BR25190 U.S. Infantryman Kneeling Watching for Movement, 1943-45

Be calm, be cool, be keen – do not react quickly. Don’t move just for the sake of taking action. Without thinking or planning, that move may result in your capture or death. Size up your situation before you make a decision or move. Use all your senses to evaluate the situation. Note sounds and smells. Be sensitive to temperature changes. Be observant and above all, don’t be stupid.
