Standards: Reacted to each situation by shouting "Incoming," followed the leader's directions, if available. Took or maintained cover.

Posted Tuesday, October 11, 2005

Standards: Reacted to each situation by shouting "Incoming," followed the leader's directions, if available.  Took or maintained cover.

Performance Steps

1.   Shout "incoming" in a loud, easily recognizable voice.

2.   Look to your leader for additional instructions.

3.   Remain in your defensive position (if appropriate), making no unnecessary movements that could alert the enemy to your location.
