size=2>That is true - but most often the route step is used when a VERY
large distance is to be covered. At that point you'd not want to keep at 120
step march maintained, as it would seriously exhaust your troops. Route step
is not something you would attempt to manuver a formation with, just get
them to where they need to be without wearing them down</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>In reply to the route step vs a 120 beat
step...ground maybe covered as fast or faster depending on the
unit...the terrain available, cover and concealment and the type of
mission your unit is on. All these variables come into play as to
whether or not route step covers more or less ground than the standard
120 beat "in-step"
march.</FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
