At each range with the rapid fire 5 additional shots should be fired with the battle sight and with half the allotted time.

(f) A course should be laid off in an open field.  The base should be marked.  At least 5 natural objects whose distances are to be estimated should be placed so that they are clearly visible from the base.  The objects should be men standing, kneeling or prone, and should be placed from 550 to 1,200 yards from the base.  Each company should be conducted to the base and extended along it, backs towards the objects, in single rank.  Each man should have a pencil and paper.  The objects whose distances are to be estimated are pointed out by the company commander and the men told to estimate and record their estimates.  At the conclusion of the exercise, the company commander should read off the correct distances, and have each man figure his per cent of error.  It is important that the men know the correct distances while the objects are still in view.

For record, paragraph 85, s.a.f.m. should be followed.

Remember that there are four principal ways to estimate distances by:  1, it cannot be more than a certain distance, and it cannot be less than a certain distance—­take the mean; 2, divide the distance into a certain number of familiar lengths; select a halfway point, estimate this and multiply by 2; 3, estimate the distance along a parallel line, as a road having well defined objects; 4, take the mean of several estimates.
