    What is your first course of action when caught in an assault?

    • Throw hand grenades

    • Look for the enemy and return fire

    • Immediately return fire and assault the enemy

    • Immediately return fire and take a covered position

    Correct Answer

    In tactical deployment situations, what movement technique do you use when speed is required and you cannot use the rushing technique?

    • Roll

    • High Crawl

    • Low Crawl

    • Spider Crawl

    Correct Answer
    A. High Crawl

    In tactical deployment situations, when speed is required but the rushing technique cannot be used, the high crawl movement technique is employed. The high crawl involves moving forward by keeping the body off the ground, supporting the weight on the hands and knees, and moving one limb at a time. This technique allows for a faster movement while still maintaining a low profile and minimizing the risk of being detected or targeted by the enemy. The high crawl is a commonly used movement technique in military and tactical situations.

    Which type of attack may involve an insider threat?

    • Standoff

    • Penetration

    • Chemical, biological

    • Information operation

    Which target indicator is among the most difficult for the enemy to avoid?

    • Sound

    • Movement

    • Regularity of outline

    • Contrast with the background

    Correct Answer
    A. Contrast with the background
    Explanation
    Contrast with the background is among the most difficult target indicator for the enemy to avoid because it makes the target stand out and be easily distinguishable from its surroundings. When there is a high contrast between the target and the background, it becomes harder for the enemy to blend in or camouflage themselves effectively. This makes it easier for the enemy to spot and engage the target, increasing the chances of detection and potential harm to the enemy.

    Who primarily uses alternate fighting positions?

    • Sniper

    • Rifleman

    • Grenadier

    • Crew-served weapons operator

    Correct Answer
    A. Crew-served weapons operator
    Explanation
    Crew-served weapons operators primarily use alternate fighting positions. This is because crew-served weapons, such as heavy machine guns or mortars, require a team of operators to effectively operate them. These weapons are usually heavy and require stability and precision to aim and fire accurately. Alternate fighting positions allow the crew-served weapons operators to take cover and engage the enemy from different locations, providing them with better tactical advantage and reducing the risk of being easily targeted by the enemy.

    What illusion does the ground sloping upward method of range determination give to the observer?

    • Greater distance

    • Shorter distance

    • Equal distance

    • Real distance

    Correct Answer
    A. Greater distance
    Explanation
    The ground sloping upward method of range determination gives the illusion of a greater distance to the observer. This means that when the ground appears to slope upward, objects may appear farther away than they actually are. This can be misleading for the observer, as it may cause them to underestimate the actual distance to the objects in question.

    Explanation
    Security forces flight leaders or subordinate leaders use direct fire control measures to control their defenders. Direct fire control measures involve the use of direct fire weapons, such as rifles or handguns, to engage and eliminate threats in a precise and targeted manner. This allows the leaders to have immediate control over their defenders and respond quickly to any threats or situations that may arise. Indirect fire control measures, on the other hand, involve the use of artillery or mortars to engage targets from a distance. Sustained fire control measures involve continuous and prolonged firing, while suppressive fire control measures aim to suppress the enemy's ability to engage effectively.

    On the AN/PVS- 14 monocular night vision device (MNVD), what component enables the operator to see the azimuth readings in the monocular?

    • Compass

    • Tethering cord

    • De-mist shield

    • Sacrificial window

    Correct Answer
    A. Compass
    Explanation
    The correct answer is compass. The compass component on the AN/PVS-14 monocular night vision device enables the operator to see the azimuth readings in the monocular. The compass provides the operator with the direction or bearing, allowing them to navigate and orient themselves in low-light or dark environments. This feature is crucial for military personnel or individuals who rely on night vision devices for navigation and situational awareness.

    How should pre-combat inspections be tailored?

    • Location

    • Weather conditions

    • Number of personnel assigned

    • Specific unit and mission requirements

    Correct Answer
    A. Specific unit and mission requirements
    Explanation
    Pre-combat inspections should be tailored based on specific unit and mission requirements. This means that the inspections should be customized to meet the unique needs and objectives of the particular unit and mission at hand. Factors such as location, weather conditions, and number of personnel assigned may also be taken into consideration, but the primary focus should be on the specific unit and mission requirements to ensure that the inspections are effective and relevant.

    What convoy movement formation can be used to block third party traffic and assist in changing lanes?

    • File

    • Offset

    • Staggered

    • Inverted (T)

    Correct Answer
    A. Offset
    Explanation
    Offset formation can be used to block third party traffic and assist in changing lanes. In an offset formation, vehicles are positioned diagonally to the direction of travel, creating a barrier that prevents other vehicles from entering the lane being changed. This formation allows for better visibility and coordination among the convoy vehicles, ensuring a safe and efficient lane change.

    What terrain feature is a short, continuous sloping line of higher ground, normally jutting out from the side of a ridge?

    • Cut

    • Spur

    • Cliff

    • Draw

    Correct Answer
    A. Spur
    Explanation
    A spur is a short, continuous sloping line of higher ground that typically extends from the side of a ridge. It is a terrain feature that can be found in mountainous or hilly areas. Spur formations are often created by erosion or tectonic activity and can provide natural barriers or obstacles for travel. They can also offer vantage points for observation or defense.

    Which method lets you locate an unknown point using at least two known positions on the ground?

    • Resection

    • Intersection

    • Modified resection

    • Straightedge method

    Correct Answer
    A. Intersection
    Explanation
    The method that allows you to locate an unknown point using at least two known positions on the ground is called "Intersection". This technique involves identifying two or more known positions or landmarks and then using lines or angles to determine the location where they intersect. By finding the point of intersection, you can pinpoint the unknown location. This method is commonly used in surveying, navigation, and other applications that require determining precise positions on the ground.
