Ps

An after thought....... as I was trained.
The Abatis:
Trees should fall at a 45 degree angle to the road.
Charges placed 3 to 5 ft above the ground.
Taking down at least six. three on both sides.
For a length of at least 75 meters.

The fun stuff comes in (as posted earlier) figuring out the amount of explosive. External or internal formulas,the type tree and so on. The "P" factor is always a favorite for us, especially used with a ribbon charge.
