DEFENDING AGAINST RAIDS<br />

Effective defense against ground raids requires timely intelligence,<br />

plans and battle drills, prepared fighting and sheltered positions, a<br />

ready reaction force, accessible weapons and ammunition, escape<br />

routes, security patrols and sentries and early warning elements posted<br />

far enough away to provide adequate early warning. Rehearsal <strong>of</strong><br />

plans, battle drills, <strong>the</strong> ready reaction force and escape and withdrawal<br />

are essential to effective defense against raids.
