    Default Combat Tracker Teams

    If you got info, photos, videos or stories about Combat Traker Teams, then please post them. They are likely new in Denmark.. 6 men teams(4 Visual trackers, Team leader and a radioman). I know that Dutch Korps Mariniers got them(and used them with success in Astan, US got them and lots of others.

    The RNLMC has had combat tracking capability since 2010ish i'd say. Multiple sources make reference to the first mainstream batch of combat tracking instructors coming online back then. The instructors were obviously meant to go on and teach the course to the wider Corps, but I haven't found much else yet. The Landmacht has 41 EARS(?) platoon, don't know how similar they are.
    PDF in Dutch about the first class of instructors.

    I did my visual tracking course in 97. When your job role is to seek out and close with the enemy, visual tracking should be a required skill.
