Judging Distances
Accurate judging of distances is important in order to report his position
While shooting , shooters will also need to account for bullet drop as a result of distance between target and themselves
![Page 4: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Methods for judging distances 1) Unit of measure
• A football field is about 100 metres in length
• By estimating the number of football fields in between you and the target
The unit of measure can only be used if the:
• distance is less than 300 metres
• ground between you and the target can be seen
![Page 5: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Methods for judging distances (con’t) Unit of measure (con’t)
• Stretch your hand and point your thumb upwards
• At 100m, the height of a person is about the length of a thumb nail
• At 100m, facial features can still be seen
• At 200m, less details can be seen
![Page 6: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Methods for judging distances• Due to perspective, the distance between
100m to 200m will appear to be only 2/3 the distance from you to 100m
• Similarly, the distance between 200m to 300m will only appear to be 2/3 of the distance between 200m to 300m

Methods for judging distances
Target distance
100m 200m 300m
Length of thumb nail
Full length 2/3 4/9
Description of target
Facial features can be seen clearly
Facial features can barely be seen
Facial features can not be seen

Methods for judging distances
2) Halving method• Used for distances above 300m
• Pick a point between you and the target. Using the unit of measure method, find the distance to the halfway mark and double it to find the range between you and the target.
• Terrain and weather need to be considered when using this method
![Page 9: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Judging distances Factors affecting judging of distances
![Page 10: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Target Indication
Important to give target indications in the ‘GIRL’ format and ‘CLAP’
‘GIRL’ refers to: G – Group
I – Indication (give direction to look)
R – Range (to target)
L – Location and Description (of target)
![Page 11: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Target indication
When giving order, it is important to give it in the ‘CLAP’ manner
‘CLAP’ refers to:
C – Clearly
L – Loudly
A – As an Order
P – With Pauses
In a battle situation, there will be a lot of noise and if you do not indicate as suggested, you will not be heard by others , or your platoon might not know you are issuing a command
![Page 12: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Target indication
Types of target indication
I. Direct method
II. Clock ray method
III. Finger breadth method
IV. Fire observation
![Page 13: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Methods for target indication 1) Direct Method
• Used when the target is obvious and arc of fire known to all (Everyone knows what the arc of fire means)
![Page 14: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Methods for target indication Direct Method
E.g (using GIRL)
• G - SECTION
• I - ¼ Left – COCONUT TREE
• R - TWO HUNDRED (metres)
• L - One ENEMY BEHIND TREE
![Page 15: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Methods for target indication 2) Clock ray method
• Used when target is hard to identify ( Behind cover etc)
• Find a prominent reference point (e.g. windmill, buildings), and imagine a clock on the reference point
![Page 16: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

![Page 18: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Methods for target indication 3) Finger breadth method
• Used when the target is difficult to identify + At longer range
• Procedure same as clock ray method except that fingers are used to indicate the target , instead of a clock.
![Page 19: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Methods for target indication 4) Fire observation method
• Used as a last resort when there are no prominent objects / thick vegetation / at night (cannot see clearly)
• Easiest and quickest method in indicating target , but gives away your position
![Page 22: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Movement by day
It is very important to know how to move in danger areas or over obstacles to reduce the chances of being spotted by enemy
It is also important to move only short distances at a time. Halt. Listen. Observe. Then move again
Look for the next spot before leaving your concealment
![Page 24: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Movement by day
Types of movement by day:
I. The walk
II. The rush
III. High crawl
IV. Low crawl
V. The roll
![Page 25: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Movement by day
1) The walk• The walk is used under the following
conditions:
i. When hunting the enemy in an area.
ii. When cover and concealment is about shoulder height.
• Always look in front and direction of enemy
![Page 26: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Movement by day The walk- high alert
• High alert is adopted when the enemy is very near and contact is imminent
• Movement is slow and cautious
• Always look through the scope , while occasionally glancing downwards (See what you are stepping on)
![Page 27: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Movement by day The walk- low alert
• Low alert is adopted when you don’t know where the enemy is
• Movement is faster but cautious
• Always do a sweeping motion while walking
![Page 28: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Movement by day
2) The rush• The Rush is used:
i. When fired upon by enemy and no cover or concealment in the prone position.
ii. When moving from one position to another.
iii. When speed is critical.
![Page 29: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Movement by day
The rush• In prone position, draw your arms into your
body, raise your body
• Run to your next position within 4 seconds
• Fall forward and adopt prone firing position
Important- do not stay up for more than 4 seconds or enemy will have enough time to aim and fire at you
![Page 30: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

3) High crawl• Used when route selected provides
cover and concealment up to waist level (Tall grass etc)
• Movement is similar to baby crawl on knees and hands
![Page 31: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Movement by day
High crawl• Rifle must be held by master hand,
barrel facing forward, dustcover facing up and muzzle off the ground
• Always observe enemy’s direction when moving
![Page 32: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Movement by day
4) Low crawl• Also called leopard crawl
• Used when route provides cover and concealment that is very low
• Keep body as flat as possible to the ground
• Dust cover must be facing up, muzzle off the ground
• Keep heels, head and elbow low and observe enemy
![Page 33: Individual Field Craft (IFC) VS NCC Land. Individual field craft (IFC) List of topics: 1) Judging distances 2) Target indication 3) Movement by day.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649d305503460f94a0944a/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
