Good to know

Reconnaissance forces function as either combat or combat support elements and may be part of heavy, medium or light forces depending upon their integral equipment. They will be an integral part of each of the three types of forces listed above. Their primary purpose is to gain information, usually on the enemy and the terrain. They support the intelligence combat function. Reconnaissance elements do not generally undertake intentional enemy contact to gain information (known as “fight for information”). They rely on stealth and undetected movement and surveillance to gain information.
