Is the 3-5 second rush movement technique selected when there is cover or concealment along your route?
The 3-5 second rush—as the name implies—offers you the fastest movement with the least protection. You will be exposed. Use the rush when you have no cover or concealment, and breaks in enemy fire allow you to expose yourself briefly.
Which individual movement technique is used when there is low to no cover but speed is essential?
Crawling: There are two types of ways to crawl through obstacles; The High Crawl and Low Crawl. (1) The first type of crawl is the high crawl. Use this when you have some cover or concealment, but not enough to stand. Of the crawls, this is the one to use when speed is essential but you must maintain a low profile.
