I have a point on this. If someone says "Check Fire", that means stop firing. Not Check what you are shooting at and potentially keep shooting, but just stop.
And another little thing is a little drill we refer to as RTR:
Return fire
Take cover
Return appropriate fire.
Meaning that on contact, you fire a couple of rounds in the general direction, to give you enough chance to Take Cover. Once you are in cover you can properly assess the situation a bit safer, work out where the fire is coming from and then work out whether you need to unleash hell or call for a check fire (also known as Return Appropriate Fire). Being in cover gives you a little bit of breathing room to think properly.
