  1. TL TL SL AR AR R R G G LD LD LD SECURITY AA SECURITY SECURITY SECURITY A danger area is any place on a route where the leader’s estimate process tells him that his squad might be exposed to enemy observation, fire, or both. Squads try to avoid danger areas. If a squad must cross a danger area, it does so with great caution and as quickly as possible. Crossing of Danger Areas. When the squad crosses a danger area independently or as the lead clement of a larger force, it must— • Designate near- and far-side rally points. • Secure the near side (right, left flanks, and rear security). • Reconnoiter and secure the far side. • Execute crossing the danger area. • The squad leader decides how the unit will cross based on the time he has, the size of the unit, the size of the danger area, the fields of fire into the area, and the amount of security he can post. • A small unit may cross all at once, in buddy teams, or one soldier at a time. • A large unit normally crosses its elements one at a time. • As each element crosses, it moves to an overwatch position or to the far-side rally point until told to continue movement. • NOTE: The secured area must be large enough to allow the full deployment • of the remainder of the unit. RALLY POINT NOTE: This is a technique and is METT-TC dependent. NOT DRAWN TO SCALE
