c. be located in an area where damage will not incur large compensation costs; and
d. be easily accessible for both participants and spectators.
Stands should be sited where spectators can see all aspects and should not face, if at all possible,
into the sun or prevailing wind. A minimum number of stands should be used. Movement from
stand to stand takes time, irritates spectators and upsets the continuity of the demonstration.
34. Adequate signing and marking of routes and stands is most important. If notices are clear
and foolproof, spectators can concentrate on the demonstration without being distracted by
administrative details. The following points should be noted:
a. Delineate the stand area with tape.
b. Mark "in" and "out" routes with notice boards and/or tape.
c. The controller (or commentator) should have assistants or guides pointing out
features and items of importance.
d. The controller and any assistants.should carry or wear distinguishing marks.
e. If necessary, sign and mark the area of the demonstration itself, even at the
expense of realism if it helps to emphasize the lessons.
35. The following points apply to public address equipment:
a. Make use of loudspeakers, particularly with large audiences.
b. Check the placing of the speaker(s), to ensure everyone can hear.
c. Test speakers at a rehearsal to see if and when speech can be heard, particularly in
a noisy demonstration.
d. Have a reserve speaker, microphone and a technician close at hand.
36. When possible, communications for the control of demonstrations should be triplicated,
ie, radio, line and visual signal. All three means must be rehearsed in advance. Whatever the
scale of communications, a safety net is required for live fire demonstrations. This should be
separate from the control net. In a large demonstration involving a number of different arms,
each arm needs its own separate communications but all are coordinated from a central station.
Once a live demonstration is under way it must be possible to stop it hurriedly or modify it in the
event of accident or other unforeseen circumstance.
37. A demonstration held in rain or very cold weather is of little value. Therefore:
a. Provide cover close to the stand if it is not possible to cover the stand itself.
b. Refreshments located near the stand are always welcome.
If possible alternative programmes should be planned if the demonstration has to be cancelled as
a result of bad weather, particularly if spectators have come a long way.
38. Even where senior officers are concerned, try to reduce the number of vehicles to a
minimum. It simplifies the parking problem. Buses can often be used and are more comfortable
than troop carrying vehicles. Good traffic control and parking arrangements must also be made.
39. Adequate medical precautions must be taken to deal with casualties. In the event of
casualties it is important to collect evidence immediately, before everyone disperses. This will be
required for the subsequent inquiry. Recovery arrangements for bogged or broken down vehicles
must also be made.
ANNEX B
GLOSSARY OF TERMS USED IN EXERCISES
1. General Instructions. These will include all the staff duties and administrative details
which must be known by the formations, units and individuals involved in the exercise, in any
capacity.
2. Special Instructions. These are part of the exercise papers which, for reasons of exercise
security, are issued only to part of the forces participating, eg, instructions for the assembly of a
skeleton enemy force, or one of the sides in a two-sided exercise with troops.
3. General Idea. This gives both sides the general tactical setting.
4. Special Idea. In two-sided exercises there will be two Special Ideas issued, one for own
troops and one for the enemy. In one-sided exercises the Special Idea Enemy is replaced by
Instructions to Skeleton Enemy.
5. Narratives. These are used in TEWTs, telephone battles, war games, and sometimes in
signal exercises, to cover lapses of time which may occur between the various situations
presented in the exercise. Narratives should be realistic, short, relevant, and include the forces
available, the air situation and any new organizations.
6. General Outline. This is for the benefit of control and umpire staffs and gives the outline
of all the phases of the exercise.
7. Outline of Events. This is for control and umpire staffs and gives the events in outline
for the whole exercise with estimated timings for each phase. It is a more detailed breakdown of
the General Outline and forms the basis on which individual control briefs are written.
