LET 3
1. What three type of contour lines are found on a map?
Index- heavy drawn line with its elevation given somewhere along it, every fifth contour line.
Intermediate- falls between index lines, finely drawn.
Supplementary- resemble dashes, show sudden changes in elevation of at least one-half the contour interval for that map.
2. An eight-digit grid coordinate will place you within how many meters of your location?
Eight-digit grid coordinate locates a point to within 10 meters.
Six-digit grid coordinate locates a point to within 100 meters.
Four-digit grid coordinate locates a point to within 1000 meters.
3. Explain the difference between an index contour line and a supplementary contour line shown on a map.
Answer from LET 3, question #1.
4. List four methods of controlling bleeding.
Direct pressure and elevation
Pressure bandage
Pressure points
Tourniquet
5. What are the three degrees of burns?
First degree- Least severe, injury to only the top layer of skin, reddening of the skin, mild swelling. Caused by brief contact with hot objects.
Second degree- Involves deeper layers of skin, causes skin to turn red and/or mottled. Caused by deep sunburn, prolong contact with hot objects.
Third degree- Deepest and most severe type of burn may look white or charred. Caused by immersion in extremely hot water, prolong contact with flames, and electric shock.
6. When is a tourniquet used to control bleeding?
Use a tourniquet only as a last resort when all other attempts to stop the bleeding fails.
7. On the command "Open Ranks, March" What are the actions of the third squad?
The third rank stands fast.
8. When drilling as a separate unit in a column formation what is the platoon leader's position?
When in column formation, post for the platoon leader is six steps to the left flank of and centered on the platoon.
9. What are the seven Army Values?
Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless service, Honor, Integrity, Personal courage
10. Can the "Seven Step Decision Making Process" be used to solve problems?
Yes, 1. Identify (recognize/define) the problem.
2. Gather information (facts/assumptions).
3. Develop courses of action (solution).
4. Analyze and compare courses of action (alternatives/solutions).
5. Make a decision; select the best course of action (solution).
6. Make a plan
7. Implement the plan (asses the results).
Index- heavy drawn line with its elevation given somewhere along it, every fifth contour line.
Intermediate- falls between index lines, finely drawn.
Supplementary- resemble dashes, show sudden changes in elevation of at least one-half the contour interval for that map.
