Explanation of Letter Symbols

(_a_) The location of the bivouac of the main body of the Blue force.

This should be located at a central point with reference to the outpost

line.

(_b_) Designate the general line of the Blue outpost.

(_c_) The location of Support No. 2. It should be located at a central

point with reference to the line of outguards. (_d_)-(_e_)-(_f_) The

location of the three outguards posted from Support No. 2.

In fitting this exercise to the ground the location of the outguards

should be selected first. Care should be taken to so locate them that

the ground is suitable for illustrating the tactical features that are

to be brought out and discussed in the Terrain Exercise. The location of

Support No. 2 should then be selected and finally that of the Blue main

body. If you have had a previous Terrain Exercise covering the subject

of outposts it may be convenient and advantageous to base this Terrain

Exercise on the same situation and covering the same ground.
