How is the Cover and Move tactic defined?

• A. Teamwork
• B. Individual initiative
• C. Strategic planning
• D. Control of tempo

Answer: (A)

Cover and Move is a teamwork-centered tactic: it relies on coordinated action and mutual support from the team to relocate safely under pressure. In practice, some team members provide cover or suppressive support while others move to a new position, and the whole group advances together with coordinated timing and communication. This approach depends on trust, clear roles, and synchronized timing, showing how multiple people working together achieve a safer outcome. It isn’t about one person acting alone, nor is it about long-term planning, or merely slowing or speeding the action; those aspects are secondary to the essential cooperative movement and protection provided by the team.
