Which of the following responsibilities is NOT associated with the PSG during movement?

The responsibility that is not typically associated with the Platoon Sergeant (PSG) during movement is conducting reconnaissance missions. The PSG plays a critical role in managing and supervising various aspects of the unit’s movement, including security and operational orders.

Conducting reconnaissance missions is generally the responsibility of designated scout teams or reconnaissance units specifically tasked with gathering intelligence about the area ahead or the enemy’s positions. While the PSG may oversee and guide the reconnaissance efforts, they do not conduct these missions themselves; instead, they ensure that the necessary preparations and supervision are in place for those who do.

On the other hand, supervising rear security, issuing specific operational directives such as paragraph 4 of the operation order, and maintaining security during halts are all direct responsibilities of the PSG. These tasks help ensure the safety and effectiveness of the unit during movement, reflecting the PSG’s role as a key leader in maintaining operational integrity and readiness.
