takes a pre-selected position (shooting place), prepares for the opening of fire and covers the movement of the first (first).

The first (first), running across when the second (second) stops, runs over in the same way until reaching the indicated line.

When crossing over battle groups in a platoon, several battle groups designated for movement by squad leaders run simultaneously in the same way as one at a time (a maneuvering group runs over under the cover of a fire group, a fire group under cover of a maneuver group).

When a platoon rushes through squads, each squad begins to move at the command of its squad leader "Squad, in the direction of such and such an object (to such and such a line), rush, follow me - FORWARD." The squad personnel jump up at the same time and, after running 20-40 steps, take a break. To resume movement, the command "Separation - FORWARD" is given. The movement of squads is carried out under mutual cover of fire.

Infantry fighting vehicles (armored personnel carriers) with their fire support the advance of the personnel of their subunits and, using terrain folds, move from cover to cover.

crawling

Crawls are used for imperceptibly approaching the enemy and covertly overcoming open areas of terrain that are under observation or shelling of the enemy. As before a dash, before crawling, it is necessary to outline the path of movement and sheltered places to stop.

In the conditions of the use of "stretch mines" by the enemy, it is necessary to use a cat on a cord before crawling, which from a prone position is thrown forward along the crawling path and pulled towards itself, activating the fuses of the installed mines. When using a cat, soldiers of their unit should not be in the affected area of ​​the mine.

Depending on the situation, the height of the vegetation cover and the availability of shelters, crawling can be carried out in a plastunsky way, on half-fours and on the side in the following order.

On a preliminary command, the crawler must outline the path of movement and sheltered stopping places for a respite, and on the executive command, crawl over in one of the indicated ways.

To crawl a platoon and squad, the same commands are given as when moving in dashes, for example: “Platoon, in the direction of such and such an object (to such and such a line), crawling to the right (left), by squads - FORWARD” or “Squad ( battle group), in the direction of such and such an object (to such and such a line), crawling to the right (left, right and left) one at a time - FORWARD.

Creeping in a plastunsky way is used on terrain that is shot through by enemy small arms fire and does not have sufficient shelters.

To crawl in a plastunsky way, you need to lie down tightly on the ground, take the weapon by the belt at the upper swivel with your right hand and put it on the forearm of your right hand. Pull up the right (left) leg and at the same time stretch the left (right) arm as far as possible; pushing off with a bent leg, move the body forward, continue moving in the same order. When crawling, do not raise your head high.

Crawling on half-fours is used on terrain exposed to enemy fire, having small masks (low bushes, tall grass, crops, etc.), as well as along ditches, shallow hollows, along trenches and communication passages, along which movement in growth and crouching impossible.

To crawl on half-fours, you need to kneel and lean on your forearms or hands. Pull the bent right (left) leg under the chest, at the same time stretch the left (right) arm forward.

Move the body forward until the right (left) leg is fully extended, while pulling the other, bent leg under you and stretching the other arm, continue moving in the same order. Keep weapons: when relying on the forearms - the same as when crawling in a plastunsky way; when resting on the hands - in the right hand.

Crawling on one side is usually used when moving on snow or sandy terrain, when crawling with machine guns, when bringing ammunition, delivering food, and when carrying the wounded from the battlefield.

To crawl on your side, you need to lie on your left side; pulling forward the left leg, bent at the knee, lean on the forearm of the left hand, with the right foot rest the heel on the ground as close to itself as possible; unbending the right leg, move the body forward without changing the position of the left leg, and then continue the movement in the same order. Hold the weapon with the right hand, placing it on the thigh of the left leg.
To stop a platoon (squad), the command "Platoon (squad, group) - STOP" is given, and to resume movement - "Platoon (squad, group) - FORWARD".

When conducting operations at night and the need to hide your movement from the enemy (to achieve surprise attack, when conducting reconnaissance), if during the movement the area is suddenly illuminated by the enemy, you must immediately stop moving and lie still until the end of the illumination.

The movement of the platoon (squad) back is carried out in the same ways as forward, at the command “Platoon (squad), retreat to such and such an object (to such and such a line), to the right (left or right and left) one at a time (in groups , departments) - BACK".

The combination of fire with movement, the use of local objects and shelters during movement for observation and firing. Observation of the enemy and the terrain during movement, report to the commander on the results of observation

The combination of fire and movement.

The combination of fire with movement consists in advancing a soldier (group, squad) to a specified line under the cover of continuous fire fired at the enemy from all fire weapons remaining in place, or firing with a simultaneous attack on the enemy by all personnel of the unit at the same time.

The first method is used, as a rule, in the case when a piece of terrain does not provide a sufficient number of shelters, the enemy offers fierce resistance, and maximum fire support is required for personnel performing dashes to approach the enemy and occupy a more advantageous position.

In the second case, the entire unit simultaneously deploys in a chain and advances towards the object of attack. At the same time, each soldier moves with a quick step towards the object, maintaining the general pace of the offensive, and fires at the enemy and his probable positions. This method of combining fire and movement can be most effective when there are no shelters on the advance route, and the enemy is disorganized and does not offer organized resistance, as well as when pursuing a retreating enemy, or when artillery and air support give troops an advantage over the enemy.

Use of local objects and shelters during movement for observation and firing.

Even on the most flat terrain, there are small bumps, elevations and depressions, and craters appear during combat. It is they who need to be used when moving on the battlefield.

The best way to move under enemy fire and observation is to move from cover to cover. A soldier is recommended before moving mentally to go through the path that he has to overcome when approaching the enemy. How to lay out an imaginary path on the battlefield, marking on it the places of stops for a break. If it is impossible to mark the entire path in this way, then you need to first plan the paths of the next few runs.

It is better to lie down on the ground after the next run not behind the shelter, but next to it and then crawl behind it, and crawl away from the shelter before making a run. You need to leave the shelter in a different way, compared to how the shelter was occupied. All this is done so that the enemy cannot determine where the movement will start from, and, accordingly, he could not aim his weapon at this point in advance.

Instead of crawling, you can use rolling, but when rolling, there is a high probability of unmasking yourself. Other things being equal, you need to crawl away to the right of yourself, since when firing from automatic weapons, bursts of shots go to the left - up from the one they are shooting at.

However, if the height of the vegetation cover is low, or some area of ​​​​the terrain does not have shelters from bullets, but is covered only from observation, or the enemy’s position is already very close, one should freeze after the fall and especially avoid head movements that are clearly visible.

If for some reason a command to stop is given, then one should not completely stop moving in the place where such an order was found, but one should take the nearest shelter, convenient for possible firing and further movement.

It is necessary to use the principle "from cover to cover" within reasonable limits. It should not be used when unexpectedly hit by enemy fire. In such a situation, it will not work to run 10 meters. You need to fall right away.

One should not, in search of safety, use too obvious and easily accessible hiding places. The property of such shelters to "attract" soldiers is known. In such places, "crowding" of soldiers often occurs. The enemy can shoot them well or mine them, and (instead of protection) they will become a trap. The enemy, first of all, shoots through the most obvious shelters, he can specially equip such to lure and destroy the attackers in them. For example, the enemy can dig entire lines of trenches with a normal parapet on the side of the attackers and a hidden parapet on the side of their defensive position. The infantry, having captured such a trench, is methodically shot by the enemy or (if the second trench is close) is thrown with grenades: after all, the attacker has a limited supply of grenades, and the defender can accumulate them in advance in large quantities.

A simpler version of the same trick is to pour heaps of earth and “plant” bushes at a strictly defined distance from their positions. The destruction of the attackers is much easier, since the exact distance to the places where they will try to hide is known.

Finally, when close enough to the enemy, as a rule, there is no cover from fire and it is necessary to use ultra-short dashes as a means of making it difficult for the enemy to aim.

Observation of the enemy and the terrain during movement, report to the commander on the results of observation

Each soldier is obliged to continuously monitor the battlefield, obtain important information about the nature of the enemy’s actions and report the results of the observation to his commander.

In an offensive and in a meeting engagement, the observer in the squad, as a rule, is located with the squad leader and conducts observation on the move.

The observer is usually appointed from among specially trained soldiers. He must be able to navigate the terrain well day and night, have good skills in conducting reconnaissance by observation, visual memory, great endurance and patience, to be hardy, quick-witted, cold-blooded.

The observer must:
- be able to choose, equip and mask a place for observation, navigate the terrain at any time of the year and day; determine the distance to targets (objects), use observation devices and means of communication;
- know the reconnaissance features of the main types of weapons and military equipment of the enemy, analyze the information, keep records in the observation log and clearly report the results of the observation to the commander (senior observation post).

The observer's report should be specific, concise and include:

• a landmark or code name for a local item;
• the position of the target relative to the landmark;
• characteristics of the target.

At the same time, he first indicates the position of the target to the right or left of the landmark in thousandths, and the removal of the target further or closer to the landmark - in meters.
For example: “Landmark 3, to the right 20, further 200, a machine gun is near a tall tree.

The place and duties of a soldier in battle

A soldier in combat, as a rule, acts as part of a squad. The combat order of a motorized rifle squad can be built on the basis of combat groups: maneuver and fire. The composition of the battle groups is determined by the squad leader. In addition, a combat vehicle may be included in the battle formation of a squad.

The maneuver group is designed to carry out the tasks of destroying the enemy, firmly holding the occupied positions and objects, capturing his objects, weapons and equipment. As a rule, a senior gunner and one or two gunners are assigned to the maneuver group.

The fire group is designed to support the actions of the maneuver group with fire and, together with it, carry out the tasks of destroying the enemy, firmly holding the occupied positions and objects, and capturing his objects, weapons and equipment. The composition of the fire team, as a rule, includes a squad leader, a grenade launcher, an assistant grenade launcher and a machine gunner.

Responsibilities of personnel.

Every soldier must know perfectly and keep his weapons and weapons in constant combat readiness. military equipment, masterfully master them and skillfully apply them, be ready to replace a comrade who has retired from the ranks.

Every soldier must:

To know the methods and techniques of actions in combat, to have the skills of actions with weapons worked out to automatism (when arming a combat vehicle) on the battlefield in various conditions environment;

Know and understand the task;

Know control signals, interactions, notifications and the procedure for actions on them;

To be able to conduct reconnaissance of the enemy and the terrain, while performing a combat mission, constantly monitor, effectively use weapons (armament of a combat vehicle), timely detect and hit the enemy;

Be able to correctly select and equip a firing position (shooting place), use the protective and camouflage properties of the terrain and combat vehicles to counter enemy fire;

Know the size, volume, sequence and timing of the equipment of fortifications; be able to quickly equip trenches and shelters, including with the use of explosives, to carry out camouflage;

Steadfastly and stubbornly act on the defensive, boldly and decisively - on the offensive; show courage, initiative and resourcefulness in battle; help a friend;

Be able to fire at low-flying aircraft, helicopters and other air targets of the enemy from small arms;

Know how to protect against weapons of mass destruction and high-precision weapons of the enemy; skillfully use the terrain, personal protective equipment and the protective properties of combat vehicles; overcome barriers, obstacles and infection zones; to lay and neutralize anti-tank and anti-personnel mines; carry out special processing;

Do not leave your place in battle without the permission of the commander; in case of injury or damage by radioactive, toxic substances, biological agents, as well as incendiary weapons, take the necessary measures of self-help and mutual assistance and continue to perform the assigned task;

To be able to prepare weapons and ammunition for combat use, quickly equip clips, magazines, tapes with cartridges; monitor the consumption of ammunition and refueling of the combat vehicle with fuel, promptly report to your commander on the consumption of 0.5 and 0.75 of the stock of missiles (ammunition) and refueling; in case of damage to the combat vehicle, take measures to restore it.

Each sergeant and soldier is obliged to protect the commander in battle, in case of his injury or death, feel free to take command of the unit.

The crew of the combat vehicle if it is damaged, if possible, continues to destroy the enemy with fire, while simultaneously taking measures to eliminate the damage, and reports on it to the senior commander. If it is impossible to restore the car on its own, then the crew is waiting for the approach of repair (evacuation) means. When a combat vehicle ignites, the crew takes measures to extinguish it.

The crew has the right to leave the combat vehicle only if the vehicle is on fire and all measures taken to extinguish the fire have failed. When leaving the combat vehicle, the crew members, if possible, dismantle the coaxial (course, anti-aircraft) machine gun, take away the weapon and ammunition for it, and the crew of the infantry fighting vehicle, in addition, - an anti-tank missile system and missiles for it. Evacuation from a damaged combat vehicle is carried out under mutual fire cover, as well as under the cover of fire of a motorized rifle unit.

Every soldier must know and comply with the rules of International Humanitarian Law:

When performing the task received, use weapons only against the enemy and his military installations;

Not to attack persons and objects under the protection of International Humanitarian Law, if these persons do not commit hostile acts, and the objects are not used (not prepared for use) for military purposes;

Do not cause unnecessary suffering, do not cause more damage than is necessary to complete the combat mission;

If the situation permits, to pick up the wounded, sick and shipwrecked who refrain from hostile action, and give them assistance;

Treat civilians humanely, respect their property;

Keep subordinates and their comrades from violating the norms of International Humanitarian Law, and report cases of their violation to the senior commander.

An enemy who has surrendered must be disarmed, if necessary, assisted and handed over to his commander. A captured enemy must be treated humanely.

Violation of these rules not only dishonors the Fatherland, but also, in cases established by law, entails criminal liability.

When performing the assigned tasks, each commander, within the limits of his duties, must take into account the norms of International Humanitarian Law when making a decision and ensure their implementation by his subordinates.

Movement on the battlefield.

The terrain is one of the elements of the combat situation. Without a thorough assessment of it, it is impossible to approach the enemy imperceptibly, without losses, and achieve the ultimate goal - his destruction. Therefore, even when time is very limited, the warrior must evaluate the influence of the terrain on his upcoming actions. Experience shows that the correct and skillful use of the terrain accompanies success.

A soldier on the battlefield can move brisk walking or running, jogging and crawling.

Sectors of terrain hidden from enemy observation and not penetrated by his fire are overcome at a pace, at an accelerated pace, or at a run. Depending on the depth of cover, a soldier can move to full height or crouch.

When it is necessary to get close to the enemy in an open area, as well as to attack, dashes are most often used.

The dashes begin, as a rule, from the prone position of the soldier. The length of the dash depends on the vegetation (snow) cover and the intensity of enemy fire. First, the soldier, in accordance with the instruction of the squad leader, which line to reach, and also taking into account the direction of movement, the terrain ahead and the actions of neighboring soldiers in the squad chain, outlines the path of movement and a sheltered place after the end of the dash. Then, pulling both hands to chest level and having a weapon in his right hand, he simultaneously brings his legs together, sharply straightens his arms, brings one leg forward, quickly rises and starts to run. Having made a dash, the soldier falls sharply to the ground and instantly crawls covertly to the right or left behind the previously planned shelter. The length of the dash can vary from 20 to 40 steps. It depends on the terrain and the fire of the enemy, who should not have time, having found a soldier, to open aimed fire at him.

To do this, it is imperative to crawl to the side after falling to the ground. Suppose the enemy discovered a soldier during a run, but did not have time to make an aimed shot, naturally, he will certainly keep this point of the terrain “at gunpoint”, waiting for the soldier to reappear to defeat him. Thus, imperceptibly crawling to the side, the soldier takes a convenient place behind the shelter - for observation, firing, covering the rush of other soldiers.

It must be remembered that the closer the enemy and the more intense his fire, the shorter the dash should be.

In a combat situation, if the enemy conducts very strong aimed fire or when it is necessary to approach (crawl) unnoticed to the enemy (in reconnaissance - in order to surprise a sentry or an observer in order to capture him), crawling is used. At the same time, depending on the terrain and vegetation cover, crawling can be done on half-fours, on the side and in a plastunsky way.

During the crawl, as well as during the dash, the soldier outlines for himself the path of movement and shelter for respite and firing. It is advantageous to mark the crawling path through small shrubs, tall and dense grass, as well as in areas full of boulders, individual bushes and tussocks. The weapon is held in the right hand.

Regardless of the method of crawling (on half-fours, on the side, or on the plastuna), the soldier must continuously monitor the enemy, immediately report the detected targets and his actions to the commander, and be constantly ready to open fire. To do this, while moving, having a weapon on the fuse, the soldier must protect it from shock and pollution, especially from getting earth into the bore. The battle is fought with the aim of destroying the enemy. But the enemy is also striving for the same. Consequently, the task of the soldier is to remain unnoticed, to detect the enemy, to be the first to open fire, to hit him with the first shot, with the first turn. He struck - it means he saved himself, destroyed the enemy.

To carry out a run (crawl), a command is given, for example, "Private Petrov, run to a hillock near a separate tree - FORWARD." The soldier, on a preliminary command, outlines the path, and on the executive command, having risen, rushes forward (runs across) or begins to crawl.

Section 1. The main methods of movement, movement on the battlefield, evacuation of the wounded from the battlefield

The common phrase "Movement is life" in military affairs takes on a very specific meaning, since too often the price of movement is the life of a soldier. Accordingly, one of the planned learning outcomes should be the formation of sustainable movement skills in high school students in various ways. Every movement and obstacle course should begin with a check on the fit of uniforms, weapons and equipment. Wherein:

• clothing should allow the trainee to freely raise his hands up and, in a standing position, reach his shoulder with his knee;
• footwear must correspond to the size of the trainee's feet, the weather and reliably protect the foot and lower leg from possible damage and injury;
• the equipment must be fitted so as not to restrict movement and move as little as possible when making sharp turns, somersaults, etc.;
• the weapon is adjusted in accordance with the exercise being worked out.

It is important that weapons and equipment do not make extraneous sounds when trainees make sudden movements. The fit is checked by the instructor giving the command “Jump!”. At the same time, trainees make several simple vertical jumps and several vertical jumps with twisting of the body. The instructor carefully observes how much the equipment has shifted during the jumps and listens to see if weapons and equipment create extraneous sounds. If necessary, gives instructions for the elimination of identified deficiencies.

§ 7.1.1. Ways of movement: walking, running, on all fours, on the side, prone (plastunsky)

Walking. When practicing this exercise, it is important to develop the trainee's way of walking, which will require a minimum of effort from him, for this:

• the step should not be wide, allowing you to smoothly transfer body weight from foot to foot with maximum use of the inertia of movement;
• the feet should be placed parallel to the axis of movement, as close as possible to it, keep the knees inward, distribute the load on the four toes of the feet ( thumbs it is not recommended to load with body weight during long walking);
• the transfer of body weight is carried out by a smooth roll on outside feet from heel to toe;
• when walking, all the muscles of the body should be as relaxed as possible;
• breathing is even and not too deep (between 15-20 steps, one deep breath should be taken to increase ventilation of the lungs).

Run. When practicing this exercise, it is important to develop for the trainee such a way of running that will require a minimum of effort from him, for which it is necessary to follow all the recommendations that are given for walking. Note that running differs from walking in the presence of a flight phase and a large forward inclination of the body.

Moving on all fours(photo 1.1).

Photo 1.1 Moving on all fours

Starting position: emphasis resting on the palms (palms at the same level), the left leg is bent at the knee, rests on the front of the sole of the foot, the right leg is extended back resting on the knee and toe of the foot, the elbows are slightly bent, the shoulder blades are brought together, the back is even. At the same time, the opposite arm and leg move forward, while the torso should move parallel to the ground, the leg extended forward first touches the ground with its toe, loading it with part of the body weight, then begins to lean on the knee, also transferring part of the weight to it, the toe of the foot while this remains loaded.

Moving on the side(photo series 1.2)

Starting position: lying on your side, legs bent at the knees. Pushing off with the left foot and leaning on the forearm of the right hand and outer part of the right leg, the body jerks forward, the legs at the end of the movement are almost straight. Relying on left hand, the right forearm is extended forward, and the left leg is bent at the knee. Pushing off with the left foot and leaning on the forearm of the right hand, the body is transferred forward while pulling up the right leg and bending it at the knee. The next position is the starting position.

Moving on the side

Moving on the side is practiced so that the scout can move on the side if moving prone is impossible (dragging something, getting injured, etc.).

Moving prone (in a plastunsky way)(photo series 1.3)

moving prone (in plastunsky)

Starting position: lying down, palms at the same level, left leg bent at the knee, right leg extended back, look in front of you. Without lifting the body from the ground, leaning on the right hand and pushing off with the left foot, move the body forward, bringing the left hand in front of you while bending the right leg at the knee. Further, without lifting the body from the ground, leaning on the left hand and pushing off with the right foot, move the body forward, bringing the right hand in front of you while bending the left leg at the knee, etc.

§ 7.1.2. Battlefield Movement Basics

Dashing on the battlefield - very important element special motor training of a serviceman, used to quickly approach the enemy in open areas. The dashes are carried out, if possible, from cover to cover, and the time of the dash should not exceed 4 seconds: as practice shows, 4 seconds is the minimum time required for the enemy to see a target that has arisen (for example, a running soldier) and fire at it aimed shot. The length of the dash can be from a few to 40 steps: the more open the area, the faster and shorter it should be. Before starting the dash, it is necessary to carefully examine the area and evaluate options for subsequent actions (in particular, it is necessary to choose the final position, which should provide protection from enemy fire).

The dash begins from a prone position at the command (signal) of the squad leader (senior combat group) or independently. It is carried out rapidly, in the direction of the stopping place, located 1-2 m from the selected position. Having reached the stopping point, it is necessary to lie on the ground with a run, move to the selected position and prepare for firing. The position of the weapon during the defection is at the choice of the defector.

The basic running technique includes jumping up, dashing and falling, followed by preparation for battle (photo sequence 1.4), and is performed as follows:

• the trainee is in the ready position for prone shooting;
• on the command "FORWARD", he puts the weapon on the ground, at the same time pulls up, bending at the knee, the pushing leg and leans on the ground with the palms of his hands;
• jumps up, pushing off simultaneously with his hands and foot (the right hand is placed on top of the weapon), and, holding the weapon with the barrel in the direction of the enemy, bending down, vigorously runs forward, counting to himself from the moment he jumps up: “ One - I got up, two, three - I run, four - I fall, five, six - I fire". The fall is carried out on one of the knees and a hand free from weapons, somersaults are undesirable. In the presence of tall grass, it is advisable, slightly rising on the palms and socks, to move one and a half to two meters away from the place of the fall.

A platoon can rush one by one or by squads, and a squad can rush one by one, by battle groups, or simultaneously by the whole composition. Platoon (squad) rushes are made on commands:

• one by one - “A platoon (squad, group), in the direction of such and such an object (to such and such a line), in a dash, to the right (left, right and left) one at a time - FORWARD”;
• by department (to combat groups) - “A platoon (squad), in the direction of such and such an object (to such and such a line), in a dash, such and such (such and such) squad (group) - FORWARD”;
• all staff - "Separation, in the direction of such and such an object (to such and such a line), by a dash - FORWARD."

When running one by one according to the executive command “FORWARD”, the right-flank (left-flank or both left-flank and right-flank) jumps up and, having quickly run the intended distance, takes a pre-selected position (place for shooting), is prepared for the opening of fire and covers the movement of the second (second).

Simultaneously with the stop of the first (first), the second (second) starts to run; advancing to the line of the first (first) crosser, he takes a pre-selected position (shooting place), prepares for the opening of fire and covers the movement of the first (first). The first (first), running across when the second (second) stops, runs over in the same way until reaching the indicated line.

In the course of special motor training classes, trainees should be constantly reminded that a soldier's life depends on the ability to competently perform a run and cover fire with his comrades who run across.

Walking on the battlefield

Crawling locomotion on the battlefield is also an important element of the special motor training of a serviceman, since, moving by crawling, a serviceman is the least vulnerable.

On the battlefield, crawling is performed on the elbows and forearms with alternate kicking off with the legs, the weapon is at the ready. At the same time, the chest and pelvis do not come off the ground, the serviceman looks straight ahead, never for a second losing sight of the battlefield (photo row 1.5).

§ 7.1.3. The main methods of evacuating the wounded from the battlefield

Practice shows that the inability to properly take out the wounded from under fire cost the lives of many servicemen. Let's consider two main ways of evacuating the wounded: dragging in the prone position (under fire) and carrying on the shoulder (calm environment or low density of fire).

Drag while lying down begins with the fact that the weapon of the wounded is thrown over the shoulder so that it is on the right side of the dragger. The wounded man is placed with his back on the bent left leg of the person dragging his head in the direction of movement. If the injury allows, the dragger places his weapon with the bolt handle up on the wounded man's chest. Holding the weapon with his right hand, grabbing the wounded by the belt with his left hand, pushing off with his right and partially with his left legs, the dragger makes a jerk with his whole body in the direction of evacuation, dragging the wounded along with him. At the same time, the dragger must remain facing the enemy, holding a loaded weapon with his right hand, ready for use. Then, bending both legs, he repeats the movements described above (photo series 1.6). Dragging in the prone position is carried out until the moment when it is possible to carry the wounded on the shoulder.

Dragging the wounded in the prone position

Carrying the wounded on the shoulder begins with lifting the wounded and putting him on his knees. In this case, the evacuator is facing the wounded in a squat or with emphasis on one knee. The wounded man, on his knees, is held in vertical position, due to pressing the evacuating him to himself. Then the evacuee, grabbing the belt, jerks the wounded man over his left shoulder and stands up, holding the wounded man by the legs with his left hand. At the same time, the right hand is on the weapon, ready for use (photo series 1.7).

Carrying the wounded on the shoulder

In the presence of a cape, the method presented below is more convenient for evacuating a wounded person under fire (photo row 1.8).

The corner of the cape, forming the hood, is tied with a simple semi-knot. The wounded man is laid on his back with his head near the knot, with his feet towards the opposite corner. The corners to the right and left of the wounded are tightened on his chest with a straight knot. Further, the dragger lays down near the wounded man with his head in the direction of evacuation. The weapon of the wounded is behind the back of the dragger. He lays his weapon, ready for battle, on the wounded (if the injury allows), or to his right, while the belt of the weapon is thrown over the neck of the dragger. The half-bent leg is wound under the legs of the wounded, the second leg, bent at the knee, rests the heel on the ground. Holding the corner of the raincoat with both hands, the dragger lifts the wounded with the movement of a half-bent leg and at the same time, pushing off the ground with his leg bent at the knee, makes a jerk with his whole body, dragging the wounded with him. Then the described movements are repeated.

The platoon commander sets the students a combat mission to advance to the place of working out educational issues. During the movement to the tactical field, questions are worked out on the actions of students on the introductory when the enemy uses weapons of mass destruction.

A section is marked on the tactical field, where methods of movement in combat conditions are practiced. First, one of the ways of moving on the battlefield is shown and its training is carried out. At the end, training is made in moving on the battlefield in general in various ways.

Organizational and methodical instructions.

(extract from BUSV part 3)

The movement of soldiers in battle when operating on foot. There are the following methods and techniques for moving a soldier in combat while acting on foot:

- accelerated step, full-length running or crouching;

dashes;

Crawling.

When operating on foot, sections of the terrain hidden from enemy observation and not penetrated by fire are overcomebrisk pace or running. In the same way, the soldier moves during the attack. While holding a weapon in position for the immediate opening of fire, on the throw, or the butt pressed to the side.

For covert rendezvous with the enemy in open areas, dashes. Before the start of movement, the weapon is put on the fuse. The crossing is made according to team "So-and-so to run there and there- FORWARD!".

To run from a prone positionon a preliminary command, the soldier must first outline the path of movement and shelter, places of stops for a break, and on the executive command, quickly rise, as when executing the command"GET UP!", and quickly run to the intended place, lie on the ground with a run and quickly crawl away (roll) to the side. The length of the dash can be from 20 to 40 steps. Having reached the line planned or indicated by the commander, the soldier takes up a place for observation and, having prepared to shooting, covers with fire the dashes of other soldiers. The position of the weapon during the defection is at the choice of the defector.

On the battlefield, if the enemy conducts strong targeted fire, or, for example, in reconnaissance, when it is necessary to approach the enemy unnoticed and suddenly attack him, they move by crawling. Depending on the terrain and vegetation cover, you can crawl in a plastunsky manner on half-fours or on your side at the command"So-and-so crawl over there- FORWARD!". On a preliminary command, the soldier must first outline the path of movement and shelter, places of stops or respite, and, on the executive command, crawl over in one of the indicated ways.

To crawl in a plastunsky way, one must lie down tightly on the ground, take the weapon by the strap at the upper swivel with the right hand and place it on the forearm of the right hand. Raise the right (left) leg and at the same time extend the left (right) arm as far as possible, then, pushing off with the bent leg, move the body forward and raise the other leg, extend the other arm and thus continue the movement. When crawling, do not raise your head high.

To crawl on half-fours, the soldier must kneel and lean on his forearms (on the hands), then raise the bent right (left) leg under the chest, at the same time stretch the left (right) arm forward, move the body forward until the right (left) is fully extended legs, at the same time pushing the other bent leg under him, and, stretching the other arm forward, continue the movement. In this case, the weapon should be held in the same way as when crawling in a plastunsky way (when relying on the hands - in the right hand).

To crawl on your side, you need to lie on your left side, then, stretching your left leg forward, bent at the knee, lean on the forearm of your left hand, lean your right foot on the ground with your heel as close to you as possible; unbending the right leg, move the body forward without changing the position of the left leg, then continue the movement in the same way. When crawling on the side, the weapon should be held with the right hand, placing it on the thigh of the left leg. This method is most often used for carrying ammunition and cargo on the battlefield.

When crawling, the soldier must continuously watch the battlefield and be constant to open fire from weapons.

2. The main part.

a) moving at an accelerated pace and running.

The leader on the ground indicates to the students the conditional location of the enemy and explains the procedure for moving to the line of transition to the attack. Students are told that areas of the terrain that are hidden from enemy observation and not shot through by enemy fire are overcome at an accelerated pace or run. Depending on the depth of cover, a soldier can move to full height or crouch. After showing the order of working out this educational issue, the leader gives a command, for example: "Student Petrov to the border ... such and such an accelerated step (running) march." The study question is worked out by the in-line method. During this lesson, the leader monitors the progress of the training, the correctness of the actions of students, paying attention to the position of the weapon.

b) moving in dashes.

After explaining and showing the procedure for working out the educational issue, the leader gives a command to the students, for example: "Student .. Petrov to such and such a boundary, forward." This study question is worked out by the in-line method. The teacher monitors the correctness of the actions of students, if necessary, points out errors and gives recommendations for their elimination. Particular attention is paid to the length of the dashes, the need to roll at the end of each dash, and the position of the weapon.

c) movement by crawling.

Head explains various ways crawling movements and shows how to perform them correctly on a pre-planned area using the protective properties of the terrain. Then the leader sets the task for the students at the beginning of the training. Training is carried out in a streaming method. In the course of working out the educational issue, special attention is paid to the technique of performing the movement, the use of the protective properties of the terrain, the position of the weapon during the movement.

d) the movement of a soldier in battle in various ways.

The leader in a predetermined area sets the students the task of moving to the line of transition to the attack, using various methods of movement in certain areas. In the course of this academic question, all methods of movement are worked out, the ability to correctly use the protective properties of the terrain to mask movement, temporary standards for this educational issue as a whole are worked out.

3. The final part.

Analysis of the actions of students by the leader (indicate the shortcomings identified during the development of educational issues and ways to eliminate them), the assessments received by the students during the lesson are reported.
