What is the positioning arrangement during the ammunition lift?

During the ammunition lift exercise, the counting Marine stands in front of the lifting Marine to ensure proper visibility and communication. This positioning allows the counting Marine to effectively monitor the number of repetitions performed, as they have a clear line of sight to the lift without obstruction. Additionally, standing in front facilitates audible communication, which is important for counting and ensuring the lifting Marine stays motivated and maintains proper form throughout the exercise. This setup ensures safety, as the counting Marine can observe the lifting Marine’s technique while also providing encouragement and timely feedback.
