Chapter 6 FORMATIONS AND TECHNIQUES 6-4. Tactical movement includes: Formations, including: Column. Line. Vee. Wedge. File. Echelon right/left. Techniques, including: Traveling. Traveling overwatch. Bounding overwatch. 6-5. The troop commander is involved in planning, supervising, and refining both the execution of movements during the move and the follow-on operations after the destination is reached. TACTICAL FOOT MARCH 6-6. The DRT also conducts a tactical foot march. A tactical foot march is a movement used to relocate units within an AO to prepare for other combat operations. Whenever possible, the troop marches in multiple columns over multiple routes to reduce closing time. A large column may be composed of a number of subdivisions, each under the control of a subordinate leader. March columns are composed of four elements: <strong>Reconnaissance</strong> party. Quartering party. Main body. Trail party. RECONNAISSANCE PARTY 6-7. The reconnaissance party consists of at least one scout section per assigned route and, if available, supporting aerial assets. The reconnaissance party moves out as early as possible to reconnoiter the assigned route(s). Depending on the expected threat, the reconnaissance party is supported with engineers or other combat assets. The reconnaissance party’s critical tasks are to: Determine trafficability. Identify choke points. Identify and mark bypasses; clear obstacles within capabilities. Systematically report progress. Establish traffic control points, as required. QUARTERING PARTY 6-8. The troop employs a quartering party—actually a composite of the quartering parties from the scout platoons—if it plans to occupy an assembly area upon arrival at the march destination. The DRT 1SG normally controls troop quartering party activities. The quartering party normally follows the reconnaissance party and usually moves by infiltration. MAIN BODY 6-9. The main body is composed of the bulk of the troop organized into serials and march units. The DRT moves as platoon, section, and team-size units. Units move and halt under the control of a single 6-2 ATTP 3-20.97 16 November 2010
Other Tactical Operations commander using voice, visual signals, or digital communications. March units move as task organized for the follow-on mission whenever possible. TRAIL PARTY 6-10. The trail party is the last march unit in the troop serial. The DRT likely contains all unit vehicles and sustainment elements of the troop under control of the troop XO. PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS 6-11. The following factors of foot march planning are considered: Time available. Distance of the move. Current threat and friendly situation. Follow-on mission. Availability and condition of routes. Task organization. Numbers of personnel to move. Mobility assets available. Fire support planning. Aviation support (SUAS, rotary, fixed wing). 6-12. Discipline is necessary to execute a foot march with precision. The troop TACSOP should consider the following: March unit organization and order. March rate factors. March unit intervals. Intervals between personnel. Actions on contact. Actions at halts. Security. Any contingency plans necessary. Communications. GCMs. SECTION III – AERIAL MOVEMENTS 6-13. The DRT may use fixed-wing or helicopter assets to conduct troop air movements. Assault and ground support helicopter units routinely support the DRT by inserting the reconnaissance element via fastrope, single-point, or landing in an LZ. These missions may require special patrol infiltration/exfiltration system (SPIES) or fast rope insertion/extraction system (FRIES) equipment, rappelling ropes, hoists, auxiliary fuel tanks, and additional training or rehearsals. The inserting or extracting aviation element during an infiltration operation commonly consists of UH-60s and AH-64s (or other armed escort). In accordance with unit TACSOP, UH-60s conduct multiple false insertions before and after actual insertion. Providing security, AH-64s may conduct feints or demonstrations to help cover the operation. PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS 6-14. The squadron and the IBCT plan all air movement for the DRT. Planning may include requirements for the air infiltration and exfiltration and include: 16 November 2010 ATTP 3-20.97 6-3
