5-153. When visibility is poor, the following methods aid in control—

• Use of night vision devices.
• Infrared chemical lights.
• Leaders move closer to the front.
• The platoon reduces speed.
• Soldiers use two small strips of luminous tape on the rear of their helmet, allowing Soldiers behind them to see them from the rear.
• Leaders reduce the interval between Soldiers and units to make sure they can see each other.
• Leaders conduct headcounts at regular intervals and after each halt to ensure personnel accountability.
