CHAPTER VI: MARCHES AND BIVOUAC

SECTION 1 MARCHES

33. General. — Marches in jungle operations will be affected by the size of the unit involved, capacity and number of trails, distance to be covered, season of the year, methods for supply and evacuation and means of transportation. It is essential that all movement in the jungle be planned carefully in advance with these factors in mind. Route reconnaissance and a study of maps and aerial photographs will enable the commander to select routes offering the least physical resistance to his troops. Native guides, when they are available and considered reliable, will be of assistance to troops on cross country movements.
