size=2>Yes - route step is used on long road marches. I got very
familiar with it on the 20k marches we used to do. If you tried to cover
that in step, you'd want to die after the first 2
miles.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

face=Arial 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></BLOCKQUOTE></BLOCKQUOTE></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
