  MOVEMENT TECHNIQUES
  2-17. Units use the movement formations in conjunction with three movement techniques: traveling,
  traveling overwatch, and bounding overwatch. Movement techniques limit the unit’s exposure to enemy fire
  and position the unit to react to enemy contact. Units select the appropriate movement technique based on
  the chance of enemy contact. Figure 2-9 illustrates when a unit is most likely to use each technique. While
  moving, individual Soldiers and vehicles use the terrain to protect themselves when enemy contact is possible
  or expected. They use natural cover and concealment to avoid enemy fires. Soldiers and vehicle crews—
  * Take active countermeasures, such as using obscuration and direct and indirect fire, to suppress
  or obscure suspected enemy positions.
  * Cross open areas quickly and avoid large open areas, especially areas surrounded by high ground
  or terrain that can cover and conceal enemy forces.
  * Avoid possible kill zones because it is easier to cross difficult terrain than to fight enemy forces
  on unfavorable terms.
  * Do not silhouette themselves against the skyline.
  * Do not move directly forward from a concealed firing position.
