*Before moving troops, check for the enemy by firing into areas of
*possible ambush.  This can flush out the enemy, forcing them to
*retreat.  Try it now.  Fire into the building to the west by issuing
*the Fire command to the team at the tip of the gray arrow in the
*center of the screen.

*When moving around the battlefield, think about exposure.  Spray
*gunfire at possible enemy sites to provide cover as troops move.
*
*For this exercise, the second infantry team will provide cover for
*you by firing at the large building as you move your first team.  Try
*it now.  Move your first team up to the wall designated by the arrow.
