What is the vehicle placement sequence for a convoy?

• A. CC, LVC, GT, CLS, LZ, SEC, REC, ACC, GT
• B. GT, CLS, LVC, CC, LZ, SEC, REC, ACC, GT
• C. LVC, CLS, CC, GT, LZ, SEC, REC, ACC, GT
• D. GT, LVC, CLS, CC, LZ, SEC, REC, ACC, GT

Answer: (D)

The sequence tests how to place vehicles so command, security, and support work smoothly as the convoy moves. A well-ordered convoy starts with a lead vehicle that sets pace and navigates the route. Right after that comes the vehicle that provides immediate command and control for the front of the convoy, keeping the group coordinated and able to respond to threats or changes in plan. Close, layered security and a dedicated convoy commander follow to maintain protection and situational awareness as the formation advances. Next, having a vehicle focused on securing the landing zone or objective area helps ensure the convoy can safely approach or disengage at critical points. That is followed by continued security coverage, then a recovery vehicle positioned to reach and recover any disabled vehicle without breaking the flow of movement. A vehicle handling access control or route management sits in the middle, and the trailing lead vehicle closes the rear to guard against threats from behind and to maintain overall integrity of the formation. This arrangement keeps leadership and security upfront, secures important operational points along the route, and places recovery and rear protection where they can respond quickly without hindering movement. Other sequences tend to place key protective or support roles too far forward or too far back, which can weaken command, expose the convoy to threats, or delay recovery.
