General Situation: The Harvard regiment encamped on the night of July 12-13 at Biglerville (B-8) in hostile territory. The remainder of the brigade of which the regiment is a part is in camp 5 miles west of Biglerville. Problem I: At daylight, July 13, the regimental commander receives the following message from brigade headquarters: "It is reported that the enemy is in force near Heidlersburg. Move on Heidlersburg at once; locate the position of the enemy, and develop his strength. Reinforcements will be sent you, if necessary." This information is transmitted to all officers of the regiment. The First Battalion is ordered to move out at once as advance guard on Biglerville-610-582 road toward Heidlersburg. Major Dunn, commanding First Battalion, designates the first two platoons of C Company as advance party, and D Company and the remainder of C Company as support. Lieut. Gibbs, commanding the advance party, explains the situation to his non-commissioned officers, and then orders: "Sergeant Dow, take four men and move out on that road (indicating road to Heidlersburg) as point. The remainder of these two platoons will be the advance party and will follow you at 200 yards. I shall be with it. Move out." You are Sergt. Dow. How do you place your men, and what information and instructions do you give the point before you pass the orchard east of Biglerville? Situation 2: You are still Sergt. Dow.
