Abstract:

The paper deals with recognition and use of natural and man-made objects for protection against bullets, fragments, and blast, including nuclear fire and CBR agents with concealment against enemy ground and aerial observation through use of natural and artificial camouflage, including the camouflage of exposed skin surfaces and with the maintenance of light, noise, and odor discipline. Use of stealthy movement techniques reaction to enemy flares or other illumination action against enemy ground radar, infrared illumination, and image-intensification devices and the use of weather and battle noises to cover movement are included.
