Does anyone know why they use this formation?
What is the Tactical Purpose of this formation?
Pros? Cons?

Thank you
When I was in Desert Storm we didn’t use mall security guards to escort vehicles.

We do not discuss current operations or tactics employed by the US military on this board.

First post and BANNED, have a very SF day.
