What should be avoided to ensure effective camouflage in movement?

To ensure effective camouflage during movement, it's important to minimize exposure in open areas where visibility is high and cover is limited. Moving through open fields can significantly compromise a unit’s ability to remain concealed, as there are fewer natural elements to break up the outline of personnel or allow for cover from potential observers or enemy forces.

Effective camouflage relies on blending into the environment and utilizing available cover and concealment. Open fields often provide clear sightlines, making it easier for adversaries to detect movement. Staying close to the terrain allows individuals to leverage natural features that can shield them from sight, while darker materials used for concealment can enhance the effectiveness of camouflage if they match the surrounding environment. Moving through wooded areas also provides ample cover and concealment from enemy observation, making these strategies more effective than traversing through open fields.
