WWW.SURVIVALEBOOKS.COM h. The platoon is capable of preparing obstacles and installing minefields. The use of demolitions for the destruction of bridges, felling trees, and cratering roads should be considered by the platoon leader. The use of such demolitions must be coordinated with higher headquarters and be in consonance with the overall plan of defense. If authority is received from higher headquarters, the platoon leader may install protective minefields. Such minefields are covered by platoon direct fire weapons. Smoke may be used to reduce effective enemy observation and to confuse the enemy forces. The platoon should continue to strengthen the defensive positions as long as time permits. 124. Platoon Order for Defense The platoon leader issues his order orally to the key noncommissioned officers of the platoon while at the position to be defended. This enables the platoon leader and section and squad leaders to become thoroughly familiar with the area and reduces the possibility of misunderstanding. The order should be issued in time to permit the section and squad leaders to make a reconnaissance of the area to be defended. 125. Conduct of Defense a. The success of the platoon defense depends largely on the organization of the position and on the effective use of the firepower available. The defense must be conducted aggressively. The platoon leader must take advantage of enemy mistakes. The enemy should be engaged continuously from the time he is within effective range of available weapons. The platoon continues to defend its position until directed to move by higher authority. Within the platoon position, however, the platoon leader may adjust his forces as the situation develops. b. Defensive fires of the platoon are coordinated to ensure maximum effective fire during both daylight and darkness. Mutually supporting tanks cover the probable avenues of armor approach. Interlocking bands of machinegun fire should cover the entire platoon sector. The mortar places fires into areas which cannot be reached by other weapons of the platoon, particularly covered areas in which the enemy might assemble or advance through. c. In defensive situations, the platoon provides its own local security. The scouts will usually provide security to the front and flanks, and the support squad to the rear. 126.
