"Each number stands for a direction. Which is important, since you're close to getting to those drills as soon as I find a partner for you to work with. Especially for you. Soon as we get you into some marksmanship drills with a sniper rifle and scope, I'm going to start teaching you some sniper tac. Basically, when we get to small unit drills, you'll be spotting... telling people from a distance where people are by clock drills... so the field team can adjust and know where people are with only a couple words, even when they're out of visual with you. All of them will be trained to know that twelve means they're dead ahead, six means someone has gotten behind them, where one, eleven and so on are so they can adjust without seeing the enemy.
First though, you and a training partner are going to practice fighting back to back, practicing coordinating quick turns and telling your partner where they'll be striking by clock face, so they know where to attack as soon as they make a turn, without having to locate an enemy. Its a combination of footwork drill, getting used to working with a partner drill, and coordinates drill. You'll both set a fixed 'clock', and be helping coordinate for each other while back to back and moving."
