If you are not sure whether there is an enemy around the corner, see Figure 23.
Throw a British (time delay) hand grenade against the wall of the building opposite
and then listen. If you hear any screams of injured enemy soldiers, you have con-
firmation that there was someone behind that corner. If you don’t hear anything, you
cannot really be sure, but nobody will kill you from close range whilst they are
crouched down protecting themselves against the explosion.
As soon as you get to an elevated position, immediately carry out a recon-
naissance of the vicinity. You always see more from higher positions, and the sur-
rounding area may be suitable for a sniper position.
Forward Movement in Formation
It is definitely safer to move alongside buildings; the walls provide full side cover
with street lampposts providing partial cover against enemy fire. For movement
through the streets, use the instructions provided in Figure 24. A machine-gunner and
a sniper lie in the middle of the street (both of them are effective for longer distances)
and the men armed with submachine guns move alongside the buildings (they are
effective for close distances). If there is a row of street lights, place your sniper and
machine-gunner in a way that will allow them, in case of need, to take cover behind
the street lamp posts. After your submachine gunners have taken their positions,
move the other team members forward as close as possible to the walls alongside
submachine gunners. When you are sure that there is no danger, you may move all
your men forward. Don’t forget to check the rear of your group occasionally.
