Figure F-9. Emplacement of Antitank Mines
When moving through a building, Marines must not pick up anything—food, valuables, enemy
weapons, or other items. Such items could be rigged with pressure devices that explode when
they are moved. Marines must be well-dispersed so that if a boobytrap explodes, the number of
casualties will be few. Many different types of mines and boobytraps could be encountered during
combat in built-up areas (Figure F-10).
a. The equipment commonly used to detect mines in clearing operations includes:
Mine detectors
Probes
Grappling hooks
Ropes
Explosives
Flak vests
Eye protection
Engineer tape.
