“Night infiltration course” was what they called it.
For us they decided to make it extra fun and not allow us to use NODs. Also could have been they didn't want them broken/lost/getting caught on the wire obstacles. Either way, made it less pleasant.
I'm trying to figure out how laying down is a good tactic if contact has been made.
Make yourself as small a target as possible. Cover and concealment is not a guarantee. You aren't always going to move through a wooded area with trees, brush, and elevation cuts to hide you from enemy fire. So the next best thing is to drop to your stomach and slither like a snake. The low crawl is so low you are often literally dragging your helmet along the dirt.
