- C.
150
- D.
200
Correct Answer
C. 150Explanation
During bounding overwatch, the bounding team should not move more than 150 meters forward of the overwatching team. This is because the purpose of bounding overwatch is to provide mutual support and maintain a line of sight between the teams. If the bounding team moves too far forward, they may lose visual contact with the overwatching team and compromise the effectiveness of their support. Therefore, it is important to maintain a distance of no more than 150 meters between the two teams during bounding overwatch.Rate this question:
