It is definitely not my strong point, any suggestions how I can do well on this? 2020-07-22T18:35:30-04:00 SPC Private RallyPoint Member 6128599

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Take all the time you need to plan. Make your land nav plan dummy-proof. Write it down step by step. <br />If it is day-into-night land nav, then try to get as many points as fast as you can, as close to the start point as possible. If it is night-into-day, then use the night time to get to the farthest point and work your way back as it gets lighter.<br />Obey the rules, or don&#39;t get caught. &quot;If you ain&#39;t cheatin&#39;, you ain&#39;t tryin&#39;. If you get caught, you don&#39;t deserve to be SOF.&quot; If someone yells at you, you may not have been caught yet, unless they can identify you or think they can.<br />Don&#39;t sit down to rest, or don&#39;t get caught. I&#39;ve seen guys get kicked out for sleeping when they had their points and were awake but the cadre thought they were sleeping.<br />Enjoy it. Some days can be gorgeous, and it&#39;s the only time you won&#39;t get smoked. Keep a canteen that you put all your sugars, salts, cerasports, and drink mixes with water. It&#39;s a good snack during land nav or any other time you&#39;re sucking.<br />Don&#39;t look at your compass backward.
