It is necessary to learn and practice how to conduct Individual Movement Techniques for your own protection. Find out here the military tactic that can help you to survive.
3. Small Group Movements
Remember, this is a military tactic… movement often is
paired with suppressive fire.
• This principle is called “fire and movement” and this is the
first IMT.
• Also known as leap-frogging if done multiple times

4. Fire and Movement
Basic Steps of Fire and Movement:
• You provide suppressive fire at an enemy.
• Another group or pair advances to close in on the target.
• Then they provide suppressive fire at the enemy
• Then you advance toward the target.

5. • One of the most common IMTs
is taking cover.
• It doesn’t matter where the
danger is coming from, many
times you will attempt cover.
• Cover = Invisibility and
Shielding (dirt bank)
• Concealment = Only being
hidden (bathroom door)

6. You Encounter a Flank Attack
What if you get fired on from an enemy flank?
• You may decide to immediately dive behind cover.
• Using suppressive fire, everyone scatters
• This is a strategic placement, so you have multiple attack
directions.
• Everyone is now in place, now they look to you for direction.

7. The Benefits of Individual
Movement Techniques
• They benefit any squad, platoon, group, or pair
• They put you immediately in safe defensive or offensive
positions
• Something happens
• Everyone takes a predictable and beneficial action
• Now the “leader” can quickly assess the situation
• Follow up actions can then be taken based on circumstances
