    In tactical deployment situations, what movement technique do you use when speed is required and you cannot use the rushing technique?

    • A.

      A. Roll.

    • B.

      B. High crawl.

    • C.

      C. Low crawl.

    • D.

      D. Spider crawl.

    Correct Answer
    B. B. High crawl.
    Explanation
    In tactical deployment situations, when speed is required and the rushing technique cannot be used, the high crawl movement technique is used. The high crawl involves moving forward by keeping the upper body raised off the ground and supporting the movement with the knees and elbows. This technique allows for faster movement while still maintaining a low profile and minimizing exposure to enemy fire. The roll technique involves rolling on the ground and is not suitable for situations where speed is required. The low crawl technique involves moving forward with the entire body close to the ground, and the spider crawl technique is not a recognized movement technique in tactical deployment situations.
