peer agreement (net): +1obstacle platoon Explanation: Assault and obstacle platoon - відповідник "взводу загороджень". Звісно компонент assault ніби відсутній, проте термінологія відповідна. Почитайте і переконайтесь http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/library/policy/army/f... The company team may be task organized in one of several ways: with an engineer platoon (or squad) and an assault section for breaching operations; with the engineer platoon(s) in emplacement of tactical obstacles during engagement area development; or with the assault and obstacle platoon in constructing survivability positions during BP preparation. In addition, the team may attach its mine plow or roller tanks to the engineer company when the engineers serve as the breach force in a task force breaching operation. (NOTE: For missions in which the company team is task organized with an engineer platoon, the team commander should expect the engineer platoon leader to take part in development of the team’s plan; the platoon leader will provide expertise in terrain analysis and employment of the engineer assets.) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 22 hrs (2007-08-09 16:58:26 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- вибачте, ASSAULT and Obstacle Platoon (пропустила слово) Example sentence(s):
