Equipment load spreading

---

This block is not in a published chapter and should not be relied upon.

An element can only move as fast as the heaviest person. This means that, to the greatest extent possible, all equipment should be distributed among the members of the element, to equalise weight.

A couple of examples:

• Have people carry their own PAK and other medical supplies
• Distribute ammo between members, instead of having the dedicated roles carry everything. This includes ammo that might not be usable by the person carrying it
