In moving to the front by the flanks of companies; 5. In marching to the front in small squares, either in line or checkerwise; 6. In changing front while using these different methods of marching; 7.
Have the first rank open; let the second be checkerwise; and let firing against cavalry be the only firing to be executed in line.

This is the fire of skirmishers in close formation. This same order includes instructions on target practice, etc.
There are, in fact, only five methods of forming troops to attack an enemy: l, as skirmishers; 2, in deployed lines, either continuous or checkerwise; 3, in lines of battalions formed in column on the central divisions; 4, in deep masses; 5, in small squares.
