Excerpt: ... is near, especially in hostile country, but here the time saved more than justifies the use of the direct route. Problem No. 11 (Cavalry) 1043 . Same situation as Problem 1. Required, 1. The formation and conduct of the patrol as far as Frenchman's. Answer. Sergeant Jones determines to move at a walk and trot (5 miles per hour) in order to reach the vicinity of Kickapoo and take up a position of observation before night. Sergeant Jones and Private B are in the lead, 2 men about 100 yards to the rear, the remaining 2 men about 75 yards in the rear of these. They move out at a trot along the road until Atchison Cross is reached.

The same formation and gait are maintained as far as Gauss' (pd'), where a walk is taken to rest the horses and to gain opportunity to see if any enemy are holding the bridge at Frenchman's. Situation: Just as the patrol comes to a walk Sergeant Jones sees what appears to be a dismounted patrol moving south over the ridge about 650 yards north of Frenchman's. He can see three men. Required, 2. Action taken by Sergeant Jones. Answer. The patrol is...
