Skill
FM/BS-504.V3.00 - Bound using alternating bounding
Skill

Bound using the follow method:

  1. The lead element calls for bounding and designates which element will move first
    1. e.g. “This is actual. Alternating Fireteam bounding North. 1 move first.”
  2. The first element acknowledges and shouts "Moving"
  3. The first element moves to a position and holds shouting “Set”
  4. The second element shouts “Moving” and moves to a new position past the first element, confirming “Set”
  5. The first element now moves, again shouting “Moving”, again passing the other element, to a futher position and holds, shouting “Set” again
  6. The second element again calls and moves past the first element.

This process is repeated until the unit reaches the desired end position.

Compared with FM/BS-503 - Bound using successive bounding this process is faster, but provides a lower level of security

FM/BS-504.V1.00 - Bounds using Alternating Bounding
Skill

Alternating bounding overwatch is the fastest of the two, sacrificing some security for additional speed. In this mode, the teams bound past each other before stopping and allowing the other team to pass them.
