Summary: Army Instructional film illustrating the principles and techniques of fire and manoeuvre, a method used by infantry to provide continuous fire support while advancing.
Description: The objective for a company attack is described, orders given and the three platoons that make up the company begin to advance. The soldiers move forward, using the ground for cover as far as possible before making the final assault on the enemy positions. The film stresses the importance of good communications and identifies the points at which control passes from company to platoon and then to section level.
